If you haven’t already, check out the starcraft 2 battle report. The commentary is a bit over the top though… like “OMG will that probe shield hold up… YES it will… NOOOOOO that probe is gone” and that just for the scout probe!!! Try to download the video instead of doing the web video player so you get better quality (the web video is still 322 MBs!).
Anyway, minus the exaggerated commentry the video actually makes the game seem like it’ll be fun! You have watch towers you can take over to get better site (sorta like CoH), breakable obstacles for the map, and high yield resource locations (which give you extra bonus on mining I think). I think it should make the game more interesting, although I’m holding out until I actually play the game before I say if its going to be good or it will suck. At the very least the game looks promising. I just remember what a horrible job they did with war3, but for some reason 90% of the people liked it anyways
