Starcraft II Megathread V.1 'Hell, It's About Time' - Games

Fail troll is fail.

[QUOTE=Evald;23820890]Yes, most of those reviews are biased and can easily be either bought or the reviewers are just nostalgic. Yes, i know that C&C 3 got an 85, but i mean, come ON, what does this game have that no other strategy game has? Tell me, please, so i don't feel is if this overpriced space waster i bought is worth it. I'm not asking you for reviews, no, i'm asking YOU to tell me how is it better.[/QUOTE] You don't like the game, it's your own damn fault for buying it. Should have played the first or looked into it more. Don't come crying about how your games are better because you're butthurt you got a game you didn't like.

[QUOTE=Thom12255;23820901]Fail troll is fail.[/QUOTE] Umm, me ranting about wasting 60$ on an overrated game - trolling :frogout:

[QUOTE=Evald;23820488]You have any facts to back that up? Since if C&C gameplay wise was a lot better than starcraft 2, and if by your count that's shitty, then starcraft 2 is even shittier. I don't know, maybe it's just me and my unbiased oppinion since i never played the first one, so i don't get any nostalgia. [/QUOTE] What C&C are you referring to? Because if you mean C&C1 or TS, then maybe, but if you are referring to C&C3 and later, then hahahah are you serious?. [QUOTE=Evald;23820488] [editline]08:45AM[/editline] I mean, in C&C the tanks actually feel like... tanks! (unlike SC2, where they feel like a hyper active clustefuck)[/QUOTE] You mean those tanks that 3 infantrymen with AK-47s can take out? Yep, definitely feels like tanks. [QUOTE=Evald;23820488] And the effects in SC2, i mean come on, where are my cinematic bullet tracers?[/QUOTE] Yeah let's add something that: 1. Would cover everything in flashy lights like a website made by a 8 years old and 2. bring most PCs to their knees. [QUOTE=Evald;23820488] What about the planes? i was expecting some huge ass fighter combat, wait wait, THAT'S NOT STATIONARY, i mean come ON, might aswell place tanks and let them battle in air.[/QUOTE] Things like Battlecruisers are meant to be still, while smaller fighters definitely aren't meant to (and that bother me too, still I guess it's for gameplay's sake). Still this bothers me too (and the fucked up scale on BCs). I know I'm probably feeding a troll, but I'm bored so...

[B]Godamnit[/B] played a single 2v2 game last night, 13pool Muti rush. Now, first one i rushed was the Zerg player, killed off most of his drones, snuck around the the Terran base killed a few SCV's but his marines picked them off. So, sent a few more, my teammate at this point joins me with his own air units, but no dice, Zerg player has upgraded hydra's and the anit-air buildings. Aaand then we got raped. I have a feeling i should try 1v1 instead :ohdear:

[QUOTE=Evald;23820934]No, i want to ask YOU how is it BETTER jesus christ, it's like trying to explain life to a person who has asperges.[/QUOTE] Answer me this first: Why are you in a thread about a game you dislike, when you're surrounded by people who like it? Nobody gives a shit about whatever you try to show us, and you're stupid for thinking we'll "explain why it's better." We just like the game, is that a fucking crime?

I just got the game and excuse me if this has already been mentioned in the thread but... When the prisoner was getting geared up in the intro cinematic and the computer voice stated " Prisoner 626 " am I the only one who couldn't help but think this?

I mean paying 60 euros for a game with amazing reviews and being dissapointed is not what i expected.

If you don't like it, us talking about why [i]we[/i] like it isn't going to do a damn thing. Next time, do your research better for a game you KNOW you'll like.

Certanly looks like it since i didn't even get an awnser to my main question, and the question is very simple, mind you. how is it better?

Oh man, I was doing so fucking well micro'ing my units in the game vs Murdoco. I had a huge feeling I was going to whoop his ass. No offense man. I had about 15 banshees lined up on the right side of the map close to his base ready to be cloaked. I already knew what he was building because I had three CCs with orbital command. Sorry about my internet again. [editline]02:26AM[/editline] [QUOTE=Evald;23821082]It looked like a game i would like, and i also want to see if you are not blindly defending a game.

This isn't a rant thread. We get that you don't like the game. You've already stated that in one post, we don't need it in ten more. Make your own thread if you dislike it.

No. I don't need to back up why I like a game. It's just fun. It's not "blindly defending", I've played the game and know it's fun.

Wow just had some kid rage quit on me because marine spam is apparently hacking. I was honestly stunned.

[QUOTE=Evald;23820984]Yeah, you explained to me that C&C sucks, but now, explain to me how SC2 is better[/QUOTE] New C&Cs do (well 3 was decent), but the old ones are awesome, never did I say they sucked. And no, SC isn't better than C&C (excluding Tiberian Twilight), they're on-par. [editline]09:32AM[/editline] Also I'm speeding through the campaign on Casual now, I have to get to [sp]Media Blitz[/sp], get the documents and finish the secret mission on normal.

Also, this game seems to just swallow up Paged Pool Memory. After playing for a while it starts spitting out warnings and I have intermittent awful slowdowns after that. [QUOTE=MuTAnT;23821132]Wow just had some kid rage quit on me because marine spam is apparently hacking. I was honestly stunned.[/QUOTE] I once proxy rushed in a 2v2 game and the guy I attacked asked how I got so many zealots so fast. (I hit him with like 6 and kept making more) I told him I was hacking and that it was called Skill. Him and his teammate continued to insult me for the next few minutes on how bad I was for having to cheat. My friend and I were laughing our asses off :razz:

Just got the game! Installing now!

So I just beat a very hard zerg AI as terran, I'm going to go try to beat an insane, can anyone tell me if this is a good indicator that I will do decent in multiplayer? In Warcraft 3 I can barely beat a normal, so beating a very hard feels like a big accomplishment for me :)

I'm thinking of buying the digital version of SC2 through the Blizzard Store. I'm guessing I should?

Just went back to play Starcraft 1 campaign and its unplayable. Every texture is pink and green =\

Damn the secret mission is by far the best one in the whole game.

Alright Insane bot, lets do this.

[QUOTE=Jund;23818591]As a Terran it's pretty easy to block your ramp. Go Supply Depot, Barracks, and Supply Depot. Put the rally point for the Barracks inside your base so your units don't spawn outside. If you do this quickly enough you'll be able to prevent any proper scouting and 4 Marines will be able to crush 6 Zerglings if they can't get in range.[/QUOTE] If someone tries to hit a you with 6 lings when you're terran you're going to win in the first place because they are an idiot. [editline]03:57AM[/editline] [QUOTE=Tiowa;23818759]fucking photon cannons in my base[/QUOTE] Cannon rushes are bad and easily countered if you are paying attention.

In Warcraft 3 I can barely beat a normal, so beating a very hard feels like a big accomplishment for me :)[/QUOTE] The only difference between very hard and insane is that the latter gets 7 minerals per trip instead of 5 on normal minerals, which makes it really unfair.

Wait now that [sp]Kerrigan is human (or at least good) again, will the Zerg under her control turn into some peace&love swarm? No more infestation? No more Zergs swarming over solar systems?[/sp]

^ FFFFUUUU why'd I click that, I have a fucking impulse to click spoiler tags no matter what.

Name: Firestarter Code: 768 Region: Europe Add me to the list, and feel free to add me to your friend list if you want to play some 1v1. I'm not that good though.

I know I'm probably feeding a troll, but I'm bored so...[/QUOTE] BC are pretty fast, it's just that they fly way higher than normal aircraft. BCs and Carriers look smaller because it would be a hugggge clusterfuck if you can't find your 20 marines hidden under your BC. [editline]11:08AM[/editline] Oh and could you add me to the list as well? Jund Region: US Username: Jund Char. Code: 576 Is this the right format?

Finially out of placement league, into bronze with 4 losses 1 win, even though i remember winning at least 3 -_- Last game i lost to about 50 marines.
