Starcraft 2

[divinephoenix]

I know their making it and they have a website already but you know any other facts other than that. i love Starcraft since it was the one who opened me to the whole computer gaming thing.

[josh]

all i know is they have been making it for a long time. and i expect it to b the best strategy game ever.

i love starcraft, the korean national sport

[scorpionwarrior]

Haha XD Indeed. Yeah it better be as good as what they're making it seem.

[divinephoenix]

I hope the same. Will there be a new race other than terran, zerg and protoss?

[scorpionwarrior]

nah there won't be

The entire interview is a good read, but the other big piece of information that jumped out at me was the fact that Blizzard is going on the record to say there won't be a fourth race. So we're going to be treated to more Terran on Protoss on Zerg action. Sexy!

Will any familiar characters from "StarCraft" and "Brood Wars" be returning to "StarCraft II?"

Yes. The storyline will follow the main story arc that we left off in “Brood Wars,” just a couple of years after that. You can certainly expect to see many of the returning characters.

But no fourth race?

No fourth race. We talked a lot about it. We ultimately decided we wanted to focus on the three races we had.


I did a little exploring

[divinephoenix]

So there's really a rumored fourth race?

What is it?

[scorpionwarrior]

Exactly as you said, A rumour =P

You know I was searching the web a while ago and found a "Starcraft Ghost" I wonder if it had/has any in between parts like from Brood war to SC 2

[divinephoenix]

Maybe it does, but we can't be sure. Blizzard is somehow secretive of what they'll do.

[Lestat69_99]

They pulled the plug on Starcraft Ghost... It was supposed to be a third person shooter putting you in the shoes of a ghost named Nova... Actually if you find the Book about her it is a great read, just another casulty in the gaming world now....

On a side note, Blizzard bought the rights to a fan site called Diablo 3......

[Cold Revolver]

The only thing I do not like about SC2 is that it has a limit cap.... I don't even think you have have 200 units on the field anymore...

The new units looks amazing however, seems like the Protoss have the upper hand with their mother ship..

[divinephoenix]

No more 200 units? Then how many can I have on the field? I love a big war T_T

[scorpionwarrior]

Lol, the reason they've done this is cause something about all units having more abilities or something. And so as to make it more fair to everyone, like newbs >.>

[divinephoenix]

The 200 units aren't really the number of units on the field, some are counted 2,3 or 4 and with the more abilities thing wouldn't they have to add more units used for just one unit.

[scorpionwarrior]

Yeah but I guess people will just have to think more strategically, though that means you can actually make strategies with what you use, sounds kinda more fun now.
