Jask you moron, this holiday? for real?

Even if it's released this year or next year, it won't be balanced until 2010.

All that's left is fixing some ugly graphics (such as the nomad, which is currently in progress), balance testing, creating the campaign (which may be close to complete), and some aesthetic elements such as tilesets. That sounds like more than 5% remaining.
On top of that, I would bet that they have a private beta session going on as we speak. They don't.

You are trying to compare today's Blizzard with Blizzard from 12 years ago. Blizzard is much more organized and punctual since they have become a powerful company as opposed to their 1990's start-up like phase.

did you really read my post?
1) Starcraft: Ghost was as recent as 3-4 years ago 2) I'm talking about their PATCH to BW that would enable WGT to start the ladder, not the game itself (this was even last year).
I'm talking about Blizzard now, not Blizzard 12 years ago. AcrossFiveJulys, have you even played SC2 ever? It's not even close to be 90% done where the shit do you even get your statistics from, lol.

since the macro/micro is fixed, game is ready to be released/.
|
Anyone who thinks the game is coming out this year is clearly retarded. Blizzard has stated we will be getting more info on the single player campaigns in the new year. So that clearly puts the release date far into 2009 at the earliest.

Actually it's out all over the place, not just Korea. I think the site that got the leaked copy of it is sc2beta.net or something. A bot in Brood War USA-13 told me so.
|
I bet it'll be out when windows 7 reaches public beta.
|
They need more time to perfect the new, additional 4th race. (I really hope there's a 4th race in sc2!!!! Sorry sc purists.)
|
that definitely is not happening
|
SC2 will come out with Duke Nuke 'em Forever.
|
SC2 is going to end like ghost i predict.... hopefully not tho.
|
lol no... O_O , but it won't be out for awhile.
|
eh. games come out in the summer or during christmas season.
June 30 2009 was my call when the came was announced... I'm sticking by it (optimistically) for now.
|
In all honesty I dont think it will be out be4 2011.

So I'm not the only one who wasn't going crazy at the SC2 and D3 announcements. What a relief!
I'm kinda getting excited about Aion, though - everyone who was frothing at the mouth at the initial announcement 3 years ago already forgot about it!
|
I think summer 2009 is a good call. IMO, beta will be ready in feb/mar 2009 simply because the single is going to be mostly set by this december.
Feb/mar beta and july release is the same as WC3 RoC.
|
Will it be out before London Olympics 2012?
