**** Original Starcraft 2 Thread ****

So..Indie, you know what to do LOL :D

Also give me a buzz when the party will get started, wouldn't mind taking part is some 4v4 madness and observing

uhh I've got a great idea, shall we do 7 FFA? that is going to be insane.

Ahh ffas I remember at uni playing star1 on big game hunters and everyone ganging up on me :)
 
Irritating the hell out of me now...I cannot do shock 'n' awe. Despite destroying all three protoss bases with cloaked banshees. last one to do for the artifact achievemnts too.
 
Custom game called hard Counter is a sandbox where you can improve your micro and do general statistics like what would happen if you put 8 rauders vs 8 zealots and then you can add cc and legs.

Fantastic map, done a lot of testing just now.

In case you have not heard of it I strongly recommend for fun or improving on your micro or testing build/units effectiveness.

I am not sponsored by this map even though it might sound like it :P

Edit: or actually any unit testing map, its awesome!
 
Oh-ho just had pvp, the guy went for the usual 3 gate robo, I did that charge-a-lot opening had 14 zealots* and a sentry he had 10 stalkers by the time we met about in a middle closer to his base.

I activated guardian shild and frankly wasted it coz he just kited me into his base but chargelots took care of them stalkers and the warped in reinforcments, after that its gg.

By the by with this charge-a-lot opening as I moved out at 8:00 mark I had enough money to make an expo. So you move out for an attack and expand at the same time.

He was platinum toss player av. 60 apm, could have taken him even easier if I didn't waste the guarding shield in the begining! Also had 10 zealots remaining after initial 10 stalekrs and 3 reinforcements battle.

Edit: managed to pull off the same thing at 7:00 min and thats only with 1 gas

Is this game any good?

I do like RTS, particulalry red alert 2 back in the day, is this worth picking up?

Is it all its cracked up to be?

Last few years, most rts games have sucked golf balls!
 
Is anyone else having lock ups when u exit the game?

Sometimes get lock-ups when I try to exit the client, having to kill it in Task Manager and rarely hard-reboot..

Unlike the utter disgraces that were RA3, SupCom2, C&C4... StarCraft 2 does the original justice and is a damn good game. Highly recommended.

Sorry, that's what I mean. Only been happening since 1.1.1 patch.
 
Kar this is what I had in mind, but istead of that sentry that I got in this replay get stalker and maybe 2nd gas.

Indie I am not a pro toss player and by no means was I going to worry about scout the base, It was supposed to be a friendly game to figure this build out and not disregard because you don't like me and hate terran, open your mind okay.

As you see you get expo up and I left 3 zealots at home ( a mistake), they could have done more damage with better macro or you can leave them at home and warp in 4 stalkers (I presume with 2 gas you'd have enough gas)

Thats the idea behind that opening, if you still think its bad, fair enough, its just you never quite got the point of it when I saw you play.

Here's the replay do me a favour watch it please, I ask because I think your initial reaction would be not to watch it.

And don't worry about me bothering you guys, I have had enough of this myself and won't be coming back to this thread.

That build cant ever work, charge is amazing but if you dont go robo first you will insta lose to banshees.

3 gate robo -> expand + charge is the best option to hold off early pressure and set yourself up for a decent mid-late game imo.

playing games atm will watch later? which replay is it?

I dont hate you or the Terran race, thats a daft assumption. i jsut dont think the strat is viable. and i do think Terran early game is EASIER (not easy) than protoss early game. those are my only points opinions :/ i just played like i normally would TvP... not that i ever TvP!

That'd be a shame as I think you make useful contributions. If you could just stop taking any comments against terran as a personal slight you'd probably find the thread more palatable?
