  1. it’s funny when the minimum requirements for a P4 motherboard needs a PCIe video card… diba wala pang PCIe slots sa P4 boards dati? hehe

    buhay nanaman ang Starcraft! yes!

  2. Pretty sane requirements except for the 12GB HDD requirement. Hard disk storage is cheap but those are pretty steep multimedia file requirements for a single game.

    ciao!

  3. Nothing to worry about… whew…

  4. SC2 is also coming for the Mac

  5. ill wait the version for my MAC.

  6. readying ready na m11x ko… hheheheeheh

  7. too bad kailangan mo nang matinding upgrade specs para gawing Gaming PC uli yan, pero baka mabagot ka sa kakalaro, pero sana i-time management ang paglalaro mo, sana i-beta testing din yan sa netbooks

  8. Woot! My PC is well equipped for SC2. Can’t wait to get the box set. This game would be well worth the money spent.

  9. sana same specs requirement for diablo II!!

    anyway anyone knows if this would run on nvidia 8200m? sorry for the lame question.. hehe

  10. Don’t worry about the steep HDD space requirement, its a compensation for the low gpu requirement. Newer games with low system requirements usually needs large hdd space which is good imo for moderate gamers. And these are great games too.

  11. I believe what will come out will be a WinMac version, thus there will be only one package for both Win & Mac, just like the previous Starcraft and Warcraft I & II.

  12. Finally! hahaha! sana worth the wait..

  13. I boycott Starcraft II. Walang LAN multiplayer option! Kailangan mo mag-connect sa Battle.NET ng Blizzard para makapag-multiplayer.

    Bulok pa naman mga ISP dito sa atin sa ‘Pinas.

  14. Tingnan n’yo o .. isa sa mga requirements .. kailangan ng broadband internet. Para sa multiplayer option yan.

  15. I think this requirement is dwarfed by the NBA2K10 system requirements.

    Meron na kayang PCI Express sa P4 Motherboard dati. PCIe since 2004 pa yan…

  17. I only have 256MB video card and 2.4Ghz CPU on vista. SC2 beta runs good, i just need a reliable cooling fan or it will shutdown after 5 mins of playing.

  18. @yuga

    I believe Data Blitz will be start giving copies to those who pre-ordered on July 27 as displayed on their posters. July 28 is for people who weren’t able to pre-order their copy. :)

    @Marg

    They removed LAN because to curb piracy. I’ve been playing the Starcraft 2 Beta where the server is located in the US. I have experienced minimal to no lag using a decent broadband connection (pldt 999). Some people are able to play the game even with a 384kbps connection.

  19. *I believe Data Blitz will start giving…*

    * The removed LAN to curb piracy…*

    grammar fail :P

  20. *They*

    spelling fail… this is not a good day… haha

  21. @Marg
    “I boycott blah blah blah”
    That’s alright.. one less whiner to deal with in B.net

  22. @ marg – maglaro ka na Lang ng travian, ragnarok O Kung ano pang jolog games sa lobo ng Mainit na Internet cafe. Halatang di mo maafford nag sc2.

  23. di na papatok ang star craft 2 sa mga kabataan ngaun… old skul pa rin ang dating… dami online games… at mas maganda pa rin dota… ^^

  24. @desert_punk: I totally disagree. Research first before you make such claims.

  25. 12gb is insane, especially since this is just the Terran campaign. I’m guessing it’s 6-10gb for the campaign-specific files (since the ahem…beta was around 2gb) so we’re looking at around 30gb when the Zerg and Protoss campaigns roll around. Crazy.

  26. ma try nga.

  27. Played the beta already, sm0oth naman ung gameplay sa 2.5ghz c2d kahit 9400gt 512mb hehe

  28. mabuhay starcraft n_n

  29. Yehey. I am confident that SC2 will work well on my HD4670 iMac. :))

  30. nagtataka ako bakit nila inalis yung Zerg -Lurker Unit sa original starcraft – ang ganda pa naman ng sound fx nun pag umaatake

  31. Will the Starcraft II be available in MAC OS version? What will be the minimum specs?

  32. the long wait is over.

  33. @Dennis Aquino

  34. Anyone already playing SC2 Beta here? Add me up – pedro.335

    kelangan ko ng training partner..

    kelangan ko ng training partner.. :)

  36. Will be running this on my 3 year old laptop – I’m good with the specs, except the 12GB HD req., hahaha.

  37. nice.. pwede pa palang yung 5 year old pC ko.. hehe… this game is well worth it.. considering… almost a decade ago pa na release yung original starcraft. :)

  38. Well, I just loved the previous game version because it is a complete balanced Real Time Strategy game, wherein you can still win in spite of lower unit number, just a brilliant strategy is all you need… Unlike some new RTS games wherein number of units really predicts the battle results, and some had tricks/Easter eggs.

    I hope that the new release will retain this game’s unyielding reputation in RTS world.

    LOLIPOWN: I didn’t whine. It’s a declaration. From an avid Starcraft fan who bought 10 (base + brood war).

    ULV: As I’ve said, I’m an avid SC fan. Even way back when Battle.net was referred to as B.net .. Sorry to disappoint you, but my utter disappointment that led to my declaration doesn’t mean that I’m too poor (jologs?) to afford buying.

  40. hmmm yes, I agree with desert_punk, syempre iba parin yung fever ng Starcraft dati. Malamang bawas na yun ngayon.

    Pero, naman! TO COMPARE IT WITH DOTA? Mga adik lang naman sa DoTA nagagandahan dun. Ngayon, kung ayaw niyo po ng old school, wag niyong purihin ang DoTA. :) Ka-edad na ng PS2 yan eh.

  41. you can play SC2 in offline mode (fullversion) ang daming crack google lang kau..hehe

  42. gusto ko ng maglaro ulit ng SC2 hahaha.. meron bang cd nito?? magkano kaya..?

  43. grabe for how many years.. at last lumabas din ang sc2
    game of the year ito ng 2010 1.5 milyon copies kaagad ang sold sa isang araw lang

  44. ahmmm, tanung ko lang.. kasi ang bagal nya sa pc ko pag naka-max settings, kaya ginawa ko na lang low lahat

    ito specs ng pc ko

    2.8 Ghz core 2 duo
    3 gb Ram
    1 gb GeForce 9400gt
    320gb HD

    ang bagal tlga nya, nagtataka lang ako, may ginawa ba akong mali??? :(

  45. @rufus:

    bro, graphics card lang i-upgrade mo sa system mo. go get nvidia fermi cards, ung gtx 460 or 450, or amd 6800 series cards, then your good to go. ultra settings lahat tapos hi-res pa. :-)
