[QUOTE=nikomo;31348896]You didn't active your key on Battle.net?
I did, not even sure if I still have the physical copies.[/QUOTE]
Oh, I'll go try.
[QUOTE=XanaToast.;31314266]i still play custom matches and replay campaign, i had to rebuy frozen throne because i broke the disk when i was 5[/QUOTE]
when you were 5? This game isn't that old! What are you 12?
I still pay it with my friends but most of them play DotA.
I like MOBAs but never got into dota...
Oh god I remember at a LAN party playing Hero Siege with 3 of my friends.

we won
Can anyone go check and screenshot what's left of the Battenet?
Bot games and DotA.
How depressing.

It's nice to see there's still new maps though
Thankyou for the screenshot.
[QUOTE=Dark RaveN;31342456]Wow, I never thought someone in facepunch also adores Warcraft universe.
Say, lets organise a game of custom map over battle.net? Night of the Dead, X Hero Siege, maybe Enfo's Team Survival?
plz no dota.[/QUOTE]
Lordaeron = One of the most awesome fictional human nations, evar. I dislike the new story of it in WoW; Alliance killing scarlet crusade? FAIL. Scarlet crusade being easily pwned by horde? Even more fail.
Hey, Holy Crusade, SC1 had heroes too, but its not the same.
also
SC2 lags. :/

OMG.
Warcraft 3 isn't dead yet! I just joined a Lordaeron Tactics and its half full, might even start. <3

did you miss the screenshot i posted
the mechanics are [I]exactly[/I] the same
Island Defense was my favorite. One player is the titan, everyone else is their own builder. Each builder has special pros and cons about them, each plays pretty differently. Damn, I spend hours in games like that, and the Vampire ones too.

I love ID as well, but the community is almost as elitist as DOTA.
I fucking love the undead. I mean those frostwyrms with their freezing breath are fucking useful when it comes to taking down towers, plus you have fast access to air units with the gargoyle.
But the orcs have that sexy-ass shamans and their bloodlust. I should get more into banshees.

The resident evil mod, some other zombie mods I played and the Kodo tag were pretty cool.
Playing through the campaign again (RoC and TFT) on hard and I got to say, after playing SC2 for so long it's quite difficult to get used to the 12 unit selection again and the god awful path finding. Still enjoyable as ever however, I recommend everyone replay it.

Every time I tried to play "normal" game I got Tower Rushed / enemy walled himself off.
Fuck RTS, X HERO SIEGE 3.12 all day every day.
I've literally spend way too much time on this map, all special events, waves mob types, heroes pretty much still memorized.
Fuck, I once got bored and decided to solo it. Takes a while, but with Paladin and his Ball it was cakewalk. Whole game is pretty much cakewalk unless "pros" ask for Double Hero Extreme X2.....I despise Double Hero mode.
funniest moments included all-items dryad (afk. making dinner, still mvp) and Voodoo mastah. Wave soon ? No problem, got 50 exploding wards there.

The 12 unit selection fucks me right off.

This is the fucking reason I hate playing those macromanagement maps like footmen frenzy.
Did anyone else really like the undead campaign?
I always played the RP maps, loved them in the original SC and in WC3, does anyone know if there's some good ones for SC2?
I remember playing survival maps with a friend of mine years ago, was so much fun, favourite campaign is probably undead though
IMO Warcraft 3 still has better custom maps. My opinion will be changed if someone makes a god-damn War of the Worlds map already.

The mechanics might be the same, but the models and abilities and keybinds(?) are not. Memorize how to take a part a car and put it back together again, great. Do the same with a truck? Well, they're the same mechanics, but they're not the same as a whole.
Risk, tower defence, 300, loap, hungry felhounds and millions more.
The best part was how they were so small they downloaded in like 10 seconds, yet each could provide up to a years replay value easily.
Best times! I only hope HoN custom games can do it some justice when they iron out the secure transfer issue.
I love this game. My favorite quote was from the Human helicopter things (Gyrocopters? Forgot what they were called) and they would say "THEY CAME FROM BEHIND" and die. Also the story was fucking amazing.

They were Gnomes. :3
Thanks for caring about this thread, sad to see it's mostly a dead game filled with thou vile bots.
Perhaps if you guys play WoW, we could play sometime?
Bunch of my favorite maps are botted. Hooray!
Oh man, so many great games in Custom Maps. I really liked the system they used to find games, too.
Let's see now: Winter Maul (and other Mauls)
LOAP (Life of a Peasant)
Angel Arena
That Dragon Ball Z one
Footman Frenzy
Those Obstacle Courses
Run Kitty Run
and so many other great ones.
I purchased the battle chest for this game and diablo 2. My first blizzard game. <cries>
Anyone mind PM'ing me their key code? I want to see if I can put it in digitally on battle.net, I don't have the dics but this thread makes me want it so bad and I would like to at least try it.
Got bored of WoW and then noticed I had a copy of Warcraft 3 and the expansion lying around. Re-Installed it and bet it again, my god, such an awesome RTS.
Risk by bots is bloody fun though.
