I would almost guarentee that if Terran or Zerg had been given the warp in mechanic, people wouldn't complain about 'imbalance' or 'overpoweredness' of it.
I think a lot of people are still stuck in a SC:BW mindset when it comes to talking about SC2. I think most will acknowledge that protoss is generally the strongest/easiest race when played at the general low level (compared to even the korean amateur scene) that most foreigners play at. So when something is announced for protoss, people seem to think 'oh, more protoss imba, just like in SC:BW'.
Of course they're on crack, because very few have even played the game yet, and even those who have can only give general, vague comments since whatever they played will be vastly outdated by now.

i really hate the style of commentating in this. they're like auctioneers. and they dont say anything interesting Well, they are trying to sell the game to people who never played SC before while also trying to show us the game has enough depth to reach a level similar to SC. Listening to Dustin's commentary at Blizzcon, I felt as if he took every opportunity to point out to us "Hey, micro still exists, look! This is like regular Starcraft!".
So true
Some people were getting the feeling that because Dustin Browder came from EA, he was going to ruin SC2. So i guess he was trying to show us that he knows wat sc is..
I dont mind the commentary. fun to listen to. he good at commentating battles between units, but u cant compare him to peeople like Artosis, Tasteless, Klazart, Cholera.. u know the guys.

Don't know if it has been said before, but I kinda know what the next BattleReport will be about. If you've looked at the second part of the gameplay-trailer which was shown at BlizzCON '08 (http://www.gametrailers.com/player/41337.html), you can see that it is actually a slice of BattleReport #1.
Now if you look at the first part of the BlizzCON-video (http://www.gametrailers.com/player/41334.html) you can predict what happens in one of the next videos...

Man stop bumping this thread, you are getting my hopes up every time when I skim through the topics.

Actually the next BattleReport is supposed to be showcasing the new macro mechanics they talked about in Q&A 48.

I was not too excited about SC2 but I must admit it looks good Even though I think that sometimes there are too many colors at the same time [specially in battles] which makes it little bit confusing.
And IMO buildings are too big for that map... I like the fact that in SC:BW you need to build 8-10 Gates or Factories to keep up your unit production, at least in this map it looked totally impossible to build more than 5 gates for toss and 3 barracks and 2 factories looked pretty crampy on terran side...
but on top of everything we need to keep in mind that is still an ongoing work and in general I would say I look forward to SC2 :D

Actually, I'm far more hyped for DoW II than SC II right now and if this two games would be released simultaneousely I'd definitely go for DoW.

You haven't played DoW II yet.
After playing a bit, I wouldn't buy it even if there wasn't SCII. It's like WCIII for dummies in sci-fi setting :3 Disappointing to be honest.
Single player could be interesting though.

I've been playing WH40K tabletop for quite some time, I loved the DoW series (up until SoulStorm which sucked) and I loved WC3.
There is no way I couldn't be hyped for it, will see how it works tomorrow.

3 more hours, which means 1am for me = tomorrow.
And I have no idea how long the download/install will take.
