Starcraft 2

I like it, I haven't beaten it yet though. I'm a little disappointed that they did not implement the same hero system as WC3.

They wanted to stick to the genre of a true "massing RTS". WC3 is an awesome game dont get me wrong, but it is different from starcraft in that it was much more dependant on microing your hero and a small force of units than your economy and macro like in starcraft. WC3 forced you to have a relitavely small force because the more men you have them less income you get and your "food" was capped at 90 instead of 200.

If you want to play with heroes in SC2 you can play a custom game, but as for the real game im glad they stuck to the original starcraft formula, while adding alot of innovations and updates that only make the game more enjoyable to play.
 
anyone good at multiplayer? Looking for tips because I suck lol
 
don't fall for blizzards scheme, they wait what, 11 year before they realease starcraft 2, and they dont even introduce a new species or 2,

i'm a liberalfag and i'm pretty sickened by corporate influence...

but the top corporate structure doesn't have much control in the actual details of the game, things like deciding species and how they balance out etc

they just profit from the creativity of their programmers, designers, and artists
 
i remember hearing about other species back in the day! theyve had 11 years, there should be alot more to the game


plus whats with this gay "were gonna split up the campagin and make you pay for three games instead of 1

i think blizzard has made enough money and its time for the person on charge to say "ok were rich lets do something for the fans now"

bring on starcraft 3 in three years with 2 new races and about at least double units

Its very difficult to release a new race into an RTS game and have it be perfectly balanced, so while it would be cool to have another race, id rather have the three be (relitavely) balanced as they are.

Also, yes expansions are just another way for them to suck money out of you. However with their expansions blizzard always backs them up by constantly adding patches to their games, providing free online play (except WoW, which is understandable) and generally having a very polished product. Ill pay a little more for that any day as opposed to a game that i buy once, play for a few hours, then never even pick it up again.

If you want a game with lots of units and races go play age of empires or something, starcraft is about balanced gameplay, easy to learn difficult to master.

They do, but I've watched some REALLY GOOD replays of diamond league players, where the game lasted over 1/2 hour. Pretty much close to wiping the map clean of resources lol.

anyone play ww1 trenches?

is there a version on sc2 yet?
 
sc2 is the shit.
yeah another race would be awesome but its pretty hard to be balanced.

good players do rush but a good player is able to defend the early rushes. most matches do last a long time to the point of running out of resources.
 
They tried making SC2 as balanced as possible. Adding another race would just make everything even more complex.

If you look at the SC2 forums, you will see people complaining all the time about unbalanced units, even the top players in the world.

If it were just Blizzard, the game would be a lot better. But since its 2010 and Activision has them now, all they care about is money, not customer satisfaction and making a godly game. But I remember reading some where Activision had no control over what went into the game.

But look at Battle.net 2.0 ... that thing shit the bed with badness...
 
If anyone wants to practice just add me. My ign is Dahmer.697

My macro has improved a lot but I still seem to suck most of the time, if anyone want to play a few games and give me some pointers that would be great!
 
I play SC2!
My handle is SenseiStar.

I can beat the AI on hard pretty easily, and I do fairly well against most of my opponents.
Good times!
Multiplayer is what Starcraft2 is all about. Fluffykins is just being a troll. Obviously the game is going to make money. It's the most interesting version of chess and/or rock paper scissors I've ever played.
I'm glad there're no Heros in the game. That whole concept strikes me as kinda gay. Well crafted strategies and counters based on scouting and economy management is a lot more mentally stimulating than just cheesing out with a hero with magical spells W0o0o0o...no.
