Q: Is there going to be a beta?

A: Yes

Q: Is it going to be a campaign beta, or a multiplayer beta?

A: Just multiplayer.

Q: How long do you think it will be?

A: It should be about 3-5 months; if I had to guess it's going to be more on the smaller side.

Fuck yes.

I'm wary about the "Marketplace." Anybody that copies something Apple or Facebook does is low on ideas or is giving into short term hype. It's annoying.

------

And sure I didn't roll over Brutal in 1 day or something, but I'm fairly sure I finished the campaign on Brutal in the first week, and had all the achievements (and Kerrigan) by week 2. I think I might have left Brutal of the final mission alone without trying it for a week or so, but didn't take all that long once I sat down and tried it.

Definitely not the hardest single player game I've played. Not by a long shot.

------

And you can only change your name for free once, iirc? Or has that changed? That's hardly good clan support.

there should be a warning about spoilers at the beginning of this article. It does spoil some of the surprise of playing the campaign. Would've preferred to not read part of it but oh well ... i guess it's not a huge deal

uh
it's about the single player of the expansion, what were you expecting? are you serious?

Nice write up. I'm wondering if competitive play with transfer to HS for beta or will it wait for release to be more stable and balanced?

Any tournament that has begun as WoL, or begun qualifiers as WoL, will stay WoL. Any tournament which is yet to start or start its prelims, will switch.

That is my guess anyway. For WC3 you could see them using the original game for an extra year because they had already announced/started prelims etc, but most tournaments switched pretty quickly IIRC.


How long do you think after release will tournaments transfer to HS?
I doubt there will be major tournaments in Beta.

Nothing new about it this week, that I know of. But the usual is to go to your battle.net profile options and mark the checkbox about interest in blizzard beta games. Oh, and maybe blizz will give some beta keys to TL to distribute like in wol

I would have to guess you get in by invite or pre-order, just like WoL.

When I first saw her face, I thought she was Tosh. She looks so unlike Kerrigan now. I really hope they change the model.

Kerrigan looked pretty white in the other pics.

Then again, she was green back in WoL.

Plus, I hardly expect rebuilding the Swarm is going to be the entire focus of the campaign. Kerrigan is a key piece of the overarching plot(the Dark Voice and Hybrids), and I'll be shocked if the Prophecy doesn't pop up later on in the campaign.

Probably will be like the SC2 beta where you can opt-in, beta key give-a-way from gaming sites like TL, and a key in this year's BlizzCon goodie bag.
