But I really want the beta out there so I can watch peoples vids whenever I want instead of waiting for press releases and BRs all the time... it gets a bit frustrating. | ||

Also, I think that one good thing that came from this, is that we have more time to watch our favourite players and leagues before a lot is changed with SC2. | ||

Just because they threw away the results of that time doesn't mean that time never happened. They worked on SC2 for a while, didn't like where it was going and started over, and worked on SC2 some more. 6 years is a lot more accurate than 3-4. You'd be right to say Blizzard spent 2-3 years on SC2's current codebase though. But the jettisoned original codebase has to be taken into account when talking about how long it's taking them to bring out SC2. | ||

They whet our appetite with promise of a sumptious cheesecake cooked by the verIy finest chefs, but tell us it is not ready; the raspberry layer still needs to be applied. Instead we are left with the same block of mouldy cheese that we have had in our fridges for some time. Albeit a tasty cheese it has become tedious, and we yearn for the sweetness of our cheesecakes. Basically blizzard need to stop showing us glimpses of what looks like a finished SC2. become quiet until such a time when the game is truly ready to be released. And then hype the game. The only thing that really scares me is the possibility of our dessert being served but to our horror we find that the chefs have made an awful mistake and mixed the recipe for jellied eel with the recipe for the cheesecake, and we have to return to the mouldy block of cheese in our fridges.

With all those great features blizzard will be providing us, 6 more months wont be that long so just do some more SC:BW until then. Patience will be rewarded | ||

Patience will be rewarded It is impossible to find any imbalance with the sparse sample numbers Blizzard has at their discretion. Sure, the obvious imbalances may get fixed, but we all know those don't account for the greatest % of imbalances in a game. Only with a large sample size can you get close to identifying an imbalance. /sigh As long as a person is working and making something, there will never be perfection, as humans ourselves are imperfect. So, no, waiting even longer does not equate to a better product. Seriously, this fallacy needs to be abruptly stopped. Most of the best games of all-time (subjective as that is), weren't worked on for nearly 7 years, let alone 4-5 years. | ||

The Total War series is a nice example for that. As are games like Stalker or Gothic. Lately im not even bothering buying a game right when it comes out. Might be different with SC2 since Blizzard seems to actually be bringing out a finished product. About the imbalances: Early Terran vs Zerg was completely unfavored for the zerg. Zerg werent able to break down a terran wall and the terran could just harass with reaper and follow up with vikings then expand and m&m&m. Tides seemed to be completely turned compared to BW, since the zerg needed to be very cautios in the early game. Mind you, this version is now up to 5 months old though. | ||
