Cavez also mentioned it several months ago on the SC2 forums, don't ask for sources if you won't give them.

In a sit down Q&A, it was informed 8 would be the limit for melee, and 12 for scenario. The amount of observers at any point of either game type will be the amount of players needed to make either game 12. So a max melee game of 8 will allow 4 observers, but a heads up game will allow 10 observers.

12 player melee can really take things out of hand, UMS 12 player would be really nice for Starcraft I think.

Apparently Wraiths are supposed to be in the campaign, obviously they were in editor but supposedly campaign too.

Correct. Raynor still uses them cause he hasn't gotten the new Dominion tech yet. He also still uses medics, goliaths and firebats. I wouldn't be surprised if vultures came back as well.

We already know that, but do you know if the old Zerg units got a facelift as well, or do they still look like plastic?

Mauraders seem intimidating as fuck. They make shit go pop while everything else feels like peashooters. Anyone know their specs and intended counters?

Today we announced that StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty will not be ready for release by the end of 2009. Over the past couple of weeks, it has become clear that it will take longer than expected to prepare the new Battle.net for the launch of the game. The upgraded Battle.net is an integral part of the StarCraft II experience and will be an essential part of all of our games moving forward. This extra development time will be critical to help us realize our vision for the service.

Our mission is to develop games that deliver an epic entertainment experience. As part of that commitment, we will always take as much time as needed to ensure that our games and services meet the expectations of our players and the standard for quality that we set for ourselves as developers. As we work to make Battle.net the premier online gaming destination, we’ll also continue to polish and refine StarCraft II, and we look forward to delivering a real-time strategy gaming experience worthy of the series’ legacy in the first half of 2010.

We will share more details about the beta, Battle.net, and StarCraft II’s launch in the future. Keep an eye on the official website at http://www.starcraft2.com for updates, and as always, thank you for your continued enthusiasm and support for StarCraft II and all of Blizzard Entertainment’s games.

Fantastic, Blizzard.

Oh, come now, who REALLY thought Blizzard's statement that it'd be out before 2010 was true?

The only time they're set on their release date is when it's gold.
