The world's/one of the world's most popular PC games finally gets it's sequel. This board reminded me about it. This board also reminded me that I don't care for it.
So how about you? Are you getting it? Did you ever play the first one? Curious to know.
I don't really care about it right now, since I won't be able to run it.
I'll probably get it when I get a new computer, though.
Do want. That's all I have to say.
Do want. That is all.

This mostly, I'll get it when I see it at a store, & happen to have enough money, But I'm not gonna rush out & buy it. I'm actually pretty content with the games I have, which is a first for me.
I'm absolutely getting it once I get a good enough computer. The first was awesome, although I never played online (I was like 7 when I started), and the expansion was awesome too. These games are so good that they're a professional sport in South Korea. If only my disk drive still worked; I'd still be playing it.
On the bright side, I was invited to go to BlizzCon 2010 with a friend, to which I said "yes." Also, SC2 looks awesome overall. It could be hard to improve on such a longstanding classic though. I hope they do well, but knowing Blizzard, I think they can handle it.

Every aspect seems like an improvement. Graphically, it's stunning. The new units are phenomenal...and look to further balance the game. And it seems like story will be advancing. I'm stoked.

I was aware of the improved graphics and new units--but more story? Why didn't I think of learning about that? I have no idea what's in store for campaign, but I'm glad that it's a story mode sequel as well as that of gameplay.
I recommend this immensely to everyone, the new campaign layout is awesome, from interactive menus to storyline choices and diverse mission structures and objectives, it's a blast. However you get alot of units in the campaign that aren't in multiplayer, in fact, the number of units in multiplayer is quite low but that helps with balance i would assume, and some units are redundant. My only complaint would be that there is no LAN play so when i go over to my friend's house we have to play over battle.net which is sort of a bummer.
Seeing the last post date, did anyone get starcraft 2? If so, add me on battle.net.
I heard the internet won't shut the intercourse up about it. PC games combined with hype is something I can't stand, and RTS games aren't exactly my cup of tea, so I won't bother with Starcraft 2.
...having an outdated computer only affects my decision slightly.
Pirating the first one right now, actually. Never played it before.
I would buy it, but my computer doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell of running the darn thing.
If I had money, I'd get it.
No one has StarCraft? sad face.....
My opinion on it, the units in campaign are a lot more than in multiplayer, there is very few units for use in multiplayer, what were they doing for 12 years? Getting rid of dragoons, that's what. Oh yeah that's right, campaign. It is amazing, the mission structure is always varied and with nice cinematics and "kill him or kill her" kind of choices, it really is interesting. Battle.net leaves a lot to be desired, where are my chat rooms? Where is my ease of access? Where is my LAN play? Where can i easily download replays and host/download custom maps? Nowhere, that's where. Battle.net could learn a lot from Steam, a lot.
EDIT: i just noticed i said my opinion on campaign already, oh well. you get to hear it again.
I need it.
Thing is, I dunno if my laptop can run it.

I have the first one and the expansion if you want to play on GameRanger. I know it's it the best, but I've been using it for
Age of Empires II private games, so if you want to play
Brood War or the original, just tell me.
The campaign in that game is very fun though. The movie clips are awesome. My favorite one is "Battle on the Amerigo" or something like that.
Anyway, I played
SC II for the first time today, although I couldn't finish a game. It was very fun though and I'll be getting it eventually--once I have a good computer and/or more memory.
The last mission is a "you can't go back" kind of choice so i was reluctant to continue until i got some more achievements. I went on and the cutscenes in it are so cool
I'm not really into RTS games, but all my friends are in love with it and play it non-stop. The graphics are gorgeous. I'm still waiting on Diablo 3 D:
I just finished pirating it. I'll do the campaigns and then probably buy it so I can play online.
Good game. Even though I bought it I haven't used online at all. Probably because I know I'd get creamed right away. Thought the campaign was great. Wished there were more. Fun watching high-level matches too.
I'd love to do a few 2v2 matches with you guys.
I'm angry. My laptop can barely run Starcraft II, and it crashes when I try to adjust my graphics settings.

The worst I've got is how I can't scroll in windowed no border because the cursor moves out of the window. At least I can fix that by going to options and just hitting accept.
Maybe an NSFCD starcraft tourney or something?
My computer runs it on ultra settings, and it is amazing.
