StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm

[implosion222]

I'm excited for it but a little disappointed that they're taking the carrier and mothership away. I mean.. the mothership I can see why even tho it makes for great fun at times, but the carriers? seriously? It's a classic StarCraft unit. Why take it away? , Then I also hear that the Thor will only be built once and called the "Odin" kind of a super unit with lots of HP. I for one enjoyed massing up Thors and marines, or Thors and vikings. Otherwise I'm glad to see new units coming into the game. The mechanics will change and so will people's strategies. I hardly play 1vs1 I find it boring to be honest. I enjoy 2vs2 a lot tho. I get on teamspeak with a friend of mine and we always have a good time. We've worked our way up from bronze and now we're currently starting in Platinum. It's all about refining your build order, know what to scout and when to scout and always be a move ahead of your opponent. Hopefully Blizzard won't make us wait too much longer. Summer of 2012 would be a reasonable release date.

Its a slow afternoon for me today... so naturally I couldn't resist pulling off a thread necro err... I mean update..

Starcraft 2 HotS is available for pre-order. At 40 bucks its not a bad price. I was honestly expecting blizzard to be selling for 50.

how does the Physical Collector's edition work? Are there stores that let you reserve and pickup? or are they usually just first come first server. still sad about missing out on the WOL collectors :(

Oh cool, I knew it was available for preorder but I never checked the price as I was expecting it to be a full $60. IIRC, the Brood War expansion was only $40 when it was released as well.

That opening cinematic is purely amazing. I wish blizzard would would do a full 90-120 minute feature film set in any of their 3 game worlds.

LOL same here, but I'm more interested in the single player story.
