Forums - PC Discussion - Official Star Craft 2 Beta Thread

I figured it would be best to have one spot to cry over losing to the Koreans who bought SC2 keys to beat the piss out of us poor Americans. Or link up to have matches with each other or whatever. I go by Gnizmo.gnomercy on there too if anyone wants to beat me down.

So far I am extremely impressed with the game. It is clearly just in the balancing phase of the game. I don't think I have found one bug yet, other than my inability to win every match. I am really loving what they did with Terrans this time around. I suck to an extreme that cannot be believed with Zerg and Protoss so I can't say anything from that end. Hopefully a few of the cooler units get made a touch more useful. Thors look cool, but they seem useless because of how long it takes you to get them.

Thoughts anyone else?

Why? Why? Why I haven't got my fucking beta key!? I've bought every single bloody Blizzard game ever released. I was beta testing WoW and W3... Yet these bastards leave me out now...



MY HYPE LIST: 1) Gran Turismo 5; 2) Civilization V; 3) Starcraft II; 4) The Last Guardian; 5) Metal Gear Solid: Rising

Gnizmo you should thank me, as if it wasn't for me you wouldn't be in the Beta

As for the topic, long live the king of RTS games! Starcraft is back to own everyone! Seriously guys I still don't know of an RTS that tops Starcraft but Starcraft II takes everything great about the original and improves upon it and the revamped battle.net is nice even though a good number of features aren't available yet.

Oh shit, did they do the friend invites already?

well, i for one think its cool, but the rushing is the exact same as SC:BW, except zerg having Queens to make ling rushes even better. (no one does those but im like 12-3 with zerg since i started it

I've tried everything to get a beta key, short of ebaying one... and I've been tempted... And I've only not done that because of the high price... I'd pay, but not $300...

That was a while back. You would need to work to get one now probably. Maxwell got me mine a while back thankfully. Of course it helps that I was the first to ask probably(I told him he had a beta invite heh).

That was kinda low Machina. I am kind of surprised more people here didn't end up with a key. Oh well. More people I can taunt kkthxla~

Don't worry I'm sure someone will hack a way to play with people in other regions. Even LAN support may pop up after several months.

People on the PC seems to get what they want one way or another and since it's an open platform they usually succeed, so anything that was painful and just plain stupid should get "fixed."
