Today, Karune returned to the forums after a lengthy absence. I've posted some of the more pertinent responses:

Source:
http://www.incgamers.com/News/17920/TheNewVoiceOfStarCraftIIsKerrigan


Karune regarding the rumored new Kerrigan voice actress:
Although I admire Incgamer's indepth reporting- this is one that you'll want to wait for an official announcement from us. With all aspects of the game, we want to make sure the fans get the most epic StarCraft II experience. Choosing voice actors too is no different, especially for such a notable character as the Queen of Blades

Karune! You're back! Are you here to stay and chat a while (till Blizzcon??) or are you just teasing us =[

BlizzCon has us all pretty busy over here, but there is definitely time for questions. We have lots to show you guys at BlizzCon! Should be lots of fun.

A Battle.net poster wrote:
I wish that included beta!

Glad to hear from u Karune, just your presence boosts moral around here like a million percent!!

There will be beta key opportunities surrounding BlizzCon as well. More info will revealed in time

A Battle.net poster wrote:
Oh good!! I'm so excited for Blizzcon I hope I'll get to see you there =D! I need to get a picture with you and Dustin! XD

You'll probably be able to find him at the signing booths- make sure you check when which devs will be there.


Karune on recent art changes:
As a FYI, several units got updates to their art, including the Zealot, which looks even more impressive than before. Keep an eye out at BlizzCon for all this new art

A Battle.net poster wrote:
I'm definitely not goin and I'm certainly not going to buy anything on pay-per-view.

Wasn't there a free stream (?, I forget), or should I just wait a couple days for fansite summaries?

There will be lots of ways to get information, including the fan sites as well. In addition to that, I hear Twitter isn't too shabby of a way to getting info too


Karune on the Starcraft 2 map editor:
On a side note, going along with the Galaxy Map Editor can do anything trend, I hear it may even be able to create a first person shooter style custom game Anyone miss those StarCraft paintball games? Our devs internally have already tried out some pretty clever side projects that have been quite successful.

A Battle.net poster wrote:
Sounds intense.

I wonder if it will be modifiable to the point of a third-person shooter?

Correction, I meant third-person, but honestly the only difference is where the player camera angle is put.


Of these, the new Zealot art sounds really cool; new art always excites me, since it's one of the few types of update that is tangible for someone unable to actually play the game. And, of course, the Starcraft 2 map editor continues to reveal itself as your one-stop destination for every conceivable type of custom game imaginable...and breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Nice, Blizzard sure has a way of building the excitement. Sadly I think they're going to announce a new WoW expansion before they announce anything big for Starcraft 2, but I'm really hoping they announce the beta and give out beta keys.

Good to hear them finally posting about sc2 though considering they completely skipped over it in the new PodCast.

Thuogh by the looks of it there will be a lot of new information for all three of their games this year. I really hope its not like last year (I think?) where they really didnt announce anything. Though Blizzard says they dont feel obligated to announce huge things every single year, but hopefully they decide to this time.

i'm guessing the beta key opportunity will be a announcement for a 2nd wave of fansite keys that was promised a few months back?
good luck have fun!

Dunno, 2nd wave keys were supposed to be AFTER the beta has started (I *think*).

... So, can the map editor be used to create a version of Diablo 2? I mean, will it allow us to create a custom interface with 20+ skills that each can be leveled up individually?

It's good that he has returned. That forum got to a point where there would be a post and/or reply every 2 minutes during normal busy hours -- when it should normally be about 1 per second.

Maybe the beta was supposed to have started by now (well, it was; according to Browder it's BNet that's dragging them so much), so they probably decided not to delay the second wave regardless of the delayed beta.
