After a little dry spell from updates and one
other "
disappointing" update, we are now graced with a lovely Q&A. This may be a small Q&A, but there is some good information in here. For example no real utilization of Direct X 11, but we are going to see a windowed mode for SC2. Good news for any of you multitasking maniacs.

1. Not all potential players of StarCraft II have played the original StarCraft before, thus they might encounter problems with the understanding of the story. Is it possible to play the campaign of StarCraft II without knowing anything? Will you come up with some things that happened in the original StarCraft and Brood War again – just so that people not familiar to the story get more information?
We plan on having story elements that will bring players up to speed on the most recent plot developments and prepare them for the StarCraft II storyline. We also plan on having a plot summary of what transpired in the original StarCraft and Brood War during the installation process. However we feel that regardless of your familiarity with the original story, all players will be able to enjoy the story developments in StarCraft II.
