[QUOTE=thrawn2787;20636130]He obviously had two or more games and registered each to different accounts, and two accounts got in[/QUOTE] NOPE got one for going to blizzcon 09 (FUCK YAH IM NERDY) got the other from optin.
He's legit guys
Well, after taking 20 hours to download, 5 minutes to install, 30 minutes to download patches, and 1-2 hours of getting Korean-stomped 4 times in a row, I can honestly say it's pretty neat so far.
[QUOTE=Appox;20637383]He's legit guys[/QUOTE] I never doubted him, and come to think of it I do remember him bitching alot about the whole blizzcon thing. All I did was come up with a plausible explanation of what happened
I wasn't really bitching about it..it was annoying that they didn't send it to us first..but I waited.
My other TWO Accounts just got it, my main got it in the first wave, sweet. Giving 1 account to my uncle to use and 1 to my cousin i guess :3
Fuckin a
I'll give you all a roflstompage in the game with the help of my not so helpful partner Murdoco.
If I had a key, you'd be eating those words; we have to play if I get one
Just had a weird ass FFA match...I was terran..all other 3 teams were zerg and basically everyone was turtling...all 3 zerg teams made max amount of zerglings and went for my base..they destroyed EVERYTHING..but ...I had battlecruisers. I flew over to their bases and they had no defense against it..so I destroyed em..Damn that was fun.

[IMG]http://i45.tinypic.com/zk36de.jpg[/IMG] People are saying that you [B]should[/B] be getting an email if you attended Blizzcon '08, however later posts say that there is a small batch of early opt-in people that Blizzard is using first, before the big wave. First wave hasn't even started yet, I'm just one of the lucky ones. Don't despair yet, just hang in there![/QUOTE] Bah, lucky bastard. I check my email every day for a beta key. Each day, a part of me dies. GOD DAMNIT BLIZZARD. GIVE ME A BETA KEYYYY
Dont worry guys you'll get a key soon! Does anyone want to play a 1v1 or 2v2 where we don't kill our enemy bases but only do epic battles in the middle of the map?
It runs decently on my HP Mini 311, I'd say around 8-15fps average. I just ordered more ram :)
[email]yhellothere123@hotmail.com[/email] on sc2. Add me up!
Ugh... need that beta NOW AI isn't cutting it for me.
Hey, would you agree that two players with the same race have an equal chance of winning? It's just the player that controls the race sucks? I can't say anything about Zergs v Protoss because that shit is actually rigged against Protoss. Mutalisk + Hydra attack my ass. Protoss has literally no decent AA. Protoss with a Hydra rush is counterable but a Mutalisk attack vs Protoss doesn't have a economic counter.
[QUOTE=G-Guy;20626048]I also like how battlecruisers are a lot more useful now, I hated the shitty laser in the first one.[/QUOTE] Did you just call the Yamato Gun shitty? What?
[QUOTE=Frayyyy;20679417]Did you just call the Yamato Gun shitty? What?[/QUOTE] He probably means how in sc1 they fired little pew pew lasers slowly.
[QUOTE=-chu-;20679465]He probably means how in sc1 they fired little pew pew lasers slowly.[/QUOTE] Yeah its really annoying.

[QUOTE=Sub-Zero;20680698]Yeah its really annoying.[/QUOTE] I would always build 5 starports and build two at the same time as the others... Mass poduction of those things FTW (Battlecruisers = Slow but still win)
[QUOTE=Death Dragon;20681268]I heard Sentries and their Guardian Shield are pretty good against Mutalisks.[/QUOTE] Alright. Sentries sounds good right? Wrong. Sentries literally are gas suckers, 100 gas for a single sentry. Though their mineral cost is low their gas is high and minerals can be harvested simultaneously with 7 mineral "rocks" with two SCV/Drone/Probes on each, which totals to 14 while geysers can only be harvest one at a time, so let's say 2 geysers with 3 SCV/Drone/Probes to keep a steady harvest of gas. Minerals also come in 5 at a time while gas comes in 4. Sentries are also very fragile and the great thing about the mutas is that they are very versatile and can leave when sentries put up their guardian shields and come back when it's gone and since the guardian shield take up over 40% of the sentry's energy for a single shield that it's not very wise. :/ [editline]02:07AM[/editline] [QUOTE=GameDev;20681350]I would always build 5 starports and build two at the same time as the others...

Especially when they get shot down by the umm, let get the name out, mutalisk and corrupters that Zerg has. I personally nuked an army of Battlecruisers before. About 15 of them. :P
I just got another key :D

Time to make some money :D hehe
You people selling keys are fucking lame. I've been looking forward to play SC2 really badly ever since it was announced, and you guys just fucking make money on it. I may be a huge SC fan, but i'm not giving money to fucks like you.
