Will you be buying Warcraft III when it comes out?
It's been two weeks since the Warcraft III Beta has started. And there have been numerous write-ups about the beta itself, majority of which are raving and giving the game some very good feedback.
For a compiled list of these early reviews, visit this link:
http://www.blizzard.com/war3/faq/betacoverage.shtml
Based on the write-ups, or your experience in playing it (if you got the chance to play the beta), will you be buying this game when it comes out? Or is it too early to tell?

I was gonna say no but I may buy it. Theres no way I will buy it though without playing it first.
The main issue with the game for me is Bnet. Bnet is known as lagnet to me now, and I dont really wanna get the game and then be stuck with lag. I would be playing Multiplayer mostly anyways.
I have vowed to never buy another blizzard game again, but if they redeem themselves, then I would buy again.

Blah. Screw battle.net the single-player campaigns are what I'm itching for. Oh, and everyone and his brother has vowed never to buy a Blizzard game again, but everyone always does, it's sort of like people who claim to hate certain popular movie-stars or musicians, yet cannot seem to stop talking about them.

This will be the third time I've said it on these forums...
Don't say it unless you mean it.
Saying you'll never buy another blizzard product means nothing unless you stick to it.

And that is the exact crap I'm talking about.
If you vow to never buy another blizzard game again, you can't just take it back.

I have been raving about Warcraft III for a really long time now, I work at a third party site, I have the beta of the game, how can I possibly resist not buying the game? Ok so I'll get to the point, of course I'm going to buy it!
Now I can't say the game is perfect but I'm sure the final version will be much better than the beta, which only contains the multiplayer mode. I can't wait til Blizzard releases the final version but I hope they take their time to make a few changes, most of all the ugly unit restriction of ninety.
Anyway, the game is awesome and yeah, as I clearly stated, I am going to buy the game!

Ninety as a unit restriction isn't that bad, actually I'm starting to hope they don't raise it. having more in an Eight-player game would bring about performance issues. Using the undead's necromancers I already get a few hundred units and it drops my framerate on a GF2 Ultra, and the majority of people have video cards around the mx400 level. I don't really see them raising the unit cap to 200 like Starcraft or other Warcraft games, heh, imagine how insane that would be.

Undecided right now. Probably will buy it just so that I can reminisce about Warcraft and Warcraft 2...some of my favorite games.
A little hesitant though after D2. Will wait till I can try it out as a demo.

There is little chance that the 90 cap will change.
I'll guarantee it's there for performance reasons, like spider figured.
