Starcraft II Megathread V.1 'Hell, It's About Time' - Games

The artifact only restored memories and the previous mind of someone as far as I know.

[sp]She still has the bony hair and shit so she's still partially zerg. [/sp]

do you guys have any idea when the protoss and zerg campaign will be released? Why is blizzard releasing 3 different campaign at 3 different times? It will be a long ass wait. Maybe they want $$$ from us knowing that we will pay how much it takes to get the entire game. Well thats my opinion.

I am trying to master 4gate now. It's a pretty rad tactic.

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XDchL_Xvaw[/media] Is it just me, or are a few low-res .gifs of talking heads in SC1 better at telling the story than the high-poly super expensive cutscenes in SC2? The voice acting is better in SC2, but damn the story writing took one hell of a dive. Now that everything is done and they only need to focus on the campaign, I hope that for HotS we will get a longer (the real story missions were like 6 in WoL) campaign and better writing.

[QUOTE=nikomo;23754286][url]http://revision3.com/unboxingporn/starcraft2?hp[/url] I shat my pants. I think I'll get the collector's edition if it doesn't cost too much.[/QUOTE] That girl's cute

[QUOTE=SteeleCratos;23760914][sp]She still has the bony hair and shit so she's still partially zerg. [/sp][/QUOTE] Probably something like that (still doesn't make sense, but it's most probably like that).

Just got the game today, watched a lot of commentary during the beta. Are there any big changes from end of Phase 2 and the release version?

Just you.

[QUOTE=onox37;23747029]I fuckin' lulzed I have some Starcraft II gifs if you want 'em. Just tell me what.[/QUOTE] Do you have any for Zeratul? Or maybe of the viking pilot?

Also [sp]I wonder what will happen with Mengsk, will we get to kill him as Kerrigan (she must be pissed)? Also since the Protoss expansion will be about unting the Protoss tribes, I'm guessing that the fight against the Hybrids will be in SC3.[/sp]

In the Khala. I would say it has to do with surviving the approaching threat and fighting it.[/sp]

The Level 80 elite tauren chieftain refrence was amazing. i love blizzard

5 days till it gets here, according to Amazon! :dance:

[QUOTE=dvondrake;23763965]I want to play SC1 again now but I've been completely spoiled by SC2's shiny graphics. Also, [sp]what's going to happen with the other expansions? Heart of the Swarm seems like it's all set in the past with infested-Kerrigan, and the Protoss one seems like it's all about the Protoss fighting the hybrids and saving the universe. It seems to me like Blizzard ended the Terran story with Raynor rescuing Kerrigan, but that just doesn't seem complete to me. Will Valerian overtake Mengsk? Will everyone be going after Kerrigan for what she did when she was infested? And what about the Zerg, are they wiped out now, or do the remaining ones have free will now? Don't get me wrong, I thought the ending was quite nice, but it just leaves so many unanswered questions that I fear may never be answered due to the nature of the future expansions. I need some closure.[/sp][/QUOTE] I'm pretty sure [sp]Heart of the Swarm will focus on Kerrigan regaining her abilities and control over the Zerg (so right now they are probably going apeshit without a leader), Legacy of the Void will focus on uniting the Protoss, so I guess the Hybrids will be fought in SC3. Mengsk I have no idea, either we will get a Terran mission with Raynor in the next campaigns in which we take him down, or Kerrigan will do that in HotS. As for Kerrigan now, well nearly no-one knows that she was a Ghost before becoming the Queen of Blades, and even then she's a class 12 psyker, so going after her might not be a good idea.[/sp]

Why is there only one serious Starcraft podcast and it's mediocre at best.

[QUOTE=onox37;23764635]Why is there only one serious Starcraft podcast and it's mediocre at best.[/QUOTE] Because the people that are good at talking about starcraft do commentaries.

I'm starting to feel better about 1v1. I think I figured out what I was doing wrong..I've won 7 games in a row now with no one even getting close to beating me.

Terran. I'm not great but I'm decent. You'll probably beat me.

[sp] just done the mission where you have to destroy the 150 buildings to clense the infection[/sp] how far through am i.

[QUOTE=reecematee;23765044][sp] just done the mission where you have to destroy the 150 buildings to clense the infection[/sp] how far through am i.[/QUOTE] Like halfway I think.

[QUOTE=Murdoco;23765090]Like halfway I think.[/QUOTE] ahh nice, may just be able to finish it before i go on holiday. any one from eu up for a game some time, id say im okay, im not great, but im not terrible.

Haha 4gate is awesome. I am on winning streak on 1v1. I learned how to counter pretty much all common tactics.

I wonder is heaven's devils worth reading? I like to read up on the lore on things I like so is this worth getting at some point?

[QUOTE=onox37;23764940]I'll have a go at you later tonight. What race do you rock usually?[/QUOTE] You said you had Gifs of the units right? You got the Valkyrie or Zeratul by chance?

I'm annoyed Battle.net doesn't have a paypal option for their store.

Hey guys. [sp]I assume people who got the limited edition saw the artbook? Man, that spoiled it for me. I didnt get it at first, but then (after thinking about how hot naked Kerrigan looked) I saw she wasnt infested.[/sp]
