I don't really care for the Zerg. I just think it's silly people want the game to be perfect on release.

Keep in mind as well Dragoonx, that expansion set is at least a YEAR away. A year of these broken Zerg? How do you think the game's going to work with 1/3 of the races unplayable?

The other thing that bothers me is the voice acting. Almost universally terrible amongst the Protoss and Zerg, and a good handful of the Terran. THAT won't be fixed in a patch later.

I'm sorry man, we have waited way too long to receive something that isn't up to par.

1) I am pretty sure the race is not "unplayable"
2) Voice acting is meh
3) If its sub par and not valuable on the set price point, don't buy it. Not sure what to say. Play the original since its obviously the better product.

Starcraft 2 is the same price as their previous RTS releases.

It was a joke man. Bad economy and controversy... ah fuck it.

In that case my dearest apologies Squid Deity. Don't taze me bro.

[DemolitionSquid]

Don't taze me bro.

We need a goddamn rep system already.

[Dragoonx]

We need a goddamn rep system already.

I don't recall if the old forums had that. Then again I was mostly a lurker back then.

A game like this needs a countdown timer. Big fat sci fi font.

Best I could come up with...

See, the inherent difference is that this isn't a questions of 10HP here and 20 seconds there, this is an issue of the units themselves, and their abilities. Those are not the kind of problems that SC1 had, and they certainly aren't the kind of issues that can be fixed by patches.

Blizzard seem to be rather unwilling to change the current unit rosters, or at least unwilling to do it hastily. However, considering that Blizzard did add new heroes thro'ugh patches in WarCraft III, I would not be surprised if they will profoundly modify the game through patches (and expansions definitely call to that in any case).

Besides, I would argue that just the singleplayer campaign alone is worth the wait.

Not sure there's any way Chess and Checkers couldn't be imbalanced since the biggest differene is between the color of the things.

I know there's a way to make a racist joke out of that somehow...
