Will this be for PC only or will it come out for gaming consoles as well?

CdnBlu · 07-20-2010, 09:38 PM

Chances are it will be PC only

BlackMamba · 07-21-2010, 04:32 AM

yep, pc only. Blizzard learned their lesson after Starcraft 64. They also purposely make their games more accessible to the masses by designing them to be less graphic intensive (although they still look great IMO!)

BlackMamba · 07-26-2010, 02:05 PM

comes out tonight! Too bad I'm still waiting for my new computer to arrive...

PC/Mac only if I'm not mistaken.

A couple questions I was hoping someone could answer:

1) Is there a way to get SCVs to just auto-repair any mechanized unit close by? Or is there an "repair-move" (like attack-move) function for SCVs?

2) Speaking of attack-move, is there a more advanced functionality I'm not aware of? What are people doing when they're micro-ing hit and runs? Are they just right-clicking and when their units come to a halt they auto-attack anything nearby, then the user just right clicks elsewhere so they move again? Rinse and repeat?

Thanks in advance

Anyone lining up at midnight to pick this up?

My two brothers are going now to wait, but I can't afford a copy at the moment. I loaned one of them the money to get their copy (his car broke down, $900 to fix so yeah he was broke) so I guess it's a good thing I can patiently wait for my next check. lol

Lanfear · 07-27-2010, 01:52 AM

I'm definitely going to be there. 2 more hours! C'mon!

chefazn · 07-27-2010, 04:24 AM

Installing now =). Its 12 gb!

KamiAmaya · 07-27-2010, 04:51 AM

^I was just going to say that, 12gb!
My brothers just got back with it, one is installing now, the other's DVD drive failed O_O He has seriously bad luck, first his car, now his pc?! xD
Can't wait to hear some opinions on it ^_^

Grr, my Collector's edition arrived yesterday and I couldn't install it because it wasn't released until today (the installer stops with "the game hasn't been released yet!"), I'll have to wait until I get home to play it
