Starcraft II Beta

Anyone playing the beta? I'm getting it installed in Wine right now.

Have you seen "CRAZY Ex-Girlfriend Deletes Ex BF Brad's Starcraft 2 Beta Key Email " on youtube? I won't link it because of bad language, but its pretty funny.

i kind of wish I were playing the beta but its alright, I have Battlefield and COD to hold me over until then.

I just looked that video up... Wow.... that is terrible.




I've been patching ALL DAY. I started around noon, got up to Beta 10 in less than an hour, and now five hours later the Beta 11 patch JUST hit the halfway point. And I have to go up to 13.

We should play each other!

The game might run at a slow speed, but I've played a couple people successfully!

Preorder the game from Gamestop and they give you a beta key.

Definitely, man! Add me! I played an online round the other day after I spent some time messing around with the Terran tech tree and I actually won. The performance was good, too. Not really much lag or anything to speak of. Other than Starcraft II being AWESOME, that is.

So, I'm getting a lovely error now that isn't letting me start the game. I had to use a patched version of Wine for SCII, and I think Wine has *gasp* updated since then. I'm not sure if its now broken. Looks like gaming computer is on my list of things to save for in the very near future...

I didn't pre-order. I submitted my computer's specs to be eligible for the beta probably a year to year and a half ago. Clearly, I was a high priority candidate for SCII now that they're closing it down this coming Monday.

They're really closing the beta down? Lame.

Yeah, super bummer that it's already over. Apparently they're going to re-open it a couple of weeks before launch, but still. Not nearly enough time.
