by preordering it will we get beta keys like what happened for wol??
EDIT: the guy 2 posts above me asked the same question

This is the earliest pre-order news. Details like this will come later on and are not currently known.

Anyway we can get the collectors edition through this, I would like to support TL but if not i'll have to do it another way.

Yes we will also have a referral to the collectors edition when it is out. Currently only the normal version is available for pre-order and it is only for the U.S.

TL is great, but 60 $ is indeed redicolous. Blizzard anounced, that HotS will not cost the same as WoL, cause it's an expansion and it will cost like an expansion.

Nice job, making your first post on this site complaining about Blizzard without reading more than the first post. This is a random pricetag amazon put on it, it has nothing to do with Blizzard. Hots is not even done yet, it doesn't have a price.



thanx, i can decide alone what i post. And i'm not complaining about Blizzard at all, you must be retarded not to have learned reading yet.

User was warned for this post

Edit:

"The price may vary near to release date" makes it sounds like the $60 was decided on by Blizzard and that there is only a small chance that it will change. So in other words, it's a somewhat confusing disclaimer

maybe not since it might get chanced, blizzard can just ask 60, right?

also all these messages helps the people at blizzard decide that they do NOT want to give it 60 euro price tag

we can't afford 60 euro for hots 60 for d3 and 30 for mist of pandaria:D

Will there be an offer in the future where you pre-order the game and get a beta key?

[Question] if the game is going to be shipped early perhaps or whatever so i receive on the day the game is released, which shipping option should i choose. Can i choose free shipping 5-8 day? or does that mean im gunna get a few days later? When i ordered Wol from TL i got it on time and either way if i had to wait a day i wouldn't be heart broken, but a week might be a little harder

Holy shit, i didn't think Hots was this close to being released.

Given i'm assuming that if pre-orders can already take place, that its no more than 4 months away.

...the more i think about, the more i think that my assumption might be wrong.

Even if this doesn't ship with the Amazon price, the game has a fully-fleshed out campaign and story that would be entirely worth the price of a full game (which it practically is).

Remember we are talkin about blizzard time. While time in sc2 may be like 33% faster in real like its like 33% slower

HotS costing the same as WoL, despite being an expansion, and with the changes being announced at Blizzcon and already receiving community uproar?

I simply cannot be a buyer of SC2 anymore. This game has gone to shit, and is only in the business of money. I am baffled that they would charge me $59.99 for an EXPANSION. Best of luck to HotS buyers though.

You are mad at a company for doing the primary purpose of a company as in making money? and ITS AN ESTIMATE!!!!!! Maybe we can put that part in bold??

This estimate is a high-end estimate by Amazon. Based on the info Blizzard has in their FAQ it is likely to be less.

I didn't even know about TeamLiquid when I bought WoL way back when, and I imagine it's the same for many of us here.

TL is going to make millions of ESPORTS dollars with this referral. Fighting!

(Also, fingers crossed they will have some sort of arrangement for TW)

Guys, calm down. Amazon is listing $60 as the max price and as Blizzard stated, it will probably be lower (guessing $40) since it's an expansion.

It's funny because Wings of Liberty can be found at $45 sometimes.
I know $60 isn't the final price, but in my opinion it should be under $30.
Better than TeamGas. Better than TeamSolid. Not even close to TeamLiquid. TeamPlasma. http://youtube.com/plasmasc

Gonna wait until Gamestop does something so I can get a beta key.

Also it's probably going to be $50. BW was $40 I think so that's $53 in today's dollars according to an inflation calculator.
