Great News For All Starcraft Fans!

Recommended Posts

It seems that Blizzard is finally going to make a sequel to Starcraft!

 

Taken from Gamespot.com

 

StarCraft II continues the epic saga of the Protoss, Terran, and Zerg. These three distinct and powerful races will clash once again in the fast-paced real-time strategy sequel to the legendary original, StarCraft. Legions of veteran, upgraded, and brand-new unit types will do battle across the galaxy, as each faction struggles for survival.

 

Featuring a unique single-player campaign that picks up where StarCraft: Brood War left off, StarCraft II will present a cast of new heroes and familiar faces in an edgy sci-fi story filled with adventure and intrigue. In addition, Blizzard will again offer unparalleled online play through Battle.net, the company's world-renowned gaming service, with several enhancements and new features to make StarCraft II the ultimate competitive real-time strategy game.

 

Features

 

* Fast-paced, hard-hitting, tightly balanced competitive real-time strategy gameplay that recaptures and improves on the magic of the original game

* Three completely distinct races: Protoss, Terran, and Zerg

* New units and gameplay mechanics further distinguish each race

* Groundbreaking single-player "story-mode" campaign

* Vibrant new 3D-graphics engine with support for dazzling visual effects and massive unit and army sizes

* Full multiplayer support, with new competitive features and matchmaking utilities available through Battle.net

* Full map-making and scripting tools to give players incredible freedom in customizing and personalizing their gameplay experience

I suggest going here and reading more. I'm sure you will be excited, I know I am. The graphics look great and if the video demo is going to be anything like the final product it seems that they will be incorporating full 3D into Starcaft 2 (goosebumps) as well as much better graphics and tons of new units! A warning to all: BE prepared to upgrade your video card inorder to play this game, I know I'm going to need to.

It seems a little too much of a ripoff of C&C3 TS.
Units have the same concept and what not.
But being such a dedicated SC fan, I will def. buy this.


It seems like the same to me honestly, but I'm also a huge SC fan and I would love to be able to play one that doesn't look...well let's face it the old starcrafts look like crap compared to today's RTS games. I would definitely hope that they have the same gameplay and that not a lot has changed, I sometimes hate how RTS are so scatter-brained now with how you have to perform so many duties at once, starcraft was always more fun as you had plenty to do, but it never to the point that it was staggering or down right stupid to make that many tasks you need to do all at once basically. Then again maybe that's just me, but I really can't wait for this to come out.
