cstudabaker Blizzard email this morning says SC2 beta is "fast approaching"! Can't wait! #starcraft2 @StarCraft
about 2 hours ago from TweetDeck
Anyone else see the email?
And who is this and why should would pay attention to what he has to say?
Well, whoever it was has one of two intentions. First, he could have mentioned this to Blizzard tweets to get some attention for themselves as they know the world is watching #starcraft...
Or, it's a legit email, and he's too excited to contain it.
I will admit though, I think I've heard the line regarding an email saying "Fast approaching" on another website, I just can't think of it at this moment.
And "Fast approaching" means what in Blizzard? -.- 6 months maybe??? yaaaay!!
What matters more... is that if this is true, an email was sent out. This is one of the key facets that Blizzard has been hinging on for the last two years.
"When beta gets closer, we'll communicate with you".
And then i ask: If a beta is close in blizzard how close is close?? 6months????? yaaaay!!!!
This likely came from the latest Blizzard Inside email which surfaced this morning. Taken verbatim:

W ith the StarCraft II beta test fast approaching, the StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty website has recently been reforged and reloaded with new info on the features we've unveiled since BlizzCon 2009. Head over to the newly revamped website and check out the newest single player missions, multiplayer details, heroic characters and Battle Reports for Wings of Liberty, the first epic chapter in the upcoming StarCraft II trilogy.
"Fast approaching" sounds an awful like like "in the final stretch" so I'm not about to get my hopes up. Either they release it in the next week or they announce another delay and I give up all hope on the game.
People shouldn't look into this to much considering the beta has been fast approaching for a year now.
Also, i'm sure the beta is soon, just not in the next few days like everyone thinks it may be.
It's either going to come out of nowhere real fast...or take its sweet time.
Either way, no beta still right now
Thanks for sharing that Blazur.. that's a good call and explains this fully.Quote:

The only thing I think we all can do it look forward to this friday (to a potentially chuckle-worthy SC2beta skit) and February 10th to see if they say anything regarding updates on SC2 at all. To be sincere, I would really be happy to hear "on schedule" but even if they say it's delayed, at least it's new information...whether we like it or not.
