In a sense, March 12th is the start of open beta?

I honestly dont want HotS to be released that soon. I mean, the beta is still a mess with so many unanswered questions. A summer release would be ideal imo

With Global Play coming, is there any reason to purchase the more expensive US HOTS, over something cheaper like a Russian or KW/TW option?

Yay!

Given the time I will spend on HotS if it's the same like I did in WoL, $40 is almost nothing.

Well personally I don't mind the prize since I know that I'll get more than 40 bucks of enjoyment out of it, but given that they said they'd prize it as an expansion I think it's way too much, I figured it'd be like 20-30 bucks.

$40...is this good?

EDIT: I voted no for the price, just for the hell of it and hoping blizz will lower it

Anyone know where it would be the cheapest place to pre-order the Collectors Edition?

I which they could separate the campaign and the single player so you could pay for what you want. It's like single player games that tack on a crappy multiplayer or as in sc2's case a multiplayer game that tack on a crappy single player.

Way too expensive for a few new units in multiplayer. Considering that the ladder got only little to no love from blizz in wol, why should it better in hots?

Seriously people complaining about the price? It's not like you can only buy the multi-player version of the game, that's more for the campaign than anything. 40$ In the scheme of things is shit all for how much entertainment the game will provide, that's about the same cost as 2 visits to the movies for me (3-4 hours of time consumption plus snacks). If it is too much for you, then you should get a job.

Movie tickets are $20 in Australia? Jesus.

edit: snacks? what kind of person buys food in a movie theater?

40$ for an expansion is ludicrous.
