Re: Starcraft 2

i see...

outside the US the game price here on mexico its 30usd but limited version after six months of play, you have to pay a fee to enter to b.net or you have the option to download from their site the stardar edition for unlimited access...

Re: Starcraft 2

ya gotta play it like wc3; if you're working with a team, and not just solo matches, quick synced rushes, and specialized teching strats are always a good idea. unit combos that compliment your teamates builds --- own hard. search map fast; know when to attack and pull back. oh i missed bnet so much.

#1402938Post 103 of 116

Re: Starcraft 2

yeah. i dont know how to do any of that shit.

[URL="http://www.teamspeak.com/"]teamspeak[/URL] and [URL="http://www.ventrilo.com/"]ventrillo[/URL] help considerably. powerful tools for communicating in game. it makes all the difference

Re: Starcraft 2

i just need to practice a crapload too...just suck at rts games, but lots of fun.

#1402941Post 106 of 116

Re: Starcraft 2

yeah, i did too brotha. practice and quick mouse clicking, and learning from eminent clans helped me out. use the mini window to set waypoints when possible; and build a base in such a way that makes it ultra defensive. sometimes it's the way ya arrange certain buildings that can make the difference when the base is under attack. best of luck. we gotta play soon forsure. my comp is dated... so i've been playing on a good freinds when i can, but am getting a new rig hopefully before my birthday :(

we will pwn fools!

:roflmao:

Yeah I really haven't played too much yet so I can't be mad that I suck...Give it some time. Going to take me forever to remember build orders and what to counter with though, I just suck at remembering crap like that.

Re: Starcraft 2

werd ganj. micro is EVERYTHING. i personally need to learn how to multi-task far better by using my keyboard more; that's how pros roll. it quadruples speed and efficiency!

Long doc about BoxeR. Watched a bit of it, looks pretty good. Its 45 mins and is only part one of an upcoming series I guess.

Re: Starcraft 2

Damn ive been working Mon-Sat 9am-8pm and dont have any time to play :(

Boxer got pwned in every GSL that he has played. There was only one game that really caught my attention. He had like 3+ expos and started making like 7 orbital commands, then he sent all of his SCVs to the enemy and just used mules from that point on. He had a HUGE army then and took his opponent in a very fashionable way.
