Speculation on the weekend

[KadajSouba]

The Starcraft2 Design Team has added a new type of Doodad: Generic Tree #7!

Sad... but true in some ways...

I hope that the SCLegacy has already planned the forums structure once the Beta begins. I mean form screenshots, videos, reviews...

"we have been hard at work on idle unit animations. Just wait till you see the mothership one..."

What will all these fan sites do when starcraft 2 is released and no one needs info from them any more?

Keep in mind that there are two expansions after WoL, plus there will be tons of patches. And even after all that, we will still be used for talking about SC2 esports and other Blizzard news. We will be around for a LONG time.

After that, it will pass away, as all other things do.

Blasphemer, I ought to step on your house with my recently requisitioned Thor.

But if each expansion doesnt offer any new units then.. Doesn't that mean there isn't anything left to talk about except lore?

[Pandonetho]

The Expansion will most likely include new units for the campaign at the very least, it'd be very counterproductive to their goals if they didn't, with trying to "expand the scope" and whatnot.

And new units aren't the only thing that can change the metagame, uogrades and research can too. Such as Charon boosters for the Goliath.

I think the discussion will just change. It'll go from all the speculative discussions, to ones about the storyline and lore, gameplay techniques, build orders, map techniques, etc. - I mean, people here still contribute to the Brood War discussions all the time.

Don't forget the map editor makes this game completely whatever you want it to be. As seen at Blizzcon, you can literally make SC2 into an third person shooter. the limits of this engine are basically none
