Argi Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 This is mad :D It's like a sports game. If you like it then check out GomTV (cnt link it on my phone atm) and there's literally hundreds of English-casted games that rock. Most are casted by Tateless too, the best SC caster imho. ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mounty Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 I'd beg for a beta key too, but I just know the final game will suck every spare moment from my life so I may as well get some work done now :p :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~WinGz~ Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 I got into the beta from one of my friends to be honest. Out of both SC and SC2. SC2 feels sort of like a let down for me. The units don't have their gritty feel to them anymore so it feels like Eyecandycraft. Games seem to have a turning point where all units at the start make the ones in the end rare to get to. I never once played a game past tier 2 units as any race because they aren't beneficial to use at all. Marauders, Roaches, and Stalkers seem to be the only units people get and spam because they make other units pathetic really. So in a way i'm let down cause if you try to do another strategy it fails epicly cause those units are just to dependent on a fast ending game. So its lost its luster to me. =/ If I get a beta key to give out i'll gladly pass it off to anyone on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yusuf M. Veteran Posted April 21, 2010 Veteran Share Posted April 21, 2010 Apparently, there's a massive update coming this week which includes a map and mod editor. Also, the Mac version of the beta client is set to be released next week. That could mean more invites will be sent out to people that uploaded Mac specs.

obiwong Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 just checked out the SC2 forums on bnet apparently if you preorder SC2 at gamestop or eb you get a beta key checked out ebgames.ca and they do note that if you pre order you will get a beta key i'll probably be stopping by after work to preorder a CE :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yusuf M. Veteran Posted April 21, 2010 Veteran Share Posted April 21, 2010 Haha, you guys are right. Pre-ordering StarCraft II from EBGames/GameStop guarantees you a beta key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evolution Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Is anyone finding that it takes over half an hour to patch the game? Is anyone else with Win 7 64-bit experiencing this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
essential+ Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 I just got my beta key today from Amazon. I pre-ordered the game on Amazon.com on Feb 18th so it took some time to get my key, which I was not even expecting lol xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoneyardBrew Member Posted April 23, 2010 Member Share Posted April 23, 2010 Yep. Battle.net is down for maintenance and patch 9 appears to be bugged. I couldn't even start the game after I installed the patch. It just kept looping saying it was installing the patch over and over again like others have said. Oh well, I was looking forward to getting a game or two in tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just went to reserve the game and installed and patched and find this. :( It's possible to start the game without the patcher, but Battle.net is down so it doesn't matter. Sigh...
