Really looking forward to SC2 for me, i love how the story evolves ( maybe im simple ) . But sad that there's no new race, because im really looking forward to what Duran have said about a new and more powerful race (maybe a mixture of zerg and protoss, rem they are created by the xel'naga) coming, and sarah looking blank waiting for the new fate that awaits her.... all the build up to sc2... hmm... maybe it will be out in sc2 expansion i guess....
You mean the Hybrids that the Protoss discovered on one of the moons?
I played original starcraft many years. Then I got bored with it and the genre altogether. SC2 is just redecorated SC1 with few gameplay tweaks. No thanks. RTS game is soo 90's.
Exactly. This is Starcraft 1.5 at best. The same game with a graphics overhaul and a few new units thrown in does not make a whole new game. Oh well I'll just stick with MMOs and let the Koreans have their fun with this one. I hope Blizzards next announcement isn't as disappointing as this one was.

Exactly , I wasnt impressed on any level what so ever. They are going to have to do better then that.

A few more units radically changed SC when Broodwar came out. Medics changed a lot about how one used infantry. Lurkers and Devourers created a new layer of economic management for Zerg. Dark Templer and Corsairs changed a lot of priorties in build orders. All together they added more dynamism than what could've been found in vanilla craft.

Yap! Found by 1 of the protoss hero, forget his name. Tassada?
Played SC for a long time got my son adicted to it lol and now he is excited for this after I told him! I am too for that matter, regardless of the negative BS being sprayed on here about how disappointed people are there is no SC MMO or how Blizzard needs to do better. Seems there is just no pleasing any1 these days!
All I have to say is atleast I will have something to play now what with all the worthless MMO's out there and lack of population on them I felt like I was playing a stand alone game anyway.....and this one won't require a monthly subscription to play alone!
This is actually very interesting. This means that Blizzard doesn't have any MMORPG for the 3rd/4th generation of MMO's. This is probably a golden opportunity for Ncsoft and Lineage 3.
Blizz's next gen MMO plans have no bearing on NCsoft and Lineage 3's success, besides their two diffrent audiences. NC soft just needs to concentrate on making a stellar title and let the chips fall.
Blizz wasn't sweating SOE and EQ II they just stuck to their guns and came out kicking arse.
Although a Starcraft MMO would have been interesting.

I'd be willing to bet that any non-Korean that played the crap out of SC1 till they got burnt out on it like I did will play this game for 2 weeks to a month tops and then it will be sitting on a shelf gathering dust. I loved SC1 as much as the next guy did but as they say, you can never go home again.
This could be the first step toward releasing a Starcraft MMORPG sometime in the near future. That would mimick what they did with Warcraft III and World of Warcraft.
It really seems like alot of people on this site think that the mmo community is the only one out there. Whether old sc1 players play sc2 for one day or another 10 years as soon as they buy it they have already gotten all the money from them.
people need to get their heads out of their arses and start breathing fresh air IMO. people critise anything before playing it, they critise if they do not hear what they want... i could go on but what would be the point? (they meaning: mostly everyone here)
4. its not even a good RTS, get supreme comander or something. rts games haven't changed much since C&C 1, and this looks worse than that.
PS: I'm not a RTS haters i've played most C&C's and AoE's since I was small. This genuinely looks tird, and disapointing from a company who went from making average RTS games to decent MMO's.
Have you seen the screenshots of the supposed "new" SC2? It essentially looks the same, same 2D, same interface, etc etc. Have you read about this "new" SC2?
This game looks like a joke to me, although I enjoyed SC1 immensely and still play it to this day. But come on.....this "new" game is just a joke, its pathetic. I can't believe all the people who think this new SC2 is cool.
wow i was excited when i started reading about this but after i saw the screenshots i determined that i most likely wouldnt buy it...
IMO the original starcraft/BW had better graphics than the cartoonish crap from WCIII but since they seem to want to ONLY use cartoony graphics seriously doubt i will be buying starcraft2

I think they use those cartoony graphics so almost everyone can play. Including people like myself who can't waste money and have an old Comp. I mean look what it did for WoW's cash flow. Btw that game must be done cause come on 2003!?!?!

SC2 is probably just paving the way for World of Starcraft or Starcraft Galaxies (ha).
As far as RTS games go, Blizzard games are typically the "easiest." WC3 was nothing to plow through. The real trick was the online play, where after so many levels you'd run into very good twitch-based players that could summon armies and micro fairly well.

HELL,IT'S ABOUT TIME /love blizzard
Dunno bout you guys.. But I won't be touching SC2.
Don't get me wrong, it looks great - balanced and all, but RTS just isn't my thing.
I have a feeling the MMO they're developing is Diablo, seems like a natural progression of the series.
This is exciting news

I love Blizzard again!
1. its not a MMORPG, so wrong forum.
2. its not even a RPG, so wrong community.
3. Its a RTS.

Holy shit! Working on it since 2003? That's a long time to be working on a game..
I personally can't wait for the custom games that people make for battle.net!
I want an new MMO
Starcraft 2? Hell yes!
This is my signature
