Awesome. I just got my Blizzcon 08 beta invite e-mail. Other Blizzcon 08 attendees and contest winners might want to check their email now.

So, I love you Blizzard, and I was unfortunate not to get a beta account whereas a good friend did. But let me just say...that for 1.5 years I've sent e-mails to a certain group of my friends about how excited I am about this game and the beta etc., and all they've done is made fun of me saying the game wasn't going to be that big of a deal and that I shouldn't look forward to it.

Both of them got beta invites, one of whom made a farce out of any passion that I had for the game. Neither will now allow me to play it as they want to "try it".

I know you chose this via systems specs, and via location, but the irony of your choices makes me a big, fat, sad, panda. I guess back to play H0N for me :(.

Wow, you got it bad.
Keep you head up, maybe you'll get an invite... plus your friends should let you play for a bit if they are actually your friends, they know of your love for the game.

Damn, I got an invite to the Starcraft 2 beta and I never even signed up. Not sure how that happened. Heh, heh. I guess I'm gonna install it now.

Are those "ultra" textures?

Either way, keep in mind the game does not have any settings in the options for AF filtering. It seems you'll have to manually force 16xAF through your drivers, and in isometric games, AF makes a world of difference for texture quality.

<sigh> The real sad thing is there isn't a Mac client. No idea why they sent me this beta invite, since I'm not registered on Battle.net with a PC. I guess I'll have to wait until they get one up.

seems like its sharable if you share an account login and find a way to get it installed.

im checking my battle.net account every hour. :(

I have a SC2 Beta button on my account but no invite in my inbox. Does everyone have the SC2 Beta icon on their battlenet account page?

Fuck that. After getting hacked a couple weeks ago, there's no way that's happening (and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone else, either. Account-sharing out of household is on Blizzard's shit-list). This is not PSN. :)

I am definitely going to have to upgrade my pc for this.

i'm sure the red and green teams have "starcraft 2 release date" highlighted in several colours on their calenders, with a package deal on bulk shipping to korea.

It's not helping that I just got a mud hole stomped into me in the couple games of DoW 2 I just played. If I were to be getting stomped in Starcraft 2, I probably wouldn't mind.
