When comparing this to their activities with past WoW beta tests, this is about on schedule. I remember TBC hiring about 2-4 more CMs before beta... and WotLK obtained at least 4 more. Now I'm not saying we'll get the caliper of support... but it would make sense to repeat successful practices on other products as well.

In short, good news.

Interesting - Do you happen to recall how much time between the hiring and the beta announcements? - thanks

Within 1-2 months. More towards 1. While it's good to speculate that things could be the same with SC2, please remember that this is a different beast in a few ways... Therefore this trend could be different as well.

All i see here is a disclaimer :P

Basically, don't attempt to assassinate gifted if what he said gave you the wrong impression and you get massively disappointed again...

This is blizzard though, so expect to be massively disappointed at least one more time before the joy begins.

... unless the last time was actually the last time.. in which case the next time could be joy.

I'm the eternal optimist on this subject
