Starcraft 2

[Fuzz]

Holy shit I wish I got into the Beta! I've been waiting for this game for more than 10 years!

They've got some cool videos of people playing, and yesterday, there were tons of people live streaming it.

Something tells me it wont have the charm of the first one.

you werent alive when the first one came out

[rtil]

as much as i like rts i never play enough to be able to compete at all in online play
sc2 is going to reflect that x100 with its avid fanbase
also i think it's stupid that resource gatherers still have to walk back to a base to drop them off, there's much better ways of gathering resources now that don't require that kind of needless micromanagement

As you know all the details of my life. (Waiting for reference to that joke nobody gets.)

i have watched NONE of the videos on blizzards site showing all the new units and abilities

[texas]

none of the new units or abilities that ive seen have been particularly interesting but if youd like to you could enlighten me

[Fuzz]

I just played the Beta today. Oh my god... it's great. I wish I had gotten in! The new units are a lot of fun, and it's just really feels good taking 1 Thor into a base and raping it. But that's just because the only difficulty available now is Very Easy.

So seriously fun stuff. They even have the funny responses like they did in the original!

Only if I can crash in through the windows

Their ranking system puts players of equal skill in the same ladder, so you'll never be matched with one of those hard core Koreans.

Also, they have a friend system so you can party up and play with friends. You can also talk to friends playing WoW, so you can still talk to me Billy.

you have to plug your computer into the phone line and then put in your friend's phone number
