Nice, Im going to be attending Day9’s event today in person. Sucks I think hes not broadcasting the finals until midnight, which means I’d want to be playing instead!
Also, gamestop shipped my 25% off collectors edition today, so I’ll have it tomorrow! I was worried it’d come a day later
Gonna pick up my copy of sc2 tonight, I’m still skeptical as hell though. No LAN, chat, cross realm play, etc. just makes BNET look like shit. I’ll give it a chance though.
Here’s a question. Do you guys know if you can give your WoW thor pet to someone else? I don’t have a WOW account so I want to give it to my friend who does but it seems like the thor pet is linked to your bnet account.
Almost midnight and about to head on over to Gamestop. What sucks is I bought Mass Effect couple days ago. Gonna be hard to balance with work and summer school FUCK !
EDIT: Just came back. Some people are so goofy. This guy came out the store with the game and yells out “My life is complete now!”
LMAO be forewarned, when you create a character name, that will be your official multiplayer profile name as well! My friend did not realize this, thought he was only making his bullshit offline campaign name and is now stuck with being known as “abbb”.
Apparently this is causing quite a stir in the SC2 forums atm. Also, there are multiple people with the same name, they just have number identifiers on profiles. You don’t see the number unless you look at the profile. So the guy who got all hyped that he was allowed to call himself “Zerg” was shocked when he saw that he was actually “Zerg#431”. Some dude on the forums was really crushed when he realized he was “Sephiroth#733”.
As of yet, Blizz officially has no plans on letting people change their names, which sucks for the guy who went to the bathroom during his install and his friends jokingly gave him the profile name “Failburger” thinking he could just make a new one. Nope. He’s Failburger now.
Blizz will probably implement a name change feature eventually though. Whaddya think, 5 bucks? 10?
This made me laugh. I could see Blizzard implementing a name change system and charging for it. I’m not getting SC2 because of their ties to Activision. Stuff like the above doesn’t help, either. Do you even get a warning?
Going to grab my copy this Friday after work. I bought a (relatively) juiced up computer specifically for this game. . .I hope it was worth it.
AMD 3.4 ghz Phenom II x4 965 BE
Radeon HD 5830
8 GB RAM
Honestly, the countless pages of tactics and hours of video I have to peruse just to learn how to play the game properly seems like a terribly daunting task. Hopefully some of the stuff I learned in SC1 carries over. . .?
can i sell my collectors preorder stub? can those things even be transferred? I preordered it and am currently unemployed soooo. i think they give like 3 days to pick it up or something of the sort. Any of you GS employees know if its possible?
At beast you’d could givem the stub and the Phone # you reserved it under along with all your shipping info and they should be fine. (they might want ID since the CE is kinda of a big deal if not you’ll be good)
Picking mine up after work today, was “MEGAHYPER” in beta and hopefully i can get that name again as 1st.
i only really play 1v1 and i’m not terribly good or anything, so if anybody wants friendly games i’ll be on plenty.
