At least it won't be as buggy as 75% of today's games upon release.

Yeah, I edited the title...

How could you deceive us like that Cingular? I thought you loved us!

**CingularDuality** · 06-29-2009, 05:53 AM

I'll be very disappointed if this game isn't out by xmas...

Nah. You'll be too busy playing Natural Selection 2 to care.

Just read LAN play is being taken out of starcraft.

Sad to see Blizzard treat the honest paying customer like dirt. But it is the trend nowadays.

PreOrdered. Can't wait for the beta to release...

Personally the no LAN thing doesn't bother me that much. Even when I played Starcraft, Battle.net was more appealing than playing LAN.

Depends, if you buy the game then I guess that shouldn't really bother you much, but if you can't access battle.net then you can't play with others if the LAN option has been taken away, which I must say will regret to say goodbye to.

The game will be awesome that is certain, question is, will it carry more awesomeness than SC(1). It was a bomb back in the days and it's really played a lot still, but the sequels never really made such an impact. The maps from what I've seen are great, visuals as well,... but I have a some suspicion still. Might be worth adding that I am one of the biggest StarCraft fans out there.

One of the great things about Starcraft the game spawn feature. Being able to set up a some computers at work so that we could play a game during office parties was really fun.

It also ended up creating multiple new sales since some of the people got hooked at wanted to play all the time.

I hope, but I doubt, you can still do something like that. If I want to play with my kids I don't want to buy three or four copies of the game.

I am guessing there will be some sort of LAN feature, just without the spawn feature, given to how every developer and publisher is paranoid about piracy these days.
