I played three rounds last night. Did two Human vs Zerg and one Protoss vs Zerg... The damn Roaches are a pain in the ass. They are able to burrow to anyplace on the map and hit for an extremely high amount. Piece of shits.

I was sitting here thinking that who ever recorded these videos sucks. Then I realized, I'll probably be just as bad. D'OH!

Yeah, only did a few very easy AI games last night so I could get an idea of how each race's tech trees had changed, and while the core tactics are roughly the same, there are some really interesting new mechanics for each race to implement. Going to try human opponents tonight.

How were you able to do AI matches? It was greyed out for me. :(

Just make a Custom Game, and then click the "+Add A.I." for each player slot.

I got stuck when I first logged in, though. When I started to do matchmaking, everything was greyed out and I couldn't start any matches. I had to log off and log back in, though, and everything was fine.

Looks like around two hours (http://www.giantbomb.com/news/giant-bombs-starcraft-ii-beta-live-stream/1875/) from the GB crew.

These video's keep me happy.

Except when I go to see another part of the screen or send out scouts, then realise I'm not actually playing.

I'd probably be sub-par in MP anyway, I have not played SC for years and I still have the nightmares of when I would occassionally run into a hardcore player.

I catch myself trying to scroll the screen with my mouse, like, I wanna see what's up there....

I am too. I used to do that a lot with WoW videos. Kept trying to pan to the sides.

For whatever reason, I'm not nearly as excited about SC2 as I thought I would be.

Diablo III though? MMmmmm.

Copy and paste from the other thread.


Here's some interesting stuff. The guys at PC Games Hardware posted some screen caps at 2560 x 1600 resolution with highest details and 4x TSSAA. Check it out here (http://www.pcgameshardware.com/aid,705223/Starcraft-2-Beta-maxed-out/Download/),to see what SC2 looks like maxed out.

Heh, funny stuff. I wish the marauder actually fired though, without damage... just to look pretty.
