Blizzard opens StarCraft 2 community site

Posted Jan 27, 2008 at 12:01PM by QJ Staff Listed in: News, Titles, Genre Tags: Blizzard, orcs, podcast

Good news to all of you waiting for word on Blizzard's upcoming RTS StarCraft 2: the official community site is now open and it has some really cool features.

Aside from the usual boards, galleries, and news sections, a new feature called BlizzCast is also being bannered. Simply put, this is a podcast where you can listen in on some of your favorite Blizzard devs.

First off the plate will be longtime Blizzard art director Samwise Didier. As some of you may recall, he's the creative mind behind such figures as Dark Templars, Zerglings, Pandaren, and Fel Orcs.

Didier will be talking about his experience while working on StarCraft and Warcraft characters. If we're lucky, we might even get a heads-up on upcoming World of Warcraft and StarCraft 2 concepts and updates.

All the main developers from Blizzard will follow shortly after. The addition of BlizzCasts should provide some welcome in-betweeners when we're in waiting phases for announcements, patches, and releases.

It's great that the StarCraft 2 community site is now live. This gives us all a rally point where all the official word trickles down for us to savor.
