Important stuff - you are still going to have it, just be patient. But by not giving Blizzard money now you send a warning that you might not end up buying their game - even if you know that you will in the end. But if you preorder - it tells them: do whatever you want, you already have my money. | ||

Or any of the other old RTS games Blizzard still sells that you do not currently own. This strategy worked great with Microsoft and EA. If you want the RTS genre to cease to exist the best strat is to spend $0 in the genre...another great strat that has been working flawlessly since 1981. | ||

For like the 5 of us who aren't in the beta yet. ;__; I'm actually not in beta because i didn't have an active account in top 20% of the HOTS ladder when they gave those people beta. Aside from that.. they basically stopped doing invite waves? I didn't really see any chat about it. Glad to have a buy-in option with pre-order - £30 is a good price for all of sc2 and i'd rather the deluxe edition be ~20-35% more, but 1.5x the price (£45) is still alright considering i'd use the sc2 skin and probably eventually the heroes of the storm mount | ||

Invites are still going out! | ||

If you already own the standard edition, you can buy the Digital Deluxe content for a reduced price (will display at checkout). | ||

Cool, just not to me then  They said it was influenced by your HOTS activity, but i have not played HOTS seriously for a long time nowi figured LotV would be $60 USD because its a stand alone product. they did this giant long beta and are only asking $40 USD, and its not an expansion that requires a different purchase.... ATVI is going to make fuck all on this. this makes it even easier for them to push aside Starcraft and RTS like it doesn't exist. if the retail box copy is also $40 USD then just wow. my how the RTS genre has fallen. u get onto the ladder and a campaign for just $40. And here is a perfect example that people will complain about literally anything. Lower price is good for population, an rts that's alive for 5 more years instead of just 2 is one that will make more money | ||

It certainly seems like they are gearing up the PR machine with all the stuff being released. Incontrol is at Blizzard HQ, I would imagine to play some of the early campaign missions and provide feedback. I'm starting to get hyped for this. Although, I would like to see some more radical changes in the Beta. | ||

It's the last post on page 2. I figure that it'd clear up some confusion.
