I've run into a bit of a problem. I don't know if I'll still be living in this state come the end of July, so I can't pre-order it at a store. And I don't know if I can change a shipping address after I've made a purchase. I really want that CE version, though.

I know you can change a shipping address of a pre-order on Amazon.com. Don't know about other options.

I'm a little annoyed in a way, since I just got the beta. If i had know about certain promotions I could have been playing the beta for months! ARGH!

Was on during the Laker game tonight. Jesus...that was so awesome. It makes me want it NOW. Like, NOW now. Not end of next month now.

EDIT:

Replaced with a better version from the official Starcraft 2 youtube channel.

If your interested in the MP part of SCII, this guy has some great tips for players not in the upper tier leagues.

I'm looking forward to the beta starting up again before the release date.

Watched the first one. That was incredibly helpful. I've been debating trying this out when it releases. Thanks a lot. :)

I find it hilarious with about a week and a half before release, I get into the beta.

They've unlocked all of the AI levels for computer controlled opponents, so I should get some fun out of it before the game is released. Playing my brother's beta with the very easy AI was pathetically easy.

Even better is that the beta ended yesterday(Monday). So I got to be in beta for a whole 3 days!

Though, on the bright side...by this time next week, I'll have been playing Starcraft 2 for at least 2 hours.

My zerglings did not frolic. :( Being overseas, I can only hope my copy arrives sooner rather than later.

I got the same beta invite, I'm pretty sure it was a "final weekend server stress test".

I wasn't sure I was going to buy this because my laptop is getting kind of old, but that was a pretty cool trailer and it looks like the story for the game will be exceptional.

I'll probably buy this game...........................................
.......................
...
..
........ when it's actually finished, in one package, and not split up into thirds.


But then I don't really play strategy games in multiplayer. If I did, I'd probably be all over this.

Whats the deal with that by the way? Each campaign is "sold seperately" or something? Are they all released simultaneously? Is there a price point for each?

The first SC2 game, Wings of Liberty, contains all multiplayer features, but it only contains the Terran campaign. Note that the Terran campaign is about 30 missions long, or as long as the entire SC1 game. At some point in the future, Blizzard will release an expansion pack (it may be standalone, or it may require WoL) which will contain the Zerg campaign. Then after that will be another expansion which contains the Protoss campaign.

I don't know any pricing other than for WoL, which is $60 for the basic game and $100 for the CE.

edit: According to the SC2 faq at starcraft2.com:
Quote:
How will the expansion sets impact multiplayer gameplay?

The expansion sets will add new content to each race for use in multiplayer matches. This could include additions such as new units, abilities, and structures, along with new maps and Battle.net updates.
