StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm - Vengeance Trailer

That looks awesome!

*squeals* i cant wait already have had teh collectors ed preordered for months

I'm going to pre-order it soon. I have an agreement with my older brother that we'll both get this so we can play some matches online.

New StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm "Vengeance Trailer"

I am so looking forward to getting this game.

I only play through the campaign,

I hope it is as good and as long as the original

I hope so. From the screenshots I've seen, it looks like Kerrigan has a command ship and as she progresses through the campaign, you'll get new mutations unlocked to power up the swarm.

i hope the campaign isnt just zerg

From what I've seen it will be a predominately Zerg campaign. Just like how the first installation was Terran based with a few protoss missions, it looks like this one will be zerg with a possibility of having some terran and protoss missions. I'm going to assume the third installation of the game will be a dominate Protoss campaign to finish the game.

For me tho.. I really liked the Terran campaign and I hope its not just a Zerg destruction add-on and they focus on increasing the plot line with some human missions.

I just updated SC2 

And for some reason there is unit lag thats so annoying, I select a unit and theres like a second delay, which doesnt sound like much but very annoying

anyone else get this with the latest patch

Hmm.. I'll update my SC2 tonight and see if that happens to me.

It finally updated. That was a huge patch and the optimization afterwards took about 30 minutes. I didn't see any noticeable lag, but I did notice that it reverted all my graphics settings. Check you graphic settings again because I didn't see any notification that my settings were changed back to default until I went into the options for changing settings.

I'm sooooooo excited, i just let mine update last night, but i ended up not playing anything afterwards because I would've gotten sucked in and stayed up all night and not gotten any sleep before work. I'll probably play tonight and see if i have any issues

They're live streaming multiplayer matches on their site and have a countdown to when the game will be released in each area.

I'm going to hit the store tomorrow and buy a physical copy. This is one of the few games I buy physical copies of anymore. Its like the end of an area for game boxes for me.

Damn another massive patch. I turned the game on again tonight to see if any other patches were available and yep.. The patch was over 4 GB. It started with optimizing files again and when I checked it again later I saw it had at least 4gb left to download.

I played a few missions last night, the cut scenes are amazing

I've been playing it for almost 5 hours now. The cut scenes are great. The swarm mutations are interesting. But I noticed that I am missing my terran army. Terrans were always my favorite species to play as. I guess I just need to get used to playing as the zerg.

I finished it, I agree, Terrans are my favourite race

Zerg to me doesnt matter what unit you use, just out number them and use Kerrigan to pew pew down the strong units

Story wise, Blizz has delivered again.

Annoying how long it takes to make expansions, as PVP is a massive part of SC2, so they focus on that not developing more story

Personally, every mission i use a stupid amount of exploding Banelings and multiply on death, = easy win

I'm still playing through the campaign.. Kerrigan seems like overkill. I almost wish she wasn't in the playable missions. Shes so overpowered I'm not actually learning how to play as the Zerg. I'd leave her at the base, but she kills everything so easily its hard to resist using her.

I do like the Hero unit concept they used back in warcraft 3,

But she is total overkill ;p

I've been using the spawn baneling buff and its pretty brutal. Along with the hunter baneling upgrade its so much damage she can fling at enemies. Its ridiculous overkill.

btw, if you want you can add me as a friend on SC2.

We could always do a round of co-op against some computer enemies sometime. I think I'm about half done with the campaign. The plot is getting good.
