Blizzard Issues New Starcraft II Teaser Screens

btarunr · Jan 6, 2009

RTS giant Blizzard let loose a few new teaser screens of its much anticipated title, Starcraft II, sourced by SK Gaming. The screens include stills of ongoing campaigns demonstrating the visuals and graphic design of the game. One of those hype building measures from a company that has so far stood and delivered to all its hype. Starcraft II is on course for launch later this year. Enjoy the screens. A larger archive of Starcraft II images sourced from Blizzard so far can be found here.

Many Thanks to Castiel for sending this in.

Castiel · Jan 6, 2009

Can not wait for the game to come out!!!

Cheeseball · Jan 6, 2009

I hope the gameplay is similar or better than the original Starcraft. I can't wait to take on some Koreans again!

Can't wait until I have my flying V's of Battlecruisers... raining death down upon the lands. Yamato cannons... oo baby. And what's this? Giant walkers? Several squads of them too.

Castiel · Jan 6, 2009

I will have to find the videos, but I have found videos of some Korean Pro Gamers already having there hands on it for "Beta" testing.

So when it comes out, 2 of us should be in a game with 1 of them to see if we can last. :laugh:

Cold Storm · Jan 6, 2009

Man, I've been waiting on this FOREVER! I haven't waited as bad as Star Ocean 3, but it's getting close to it!!!
Man, my system is even crying for a upgrade from Starcraft!

"Starcraft II is on course for a Enjoy the screens." ...WTF?

NeSeNVi · Jan 6, 2009

... and how many patches we will need to get a balanced game?

3870x2 · Jan 6, 2009

when is the current release date of this game? TBA 2019?

El Fiendo · Jan 6, 2009

Nah, its coming out just after Duke Nukem Forever.

pr0n Inspector · Jan 6, 2009

I sure that after a couple years of delay and lots of marketing hype, SC2 will be just like the original SC: out-dated graphic, primitive gameplay, outmatched by games of its time, BUT it will be commercially successful, oh, and it will be worshipped by Koreans and Chinese.

Castiel · Jan 6, 2009

I think it will come out this year.

NeSeNVi · Jan 6, 2009

Disagree. Why? There will be automining and autocasting stuffs ;\ so more primitive than the first one.

Cold Storm · Jan 6, 2009

They've slated it to be End of this year.. I've seen it as TBA 2009, and some places where Nov/Dec. of 2009.. So I hope it's this year! But, Look at how Starcaft: Ghost did...

Rebo&Zooty · Jan 6, 2009

blah, this is still gonna be a 3 part for one game buy, dont think i wana buy the same game 3 times to get the full game.

150bucks for a full game seems a bit steep to me!!!!

Full battle 1 vs 1, Terran vs Protoss

.

z1tu · Jan 6, 2009

primitive gameplay???? name one game better than SC

Cold Storm · Jan 6, 2009

Wow, that Battle Report is something else!! I'm creaming all over that game! Damn, does it look good! D3 and SC2 in the same year I hope!!

z1tu · Jan 6, 2009

sadly I don't think d3 will be coming out this year
