Are there no fans in this community about this epic upcoming RTS;...Said by the ancients to be the very EPITOME of the genre?
Through what seems like generations of development by Blizzard, it seems Starcraft II is about to enter the Beta phase (Though date still unknown, it seems though the team is mostly devoted to single player so the majority of the multi-player, (Which is what the team wanted to focus primarily on for competitive gaming, since Starcraft is actually a major sport in North Korea)should be completed). And they have a lot of work with the single player with the whole trilogy thing and all.
The latest news on the project is with the Dark Templar, in which fans are asked to vote for which model they like better, or the FAR better option of having BOTH models and it spawn one of the two randomly when you build a Dark Templar.
I'm more into the Diablo III business, since I wasn't too thrilled with Starcraft, but people seem to be stoked for the new game to come out. I heard there were many changes, including the Queen, but I'm leaning more into the Diablo III blogs.
Yeah, I agree with PsychoIncarnate, they build up all the hype and craziness for such an anticipated game, and take another few years just to fully release? It would seem to be such a waste.. so let's hope it comes out soon
I reckon they took so long to give it more visual effects, and to make a story [maybe?!]. Otherwise I wouldn't know why the dual has taken so long to become... 10 years! That's how long it has been since StarCraft came out!
Actually, they specifically said they are focusing on multiplayer gameplay for competitive players (Starcraft is the national sport of South Korea, for one.)
THough they have had a massive improvement in the story, and as of right now are almost completely devoted to the story (Said multiplayer is all but complete)
I'm not sure that I like it that they are deviding it up into three games one from the side of the terran, one from the side of the protos, and one from the side of the zergs...
