I think most of us have finished the sc1+expansion campaigns, at least 1-2 times, i know i was addicted.
Yeah, the sc2 lore is nice.
I am excited about SC2, just for it being like a comrade of the Warcraft sequence.
I am excited about SC2, for involving the total opposition of Warcraft 3 by packing a tactical strategy/fantasy game into a futuristic instead of medieval suit.
I am excited about SC2, because i am a fan of the Starcraft 2 campaign-story, it's very creative and they managed it to make me excited and to question myself: how does it continue?
I am excited about the Beta, because my team and me want to transfer the widely popular Battle Tanks map we're making into SC2. It's simply matches SC2 even more than Warcraft i guess.
I am a bit angry about Blizzard since they denied our request of getting a key for the developement of it, and not a single person of the team got a beta key.
That's the reason why supporting me in the achievement of a betakey directly results in our work to continue a famous map on another game - without leaving Warcraft 3 totally - and in our endless thanks.
Some members of the team, like Exodus, the previous head developer, or me, already created systems for SC2 without knowing that they'd match the engine or without knowing, wether somekind of "phoenix-fire"-styled ability is included in SC2, just because we nearly gave up the hope to receive a key.
You, Ralle, gave us a new hope!
And hell, i am excited because the graphics are just looking that awesome, that i instantly would like to check out, how much tank resources there already are included ingame!
(Edit: On a side note, my mother would love to play the beta as well (we'd of course share keys).
I guess such a behaviour should be promoted)
So, when's the deadline?
I think top mappers should get some, as we (beta-ppl) need some kewl maps once the galaxy editor comes out! Blizzard has said that they aim to release it this month, so it'll probably get released next month.
Maybe give out 10 beta keys to the top 10 mappers on hive? You could decide who the best mappers are by simply looking at downloads, or creating a mapping contest, or even a poll.
I really think mappers should get the beta key, as we are a mapping community.
I repeat myself...Ralle told you(all people out there) to ask for beta cd-keys, not to make him decide how he is gonna give them.
That's his decision and i think he cannot change it after making a thread like this.
*And really, this one made me laugh, you people that agree that those cd-keys should be given to the best map creators, agree because you think you are one of them?![]()
I have tested and they are legit.
Come on raise the bars! Tell me why your lives suck without this key!
