But thats what we want..We want faster somewhat better looking graphics :? and that's what they give.

Anyway, I was never a huge fan of starcraft, I played Multiplayer with my friends, I finished single player (I dont remember much of it now though, but somehow I still remember cnc1's storyline, possibly because it rules ;))...I just never got too into it.

Perhaps if it will run on my computer (judging from some of the particle effects not too well), I'll get it because I love RTS games, otherwise I won't cry much :P

Hmm, don't worry. Starcraft 2 will scale down the graphics to run smooth on your computer.
At least, that's what they said. ;)

Anyways, hereby I am reserving game-space for 1on1 games in the future.
Har, bring it on!

Starcraft storyline = best of any RTS. That's how I knew exactly what was going to happen the second I saw someone walk in with chains on their legs in the cinematic trailer. :P

Hmm, talking about the storyline;

I wonder if we get to see earth since Starcraft was set in the Koprulu-sector.. :/

I'd want to see the Hybrids explained. That part of the storyline was like "AAAAAAAAAGH WHY DO YOU TAUNT ME, BLIZZARD?"

Yes, StarCraft 2 should be able to run on a wide range of computers. Hopefully it'll run great on the Macbook i'll be ordering at the end of Summer. If not, it'll probably run OK on this comp.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, they did add the Terran section (at least some of it) a week ago or something (at leasts that's when I saw it first) so check it out. The new Goliath seems OK, but I was always a huge fan of the Goliath. Hopefully this guy will be pretty sweet (As of right now the ground variation seems way sweeter, guess that's because I was such a fan of the original goliath)

Goliaths are so awesome...just build like 20 of them, and you can mow through ANYTHING that's not high-level ground units.

I reinstalled as well...I'd say I would play you, but I was never good at SC, soi I'd be totally owned and myego would be damaged.
