It’s 2010. Blizzard hasn’t released Starcraft 2 yet. I’m ready to throw in the towel and move-on.

the only likely reason i know that starcraft 2 was delayed many times was due to other projects such as w.o.w diablo 3 etc

Nice call Lisa! Beta still has no release date and the game is delayed until 2010…

I know Blizzard did say the game will be launched at the end of this calender year, but the delay of the beta could push the release date by a few months.

The beta is key in the release date, as major issues with netcode/balancing etc may push the release date back drastically if the problem is large enough.

@Lisa: “Blizzard’s love of media attention” is nonsense. Activision love pandering to the media, but Blizzard enjoys keeping to themselves.

Hi PJ,

It’s all speculation for now – though Blizzard intend on releasing the game before the end of 2009 – it’s likely that it won’t happen. If it does then great! But IGN is simply reporting the intentions, no release date has yet been set in stone. We are just looking at the facts and making assumptions – it’s all anyone can do until the REAL release date is announced:)

Funny how you called it a no brainer, considering it’s not true.

Blizzard announced yesterday on IGN that the game WILL NOT be delayed.

According to the announcement on IGN, Blizzard stated they will not change Starcraft 2 release date.

“We’re still targeting the end of the year for the launch of StarCraft II and we’re also still targeting this summer for the start of the beta, so none of that’s changed on this end.”
