SC2 WIll Be Released As 3 Seperate Games.

Posted by diefortheswarm on Jun 13, 2009 10:55 pm GMT - 7
Blizzard has made the announcement that SC2 will in fact be released as 3 separate games. The reason they are giving for doing this is that they want to make the single player truly epic. They are talking about having at least 30 missions for each race. Each release will include the campaign for one of the 3 races. And if you are thinking of buying the game once and pirating the campaigns, each release will also include new multiplayer units. This means you really will have to buy the game 3 times. gg no re
ps. I know this is old news but some people may not be following SC2 developments and may not know about it.

You now have the ability to create accounts through the http://us.battle.net/?rhtml=y website. You can then attach CD Keys from blizzard games to your account. You can even attach a WOW account to your http://us.battle.net/?rhtml=y account. Once a game CD Key is attached, you can download the game for free from blizzard. You can even download BW with just a vanilla SC CD Key, since BW does not have it's own CD Key. This is all real nice but you can also use the account to register for beta tests of future games, INCLUDING SC2!!!!!! From what I can tell from the bnet forums, blizzard plans start the beta in only a few months.

Natural Selection 2 Teaser Released
|
|
|
Posted by Reinth on Jun 02, 2009 12:31 am GMT - 7
After four years of production they've finally got a general release date set and a teaser trailer released. You can now pre-order Natural Selection 2 with a normal and special edition, which would be the equivalent of being the constellation member as it gives you your own distinguished icon in game on the scoreboard as well as a specific player model for the special edition.
Regular release is $20 and special edition is $40, personally im going to get the special edition just because I want to see this game succeed since I loved the living hell out of NS1.
Natural Selection2 has recieved amazing reviews from notable sources like Penny Arcade and PC Gamer hailing it as an immersive, innovative game that gives you exactly what you're looking for.
For those that haven't played Natural Selection before it's an FPS/RTS where Marines and an alienlike species known as the Kharaa (Zerg) are in an intergalactic battle of supremacy. Both sides build beneficial and offensive buildings to protect or advance their owned space in any given area. The Kharaa aren't lead by any single entity but instead function through a hive mind (named iconically, the hive), where the marines take orders through a player who sits in the command console, this player plays from a third person view and gets to play a real time strategy game.
Some cool new features in NS2 are things like dynamic map changes, a Power Grid is required to be maintained to keep buildings up and running so you must control all of the hallways on the way to your building in order to keep it functioning. The aliens now have an automatically expanding infestation (creep) that will actively eat and destroy welded doors, electrical conduits and buildings within it. NS2 is using an in house engine developed by Charlie Cleveland (Flayra) the developer and coder of the original Natural Selection, notable features are the dynamic lighting system where in any given situation the lights will bend and react in real time rendering.
I think the coolest thing about the trailer they've released features only in game footage (with a little editing to make it look cinematic) as well as the infestation that flows across the screen also being from the game itself.
For more information you can find their site at NaturalSelection2.com
Trailer can be found at their site or they've uploaded it to youtube here.

You are all free the read and comment on the article. The reason I wrote this, and hopefully future, articles is to describe the new features in SC2 to people that do not have the time to sift through the Blizzard forums. Please try to keep comments constructive.
New Gameplay Dynamics In SC2 Part 1
Ps. I decided to post the first article in the news forum as a general non news post. If dopefish would like it in the articles section I can prepare a HTML formatted version.
