    It appears Blizzard is holding true to its age-old motto: "When it's ready." In a move that was foreseen by many industry analysts, Robert Koetick, Activision's CEO announced great profits for Quarter 2--and the fact that StarCraft 2 definitely won't be released in 2009.

    But despair not! BlizzCon is just around the corner and now that the SC2F staff is back in action after a couple weeks off, we'll be there to bring it to you.

    BWAHAHAHAHAHA
    BAWAHAHAHA

    HAHAHAHA

    HAHAHAHAAHAHA

    yes, i am laughing in your face. You are honestly dissapointed cant keep the date that you fanboys thought they should hold on to, without blizzard stating any intended release date.
    This is the first time they dated the release.

    damn. sad, but for me personally, no big loss. i'm going on a long backpacking trip for a few months until christmas, so i would have missed the launch anyways.

    Team Fortress 2 will keep me busy in the meantime.

    They do say that it is very likely going to be an early 2010 release. But with an official window (which could also be delayed, officially), who knows! I think we should expect a beta announcement at Blizzcon, at the very least. Though it is very annoying that they are delaying it because of Battle.net 2.0. If anything they could have given us the full game and then updated to B.Net 2.0 after retail, its not like its going to diminish our experience. LAME!!!

    "Activision CEO Bobby Kotick said during an investor call today that the new iteration of Battle.net will likely be ready early next year."

    I wonder if by ready they mean ready for beta or ready for game release :p Because if it's "ready for beta" we're looking at a late Q2 release.


    Word.

    I really don't want to believe that they think that we r so stupid..
    all of this is happening because they r still proffiting from korean pro-f*cking-leauge ..

    Blizzard the most profitable games company in the world is trying to tell us that they have chilled out in their chairs and need more f*cking time to make battle net stable and producive to give us an epic(my ash) expirience
    In Dubai are building the most high tech Skyscrapers in less than six months and those mother&%$&* in blizzard need more time..

    I am really pissed of now

    Kinda hard to imagine that it'll took 3 years before this game finally gets released. I just reminisced the goosebumps I had when this was announced more or less 2years ago.

    I am not surprised, but I am not surprised that others are surprised. People are regularly shocked by the sun in the morning.

    Theres a reason for that. They didnt announce the complicated ......b-net thing until after. They didnt know how long it would take. Heres are answer.
