Does anyone have any idea on the following: Will SC2 require a CD to play, since WC3 & SC don't anymore. (Please say no) Will SC2 work under linux, under Wine, Cedega? Will you be able to join BNet from linux? Is there any chance SC2 will have an OpenGL option? (Will pay double for this ) Will SC2 simply use BNet key as the only copy protection method, like WC3 & WoW. (Copyprot never works anyway) Will blizzard have anti-cheating systems that inspect your computer like WoW? Any chance that if they do they will be able to be emulated in Wine?
since SC2 is one of the new generations out there from the start will it be on CD or DVD? *cd to play with? of course and maybe later for the no-cd reqs, but who doesnt want to own their own set of SC2 when it comes out? I doubt theres an SC fan whove waited 10 yrs for these to go piracy or so. *If its with battlenet -most probably as blizzard mentioned that they want it to be playable by masses *YES imo *thats probably only applicable with MMO as the cheating thing is very depth at those genres thus needing a tight security. and besides i dont understand the point of cheating in PvP as that just degrades your dignity as a player and an SC'er. IDK bout wine emulation.
Sc2 will most likely require a dvd to in the drive to run at first. Blizzard as stated several times that Sc2 will support windows and mac, which suggests that the only way a linux machine is going to run it is through wine. Sc2 will almost guranteed use a cd key stored in a mpq file on your computer and check it when you log onto battle.net to make sure no one else is using it. I would say there is a very good chance that blizzard will have anti-cheating software that scans your comp to prevent cheating, because Blizzard has a reputation of cracking down on cheaters and using more adavnced methods with every generation of their games.
