BopNiblets · 19-02-2010 12:31PM

I don't have another Blizzard game to add to Battlenet so I couldn't even opt in for it, laaame.
This guy on Youtube has some videos: http://www.youtube.com/user/PerfectionistEmblem

think i signed up for this about 6 months ago but still no word, i'd say the list is massive

MrParanoid · 19-02-2010 01:41PM

listen to these wise words! man i'm dieing to play, must have watched like 30 games today 8(

BopNiblets · 19-02-2010 10:07PM

I watched 31! (maybe) GIMME!

Are there any other video sites or games I can watch?
Have the progamers started on it yet? (not some crappy cam ones, can't see much on those ones)

Funky · 20-02-2010 12:12AM

there's a few games up on youtube but i've mostly been watching the streams on starcraftmethod, they're not the worst quality and there's a couple of good players. the JessicaJung and Lumi streams are pretty good

what a whore ! selling a beta key ? thats a bit low tbh

CombatCow · 20-02-2010 09:45PM

Really, why ? I paid for the Blizzcon goodybag, and don't have a pc capable of running SC2 anymore.....

Lots of people have been selling them on eBay

fair play to ya tbh nice money for it

Very select beta to get into... wonder what the selection process actually is or is it just random.
Lots of fun watching the "pirates" wait/spam to get a working online/lan version of the beta (currently they can watch replays, view full menus and listen to music...). Blizzard obv prepared for this though through some steps that they took which is good thing for game of this magnitude.

BopNiblets · 21-02-2010 02:54PM

I would trade a free HL2 copy on Steam for an invite, I wonder can we invade the WoW forum and troll for them?

Jonny7 · 21-02-2010 04:06PM

these things are selling for 200 - 300 euros online..

Funky · 21-02-2010 04:11PM

yep, thanks blizzard for random selection 8(

WellyJ · 23-02-2010 01:38PM

I got one, have played about 10 games. Repeatedly get owned, but never played the first one. It's really polished and loving it to be honest.

Spunog UIE · 23-02-2010 09:45PM

God I'd love an invite to this too. Been waiting so long for it. I signed up to the beta with a trial WOW account which never played

Funky · 24-02-2010 11:56AM

a kind person hooked me up with an invite and i got in a good like 25 or so 1v1's yesterday, really awesome stuff. this game is gonna be some beast on release

tman · 24-02-2010 12:02PM

Just got a friends and family invite here... Have never actually played the original, but looking forward to getting stuck into this!:)

cherryghost · 24-02-2010 12:53PM

i hate EVERYONE who's on the beta.

Retr0gamer · 24-02-2010 02:06PM

Played a game last night and actually won! My friends who are far better than me all go beaten so I was the first that won

Overall it's basically the original with new units and I've no complaints about that. Needs some serious balancing though, Air are way too dominant.

Funky · 24-02-2010 02:13PM

if anyone fancies some custom 1v1s or 2v2s or something gimi a pm

I've only played one game so far and amazingly won that! (think that's the first time that I've EVER won an RTS match online:p)
Very enjoyable so far, I'll definitely be picking it up for the singleplayer campaigns anyway!

Though lacking any form of decent computer i am forced to look at images of Starcraft 2 & pretend im playing it!

grizzly · 25-02-2010 03:29AM

Jazzy · 25-02-2010 03:34PM

Jazzy · 27-02-2010 09:11AM
