   Starcraft 2 launch date July 27
There goes the summer!  :)
  does this mean the beta end soon? :(   ;  I think it ends the middle of this month.  :(   ;  I'll believe it when I get my hands on a copy. (Which ideally will be paid for by someone else, I'm tired of forking out money for RTS games that just annoy me.)   ;  When the beta ends, I wonder if I'll still be able to test out maps I'll be making.  It'd be nice to have the time to make some awesome UMS maps right when the game gets released.   ;  Awww.  I got the beta less than two weeks ago.  I hope they let it run for a while longer.  Still, excited about the news.   ;  It's hard to believe that people are going to pay $150+ for the full game.  Zerg and Protoss campaigns are considered full price expansions?gg Activision Blizzard   ;  I pre-ordered my copy from Best Buy last week, and got a Beta key in the email as well.  However when I went to add it to my battle.net account, it said that that key had already been redeemed.  I emailed Blizzard about it, but haven't heard anything back.I'm a little upset.   ;Quote:Original post by GroZZleRIt's hard to believe that people are going to pay $150+ for the full game.  Zerg and Protoss campaigns are considered full price expansions?gg Activision BlizzardOriginal starcraft was a ~30 mission long campaign, 10 missions for each race.broodwar added ~30 more missions, once again 10 for each race.So for starcraft2, which might be the most polished $60 you'll ever pay for, considering most other games have a 2 year development length, you'll get a ~30 mission long terran campaign, but you want it to be 90 missions long?, or should it be 30 missions spread out between the three races?Blizzard has released expansions before, but remember, their expansions are the most worthwhile and polished expansions out there.;  I've never got too involved in playing RTS games online and Warcraft 3 just didn't captivate me in the way Warcraft 2 and Starcraft did, so I'm going to sit on the fence for a while regarding Starcraft 2. The single player options for an RTS is important to me, so having only one playable race campaign in the box causes me to pause. But I understand that this game is probably not aimed for my tastes. I'll probably wait until all three campaigns are in one box and consider buying it then.
