I'm curious what they've got, as they basically said "oh yeah a lot of our ideas sucked from the first preview so we scrapped them" (paraphrased).... and they made an air unit for protoss to help with mutas but now protoss doesn't need and air unit. Oh and Zerg seemed to have the most minor changes and the damn expansion is supposed to be for Zerg-focused....lol IMO the last preview felt contrived save for a couple of items.... to me it felt like they said "OK we need to make an expansion lets get something out" rather than some developers having some insightful ideas ahead of time....Blizzard is the best so maybe that's why its taking so long.

Blizzard plans to release HoTS in the future. Before release, there will be a beta.

Therefore, upcoming beta. This does not mean tomorrow, this does not even mean this year. Upcoming just means sometime in the future.

I haven't watched much of the HotS content that is available now since much is still probably going to change. This, however, might be a bit more stable. Will be fun to see some more of it, at least.

Well blizzard did expect to release two major titles in 2012, and with diablo 3 releasing next month and the WoW expansion around the corner too i didn't expect it to come out in 2012 anyway.


But they also said one expansion per year?


For sc2? No, one every 2 year was the resolution.

Id also love to see some HOTS pro showmatches. Especially with some very clever and creative players.


A chance for TLO to shine once more perhaps He was so creative early on!


Exactly my thoughts!

eg White-Ra versus TLO. That would be such a awesome match

I'm so glad they'll be livestreaming some of the HoTS action. I'll be looking forward to seeing some of it in action!

Let Flash, et. al., play in the Open bracket. Betcha they make it far. . . . . Seriously, can't wait to see the ENTIRE Starcraft professional universe consolidate. It's going to be a wild ride for the next year or so. Then, the elephant will slay us all. . . .

Wasn't the last news of HotS basically "we don't know what we're doing and all our ideas were bad"

What is there to even beta test at this point?

Yes, every game is basically done when it's in alpha, right?
