Remember you can pre-order your copy through the TL store and help support Team Liquid! It's also an easy way to get a beta key!

I'm slightly confused about the fuss over the pricing. Aren't PC expansions usually priced around $40? and full games $60? I was under the assumption it's always been that way. What was the pricing of BW when that first came out compared to Starcraft vanilla?

Edit: Also I'm pretty sure almost two years ago when Blizzard announced Heart of the the Swarm and Legacy of the Void they said that they are 2 expansion packs and will be priced accordingly to expansion packs. So Blizzard's been saying the same thing for 2 years, but now it's announced and half the people on here are all "OMG $40 WTF"

When you purchase HotS are you just paying for the campaign or are you paying for both campaign and multiplayer access? I remember seeing something saying that the online won't be affected by HotS and that they will just give players who currently have WoL a huge online update.

The 15$ version of WoL in mainland china can be upgraded to HoTS for free......

I had bought a Taiwan version and had to buy an European version since I came to France from China... Now....
Hence,"Like a Virgin."

Just as WoL
if you buy HotS u have access to all the new features.
I hope people stop bitching about how 40 bucks are too much for a few new units.
The campaign etc is included ofc.

Doesn't change the fact that the reason you pay 40 dollars is also for the engine, online compatibility, etc. The units are a very small edition and so is the campaign in that respect. It's an expansion, blizzard has never charged full price for an expansion until activision merge.

Regardless I'm sure full release price will be cheaper and i believe i paid 60 for WoL though 40 shoulda been the price of the game not the expansion in my opinion. Unfortunately the market doesn't work the same as it used to, and i still spent about 200 on BW cause of losing cd's and keys so can't complain with digital downloads haha.

So how exactly are they distributing these beta keys... I know that it comes through e-mail but is it random? I pre-ordered on the day the news broke out about it and still haven't received any key. I even canceled and re-pre-ordered out of anxiety @_@. I can't help but get all fidgety when people are getting their keys left and right.

EDIT: Oh shit it was in my junk mail, fuck me. Now I have 2.

If the campaign was a small addition then the WoL campaign must have been irrelevent. Games arent 40$ anymore or even 50 because they cost a lot more to make then they use to so prices went up.

Nope, only amazon.com at the moment. You can still get the beta key apparently (although I am still waiting on mine)
