You are right, but you know Blizzard is bitching about this stuff and probably won't care about your opinion if they decide to be bitches.

Does HOTS have huge base building missions like Brood War? I really missed the lack of those types of missions in WOL.

Was away for several days. Is there a release of HotS or any other workaround allowing one to play the expansion's campaign?

Yes by downloading starter edition from blizz servers and let it update. Then use latest offline cache + latest razor keygen for WOL. Then just load the save from first mission of HOTS , restart the mission and continue.

yes.

It will patch itself with hots, no matter if you actually bought it or not (yeah, its retarded... they add 7 or so gb to your install dir, even if you don't bought the expansion lol).

Now, I download the SC2 game client via BZ's site, I let it update to the latest patch (which adds HotS's expansion), then by simply using my legit account and that mysterious savegame file (which is probably copied and pasted into the saves in Documents?) and finally I can play the full campaign (probably have to block the game in WF as well?)?

Yeah its recommended to block it to prevent achievements to unlock and risk your account to be banned.

Well, the game can't access the Internet when blocked via WF or when the Icable's been outright plugged out, so I guess no progress will be registered and BZ can only see that you have the game installed but still haven't played it?

Or just use blank account Laughing
Offline mode with cache is recommended for yarr's because it lets you play whole WOL campaign as well.

Heard that patch 2.0.6 (live in US still not in EU) fucks up HOTS loading save method. So i suggest staying completely offline until working solution for 2.0.6 is out.

Afaik even if you get starter edition, you will actually have on your HDD the FULL game. Savegame can be found several pages back.

Yes. If you don't care about sigleplayer, you can't just buy HOTS and play multiplayer with the new units. Blizzard wants you to pay for BOTH Razz
If you care about the campaign, you should buy WOL first anyway.
