It'll be interesting to see how Bnet2 pans out. I'm really excited since hopefully this will bring around a new generation of bot development. I miss 5 years ago when the large community around vL inspired many (including myself) to learn program. Now, with a new protocol to reverse, and a myriad of new languages replacing VB6 (.NET specifically), it'll be interesting to see what happens.
Now that vL is nearly dead, maybe we can become the Bnet2 guys?

I say we then write a service and stick it on a server to encapsulate all the reverse engineering we did and not share any of the low-level know-how, making those who can't do it themselves utterly dependent on our server(s)!

Sounds like a plan.

Well, I sort of was implying that, because we're still the (previously) vL guys.
I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.

Hell no.
I have a programming folder, and I have nothing of value there

Running with Code has a new home!

Our species really annoys me.

Hell no.
Blizzard would be ALL over you if you did that as a beta tester. Good call. Hahah.

No worries. It has already been provided by others!

There were 250 people in this irc channel all reverse engineering SC2 client last night, before they gayed it up and moved to a private channel. Now there's only about 30 in the private one. But still, some cool progress has been made towards allowing an offline game against bots, as well as an emu server.

Oh ya, I forgot to mention that I've been in and playing as well.  Matchmaking is awesome.

You're all assholes. Answer me someone!

Wait, regarding graphics:

So the gameplay videos are completely false? Those don't look like polygon blocks as was the case with WC3. Is there no actual shading and texture detail?

Also, would any die-hard SC/SC:BW fan be satisfied and enjoy SC2? I have mixed emotions about that, and my brief experiences with the demo don't necessarily help my thought process.

I finally got to play against some actual players last night.  So far,  think the game is pretty awesome.

On another note, starcraft 2 can run a wide range of computer specs.  I've seen people talk about playing it on netbooks at 20fps.

I call bs. Even Blizzard's own website says that shouldn't be possible. And at any rate, my desktop is god-awful..
