How dare you guys question Blizzard decisions and ideas.  It's god damn Blizzard!

They know their shit and we should be humbled to be able to play their masterpieces!

Okay, seriously though...lets save our judgments on the game till the game is out.

Based on ppl's stupid opinion to Diablo 3 (Clue: Rainbows AND TOO COLOURFUL!), I'd say a lot of ppl have dared to do so.

You lucky son of a b-

Damn you all with your photochopping.

I will take a PhotoPorkChop with curry, kkthxbye 

Hmmm, i log into my account and got the SC2 beta icon too, but I don't have any Blizzard games entered yet, i guess all accounts got the icon too?, just that you need a legit Blizzard game to enter?

I also have the same thing,but only on the Korean site,though.

I have one game,though.

It's now on the US portal as well. Sweet.

Okay....

What does this mean? I GOT TEH BETA????

*looks around excitedly.

Blizzard is keeping mum on the purpose of that small lil' icon. Some guys claimed that they did not have that icon but once refreshed a few times, it will appear. Either it's nothing special or we're going to have Blizzard going Neo style: Beta testers. Lots of beta testers.

We met a Korean developer of Blizzard Entertainment’s (Shortened as Blizzard) anticipated RTS game Starcraft 2 (Shortened as Star 2).

David Kim (Korean name Kim Tae Hyun) appeared in the 3rd battle report and showcased talent of a pro gamer to become a topic among the gaming community. He is one of the 50 core developers of ‘Star 2’.

Although he won’t reveal details about ‘Star 2’, he had a light conversation with the reporter about his pride being a developer for Blizzard.

Q: How did you become to work in a foreign country?

A: I was born in Korea and went to college in Vancouver, Canada, majoring in computer science. I was going to work for programming for the “Company of Heroes” and “Warhammer 4000” series but then became a balance designer for Relic.

What is the difference between Blizzard and Relic?

For both companies excelling in making RTS games, it seems like Blizzard concerns more for the eSports side while Relic concerns more about diverse methods of play. The companies individually, make their games fun and they are both great companies.

Q: What job do you hold in Blizzard?

A: I am a balance designer for ‘Star 2’. In other words, I make it so that units are needed in certain situations and also make it so that the units are used well in all games. The main goal right now is to match the unit’s characteristics to its race characteristics.

Q: What do you think is Blizzard’s strengths?

A: It is that anybody can express their opinion equally. Any concern, regardless of job, is discussed freely. Also, in each division there are extremely skilled people that are chosen as the leader so as the work progresses, it is arranged that there is a lot of agreement. (This was quite hard to translate, so many words I didn’t know, sorry if it’s wrong haha)

Q: What game do you enjoy usually?

A: My first online game is ‘World of Warcraft’. I am raising an undead mage. I am looking forward to the game ‘AION’.

Q: Your ‘Star 2’ skill level?

A: I am ranked 1st in the current ladder. However, when the game comes out, I will probably get owned by the gamers in Korea (laugh).

Now you know why David Kim always pwn others in all 3 Battle Reports.

Strange,i hope they need lots of beta tester then.

Hope that i dont have to use their horrible Blizzard torrent.


He pawns.

that blizzard torrent.  

It never works with my connection too. I think if they use that to launch SC2 beta lots of countries around the world wont be able to play it.

It cant even start even for me.
