where are you guys hearing this?

[no_clue]

who cares, 27 more days till release!!

[FiveDime]

Question: I heard that the beta starts again tomorrow, July 1st 2010. True/False?


sorry guys

I'll fix the Google translation, even if it's actually pretty good

Basically, we heard several different dates regarding Phase Two. We went from June 27th to July 1st and tomorrow we'll probably have a new one.
Just remember that all these dates are just speculations without an official confirmation from Blizzard.

We have no reason to hide our plans, you all know that Phase Two is coming anyway, we'll be more than happy to share with you the official date as soon as it will be available, don't worry!
I just don't want to create false expectations, I saw a lot of you being turned down after the "Phase Two in June!" rumor and I don't want that to happen again

I want me SC2 fix now! i have build order's to perfect!

[Graeme S]

I just opened up the beta for shits and giggles--it says "You are trying to log in with an unrecognized client".


Lame.

[illicitstylz]

you do know you can still play it offline right?

just play it against AI (very easy, easy, medium, hard, INSANE)

this way you can still work on build orders etc.

takes like 5 minutes to set it up

Yay placed bronze 1v1. Man I suck.

what's your build order?

For Toss:
9 Pylon.
10 Gate
11 Gas
- Zealot
12 Cyber
- Zealot
- Warp
- Stalker
15 Gate
etcetc

Then about 1 minute later while I'm still macro-ing, I get attacked or something with m+m or ling+roach.

Do you leave your zeals at the ramp? I'd suggest pressuring their base since you're fast 2 gating from that build.
Send the first zeal built to base to harass, reinforce with the next 2 zeals.

Change unit production as needed ( aggressive, 1 stalker more zeals. Expo/passive, sentry + stalker to force field block the ramp9hokes )

This will allow your zeals to delay their rush and give you more build time since your two zeals can't stand up two bunch of marines or lings/roaches but you can if you attack when they're producing units one by one isntead of a larger cluster

I go for macro builds, and never really harass.
This is a replay of a Game I had earlier with Metal.

I went for blink Stalkers, got owned, then tech switched up to Stalker+Colossi.
Not my best game, but a win overall. I was distracted since my friend was on his way over to pick up something and I wanted to be "safe" which is why I built my army up, when I had tons of time to tech up/harass.

This is how I play Zerg.

I suck... so I don't know how I won these to be honest. I stick to 2 base until I realize that I'm down to one mineral patch in my first base.

[quasi]

I really enjoy the team game even though it's not really the way the game was really designed. Pretty much all I play is 2v2, 3v3 and the odd 4v4. Now my gripe is idiots on your own team. I could careless if you suck who am I to tell someone they blow nuts when I'm not that great myself. What I can't stand is people who tell me what to build or how to move my units or are just plain fucking anoying.

Tell me how to move my units = Me killing your bases and leaving.
Taking my expansion after I clear it = Me killing your bases and leaving.
Me not like you because your annoying and won't shut up = Me killing your base and leaving.

I kill my own partner probably 10% of the time, I really don't give a fuck.

[AzNightmare]

^ hahahaha

Yeah, I have to say, I don't encounter too many people like that when I played SC1.
Is it that bad in SC2?

The game might have been the most balanced for 1v1 play, but I wouldn't say
playing 2v2 or 3v3 is out of the norm. I have the most fun playing in teams with
my friends so I'm guaranteed not to have retards doing the above annoying things you've listed.

1v1 is intense, and if I'm not in the mood, I won't have fun playing those.

I just pre-ordered my copy today.
How does pre-ordering work? I never pre-ordered anything before.

Am I guaranteed to get it the first day it's out? Or am I on this huge priority list?
And I'll get a call to pick it up whenever it's in stock kind of thing?

This tourney is for everyone in every division.

We are just trying to show case the local SC2 community so everyone is welcome to play.
Their will be good players and bad players, but it will just be fun in general.

We VSgaming is going to hookup additional hours to peoples accounts if they already have them as prizes aswell.

for people who are interested Blizzard released their new SC II: Wings of Liberty site which can be found here...

http://beta-us.battle.net/sc2/en/

The new forums are AWESOME in my opinion and the site is only in "beta phase" with lots more goodies on the way. I also like how it show's your avatars and achievements once you log in.

Also for the people who prefer digital copies blizzard has released the "pre-sale" for digital copies where you can download the client NOW and then on July 27th at 10 AM finish the registration process and play ASAP. I'm going to go the digital way as I pre-ordered from BB online but with shipping who knows when it will arrive... this way I will be guaranteed to be able to play on the 27th.

No, not from what I can see.

Well since everyone includes "me" and I am buying the digital copy you're incorrect.

I hate boxes and cd's and would rather have everyone online ready at my finger tips. From the SC 2 sites I visit like Team Liquid it seems like this will be a pretty big success for Blizzard especially for people who can't get out to retail stores.

I believe the cost of the game is $5 cheaper then retail as well.

[AzNightmare]

Wait, I don't understand what you guys mean by buying the physical copy and
using the digital copy.

Don't they both do the same thing, except one comes with the box and one doesn't?

What's the difference? What do you mean by buying the box version and using the
downloaded version?

[AhXian]

^
buying the box version means... going to eb and buying the box with the cd and everything
downloaded version means ur buying it online and then download the game, like steam

there is not difference in term of game. some ppl perfer having a physical copy of the game, others don't.

[604Sparda]

Blizzard usually requires you to put in the CD/DVD to start the game.
I guess you dont need it with the downloaded copy? If so, they better not make you do it with the retail copy. Its just a pain to have to keep the cd in there all the time.

[_Hotsauce_]

^
Or just a CD key...like when you download games you've purchased through B.net....
They have in the PAST required a CD, but not for awhile.

[SpuGen]

All of Blizzards games have stopped having requirements for the CD for a while..
I think it started wayy back when WC3 was out, and they released a patch for all Bnet games to make it not require a full CD to play.

[Mr.HappySilp]

^^ but the the SC2 special edition you get a lot more. Like a Keychain USB, special SC2 pet for WoW, books, SC1 etc etc.... in a very nice box.

BTW I pre-order the special edition but might just get the reg version instead. Any interested in buying a special edition? At cost of course.

[ForbiddenX]

^Same here, I'm having second thoughts of getting the collectors edition. Doesn't seem all that worth it now :S I was kinda hyped about it too but I guess I'd rather use the extra $$$ towards something else haha (like a new camera >.>)

But I have it preordered at EB and I'll pick it up for anyone whos interested or will do a trade + cash on your end for the regular edition.

Ooooooooooooh my god. Played vs a terran on blistering sands tonight, he GG'd after about 15-20 mins but then turtled himself in and didn't leave.

WC3 had like 9 Missions each race.
9x4 = 32. And Warcraft 3 took quite a while to play through.

It's a few missions short, but goddamn. It's gonna be a huuuuuge game. JUST FOR TERRAN.

The Zerg and Protoss ones aren't even close to comming out anytime soon. SC2 is gonna be HUGE. I'm expecting to wait another 2-3+ years before finishing the entire storyline.

All Future Shops (except Quebec I believe) are doing midnight launches so that's another option for ya.

I know as of today, EB Games @ Metro was still taking pre-orders and guaranteed that everybody on the pre-order list will get their copy during midnight launch because they haven't reached the pre-order cut off number yet.

Cambie BBY & Metrotown FS are two of their busiest locations in the GVR so I expect them to be getting just as much stock (if not more)

[SpuGen]

I pre-ordered at the Pacific Center EB Games.
I Figured less people would buy it there, so there was a bigger guarantee for me... then after I walked out, I realized I just bought it in one the the busiest malls in Vancouver.

[TRDood]

just bought it, had it for about 2 hours.. played 2 games. go for FS, don't bother with BB because a lot of people wanted that mouse.. so there were at least 200 people lining up (and that is in Ottawa, so vancouver must be worse)

really reminds me of how rusty i am.. haha

i had a hard time beating the comps.. LOL

FS i went to, I went at 11:35pm, and I was about 50th person in line. Got out of FS at 12:30am. Now I should sleep cuz it's almost 3am here...

I guess I am just old then, because to me it makes more sense to buy online, and start playing it at 10am on Tuesday, rather than waiting in line for hours, only to get home at 1am and play for what... a few hours then go to bed, get up at 10am and start playing again?

I think I just hate lining up though.. I have never lined up to buy anything before.
