With the way things are going on the "Join The Dominion" section on the Official StarCraft II website I think it will hit 100% on release day. I'm pretty sure people have made the prediction already but I wonder what they will unveil at 100%?

Probably nothing that would be more interesting than the game itself.
What exactly are we going to care about one release day?
Oh, yay, new artwork. Just what I need .. to look at on my way to the store to buy the game.

Maybe it could be the intro cinematic or something? /droooooooooooooooooooooooool
(ever since Perfecttear mentioned it could maybe be datamined from that (maybe false) Collector's Edition there was a post about, I haven't been able to stop myself from thinking about how the introduction cinematic might be - I hope it's not just the "Hell it's about time cinematic...)
I think there's 2. The "Hell, it's about time" cinematic with Tychus, followed by the one with Zeratul vs Kerrigan.Quote:

Yep, can't say I disagree.Quote:

Well, it's not very likely... I heard that Blizzard said there would be only two short videos in 20 unlocked items and of course these two videos were all unlocked.Quote:

Agree 100%. I hate when Games do this kind of content release, and it's such horrible content.Quote:

Another trailer.
It wasn't meant as the unlucking feature would be the thing to drool about.Quote:

See? I just did it again. :)
But yeah. I don't think I've ever seen a Blizz intro cinematic that hadn't already been released before the game (maybe D2:LoD?, dunno) so I think in the end I'll go for the Tychus + Zeratul/Kerrigan, but it would be much more awesome if the Z/K would be the one introducing the Protoss Campaign, and some imba Zerg ambush on some no-good terrans would kickstart WoL. (SC1 Introduction cinematics are just so great!)
/droooooooooooooooooool again sorry. :p
Why not just wait until you can boot up the game for the first time and be treated to the intro for the first time as well?Quote:

(isn't that how the progress bar works?)
Why do you think that battle will be an intro cinematic? I'm pretty sure its been stated that it would tie in with the Protoss part of the campaign.Quote:

If you read carefully what I wrote, I did say I hoped seeing the Z/K battle combined with the Protoss Campaign, and that I would love seeing the intro consisting of some no-good terrans on a far away planet all of a sudden surrounded and devoured by huge masses of Zerg that pop out of nowhere. Very much like the SC1 original intro cinematic where the salvagers get pwned by the protoss.Quote:

I'm also led to believe this since I've never seen a Blizz intro cinematic that hadn't already been released before the game.
Am I clear now? :p
Nope. A little to left--- That's good. Hold it. No! Go back. There you go.Quote:

Heh. "Explain to meee, how we're gonna get all this home?"
That's one hell of a cinematic. The guy in the ship gets even his head exploded right in front of the camera. Hehe. Now that's StarCraft!
