Blizzard Entertainment has done a great job keeping the long awaited best RTS release of Starcraft II under wraps and even Blizzard's vice president of game design "Rob Pardo" said in a recent interview that he was surprised how well the project was kept in secrecy right to the end.
Starcraft II being the anticipated best RTS release for 2010 is a huge hit in South Korea where players of the original Starcraft have been subject to huge competitions resulting in sponsorships, television contracts and amazing tournament prizes. Starcraft's most popular players in 2005 reported to have fan clubs with over half a million followers and revenue generated through winnings of more than $200,000 for a single player.
It was announced in April of 2010 that the best RTS will be available in a standard or collectors edition and will be available as a direct download shortly after the game is released. The collectors addition is said to include a 2GB Jim Raynor dog tag styled flash drive containing the original Starcaft, Brood War expansion, soundtrack, artbook, behind the scenes dvd, comic book and redeemable codes for content downloads.
The best RTS will be released in three parts and has a variety of interesting changes that have been subject to controversy by game enthusiasts all over the world. The first release being the main game Starcraft II - Wings of Liberty will be focused on Terrans. The second release will be an expansion set called "Heart of the Swarm" focused on the Zerg and finally "Legacy of the Void" will be focusing on the Protoss. In june last year it was announced that LAN support would not be included in Starcraft II - Wings of Liberty which will force players to connect through Blizzard's Battle.net servers.
Closed beta testing commenced from early February where initial beta keys sold for up to $400 a piece and was expected to last for 3 - 5 months. Beta keys are now available with pre-order packs for PC and Mac versions of the game until beta testing expires however the best RTS standard edition will only be shipped within the U.S, where the collectors edition will be shipped to selected countries outside of the U.S as well.
In order to sign up for Starcraft II beta you will have to register a Battle.net account if you don't already have one & submit a Beta profile through the new beta opt-in process. A beta profile is a snapshot of your current system specifications including how much RAM you have, Hard drive space, type of graphics card and other information so that Blizzard can test games on a wide range of systems. Once you have submitted your profile you may even be selected as an official beta tester and will be notified directly by email to test the best RTS games.
