Buying Starcraft 2 Digital Copy

[Tech_Wiz]

I want to buy and download digital copy from BLizzard website. Has anyone done that earlier? The download sizes are Huge hence worried a bit.

Why don't you get the started edition for free first, and then upgrade it to full version on your computer. Easy download, less worry.

 

[Tech_Wiz]

Have you done it?

 

[cyborg47]

I haven't upgraded it, but I did try the starter edition and the of heart of swarm multiplayer beta. Blizzard uses a downloader, with pause and resume options.

op, when you do buy that game, could you spawn interested TDFers like me

 

[cyborg47]

lol..

@TechWiz, you can share the price of the game with Nerevarine, 30$ each

Started downloading the Starter Edition. Will Purchase full when this one completes. Btw any way to save the installation files secured on a DVD or something so that in case of format I don't have to download 14 GB of data again

@Cyborg - Money isn't much of an issue so no sharing of costs or anything. I don't know what the spawning in SC2 means so lets see may be later we can make a lucky draw

I was planning to get the game with my friends, not sure how much it will work out, but if it does, I'll let you know.

Together, I meant that we'd share the price of the single game. One person will have the full version, and the other join him through starter editions. I don't think anything like Bulk purchase even exists in this case.

 

[avinandan012]

how much cost?physical retail available?

only the full version able to host the game?

 

[cyborg47]

60$, unless there's some kind of sale. Digital is better, coz you can try it out with the starter edition and upgrade it to full version if you like it Better than retail.

Yes, it was recently announced, the full version can host the game and the starter edition fellows can join in.

 

[avinandan012]

whoa by today's rate $60 =~(Rs.3360+conversion charge) way out of budget

WoL , HoS are not they expansions? Do you have the base game?

Or the base game is not required to play those expansions?

What are the differnce between these three . please someone explain.

WOL is the base game, Heart of Swarm is the expansion.
