Q: By how far have SC II been developed? What parts are finalized?

For now, nothing is finalized. As we were developing SC II as well as other games, it took long time. Perfection cannot be negotiated so it's still uncertain how long it'd take.

Q: There's been rumor of much change (so much that people calls it Battle Net2). Please explain.

We can't tell you currently, but we're planning it for great fun. We guarantee Interesting changes.

Q: There was no Kerrigan in the Zerg movie! Is Kerrigan [a/the] Queen? How will Kerrigan appear? Roach looks like 바퀴벌레(korean name for roach). In game called, there was unit nick named 바퀴벌레. Was Zerg unit Roach named because of it?

There's no conection between 2 Roaches. Kerrigan isn't Queen, she's independent unit. She'll appear only in story line

Q: How many Starcraft developers are in SC II? We know there are C&C developers so there have been opinions that SC II is not as great as it should be.

There are at least 12 participants. We have done our best for improving game and to satisfy users in Multiplayers; therefore it should be acknowledged as great work.

Q: How do you balance the game? What is the degree of freedom on web programs you guys are using?

Balancing is diffilcult job, so devs constantly play for balance. But we have excellent intellectuals and are palnning to get feedback from community including this opportunity to talk to media. We're planning for constant patches/balancing. Map maker of Warcraft 2 have joined Starcraft 2. RIght now, it's hard to tell, but it'd be up for use.

Q: What characteristics does new graphic engine embody?

It's not expert of graphics, but cna use various latest graphic tech!

Q: The Zerg Scenario ends with Invasion/ conqust of Protoss and occupying Terran to accomplish that goal. Will there be new Scenario? Would it stick to old storyline(I'm not certain about this translating part)? Queen looks like hero. Does she need Tech tree to produce?

Storyline is still being planned, and not to be discussed in public. Queen is usable from beginning and useful for defence. Additional information will be released.

Q: In WWI, Mothership was epic unit, but now it can be produced in many numbers. Queen is an epic unit, so would mother ship also become another epic unit? SC II have excellent graphics and high potential. What would requirements be?

Game content is still at a developing stage, so it's hard to answer. Queen is more of very able unit than epic unit...Zerg will be weak without defense whether how units use it or not. It's not hero. We want as many people to play SC II, and therefore most PCs would be able to play SC II. It'd need Graphic card + Pixelator 2.0

Q: In what way will SC II be tested? Pros say SC II is similar to SC I. Would SC II focus on that part or will there be something new?

The testing mode for SC II is in discussion. Starcraft have been very popular game so we'd like to continue the SC I characteristics. But still, freshness to game will be added.

Q: Zerg's Infestation + Infested Marine was not widely used in SC I. How will this change in SC II? Do Infested units count as unit supply?

Infestation is an undergoing process, and today we've shown only the developing area. Devs are making sure infestation will be useful SC II...even supply depot can be infested! For now there's only Infested marine, but it could change.

Q: SC I had low Artificial Intelligence. How would single play and finding roads be in SC II? Protoss has unit that can cross terrain while Zerg do not..is there any unit being developed targeting this area? Use Map Settings is popular even now, but people have been changing maps without permission. IS there any way to stop this?

Some devs are working on this part, but it's still in developing stage; not final product. Zerg has nydus warm for now. We acknowelge unauthorized map change violation and are currently in discussion about it.

Q: You've mentioned that it'd take time for development But Activision Blizzard's Bruce of CEO says it'll not be long. Approximately when would it end? If SC II is released, how would you plan on sale of SC II and marketing?

We cannot give date on end of SC II development. It must be perfect. Of course we can have different notion than with Bruce but releasing SC II as quickly as possible will not happen. In addition, we won't trash SC I just. because there's SC II. As long as there's single person playing SC I, it'd still go on.

Q: Today, all three races have been released. Each have strengths. What are developers' opinions on the weaknesses of each?

We don't stay in advantage each race holds. Therefore we do not take adventures to add too many abilities. Each race has its own weaknesses/strengths, and this is for each individual to judge (not us).

Q: Korea has large interest in SC. Would there be any plans to add Korean characteristics?

It is being considered. Koreans love war/strategy games so we're on out effort to make Esports' special qualities..By releasing Zerg in Seoul, you can tell how much we value Korean markets.

Q: Would there be any chance for ordinary individuals to play SC II in Korea? Although SC was Esports, there was no observer mode in SC I . Would there be special functions in SC II? Would there be leagues on Battle.net Homepage?

Introducing/showing game via WWI or BlizzCon is very important. Hence, SC II will have that kind of events. ALso, Esports are making effort in various ways and showing potential. NEverthless it'd depend on how players respond. For reference, Warcraft3 is preparing tournament and SC II is being considered. However, leagues or tournaments are not reliable topics to discuss for now.

问：SCII完成了多少？
答：因为和其他游戏一起开发，虽然已经耗了很长时间，但是还没有什么东西能称之为完成态。完美不打折~！所以要跳多久票我们也不清楚。

问：据说会有战网二代！
答：暂时还不能告诉你具体情况，但是我们保证会很有趣。

问：虫族片头里没有Kerrigan!Kerrigan会以女王单位的身份出现吗？另外，蟑螂是否和韩国人说的xx（译者注：韩文）有关系？
答：1，不会；2，没关系。

问：星际原班人马有多少在开发星际2？有人认为C&C开发组人员的加入让SCII不再那么强悍了。
答：至少有12名原开发人员参与SCII开发。后面一个问题请放心，我们保证你们会看到能载入游戏史的强大作品。

问：平衡性问题怎么解决？
答：平衡性确实是一个很难处理的问题，开发团队都经常测试游戏来保证平衡。我们的聪明小伙子们也在计划从玩家团体中获得反馈——今天也包括于这个计划中。我们会经常出补丁来平衡。

问：新的图形引擎如何？
答：那不是最强悍的，但是使用了很多最新的图形处理技术。

问：虫族战役以入侵并征服神族领地和搞定人族结束。还会有新战役吗？还会完全按照原来的历史背景发展吗？另外，女王看上去像英雄，是否需要科技来建造她？
答：历史背景仍然在考量中，而且我们不会在公众场合讨论这个问题。女王从游戏开始就可用，在防御上非常有效。更多的信息随后会放出。

问：母舰是否会变成如同女王一样的传奇单位？SCII的图像绝赞，但是对机器的要求会不会太高？
答：游戏内容依然在开发中，一切都还没有决定。女王更像是一个全能单位，而不是传奇单位...虫族没有防御会很弱。（译者注：这两句原文不清）女王不会是英雄单位。我们想要更多的人来玩SCII，所以现在大多数电脑都能玩SCII。需求将会是图形卡+Pixelator 2.0。（译者注：这是什么需求？求解）

问：SCII的测试会如何进行？有些人说SCII会和原版相近；SCII会专注于保持和原版的相似，还是着重开发新东西？
答：SCII的测试方案还在讨论中。原版星际很流行，我们希望继承他的流行元素；当然了，新鲜因素也会加入就是了。

问：虫族的感染和自爆兵在原版中用的不多，在SCII中会有怎样的改变？被感染单位的人口要怎么算？
答：感染还在开发中，我们今天展出的只是已经部分完成的区块。开发团队会保证感染在SCII中的战力——甚至补给站也可以被感染！现在只有被感染的机枪兵，但是这一切还在改动中。

问：原版SC的AI水平不高。现在SCII中的电脑智商和寻路系统开发得怎么样了？神族和人族都有可以跨越地形的单位，似乎虫族还没有。是否会有这样的单位被开发出来？另外，是否有措施抵制随意修改他人制作的地图？
答：部分开发团队成员正在搞这个，但是这还处于开发中，不是最终产品。现在坑道虫可以跨越地形。我们注意到了你所说的恶意地图修改，正在讨论处理方案。

问：你提到了游戏开发需要时间，但是CEO Bruce同学说不会太久了。什么时候这种等待会结束？如果SCII进入市场，你们在销售上会如何安排？
答：具体的开发时间我们没办法给出期限；这个游戏必须是完美的。我们不可能尽快放出SCII；除此之外，我们不会就此让原版星际进入垃圾堆。只要还有一个人在玩SCI，我们就不会停止服务。

问：现在三族都已经放出，每族都有专长。开发者对于各族的弱势又是如何考虑的呢？
答：每一个人对各个种族的强项弱项都会有自己的看法，而我们不会做出评判。

问：是否会在星际中加入韩风元素？
答：我们在考虑。你看，我们在汉城放出虫族，这就证明了我们有多注重韩国市场。

问：韩国的普通人是否能在近期玩到SCII？虽然是电子竞技项目，但是原版SC并没有观察者模式，在SCII中这点会不会得到改变？在战网上会不会有战队？
答：在WWI和暴雪控上，我们都会让大家有机会体验的。电子竞技方面，我们正在策划中；但是讨论比赛或是战队，还为时太早。

感谢Starcraft-source.

Game FAQ

Q: How far in development is SC2? And how much of it will be included in the final version?

星际争霸2的开发进度如何了?相比最后发售的正式版,目前的测试版中已经包含了多少内容?

A: Nothing's for certain. It took us such a long time because we were developing other games. Because of our perfectionism we can't say for sure when SC2 will be released.

没有什么内容是确定的.我们在这个项目(星际争霸2)上花费了相当长的时间---因为我们同时也在开发别的游戏(什么?暗黑破坏神3?)出于我们完美主义的态度,我们没有办法告诉你什么时候星际争霸2可以发售.

Q: I heard there were immense changes to Battle.net. What are these changes?

我们听说BN会有很大的变化?会是些什么呢?

不好意思,我们现在还不能告诉你太多具体的情况.我只能告诉你们开发在平稳的进行中---新的BN会让你大吃一惊!

Q: There's no Kerrigan in the video. Is the Queen Kerrigan? If not, how is Kerrigan represented? Also the Roach looks like a... roach. People called Paladins from WoW Roaches so is that the reason?
A: The Roach has nothing to do with the Paladin. Kerrigan is a unique unit and will only be playable in the single-player campaign.

ZERG的VIDEO里面没有KERRIGAN...她是那个女皇么?如果不是,她会怎么出场?有人说ROACH和WOW里面的圣骑士有关系?(小强...)

ROACH和PAL没有任何关系.KERRIGAN会是个很特殊的单位,而且只在单人任务中出场.

Q: How many Starcraft 1 developers are involved in SC2 right now? I heard some developers of C&C were brought over and therefore was not a real sequel to SC1.

星际争霸1中的开发者现在还有多少在星际争霸2的开发组中?我听说有一些由于有一些C&C系列的开发者加入星际争霸2的开发工作,导致星际争霸2不再是原汁原味的星际续作?

A: There are about 12 original developers. It also sticks to the original and is therefore a sequel! We've worked hard to make this a fun game and tried to satisfy picky players on multiplayer.

还有12名初代的开发人员在现在的开发组.至于后一个问题,无须质疑!我们保证你们会看到能载入游戏史的强大作品!

Q: How is the balancing process going?

平衡性工作进展的如何了?

A: The balancing process is very complicated! That’s why us devs are always playing and balancing the game. Fortunately we have great talents here. We’re planning on getting feedback from this demonstration. We will also balance through patches. Map developers from WC2 are participating in SC2. We can’t tell you much now but you will be able to experience it soon.

平衡性的调整工作确实非常麻烦.这就是为什么我们开发者们要经常测试游戏从而调整平衡性.幸运的是我们在这方面非常的有天赋.我们将会从接下来的一系列巡回展活动中获取反馈信息.我们同样会通过补丁来调整平衡性.WarCraft3的那些地图开发者们在参与星际争霸2的地图开发工作.我不能告诉你太多的东西,但是相信你很快就会体验到这些内容.

Q: I heard SC2 uses a new graphics engine. Can you tell us the specifics?

A: I’m not a graphics expert, but I can tell you we have several advanced graphics techniques being used.

我对这些不太了解.但是我可以告诉你我们使用了一些先进的图形技术.

Q: The Zerg scenario ended with the Protoss attacking, but the Terran were conquered for the Protoss assault. Is the sequel loyal to the original storyline? The Queen seems to be used like a hero. Do we have to tech to use it?

Zerg的战役演示以Protoss以及臣服于Protoss的Terran的联合突袭结束.这个继承于原版星际争霸的故事线?新的女皇看上去像个英雄单位?我们需要什么科技来建造它?

A: The storyline is still under development. We can’t give you any details on it yet. The Queen is usable from the beginning and is specialized towards defense. More to come later.

故事线目前还在设计中,我不能告诉你细节.女皇在一场战斗的初期就可以使用,而且它在防守基地的时候拥有很强的实力.

Q: In WWI the Mothership was a super unit and was changed to a normal unit in Blizzcon. Queen has become a superunit so what’s become of the Mothership? Do terrans have a superunit as well? The graphics look great and the system requirements look pretty steep.

在WWI07的时候,母船是个超级单位,但是后来在blizzcon中被削弱成了普通单位.女皇也是这样么?Terran拥有超级单位么?另外游戏图像看上去不错,这需要很高的配置么?

A: We can’t tell you anything for certain in the game right now. The Queen’s not really a superunit but really a specialized unit. It’s weak when not defended! It’s not a hero. The sys reqs are low enough so many more users can play. A graphics card with Pixel Shader 2.0 is required.

我们没办法告诉你这些不确定的东西.女皇目前不是超级单位,但它仍然是一个货真价实的特种单位.它如果缺乏保护将会很脆弱!它不是英雄单位. 系统需求一如既往的比较平民化.一块支持PIXEL SHADER2.0的显卡即可.

Q: How will the testing take place? Pro gamers say SC2 feels similar to SC1 and was that a main focus? Or was the focus more on new content?

星际争霸2的测试会如何进行?有些人说星际争霸2会和原版相近;那么你们会专注于保持和原版的相似,还是着重开发新的要素?

虫族的自爆人和女皇的感染技能以前并不太常用.那么现在如何?那些(视频中)生产出来的被感染单位占用人口么?

A: Infestation is still being tested. We’ve only shown our work in progress. We’re trying to make Infestation a valid tactic in SC2. Supply depots can be infested as well. This will be a useful ability this time around. Currently you can only produce infested marines but that’s subject to change.

感染机能还在测试中,我们只是展示一下它的效用.我们希望感染技能拥有足够的战斗力.类似于人类的补给站都可以被感染,这会是个非常有用的技能.当然目前虫族还只能生产被感染的Marine。

Q: SC1’s AI was a bit weak. How’s pathfinding and singleplayer? The Protoss have a cliff walker unit but the Zerg don’t seem to have one. Is there a unit made with this ability? Recently user-made maps are popular but there are some restrictions with licensing. For example making a map unusable is downloaded then changed. Is there a way to secure maps?

星际争霸1的AI是比较糟糕的.那么目前寻路AI系统和单人战役AI设计得如何了?Protoss拥有了跨越地形的单位,但是看上去Zerg还没有,那么他们会有么?另外,是否有措施来保护自己制作的地图,防止别人随意修改?

A: The devs are working to resolve this issue (AI and pathfinding). But this is still under construction! We can’t tell you anything about what the final build will look like. The Zerg do not have a cliff walker but use Nydus Worms. We’re aware of the problem with securing user-made maps and are considering options to resolve this issue.

我们只能告诉你开发人员在解决这些AI的问题.此外,我们也在想办法设计一些加密地图的方法.

你说开发过程需要很长的时间,但是你们的老大Bruce Hack说游戏即将发售.那么什么时候能发售?另外星际争霸2的发售会影响星际争霸1的销售么?

A: We can't say when we'll release. We'll be going for perfection. Also we have differences with Bruce Hack. However we both want to release this game ASAP. And because we have SC2 it doesn't mean we'll forget about SC1. If there's one user that loves SC1 we'll keep it going.

我们不能告诉你发售的时间.这个游戏必须是完美的,因此们不可能尽快放出SCII,我们和CEO之间存在立场的区别.除此之外.我们不会就此让原版星际就此退出历史舞台.只要还有一个人在玩SCI,我们就不会停止服务.

Q: As of today, all 3 races have been announced. Each race has strengths and weaknesses. What do you think, as a developer, are the strengths and weaknesses of each of the three races?

到现在为止,三个种族都公布了,每个种族都有自己的优势和缺点.那么,作为一个开发人员,你对这些种族的优势和缺点有什么看法?

A: Us developers don't focus too much upon strengths and weaknesses. That's why we don't add so many unnecessary features. The player is left to decide what the strengths and weaknesses are.

我们开发人员不能总盯着这些优缺点.这就是为什么我们一般不对这些内容进行评论.

Q: SC1 is more popular in Korea than anywhere else. Will there be any plans to be made with Korea in mind?

在韩国,星际争霸1比其他任何地方都受欢迎.那么在星际争霸2种会添加韩国特色的元素么?

A: We know about the popularity in Korea. Because Koreans love competitive gaming we're trying to make this an e-Sport game. Just revealing the game in Seoul should tell you how much we love the Korean market.

我们都知道星际争霸在韩国的受欢迎程度.因此我们把发布会都放到了这里进行.我们也很喜欢韩国这里的市场。（委婉的避开了韩国人的提问）

Q: Will there be an event where people can play SC2 in Korea? Also the Observer mode in SC1 was rather lacking. Will SC2 have new features? For other RTS'es the game's site hosts tournaments and leagues. Will this be done for SC2?

在韩国会不会举行开放给玩家试玩SC2的发布会/活动?另外,OB模式在星际争霸1中完全没有,星际争霸2种会有这个设定么?另外,星际争霸2的战队和比赛什么时候能出现?

A: It was very important for us to announce the game through WWI and Blizzcon. Therefore we're planning on having more such conventions. The e-Sports department is doing all that they can to create the best multiplayer experience. This can change depending on the players' opinions, however. On a side note we're preparing a WC3 tournament and are expecting to host similar leagues for SC2. However this doesn't seem like the right time to talk about leagues or tournaments just yet.

WWI和Blizzcon是很重要的发布新闻的渠道。我们也会有更多的类似于这些的活动。我们的电子竞技部门正在努力做相关的工作,从而建立一个良好的多人对战环境.这些内容会因为玩家们的意见而修改.我们正在筹备WarCraft3的赛事,我们希望这些能够用在星际争霸2上面.不过,现在讨论电子竞技无疑有些为时过早.
