The truth isn't always pretty, but it is always the truth

Come get some

So, made the Starcraft 2 Beta. I will try to review it in a sensible way (i.e. vaguely) so as to not reveal anything too damaging or spoilerish. Besides the single player campaign isn't part of the beta, so this will be nuts and bolts.

edit: Well, snazzy looking - Beta is strictly the Bnet stuff, so no idea if the game is balanced. At present I simply get annihilated by Battlecruiser rushes, which is boring. Annoying that the game still defaults to build-tree contests in multiplayer, but I never much cared for multiplayer.
As far as looks and controls, very snazzy. Controls are familiar and smooth, the look is slick, good voices on the units, nice animations. Units are bigger and easier to see, as well. Will probably have to wait for the real release to review this, though. Getting stomped by 14-YO malnourished Korean SC savants is not really my thing

Say whatever is on your mind. But if it's stupid, expect to be called on it.
