StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty Hits Retail July 27

Not much to say here other than a date: July 27, the day StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty will hit retail shelves. So sayeth Blizzard (via a press release), and those guys don't typically commit to promises they can't make good on. So expect to get destroyed on Battle.net at the end of July by all the people who have been playing the beta for months before then!
 
Oh, you're still here? Hmm. Why don't you take a look at the incredible things people are already doing with the game's map editor?
 
  

Still not sure about Starcraft II

So close

woah

  HELL, IT'S ABOUT TIME!    

Can't play it, my computer sucks. Still, I'm sure it will be loved.

YES!

WOOOOOOOOOOO

Slammin'

brad, i have no clue wtf your last few sentence mean.

On my birthday? AWESOME

Hurray!

Damn....the guys at TeamLiquid and Battle.net were a month off.  Oh well, FINAL FUCKINGLY!

<watches video, throws banana>
Go banana!

1 day before my b'day. I'll be away for a whole month though so it's bad timing. By the time I get back I probably won't be able to win a game. :(
 
I bet it'll get the classic blizzard delay. I'm saying mid-late August.

July is a good time for liberty, certainly.

Even though I suck at the beta, I'll be picking this up.  Vs. matches against bots (from what I heard from someone, I'm not sure if that's true) and singleplayer will be awesome.

Heck, it is about that time period.

OHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSH.

cool

Hell. It's about time.

The winning strats I've seen in protoss games recently usually involve 8 or more warp gates and a warp prisim going around behind the enemy base and destroying econ before anything can be done about it. The best part is that you can probably tech to warping sooner than they can more than a ghost or two out, and I haven't seen too much ghost play.

wooooooooooow 
hyped about the release date, only because it means that Diablo 3 is next

" brad, i have no clue wtf your last few sentence mean. "

Starcrap.

I'll believe that's when it's coming out when I see it on shelves.

depending on when i decide to upgrade my PC, SC2 will be a purchase at the same time i think

Even though I hate RTS games this one strikes my interest

Woo finally, a release date!

Alriiiight :D Well I'm glad the game is out in the summer, i can't wait to play, i have been getting good practice on the beta and i haven't gotten a single bit bored of it, the game is awesome. BTW, im a fellow Protoss player too and i gotta get my build order fixed up so i can kick some ass since i have been getting trouble from Terran as well because of the marauder patch.

That means Cataclysm won't be out until Sept at least. Probably more like October. Fail Blizzard, fail.

WOO!
 
Also, Colossi with range upgrade melt M&Ms. Throw in a few Psi Storms for support and they should go down in no time.

This

 "So who else is still neck-deep in the beta? As a Protoss player I'm having a terrible time against Terrans lately, since immortals were nerfed a bit in the last patch and the marauder's concussive shell came back on the scene in a major way. Everybody loves to drop the ghost's EMP on 'toss these days, too, making immos and void rays all but worthless against a huge mass of marauders and marines. Little help?  "

 

makes aboslutly no sense ot me, maybe I should read up on starcraft. :)

i love seeing what everyone on here who is addicted to this has to say about it. It's like being able to go to a chatty heroin addicts forum. I'll treat this like heroin and stay the heck away.

Is that a worldwide release date? (Interested in Europe specifically)

Read: Starcraft 2 to be announced delayed by July 27th

I don't like Terran either because my douchey-proxy-gateway-zealot rush isn't feasible because those damn Terran can just lift off and stay in the air all day and make my zealots useless. Yes, that means I must actually get GAS to build sentries and stalkers. Shame. 
 
Oh, by the way, super-psyched for this. Fuck yes.

I love how Brad has become this authority on SC2. The beta comes out, he's "yeah I'm gonna mess around, see what's what" and now it's incomprehensible insider jargon. I love it, keep it up.

Perfect time, still plenty of summer

Hell, it's about time..

The only thing I've found that works against ghosts+mauraders is charging zealots. They charge in fast enough that if the ghost EMP's it hits the ghosts and drains their energy as well.

Everyone has a tough time against Terrans 
 
wolololololmedivacs that can transport
