Good catch, here's one I got from a friend probably old new but hell: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/92748-StarCraft-II-Will-Not-Support-LAN Two big things out of it first: SC2 beta will go for approx four to six months, so even if it came out tomorrow we won't be seeing SC2 till Novemberish. Second: SC2 won't be playable on LAN!?! Gay.
the 4-6 months was stated in the browder interview, and yes no LAN they are replacing it with something new. the 4-6 months also means they have to launch it in July if they want to make the 2009 deadline...i assume itll come out november, december latest. So denizens of SC2 fan-dom....start buying those tents for launch night
I think you can see in the IGN interview that these guys are pretty much on the ball. Dang what a total diss to those limited selection conservatives hahaha... couldn't agree more with him. Despite some of the hysterical screeching I've heard from change-frightened people, I'm glad blizz knows when to tell the SC1 community to bugger off. Go Bliz!
great article! definatly got me excited to play the game. hopefully i win a beta key for the april fools contest. when will they post the winners?
