My copy officially shipped yesterday afternoon, at the latest I'll have it on monday :D

If its CE i hate you SO MUCH RIGHT NOW. I got to pick it up at work and its AMAZING. Just the actual feel of a proper PC Collectors Edition in years made me happy let alone knowing we have all of our pre orders + some extras(not many AT ALL) is making me even more anxious to just leave with one and not play it till release day lol.

I WANT THIS GAME SO BAD. 4 more dayssssssssssss

There's a reason that Starcraft is the best selling game and a reason that it is called Limited Collector's Edition. So in other words, you probably won't find it.

So what you're saying is if you have a collectors edition reserved hold onto it for 3 or 4 months and sell it for $300-400 and buy a regular edition for yourself to play on? That's what I've been thinking about doing. :laugh:

Preordered it way back in May from Amazon. :) Didn't know it's region locked then so now I can only play on American servers instead of Australian/Asian it's gonna be lagtastic for me. :(

you could just register the key to an australian/asian account and download the client , from what i understand the keys can be registered to any region its the account/client that needs to be the same. if they dont match you wont be able to login.

Thanks for organizing all of that information, Anaron :).

I'm getting more and more excited for this game now. I have my pre-order with Future Shop, so hopefully it doesn't take too long to reach my hands (I've already accepted the fact that I probably won't get it on the 27th). I plan on making August the month of Starcraft II, since I have to go back to the University in September. I even plan on making this the first game on my Macbook Pro. I've been good at not installing games on it, since it's my work machine, but this is just too tempting.

Also @tragedy: Im buying 2 collectors. 1 to COLLECT and 1 to open and enjoy. But most likely in 6 months im gonna end up selling it or right when demand is high and quantity is NONE.

Places on amazon already have it listed as $150 and more.

Thanks for the link, happylemon. I'm glad they added those challenge missions. I can't wait to master microing. I don't even know all the hotkeys by heart (yes, shame on me).

WHAT. THEY SHOULD COME NATURAL OH YOUNG ONE.

And you call yourself a gold player, n00b.

Haha jk, it came naturally to me since ive hotkeyed first SC, both AOE and expansions, etc.

Oh, so today we got our total shipment in, blizzard/coporate went so far to only ship as many reserved as possible. NO EXTRAS AT ALL. We were expecting some since 9 people got in on the pre order before it left the system and we got exactly 9 copies. Funny thing, its 6 per boxes, put in landscape and yeah, they bothered to take 3 out and pack the hell out of it with packing bubbles or whatever you want call them and yeah, i was very surprised they did that, as was my boss because usually they just ship the quantities instead of having to break open a box. ALL the stores only got as many reserved.

Funny thing sales are final and 48 hour policy will be held strong. If you dont pick up / call for your collectors in 48 hours, its fair game. Seeing this, im picking up a collector as soon as it becomes available. I got mine on pre order and then another one just to hold it as a collectors item, or sell it later.

But, to comment on the Collectors Edition Box, its AMAZING. A TRUE PC Collectors Edition. Its Nice and Big, Heavy, Strong. Doesnt feel like cheap cardboard. I like it. Cant wait to open it up tuesday morning.

I just wish the collector's edition would include some nice figurine to put in my office.

Also, the lame WoW pet means nothing to me... I don't even play WoW.

+1

Yeah that WoW tie-in is stupid. I don't play WoW.

I remember when I bought War3, I got a free figurine with the game and I didn't even have to buy the collector's edition.

Yeah that's one thing about it.. there isn't something I can put my hands on in real life.. lol.. I guess I made the right choice, saved some money and went for the Standard Edition.

I thought the 176 page art book should be pretty sweet. I'd pay $20 just for that.

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.5

      By Copernic · Posted

      Ocenaudio 3.19.5 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.5 changelog: Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows (DirectSound and ASIO) Fixes several crashes and memory corruption issues Fixes opening several headerless files at once, which previously dropped all but one Improves batch export by suggesting and remembering the destination folder Fixes accented and non-Latin characters in VST plug-in and compressed-archive file names Adds zstd compression support and updates the archive library Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Limited Prime Day deal sees Amazon Echo Show 11 is at its lowest price yet

      By ad47uk · Posted

      I did think about a Echo show once and it would be useful to see what my cameras see. But my brother got one and I changed my mind. Adverts and not really worth the price just to see my cameras. I have a load of dots and a Echo Gen 4, they will do.
    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      By ad47uk · Posted

      I asking where you are from or live, because if you don't live in the U.K, why are you so bothered? That is another reason I voted out, E.U and people poking their noses in where they should not be. Sadly we still have it, Trump, and his cronies. Putin as well and no doubt others. It makes no difference what we believe, if we made the right choice or not, we are out. As I said to someone when the news first broke we have voted out, we just need to make the best of it. I have no problems with closer ties to the E.U, we still need to trade. Just don't want to be in their club.

      By ad47uk · Posted

      So you think I voted out because i am anti-immigrant. I am fed up with those that come over and think that we owe them something. The ones that are at the moment coming over from France where they are already in a safe country because they think and no doubt will get everything chucked at them. While people who were born and bred here get very little. I have nothing against as i have said before those that come here and work. In fact I know full well that our NHS would struggle without them. I do have a problem with those that come over here and try to push their religion and their way of life onto us. My reasons for voting out was because of what the E.U is and is also becoming. I did not agree with Freedom of movement, not because I don't want people over here, but because people need to be checked before being allowed to cross borders and that goes both ways. But my main thing was because the E.U is becoming if not already a united states of Europe. The only reason countries like Poland and Romania joined was because they had no money. When my partner left Poland, she had nothing, Poland had nothing, that is why she left. Wanted to learn something and earn a living. The E.U would have us back according to Michel Barnier. https://www.euronews.com/my-eu...ator-barnier-tells-euronews Why are you so scared to say what country you are in?
