BlizzCon news: Starcraft 2 single player will be split into 3 standalone games. The first will only include the Human campaign.

Sounds like a stupid idea so far.

It prints money......

SC / BW has been one of my fav. games since what...2001 or something?
Me and archz was pretty hardcore, with some irl mates that lives nearby..
Me and a friend played with the Norwegian "C" National team (lol, C..:p)
alot, so YAH! was fairly good 3 years ago :p


Gonna get SC2 the day it gets here, and im gonna try
to get real good, and kick all ur asses:D

Ill be sure to get Starcraft 2.

No denial in that, but the idea of it being split into 3 games is really stupid for consumers. Just thinking each box might cost around 50 $ is a bit scary, all 3 of them a total of 150 u.s dollars ? ...

...   

I really like the idea of buildings going underground if your units get stuck somewhere or you want to use them as a wall.

The game is amazingly fun. Zerg are awesome

Blizzard had the game up during DH. THink i sat there for a few hours playing multiplayer.

So far <3 Zerglings!

I did read about the whole split into three thing, and at first was wary. However, Blizzard has said that each one will definitely be a full-size game, and to their credit if they deliver the quantity of content, I can't see a reason to complain (I think it's a granted the quality of the content will be pretty high).

Plus, we get the added bonus of a whole game's worth of ZEEERRRRG. For the Swarm!

The 3split-part is still kinda shit as a lot of the fun/diversity during the original single-player SC campaign came from playing 3 races that each played diffently. Introducing new elements (new units/upgrades etc) in each level is an important singeplayer gameplay mechanic. Let's see how they pull that off in SC2 with just 1 race (or two, is the mini protoss campaign still in?).

Also, will there be some kind of tutorial for the other races? I imagine some non-SC-player playing the zergs for the first time in multiplayer. Will we discover all the new stuff just by trial n error?

Pretty good point about the multiplayer, I hadn't considered that at all. Perhaps they expect the pros to just know, and don't care about the casuals.

This will be sort of adding on to what Goza said. Im pretty sure that each game will have alot of content, I have faith in Blizzard for that. It has been aşready said each episodes length will be the same as the entire original Starcraft.

I forgot how many missions each campaign consisted of in the first game. But for example lets say 30 missions for each race. This time you will be playing up to 90 missions per race. Think of how much content there would have to be to satisfy the consumer.

Usually in singleplayer after every few missions or so you would get introduced to a few new units. Think the that introduction wait doubleing ? Or triple in this case.

But Ive always had faith in Blizzard before, Im sure they will come up with some evil scheme and make us happy. Especially Koreans in the pants. : p
