So it's a matter of not getting your moneys worth, so you just take them for free? Hmm. . . personally I look at reviews and get friends input and decide myself how much a game is worth, if it's doesn't sound like it's going to be a full-price purchase, I wait until it goes on sale. Different thoughts.

Also, Vlad, it seems like you have impossibly high standards if SC2 isn't going to meet them and therefore be "okay" to be pirated. So the company that you profess is awesome at treating PC gamers and caters just to them can't even make your standards to be "worthy" of your money, makes it sound like you are just using this quality argument as an excuse to take whatever you want, since nothing is good enough.

So let me get this straight. LAN is now "high standards?" Gaming has really went down the shitter if that's the case.

The battlenet features that will come with SC2 are way beyond anything SC1 had, but you obviously are not going to go point that out as that would invalidates your argument that SC2 is inferior to SC1....

 

LAN is a thing of the past...

Only a few hardcore still cling to it. The majority of us would rather not have to carry our PC around to play a multiplayer game...

 

 

Yes, except they dont offer sub 10 ping games. However seeing how most people in this day and age don't understand shit about ping yeah, I can see LAN dying. Sadly, ping is a very important factor, and the only way to remove it is through LAN. As I said, you gaming has really become shit when LAN is gone.

Unless you are trying to imply one of two things:

a) ping is no longer important

b) you can have decent ping without LAN

If you go by either of these two then you are just ignorant and just don't know shit about gaming then, so I really hope you aren't trying to imply either.

sorry but a 50ms better ping isn't going to change a game of Starcraft at all...........

Heck, most RTS games transmit user interaction at 10 to 4 per second...

So now explain me how your 8ms ping make thing any better when the game doesn't interpret more than 4 to 10 user interactions per second anyway...
