Do you have a (legal) copy of the beta?

[Mooglefrooglian]

How can you say Bnet 2.0 is better? It limits you to 1 account, with a permanent name; they better be changing that after the beta is done. It also has no chat rooms, but they are apparently adding those after beta, which is fine.

But no, the little chat windows are utter fail. Complete with their fail with nVidias newer drivers (although, older ones fix alt tab problem) causing overheating, I have little faith. It looks pretty, but it looks like an art major thought it all up: very little functionality, all flair.

Again though, once you actually get into the game it is spectacular, and the editor looks like it will prove itself to be on par with the WC3 one at the very least. My main issue is with the horrid lobby, which is where I spent a fair amount of time on WC3.

 

[Andreja]

I'm in the god damn beta. Envy me puny mortals for you will never achieve my random luck of being chosen over millions of people who opted in. I laugh at your pathetic misery. HAR HAR HAR HAR!!!

 

[SasuhKun]

Only people such as Richard could've said that >_>

 

[Ss-4-Goku]

Got it last week. It was my first time seriously playing any melee type RTS.

Yes, i completed WC3's campaign with cheats and only played stuff like AoS's, RPs and such.

Even though i started playing 6 days ago. i'm in the silver league. Go me.

 

[l1lshadow]

[PrinceofIce]

I just checked my mail and I got the e-mail, I checked b.net and it was true I'm in beta downloading it all now.

 

[FrIkY]

Yeah, I have SC2 Beta but I have a problem with downloading maps. Every time I try to join a match or just download the map I get this error:

Picture

But, I somehow actually managed to download two maps and I can finally play it now. I can say that the Zerg are awesome, Protoss are incredible and Terran epic, I love them all!

The name is 'Cyratos' and identifier name is 'ragelance'.

 

[qqluqq]

[SasuhKun]

2 close friends got it and said that they're going to sell the extra keys. AHHHH THE RAGE.

 

[MGCǂSpectre]

[SasuhKun]

Really evil.

 

[MGCǂSpectre]

I previously won a pre-order copy of sc2 from a contest, now again from a contest won Beta access and last night I received the Blizzard email after so many times of 'no new messages' every time I entered my email. My 1st contest - battleforums in 2009, then, since Feb 2010: facebook, TeamLiquid, SC2FR, Voodoex3m/IGN, GosuGamers ep 2 and 3, Pandaria (war3 solo tour), other French site, IncGamers 1st contest without luck until now.

beta owners @Europe, here I come ;>

 

[SasuhKun]

Another happy costumer.

 

[The World Is Flat]

You mean you finally got a copeh of the beta? wow... i'd say you deserve it.

 

[Trilby]

I have one as well.
Trilby.spy if you want to add me.
EDIT: What leagues are you guys in? At the time of this posting, I'm in the mid ranks of the copper league D:

 

[Vikus]

I have only one account and I've been waiting patiently for my key, although since I got it I need a better graphics card so yeah.

 

[MGCǂSpectre]

You mean you finally got a copeh of the beta? wow... i'd say you deserve it.

Thanks. Yeah I really used lots of hours on contests and also only 1 account.

 

[The World Is Flat]

Well, yeah, but your aslo really exicted and into it more than anyone. share your experience please.

 

[Eldrazor]

I am in beta!

 

[SasuhKun]

Another Happy Costumer. Wee.

 

[MGCǂSpectre]

Well, yeah, but your aslo really exicted and into it more than anyone. share your experience please.

I have played SC1 for 2 years in the 90s, War3 for 7 years, I am a proud war3 player who was getting good. Im surprised that some war3 good players make their way to gold even platinum league and yet, I have a hard time winning o__O I mean I get war3 supply like 60-80 they always get over 100 supply. I know I have to do as well, but they are always do units faster.

P.S I selected Veteran as being an RTS player + ladder reset = getting mass good players. I dont complain but I cant win a game while actually playing well, I cant explain it. Im much better controling in battles all thx to my years in war3 but in macro... making much units, not.... So far I love it and have intention to play hard.

When I bought War3 roc and tft I did both competitive and mapmaking, I didnt play other games for that time, ever! I intend to do the same in SC2, as in ofc I will do mapmaking and recreate my city there, also various other maps and stuff, duh, but just mapmaking = what did I buy sc2 for?

 

[SasuhKun]

Trying to get SC and Broody so I can familiarize myself with it, for I never played them
If I cannot, I'll just stick to the lore. (is there any website talking about all the lore? I couldn't find any D

 

[The World Is Flat]

I'm in the beta. thanks to ralle. or my superdoner status. or both.

 

[MGCǂSpectre]

Congrats

and SasuKun, good choice. Im a war3 player and has to deal with SC players who are less good in battles but better in macro and they eventually win.

 

[The World Is Flat]

Then work on the marco, try and get a few builds down to pat.

 

[SasuhKun]

TheTerran, do you know where can I find the lore of SC? I found a incomplete one. It talked about until.... half of the zerg chapter of the game (not the expansion)

[SasuhKun]

Well, what I saw was more exact, with all the names. (For example, in the more common lore of wc3, the name Menethil is mentioned. In the game, it is NEVER EVER mentioned.)

But it IS the complete lore! Thanks :B

 

[The World Is Flat]

I know there a site that has the really detaied backstory of how they got to the korprolu sector...

anyhow, just got mah second key.

 

[SasuhKun]

SECOND!? Geez, I don't have even one. Those damn bastards.

Well, you have any friend to give it? (Of course you have, duh. Lucky bastard xD)

 

[MGCǂSpectre]

If you pre-order from gamestop, it comes with a beta key if they still have available keys.

 

[The World Is Flat]

O.0

Well i wish i had a second key.
(I was jk about a second one)

 

[MGCǂSpectre]

Well i wish i had a second key.
(I was jk about a second one)

I also need to give to 2 people keys... I really hope Beta continues until June 17, I dont want it to enter May.. Some huge giveaway is going on these days, in SCIncgamers like almost everyone is getting a key.

 

[elfian]

Ofcourse NOT ^^ Illegal FTW :]

 

[Dr Super Good]

Ofcourse I have the beta (have to keep uptodate with editing hehe).

Anyway, I wonder if this thread should be closed now, as so many people have beta. If not it should atleast be cleaned from double posts.

 

[SasuhKun]

Well, I'll need to express my immense joy when I finally recieve my beta key, be by tournament be by lucky account.

 

[rubentje777]

Im in the beta for a few weeks now its so cool! and i hope u all get a beta key!

 

[SasuhKun]

[Deleted member 177737]

[Kingz]
