    @ Meee,

    Blizzard hasn't announced that they won't be releasing Zerg until June, that was just my opinion. But truthfully I just don't see a reason for announcing this convention now if that weren't the case.

    Why else would they announce this convention in February knowing that we want to see Zerg and the beta? And they certainly won't be releasing the beta test any time before this or else people wouldn't want to travel. :D

    This is actually close enough for me to go, but I doubt I will manage :(

    I think the Zerg will be revealed earlier. Its like giving childrens cookies, if they get one each day they will stay happy, but if you give them 3 cookies every 3 days, they will be asking for cookies day 1 and 2...

    I know, honestly I don't think it will take them that long. But seeing this, it might do.
    Meh I'm fine either way, especially with the beta, I'd like to see Zerg a bit sooner though

    Great find, very prompt. But man, I hope we don't have to wait until June, to find out when we can play the beta. I was expecting the beta to be released within three months, or at least to have info about a very soon and upcoming release date. The wait is torture. 8)

    I rememer from on of the Dev posts that they hav ebeen working very hard on Zerg, and been focusing mainly on them...i bet their almost ready. I mean their was a three month expanse between Protoss and Terran, and the game had already been ind evelopement for four years or what have you. THe zerg are coming!!

    EDIT: By the way, furrer appears to have exited himself.

    I would love to go to this and play the demo version, but it's too far away...


    *idea forms inside EonMaster's head*

    Would anyone be willing to give me money for a two way flight from the US to France along with hotel costs? plz?

    Omg... If I would want to go it would only cost me about 80 euros for a return train ticket from Holland and a few hours of comfortable train travelling. That seems like a pretty good deal to me! Hey, just a thought: if some of the other members of this site go to the event to, maybe we can hang out together there... :D @waiting time for zerg: as long as they are playable at the event, then I am fine with that.

    It's too much for me, I don't feel like paying that kind of money for a chance to see/play game I will be able to buy for less and play all I want.
    Besides I can only communicate in two languages, neither of which seems like a good idea for a trip to France

    I wouldn't mind if the Zerg were unveiled in June. I'm just happy having a possible date instead of pacing back and forth wondering when the Zerg will be revealed. :p

    Since they do have a tendency to release major info during a big conference just about every time i do expect the zerg to be shown at this event, however there is the possibility that the info may be released beforehand as with the Terran units before blizzcon.
