(Old)Sad News for the People in the Starcraft 2 Beta!
I had recently gotten into the Starcraft 2 Beta along with the Second Wave of invites and I couldn't have been more excited.
Then I read the Blizzcast #13 and found out they have a high probability of not including the Galaxy Editor in the beta at all.
This will mean bad news for us modders/map makers, but good news on the game release coming within the first half.
Here's a direct quote from Chris Sigaty from the Blizzcast #13 interview:
"You haven't asked this question yet, but I'll answer it ahead of time. We were targeting three to five months for the beta, we're really at a three month period of time for the beta at this point. We are still targeting the first half of this year, so with that in mind, it really shortens the window of time with our major content patch coming out pretty close to the end whether it's even worth it putting out the map editor at that point."
Hopefully you guys aren't as disappointed as I am. Talk to you all soon!
