Can we add all the SC2 IDs/character codes to the OP?
My SC2 ID is ChaosJoe Character code: 792
I'm really looking forward to the campaign, Raptor lings sound OP as hell. Gonna go through on Normal before I try Brutal. Then I gotta do a Hard run for the Achievements.
Man I just had a scary though, evolving Infestors...... Holy mother of god what can Blizz do to make them more OP in campaign? (I know Infestors have been nerfed but damn if Fungal isn't still annoying to deal with.)
Since today is Wednesday I'm hopeing GAF can get some games in tonight/today.

Ya. I wasnt sure if hots gave new codes or not. If yall want to list post them here ill update the google doc. Plus with gaf channel we might not need it as much as we did for wol.

That's true. The channel and group feature really do help. I updated my post above with my SC2 ID and character code for the US server. So the character codes are different for different regions (you may also choose a different name in each region) but AFAIK it will stay the same for HOTS in each region.

Think its time for me to return to Starcraft. I watched quite a few matches but haven't played since summer. Time to get hyped for HotS!

He'll be back in June :3

Unranked ladder is the best. Such a great feature by blizzard. Makes this game much more accessible since you can actually learn from other people without feeling depressed about your ladder ranking.

Can I just give you my real id for an invite?
Yes, although I'll still play ranked. I'm achievement person.
Yes, and it's pretty cool

Listen to BIGBANG while laddering? :3 will take you immediately to GM!
Is that some sort of science show about the physics behind the beginning of the universe?
Btw how is everyone enjoying the arcade?

Thanks EJ.
Just to add - all that you should need to do is paste this into an Internet browser and it should launch SC2. You log in, and the group should appear. (this is on a Mac by the way - I'm sure it must be the same with Windows).
If you're not in the US region, you may not get the region tab to appear. Just log into the US server, log out then do the steps above.
Also, Profit, the European group is currently marked as Private, any chance you can open it up? Thanks
Oh really? Will open it up when I get home! And if I dont fall asleep as soon as I arrive...Thanks EJ.

Blizz has posted some of the unit skin upgrades you can get.
I like these, and it still is consistent with the look of the rest of the game (no wacky out of place or goofy skins, at least not yet).
I'm assuming these become available as you level up? Like decals, portraits, etc.?
That is correct!
Valve did it in DotA2. You just need strong art direction and a consistent vision, IMO.

I can stream smoothly at a pretty decent quality, but I can't for the love of me get used to playing with a framerate that's below 100
. Definitely check out my page (twitch.tv/yoshichan) when the game goes live... I think that I'll be streaming some action after I've finished the single-player (yes, I'm one of those guys! I loved WoL sp!)Corran Horn

Dat rage stream.

Last time I streamed for GAF, I broke a keyboard in half while playing DkS... I just alt F4'd the entire thing and left the stream without a good bye :lol... Felt so bad afterwards, so I stopped streaming.

Will do!
Less than a week till launch and I still have only heard the new protoss MP song... where can I find the new zerg/terran song?!
The Protoss song isn't really new is it? I thought it was just one of the BW tracks.

Wait, really? I don't remember a BW-track being like that... and in that case, did they remix it or something?
Found it:

I frikkin' love this... at 1:30, it gets SO good.
Oh, this is a different track then I thought it was. Nevermind...

Crap, should've ordered earlier. Amazon currently out of stock of the CE. Hopefully they get some more in. I don't have to play on Day 1, but I'd much rather buy it from Amazon than running out somewhere since I have a ton of credit there. Hopefully the get some more in the next few days - will definitely order it next time I see it up.
(There's some 3rd party that's selling it for $85, but I'm not gonna bite on that.)

Digital CE is still showing from blizzard unless you want the box and mouse pad.
