Please don't run beta tournaments, please, the balance will be completely off. If there is please wait until it about to be released.

They can still be run for fun, not only that but it would be a good way to publicize any obvious flaws so that Blizzard can work on them (remember there were Sc2 Beta tournaments and it was fine, no major disasters occurred)

what is there to say? either its good or its bad, but it is coming, like why hate, why love, we cant comment on it yet.
Whats for sure is: when its released, wild shit will happen.
Another year of waiting wouldnt hurt, but we cant stop the rain can we?
good or bad, blizzard has the ability to make me everything from ignite to setting me in a mood of utter apathy.

Well Im still not that optimistic. Weeks later could be 2,3,4 or even 12 weeks. I remember the other beta and wtf how long did it take since the "its really close" to the actual beta release so....Im not putting money in that people get to play the beta in late june/early july.

This time around I'm only going to get excited when it actually starts. I still have a feeling that, at this rate, my kids will be playing LotV at release date.......

Rushing? Their original time line was 18 months after wings of liberty which was jan 2012. They're already months behind their schedule. Doesn't seem like they're rushing anything to me.


Welllll.. we know that when Blizzard says "18 months", they usually really mean 81 months.

I would personally bet on 81 weeks. Just relax and wait till whenever they actually release it. =)

Was hoping for a major revamp of Protoss (in particular warp gates). So far HOTS is just a few extra units.

Poor form by Blizzard.


a major revamp? why the hell would they do that

not poor form, just standard form.

Why do I have the strangest feeling that as of late June I'm going to be going on the largest rage spree in history when I see the piece of shit that Blizzard hands to us on a silver platter?

I really hope I'm wrong. Please actually fix the game play issues, don't just add in gimmick units. This isn't C&C....
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly's a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

I just cannot wait for HotS to come out. Maybe, the BW pros will switch? ;D

Probably just like every other Blizzard beta; no keys, your account just gets flagged for access and you get an e-mail.

That would be the perfect time to do so. All the BOs and strats will have to be figured out from scratch.

Thank you so much. I am really scared Terran is just Transformers in the SC universe. Battle Hellion? Really? Thats what Blizzard came up with?

If they keep those units from Blizzcon then it is settled, SC2 IS just as lame as C&C.

hahaha love the negativity on this forum. It's actually astonishing that when we get news that HOTS beta is coming out soon, people say it's a bad thing lol. Chances are these same people would be complaining if Blizzard said beta wasn't coming out for another year. Guess some people are just negative and cynical by nature.

A Hots Beta this Summer would be nice, but I dont realy believe it, till its started. More Possible is, that they will start a friend and family Beta in autumn.
