Thats very debatable. Not everyone enjoyed it for various reasons but it's still done really well worldwide and people are still playing it competitively.

That being said I still think SC was way way better.

So far the only Zerg units spoiled are the ones glimpsed in Gameplay vids. The official Zerg section of the site is still not accessible.

Your 1000th post and you squander it in a Starcraft thread, not only that, you make spelling mistakes?!? Dissapointing. You are not as awesome as you claim to be.

Congratulations, Grandmaster Natas.

Well, I was kinda thinking the same thing... but then again.. SC2?!?!?! I think the only PC game I am more amped for than this is Spore...So not that sure my 1000th post wasted... but anyways, as for the spelling mistakes... really just staying true to the 1000 other posts also littered with bad spelling and even worse language... at school me always did bad at speeling and English.. me nearly failed English...

Does anyone know what kinda system requirements we looking at for SC2? I htink I might need to upgrade my PC to run this one!!?!?!?!!?!
 
I hope they keep the 200 unit count.

Do you know how many zerglins you can hatch from a 200 unit count..

ah the good old days, if I I was about to wina LAN game, I'd pull all my units back (which generally left the other player think that I had bestowed mercy) and start killing them. Then I'd prioduce only zerglings up until I had 400 and take the guy's base out, I dont care how many air units or siege tanks or scarabs he threw at me, my 400 zerglings would rip through his "rag-tag" base in seconds...

Lol :D

3-3 lings ftw!
 
SC2 does look nice, very pretty and all that stuff.

/me hates Supreme Commander, whoever said it was a good game?
 
This is where i spoil it...

SC2 is not being made by the devs who made the original SC and Broodwar

As u will have noticed there are a few units that are very similar to WH, disappointing imo

Having sold my soul 2 the devil (going into my second yr of WOW), im not 2 sure the story will b as good as the first, but the gfx will b awesome
 
Watch some of the gameplay video's. It might not be the same DEV's but it looks to be very much in the spirit of SC 1.
Some of the units are the same ones but with some new abilities. Marines, Zealots, Dark Templars, etc are all there again but with new abilities added.
The game looks more and more awesome as footage becomes available.

I saw the video like a month ago or something and I had to buy Dawn of war...those Maverics or whatever they call the terran units than can jetpack over terrain reminded me of Space Marines' Raptor Squads..
 
Possible System Requirements (Not confirmed by Blizzard but they haven't denied these either) and remember, you will need PIXEL SHADER 2.0

Minimum Requirements: GFX: GeForce 7/8 Series or Radeon 1000/2000 with 256Mb RAM; CPU: Pentium 4; RAM: 1Gb; Internet: ADSL 1 MBit

Recommend Requirements: GFX: GeForce 8000 or Radeon 2000 series with 512Mb RAM; CPU: Core 2 Duo or Athlon X2; RAM: 2Gb; Internet: ADSL 3 Mbit

Optimal Requirements: GFX: Geforce 9000er or Radeon 3000er Series; CPU: Core 2 Duo 3 Ghz or Athlon X2; RAM: 2Gb with DualChannel mode.
 
I call BS on those requirements....or more specifically the 1Mbit adsl minimum requirement.

Strategy games don't need 1mbit lines and if they do then the developers did something wrong.
 
I wanted to enter the "I <3 SC" competition..."Only for Yankee Doodles and Korean Ninja's"

Oh and I call a BS on those requirements too...

I think I'm going to have to build a new machine for this game....when its finally released...
 
I think that it is BS as well.

Just remember that the game is Mac and PC and as such I bet it will run on any Intel Mac, even without a dedicated graphics card.

If WoW will run on it (and it does on a 1st generation MacBook) then I would bet that SC2 will run as well.

Doubt it, but if it is true it will hamper the success of SC2. The Orginal was a great success because it did not need a "monster pc" to run on and it was still an awesome game.

/put 2c in
 
Im very much looking forward to SC2. I played SC1 religiously for years without stopping!!!!
Made my own killer maps that I will be remaking! Loved bunker command mod too. Will there be hero units like wc3? I would doubt it, but if there are, can you imagine starcraft dota? ^_^ Can be made either way I reckon. The editors that come with the game are always AWESOME.

Weren't these requirements acknowledged to be fake?
 
Only played the original for the first time the other day...lol. It's awesome. Hope SC2 is just as awesome!

Play broodwars :) much more balanced imo......and SC2 better be awesome, we have waited long enough for it :mad::(;):D
 
Hope it's gonna be better than C&C3. C&C3 was really disappointing with the lack of unit upgrades, ships etc. Gets boring building the same old units all the time. Just build plenty - quantity not quality. No real possibilities.

DotA FTW :-)
