- Omek, on 06/29/2008, -3/+351Starcraft II and Diablo III....does it get much better than that?
My life for Auir! - JoemcC00L, on 06/29/2008, -3/+278My wife for hire!
- muniak, on 06/29/2008, -3/+169Starcraft II is the longest lasting foreplay ever.
- Koush, on 06/29/2008, -6/+160Finally, a real use for the overlord.
Does this sound familiar? create 25 overlords, send them to the extreme corner of the map. - pprovo1, on 06/29/2008, -8/+150I had a dream about Startcraft II last night...the graphics were awesome.
- Brad324, on 06/29/2008, -2/+126serves you right for marrying your mom.
- hokie47, on 06/29/2008, -0/+103I just started to play starcraft again. Still a great game. The funny thing is when I was 14 my mom would nag me to stop playing, but now it is my wife. I can't win.
- Cerius, on 06/29/2008, -0/+91Psh..you've never tried the blackout method?
Destroy enemy's air defenses and then totally cover their base with overlords. They can't see their base and they can't build. - UtopiaInTheSky, on 06/29/2008, -2/+71Does it get any worse than having to deal with the torture of waiting? Why do they announce these games years in advance, it only makes it more painful. :(
- winampman2, on 06/29/2008, -2/+68Dke Nukem Forever is more like blue balls.
- pennstatephil, on 06/29/2008, -0/+66I know! I'd rather the announcement go like this:
"WE BRING YOU... STARCRAFT 2 (or diablo 3, enter any game here)"
*crowd erupts*
"Oh, and by the way? It comes out Monday."
*crowd dies* - Senturion, on 06/29/2008, -1/+64A release date would be nice.
- ligyron, on 06/29/2008, -1/+60Noob. Overlords detect invisible players, are good for scouting areas, and can also carry units. They are often central to a zerg's winning strategy
- BugMeNot2, on 06/29/2008, -1/+58It's vespene gas, you larva.
- Vodd9, on 06/29/2008, -1/+53Stupid money maps...
- UltraDavid, on 06/29/2008, -0/+50"They didn't want the game to too heavily emphasize micromanaging units. They want players to have time to deal with the macro issues of resources, expansion and strategy. So they designed most units to be simple movers and shooters, not like the more complex units of Warcraft 3."
I love the strategy of a good rts game, but I don't like the usual emphasis on micromanagement, so this is awesome news for me. - drbadass, on 06/29/2008, -0/+50they're just busy constructing additional pylons.
- drpaidout, on 06/29/2008, -1/+48I'm going on leave without pay when SC 2 comes out
- hadak, on 06/29/2008, -7/+54It sounds like they fixed my biggest gripe about Warcraft 3: heroes.
- funktimus, on 06/29/2008, -2/+43What do you think he means that Battle.net will become a premiere online gaming service when SC2 is released. I'd be really disappointed if you have to start paying to play on BNET.
- paidhima, on 06/29/2008, -1/+41My feelings exactly. What I enjoyed most about Starcraft was that I felt like a battlefield commander rather than a unit babysitter. I like the tech and resource management aspect, and the map advantage strategy. But when it comes to combat, I like my little buddies to pull their own weight without me wiping their chins and making sure they're wearing mittens and a warm jacket at all times.
- inactive, on 06/29/2008, -1/+36I'd actually make use of my Overlords. I'd take one to scout out the enemy and find his base and keep it there while he built up, and then use another to find the farthest empty space and build a second base, and a third if I had the time.
They're actually pretty damn useful. - BMANZZS, on 06/29/2008, -1/+35It's "need a light?"
- IVIrMP3, on 06/29/2008, -3/+37Duke Nukem Forever...
- Setreal, on 06/29/2008, -0/+30Well it was only three years between the announcement of WOW and its release. Diablo 2 was about the same lag between announcement and release. That puts us at...right about June 2010. *kills self*
- bencho, on 06/29/2008, -2/+31"No Hero for you!"
YES! I am greatly relieved with that segment! I never got into WarcraftIII because of the damn heroes. It was just too annoying to have to take care of one unit. I would have been devastated if they did that to SCII but I am so happy that that part of gameplay will remain unchanged! - sn0wright, on 06/29/2008, -3/+32You know WOW is pretty much the reason why Blizz can fund all these new games that will come out (eventually), perhaps even Warcraft 4.
- Shadow250, on 06/29/2008, -2/+30Power overwhelming!
- AzureRise, on 06/30/2008, -1/+28BLUE BALLS OF STEEL!?
- Aquabat, on 06/29/2008, -3/+30Sigh, over the next few years, I'm going to devolve into the humans from WALL-E. Thanks Blizzard.
- sgvprelude, on 06/29/2008, -0/+26So when the ***** is this suppose to be released? I've been waiting for like 10 damn years.
- Technohamster, on 06/29/2008, -6/+30What about starcraft ghost?
...it could still happen... - inactive, on 06/29/2008, -2/+26For Nerzul... I mean for Aiur
- iizh, on 06/29/2008, -0/+24I dugg him for the same reason.
- inactive, on 06/29/2008, -3/+26Nuclear launch detected!
- soupdawg30, on 06/29/2008, -3/+26Damn I hope they keep the Blackhole ability. It looked pretty freakin cool. Maybe overpowering though.
- nerdherder, on 06/29/2008, -0/+22Of course they will keep it balanced. They are not retarded. This is Blizzard we are talking about.
- DoTheFandango, on 06/30/2008, -0/+22"where's the ghost where's the ghost where's the ghost where's the--"
boom. - mentallyinhell, on 06/29/2008, -0/+22And then keep creating them once you've reached your limit so you hit the map max.
- Seth024, on 06/29/2008, -1/+202009?
- kappuru, on 06/29/2008, -0/+18Yeah, I'm all for not having my goliaths dancing around like idiots, but I still hope there's micro for some units in the game. Taking out 20 zealots with 2 vultures was always fun.
- elrac, on 06/30/2008, -0/+17More like "Nucle Nu Nu Nuclear launch detected"
- inactive, on 06/29/2008, -2/+18I personally hated the heroes in Warcraft 3. I realize leveling up the heroes was a part of "strategy", but it was damned annoying. You shouldn't be able to have a near invincible hero that destroys everything just because he's a few levels higher. Maybe some consider that "strategy". To me, its called "overpowered".
- DeathJux, on 06/30/2008, -0/+15Yeah, just because you marry her doesn't mean she's going to change.
- winampman2, on 06/29/2008, -2/+17So, reading about the Zerg in that article... looks like they got some huge advantage boosts. I hope they kept everything balanced with the other races.
I hope this screenshot isn't like 8 minutes into the game.
http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.joystiq.com/medi ... - BioXD, on 06/29/2008, -0/+14You must construct additional pylons
- HolyChimp, on 06/29/2008, -0/+14The first few are useful, but when you have 10 or 15 most of them just sit in a clump and get in the way when you want to click stuff.
- Llanowar, on 06/29/2008, -1/+15You might want to get that checked out.
- Kidddrunkadelic, on 06/29/2008, -0/+13"Fire it up"
