Idra is finally showing the results of his move from the USA to Korea to join CJ Entus, and is the only non-Korean to advance to the quarter-finals.

Mindlog said:It's a goddamn shame competitive Starcraft doesn't get more attention on these boards. Excellent coup for Idra I hope he can keep making progress.
It's pretty shameless milking, but I'm intrigued.Each campaign will be very different, with Pardo saying the Zerg campaign will contain RPG elements. The Protoss campaigin will likewise be differentiated by elements of diplomacy. In addition, the Terran campaign will contain a Protoss mini-campaign.

Seems blizz wants to get the multiplayer game out there ASAP![]()

Kintaro said:Hmmm, pretty blatant milking job there. So, $150 for the whole thing pretty much. I'll believe the claims about multiplayer being unaffected when I see it. Why not just go whole hog and sell a multiplayer only version for less?
Exactly.Zzoram said:That's the part that they have spent most of their development time working on, since that's what they have to make perfect. The campaigns are going to be really long and have a lot of cutscenes, so I don't mind waiting on them.
Jenga said:Sounds like Blizzard just WANTS to give pirates an excuse.
$150 for starcraft? :lolZzoram said:Um, no. Starcraft II is the one product that is actually worth this price, or more.
And that will piss people off even more.Xyphie said:What if they add extra stuff into the multiplayer game with these expansions? That'll basically force everyone to buy them.
Zzoram said:justify their PC exclusivity.

aznpxdd said:Damnit, Blizzard is milking us! But fuck man...they know we are just gonna gobble it all up.
I feel its milking, but if they give us an assload of missions I am willing to play. Probably only Blizzard and Valve could get away with doing this because they put out such quality products.Zzoram said:It's probably the only way they could convince their shareholders/Activision to let them keep making PC exclusives. I'm totally cool with this, I am personally willing to pay $100 per chapter for collector's editions if they are enticing enough.
Let me reiterate that the content in the Terran Campaign is as much as Starcraft 1 had if you add up all 3 campaigns, so there is no skimping of content.
Would you guys prefer they give 10 missions from each race, then add the other 20 over 2 expansion packs?
I'd rather do all of 1 race at a time frankly.
you cant play online with a pirated copy so how the fuck is this move hurting blizzard? if you want to play a blizzard game you want to play it online no matter which titel it is! so you have to buy it anyway or you miss the best part of it.Jenga said:Sounds like Blizzard just WANTS to give pirates an excuse.
and thats why they will add units in this 2 exp. packs i bet they will have exp- pack prices tooSpruchy said:Buy the first one then pirate the next 2?

Dreavus said:Ok, this would annoy me. As long as multiplayer is not compromised I have no problem with it being a "trilogy". The second and third games would be the sort of thing I'd pick up way after release when I feel like playing more single player. If they add new units to each new game and force me to buy each one to keep up with the online community, it would just split up their user base and piss everyone off.
Exactly, sc multiplayer wasn't perfected till BW, and the same goes for wc3 / the frozen throne.Zzoram said:Did everyone suddenly forget that this isn't the first RTS with expansion packs adding more campaign and multiplayer tweaks?
I didn't have to pay $150 in total that timevoodoopanda said:Starcraft: Brood War added stuff to multiplayer, so did WC3: Frozen Throne. I don't see how this is different.
Big-E said:That Zeratul shot, OMG. So are all these expansions coming at the same time? I don't know if I could buy all the campaigns at once so I hope they spread it out.
Jenga said:I didn't have to pay $150 in total that time
Tentative price is $59.99 for each one.voodoopanda said:Have they announced prices? Arent Blizz expansions usually like 30$?

Zzoram said:They are staggered, because they aren't done yet.
Jenga said:Tentative price is $59.99 for each one.
Hey, if the prices were $30, I'd be fucking relieved. but guess what? Blizzard doesn't even consider these "expansions", they're all just part of the main package. Or something.Dreavus said:This is my chief concern. =(
