I wish I could do this hahah, I used to be half-decent in Diamond and whenever I play now I feel really self-conscious about all the minerals I'm floating, my terrible micro and so on so it's not really enjoyable.

After I beat the campaign, I'm going to do the complete run with Mass Recall (StarCraft: Brood War remake in SC2).
Principate
Saint Titanfall

Link? Not so surprising considering what's in the launch trailer
EDIT: nevermind I found it. Only in Korean though
Skipping the CE this time. Maybe I still pick it up later for completion sake, but atm not enough interest in the game for me. Fallout 4 is gonna get priority.
Still hope the expansion can breath some life in the game, but with reverting the macro changes I will continue to not touch the multiplayer.

I'm kinda bummed that there is no CE strategy guide for this one like there was for WoL and HotS
Really, man that stinks I was trying to complete the set. 3 CE games and the 3 CE strategy guides.
Picking up my CE after work, can't wait to start the campaign.

Man why even come into an OT JUST to post a massive spoiler lol

May the Schwartz be with you
Get panda to play the game again and y'all can do your 2am scrims lol
i actually asked him, he should get unbanned soon on gaf
i'm quite busy lately but we will see
i'm also scared i ll get used to EU ping and not like NA ping...
still better than you?
nowadays, i'm only in for the story campaign.
I sure hope, this time around, we'll have less "gimmicky" missions, compared to Heart of the Swarm, where - imho - far too many missions had some sort of "timer" mechanic to it.
I like to slowly build up my economy and go about a mission at my own pace.
edit: Sadly, all 3 prologue missions had some weird "pushy" mechanic - the first one was a "race" against the Zerg, the 2nd didn't have any vespine geysers ...

wishes it were bannable to say mean things about Marvel
If there was an actual Wood League beneath Bronze I'd probably be in it, I mean that's just how great I am at Starcraft 2. Even in Bronze I lose to scrubs doing rushes and mineral line drops and just strange strategies. There just doesn't seem to be a true "low level" league in this game anymore, lol.
I honestly have more fun playing co-op against AI opponents with humans on my team. At least there I can actually win games (I still lose games too....).

Massive starcraft fan, been to both mlg and nasl to spectate. After being kind of burnt by hots its taking me some effort to muster up some hype for this.
I think they over hauled the economy and maybe some other stuff right? Guess ill see how launch goes but i might pass on buying this one.

That was my plan too... if only LotV came before HotS, for the zerg scum I could've waited easily.... but how could I miss the homecoming.

The HOTS campaign was so damn good. I loved all the RPG elements and I hope some of that returns for this entry.
True. I didn't expect to like it at first (especially since, you know, zergs) but I enjoyed it more than the first one.
Also, Abathur.

Are these on youtube? I can't find them.

Woo!! I am a Protoss player. So this campaign has been a nice long wait. I enjoyed WOL and HOTS was good but Zerg just doesnt click with me. So excited. I am probably going to be the only one playing this tomorrow instead of Fallout 4 which i will wait a few patches before getting.

Super hyped and excited for this! It feels we've been waiting forever. I felt Wings and Swarm both had amazing, profoundly enjoyable and addictive campaigns that are the best RTS campaigns on the planet. I thought Swarm was on par with Wings in terms of pure gameplay and the design of the campaign missions so I'm fully expecting Void to continue that outstanding level of quality. Story wise I think I'm a bit more excited than last time just because this is supposed to be the "epic conclusion" and weak writing or not you just know the final three or so missions are going to be edge of your seat epic. Anyone know what time Blizzard flips the switch in the UK?
The OP says 11pm GMT? So I can play this in like ninety minutes?

Larva injection is automatic now I think. Same with mules.
Oh, that's good then.
But MULEs automatic? What. Those weren't as big deal as Larva Injection, i think. Not going to complain though.

Game launches in under a day, when is the review embargo lifting?
Where the heck did those come with strategy guides?
WoL CE had an artbook.
At least my copy had.

sorry, I didn't specify. I didn't mean in the collector's edition, I meant available to purchase separately.
I'm talking about these:

edit - but there doesn't seem to be one for LotV
I'm in the same position as you - I have the CE strategy guides for WoL and HotS, but it does not appear that BradyGames is publishing one for LotV for us to complete our collection

The books are so damn pretty. I'm gonna be super bummed if there won't be a 3rd and final one...
Ah, CE versions of strategy guides.
Yeah, at a glance, seems there's no guide. Guess Blizzard didn't care or bother having one made. (Or are they unauthorized?)
They are the official strategy guides from BradyGames.

Never mind - just found my answer to Legacy's launch in the EU/UK here. The OP is correct. It's 11pm GMT so just under an hour from now. I can play this in an hour!
yeah, the meta part of the campaign was fantastic.
Still, i would have loved some more laid-back classic RTS missions.
It's hard recalling a single mission in HotS that didn't have some kind of mechanic that pushed (forced) you into progressing.
Be it Zagara collecting baneling eggs, the Gorgon Battlecruisers, the Protoss transport ships, the Psi Destroyer, the Hybrids being woken up, Narud challenging his beam,
Which is why my favourite mission in HotS might just be the one where you start off with those 4 infestors - there's no forced "complete this mission before ..." deadline. That and the very last mission.
Fuck. I didn't even mean to click this. Goddamnit.
