  • You know what Stop acting Like you know everything maybe hes actually telling the truth huh? stop jumping to conclusions..

  • Wow hes soo cute!

  • thumbs up if you hate people that make "thumbs up comments"...

  • Lol it's pretty shinny now

  • Down With No LAN capability!!! But yet like he said just all get together and hook up to a router.

  • the people who believe this guy is a lifenoob.

  • such lies

  • The lan question was such bullshit. Everybody knows it's all about money, they dont want you to download sc2 and have the opportunity to play offline against each other. Stupidest thing blizzard has ever done from esports perspective, why not just make everyone haveing to login to battlenet once to prove that its a legit copy of the game you got in order to play offline? -.-

  • @lefflan This is to prevent piracy

  • @Akantorz12 and to prevent the privasy for the players with a lag free starcraft II with some azm LAN with the pals in the same room drinking coke, no risk to get dc, no risk for a hacker on the other side on the map who might use map hacks.

    It's not the game that makes pisst off, it's the lags.... and I want my lan back.

  • You know what? I agree with you. I want LAN back. Good old days playing WC3 with my friends with no lag at all, but if there was LAN, there would be people refusing to buy another copy of the game just because a friend of him has one. So I guess it's to get more legit players to play the game instead of just having a copy of the original legit copy, dismiss what I said if you do not get my point.

  • @lefflan Your bullshit no LAN doesnt give them money, Battle.net IS FREE it doesnt get them money you fucking idiot go away, Plus they dont want piracy if you dont have to register you can install it on 10 of your friends computers (assuming you have even 1 friend) and you guys can all play starcraft with no limits and the total ammount of money paid is only 60 bucks, so no it isnt bullshit and it has nothing to with money, logging in to Battle.net GIVES THEM NO MONEY

  • @FacerollCinema You're retarded lol

  • @Nihlathak12 thank you

  • @FacerollCinema

    you are indeed very stupid

  • @TheDolorousSpirit yes well since you have no grounds for your claims I shall disregard them, good day madam

  • @FacerollCinema i dont think hes refering to the price of battle.net, which i agree is free, hes talking about how in sc1 you could install it on more than 1 computer and play it in lan with others, which you cannot do in sc2.  You can play single player, but not with any other people. Thats how blizzard is making money. I think you just misread.

  • @lefflan they didn't want people to be able to buy one copy of starcraft, and then play a lan game with 7 different people in a basement. that didn't make sense economically.

  • good game, still not better than red alert 3 though.

  • @imnotbad9 What?!

  • @imnotbad9 :(

  • they have ruined it!!!!!!!

  • StarCraft II is way more balanced than the original game. I mean in the original it took you ages to destroy a building, and you could only command 16 or so troops at a time! Plus, the population limit also sucked. Well IMO I liked SC2 a lot more than the first one. Just my 2 cents.

  • @vnhcoltridge the population limit's the same as it was in brood war sir.

  • @Vayshen I mean the selectable units. Also you can build a bigger army here than in the original. I think there are less population requirements for the units :-??

  • @vnhcoltridge Nah if anything units use more population than they used to. Zerg don't have any 1 population unit iirc except zerglings which are technically 0.5

    Being able to select more units is not the same as (building) a bigger army if that's what you meant. It just means that in brood war you had you manage your army better due to the cap of 12.

  • @Vayshen I meant being able to command a bigger army at one time. You can't say this game is all about tactics (for example, Company of Heroes is a tactical RTS - you use cover, flanking tactics etc). If there's no real tactical situations in an RTS, I see no point in selecting only a small number of units (like in the first StarCraft), if you get my point.

  • @vnhcoltridge Ah gotcha; I stupidly tend to mix tactics with strategy =p. CoH definitely has more tactics to it, great game =)

  • @vnhcoltridge IS that what you call balance?

  • (Corrected Awnser to why 3 games) We want more money*

  • @mxchump :(

  • THUMBS IF U HATE ADS PLAYING AT START OF VIDS

  • @LookHere3 THUMBS UP IF YOU ARE TOO RETARDED TO PRESS F5

  • @PandaBearAl does f5 just reload it?

  • @LookHere3 I never see ADS anymore :) Got `` AD blocker plus´´ A free AD blocker :) Google it ;)

  • I HATE THE GREY BAR!

  • Considering that most of the story is filler involving a Rastafarian assassin and a redneck Cuban, I feel quite ripped off. At least the gameplay is great, and the multi-player certainly does no disappoint...neither does the graphics. Maybe they should have focused on the REAL story rather than giving us these "new and exciting ways to explore the *giggle* BACKSTORY" ;-D

  • Reason why they split it up into three parts: Money.

  • @Covaxius

    Well, that's one way to look at it, but considering how much content is in Wings of Liberty, it's more of a complete game than any Call of Duty title.

  • @Danceofmasks

    And compared to an RPG it's less of a complete game. Who gives a fuck. Point is they're holding out to make more bank.

  • lol they split this game into three parts because they want to make more money. Good job actiblizzard treating us like the fools that buy the dlc mappack for modern warfare 2

  • lol I liked the last question...

  • im glad they stuck to the traditional rts style :D. there are really stupid producers out there who think that changing the rts tyle is better. but i think that the traditional rts style is what defines the rts genre

  • @Sh4d0wst3p

    Agree, i played every "innovative" RTS out there and they were all boring or dumbed down, SC2 is perfection.

  • They removed LAN party because we can crack the game and play offline with buddy, thats why the producer talk bs... about more ppl going online....

  • @JusticeDK well, at least you understand. most people just scream and scream.

  • damn i cant wait till i get my new computer. i wanna play this so badly on my 22" :P

    i didint even watch the ign review of sc2 so it doesnt get spoiled for me

  • @PcJaiden828 dont watch the review by ign. its really underrated

  • "So, It's Pretty Shiny Now, Go Play SC2!"

  • i love how the review is gone

  • Kaosgoblin I'm prettey sure that you don't need a subscription to play Starcraft online

  • @KylesITOUCH you need a subscription for the internet

  • "Why did you remove LAN Play?"

    -Well, we really wanted to encourage people to play online.

    Oh, I see, wasnt enough people bought the game, but like your other franchise WoW, you had to make sure you could keep fucking their wallet month after month by forcing them online so you can not only financially rape, but also keep track of statistics and remove from our hands the rights of the consumer to decide for ourselves what we wanted to do with the game once paid for. Greedy cunts.

  • @kaosgoblin only russians have to pay monthly fees mainly because that their version coasts around 15$~ and they pay like 5$ a month , also thats because russia is nr1 pirate country , they pirate everything !

  • lol at 3:38 translated he says

    "bitch let activision touch starcraft 2 you must be tripping balls"

  • 1:55 decode: the biggest factor is that so we can make more money.

  • everytime activision touches something.. things like MW2 without leaning and no LAN playing happens

    weeeeird shit

  • battlenet 2.0, no LAN, regionalization of SC ... theese are like the biggest mistakes Blizz have ever made

  • lmaoo at the LAST question

  • No LAN is pretty retarded in my opinion.

  • Is the story line good? If so Id be game to play it. Im more of a campaine person than a multiplayer one. Also when is Diablo 3 going to be released!?!?!?!?!

  • it's like world of warcraft but not as nerdy.

  • @iamnotaterroristtall

    That makes no sense.

    WoW and this game have pretty much nothing in common, besides the developer.

  • @iamnotaterroristtall woa thats so ignorant.

  • @MaxDorval not really ignorant it's just WoW is such a sad game LOL i mean like you must have no social life at all if you play it like most people do. im not saying everyone plays it like mad. Starcraft looks good i'll give it that it's just as addictive and people see it as being AS nerdy as WoW so they will not play it.

  • @iamnotaterroristtall well all games are nerdy arent they. but no starcraft is just considered more nerdy from people who dont know what it is and make the link with WoW because of blizard. WoW is a long and boring grinding oriented MMO and starcraft 2 is an RTS.. its 2 completely different gender. an rts really isnt a social life eater its just a normal game. but i can get how people who dont ahve a clue about any of those games can get confused.

  • @MaxDorval Well to be fair all games are social eaters but it is a well known fact that the call of duty series, starcraft, final fantasy and WoW game *all of different genres* are social eaters but honestly which of those games screems out to you as EXTREME social eaters?

  • @iamnotaterroristtall MMO are mostly the extremes one because of their grinding mechanics. thats why the only mmo i ever played was guild wars which is grind free =D

  • @MaxDorval you my friend are a decent guy. (:

  • @iamnotaterroristtall ahah you seem pretty decent too dear.

  • Starcraft 2 is such a mediocre game, it should have received a 6.5 - 7 at most. Too bad the Blizzard fanbois will eat up anything Blizzard poops out at them.

  • @dkzero

    wow ur an idiot...

  • @dkzero Lol have you even tried it? and if you have then this just means that you suck and can't comprehend a strategy game, go back to modern warfare noob

  • LOL last question.

  • WHATA GOD

  • @cerro98 Your an idiot.

  • @Kevin41894 You're*

  • @Kevin41894 i was only joking you retard!!!

  • @cerro98 No, you weren't, your only saying that after you probably got 20 hate messages.

  • Gaming companies need to stop removing LAN features, such as stupid move.

  • @BratedVideos Well it was a pretty stupid way to milk money when we got such an amazing game with much much more content than most modern games and it took them 5 years to make. Oh wait you're just ignorant.

  • @BratedVideos haha the guy that was interviewed, his last name is Milker. haha the irony.

  • @BratedVideos I dont mind it as long as the other 2 campaigns will be as awesome as he first, ofc only if it wo't be to expensive ( > .> activision)

  • @BratedVideos dude the Terran campaign is about 15 hours long, that's a lot longer than the story mode in some other games that are being released. Also, since you don't pay monthly for Starcraft 2, it would be a terrible move to release 40+ hours of campaign gameplay in one release from a business standpoint.

  • @olit1234

    What does LENGTH matter in a RTS.. Come on.. Think before typing something.

  • so the whole SC2 story will take 30 years? lolwut

  • @YourMumsHero actually works, thanks :)

  • its not like they didnt include good features they just removed old, already conquered, great features. for no reason.

  • lol that last one got me in the gut hard XD

  • Kudos for not going away from the RTS genre tradition and not be like EA that screwed up CnC4 -_-

  • whos the guy with the big cigar in the blue armor suit ??

  • @Yabrince Tychus Findlay

  • wow he is lieing so much..

    they split the game for 3 parts so people will buy more and it will give them more money.

    why no lan ? because people hack the game on lan and can play it with out buying it, they don't want it so they removed the lan

  • @MrGaky Really if anyone can complain with the story packed into this one entry of the series and what gameplay already provided, I can't see them really having much else to do...

    And I think we already seen it coming by a longshot anyways, I was actually expecting to see less than what was provided with the release - and tbh there , the necessity of an online connection has pretty much prevailed across the map as far as PC gaming goes and I hope it sticks. Not saying they still won't hack it..

  • @MrGaky Im sorry, do work for Blizzard too? No? Then shut up and quit pretending like you know stuff.

  • @samrulz7 what if i said i do

  • @MrGaky Yea... I don't think a 15 year old who lives in Israel works for a multi-million dollar North American based company.

  • @samrulz7 you know i say trought

    so just shut up

  • @MrGaky Lol nerd rage

  • @samrulz7 me raging ? Lol

    you said for your self: Im sorry, do work for Blizzard too? No? Then shut up and quit pretending like you know stuff.

    i think you are the nerd rager :)

  • @MrGaky Not in the slightest kid. All I said is that you should actually know what you're talking about before saying stupid shit.

    Comprende? Or do you want me to spell it out for you

  • @samrulz7 look at what every one els are talking about ? or you cant read

    they make the game to be in 3 parts tomilk money from people

    that is all

    now stfu

  • @MrGaky Just because a lot of people think that, doesn't make it correct you tool. Since you don't work for Blizzard you have little to no idea what their initiative is, therefore that makes you, among others, biased fags. Or maybe you can't wrap your little LB head around that.

    Cause really, I don't give a fuck about what you think, but don't go around thinking you know everything. And for fucks sake learn to spell.

  • @samrulz7 again

    you maybe you don't care wasting money on shit =/

    i do

    so go ahead ! pay 3 times for 1 game

  • @MrGaky Did I even fucking say I was going to buy the game in the first place? God damn you're arrogant.

  • @samrulz7

    You're not buying SC2. What the fuck is wrong with you.

  • @Covaxius I mean I got Wings of Liberty, but I won't be getting the 2nd and 3rd parts.

  • uhh LAN?

  • Till it kills your cpu.

  • Yeah, a full length movie just like Final Fantasy. Because everyone loved that.........

  • 1:50 to make more moneh

    2:30 - to totally piss everyone off

    3:16 - yes, they told them to split it into 3 parts to milk you of your money

  • @fleetwoodsucks no doubt

  • @fleetwoodsucks starcraft 2 weights 7 Gigs and thats when they polished really well the cutscenes the gameplay and if they wanted all 3 campaign races together it would prob suck since ti would of been rushed OR we would of had to wait more years

  • @bullmad43 No, Sc1 had 3 races and that game was more balanced had a better story and superb graphics.

  • one thing left to say is that they got a terrible server.,..

  • So this is what those nerds were up to during lunch in high school. All that majic, starcraft, warcraft and nerdcraft stuff...

  • Bioware have made a new "world" in mass effect. I mean think off all the things they made up for that, didn't take them 12 years so make the second game...

    SC2 is great game though.

  • hey yeah wtf is activsion doing over there? have they even done anything since they joind

  • This guy is such a big fat liar.

  • *snatches guest pass stashed away on the bottom left corner of the screen* :D

  • SC2 too is fun, but in all honestly Blizzards way of trying to make more profit made me return the game, I'm back to playing SC1, I'm already having bad feelings of what's going to become of Diablo III

  • any chance for world of starcraft?

  • @thielenm Why would you want such a thing? They've butchered almost if not all of warcraft's lore over the past few years, and they've bleed it dry. I hope to never see that happen to the Starcraft or Diablo universes.

  • @deathlustx oh yea thats a better idea! world of diablo!

  • @thielenm lol

  • HE CONTINUED LAUGHING AFTER HIS MOUTH STOPPED MOVING HOLY CRAP

  • THANKS FOR REMOVING LAN. In my school, we play starcraft (secretly, and yet nubs can play YuGiOh in the halls) and cannot access the Internet. It's not like everyone has an Internet Connection whenever they want to play and have a laptop computer. I'M RAGING OUT.

  • they didn't polish theeir mikes

  • Question: so why did you eliminate chat lobbies? and making it impossible to meet up with random people?

    Answer: Because .........i honestly dont know the answer to this question

  • Blizzard could make a fortune by making supposed Professional Editions of Starcraft 2, which would come with LAN support for professional competition in countries like South Korea. Now the professionals in Korea won't even touch Starcraft 2 because the slightest B.Net lag will set them off and away from the game.

  • Question: Well since you are splitting the game up into 3 parts which equals 3X the money, Why didnt you pay IGN off for a better review like COD MW2?

    Answer: Because we are so fucking jewish

  • @BratedVideos

    They're going to be 2 expansions. Campaigns + added units, etc. for multiplayer. Just like Brood War.

  • @S2YEscape

    Well, actually they did split the game in 3 parts, you silly boy.

    Didn't you hear that you will only be able to play in multiplayer with those people who have the same number expansion packs as you do? And you will have only 1/3 of the campaigns without the expansion packs, And you won't have all the units with no expansion packs.

  • @TrashyPatty

    You mean, JUST like an expansion? Just how people with Brood War didn't play with people that stuck with SC1? The prices are going to be $40 per expac, not a full price game. You silly, silly boy.

  • @S2YEscape

    Lolwut?

  • The original idea for Warhammer 40k as a tabletop game started in 1987. The development for Starcraft started in 1995. Though the Warhammer 40k franchise is older, Starcraft is older as a video game.

  • I personally hate RTS's but if Starcraft was a fist person shooter or something like that I would play it but alas not:( lol

  • @ashboy1994vids lol lucky you, 85% of every game made now a days is a first person shooter. don't you ever get sick of same rehashed shit over and over?

  • the game is far from perfect, specially the story.....i know starcraft came first, but they are pulling the mass effect/reapers thing only with the xel naga, the original starcraft story was much better, oh yeah and that shit they do to Karrigan at the end is BS......the game is still addicting as crack tho,i just don't like how they dont get professional writters to make a better story for us......

  • @Iwannaplayssbb Doesnt matter game is still fun. story can go to hell

  • I have a question. Why couldent you think of an original idea and had to rip of Warhammer?

  • @Winsis And where the game rips off warhamme?. I have palyed both and i dont think they have anything in common :)

  • @Winsis lmfao ... facts pls !!

    Starcraft is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay older than warhammer :)

  • @Winsis starcraft is older ...

  • "They split the game into three parts to make more money" blah blah. Even if they included all three campaigns you would still buy the two expansions.

  • I have SC2 and it is amazing, but that whole lan thing is just stupidity on blizzards part. Also the online mode just feels so stale and lonely. There are no chatrooms. Apart from that, its an amazing game.

  • hey blizzard guess what only 1% of the worlds population has internet and yes i did my research

  • WTB THE ZERG CAMPAIGN NOW!!!!!lol....thats not gona be til like what??? 2013?

  • has anyone's browse video section changed?

  • Where the fuck did you hide the firebats...

  • I want to know how they are going to continue the StarCraft universe after the Protoss expansion pack... I just hope they don't make like a World of StarCraft MMORPG. I think this game series is good enough as a RTS and makes you think carefully about what could happen if you choose to attack/ defend in certain ways on the harder difficulty on the campaigns and online.

  • @XXF34RTHETWINSXX omg GOD NO WORLD OF STRARCRAFT

    NONONONONONONONONO!

  • @BratedVideos your kinda dumb

  • isn't starcraft a national sport in korea?

  • @CDDCX yeah

  • @CDDCX games in general is a national sport and the people that play there are beastly as hell

  • @CDDCX yes

  • @CDDCX i know it is in japan probably in korea as well :P

  • @CDDCX A national sport? THE national sport.

  • @CDDCX its so big the air force has its own team in starcraft XD

  • @CDDCX yap

  • @CDDCX no getting to the internet cafes that play starcraft before others is the sport. It's usually not played cleanly.

  • @CDDCX it is ;)

  • @CDDCX yes, yes it is....

  • @BratedVideos I would like to wait longer for the other parts.

    ...

  • - Why did you decide to split the game into three parts?

    - Money... I mean storyline!
