    Prop 8

    I wonder what leg the pro-ban will stand on to get the appeal.
  2. thing about war3 was that the heros go in the way of those who wanted to have a pile of small units.
  3. I never understood the joy of the cutscenes. I always got annoyed at the terrible teeth and the uncanny valley of their faces all the time. That said, SC1 was one of the first RTS's who did it's best to integrate the story deeper into gameplay. Also the idea of "hero" units was awesome, even if it was handicapped with "You got em, but they die and you fail" so most people kept them in their bases to prevent the death.
  4. Notice when he's got the heads on his wall, Chuck Norris head is there.
  5. Pretty much. I felt like I was going to ROCK multi because I could zip around with medics (I'd played tiny bits of the beta) but medics didn't exist, or vultures. Hell, it kinda feels like the Single Player only units were put in there to give each mission an unlock.
  6. well it's not just medics that show up to play teases, but vultures, wraiths, firebats and science vessels all appear and say "HA! We got updated for SC2 but you can't play us!"
  7. The secret to that problem is cheap unit spam. I've found that if you make enough M&Ms (Marines & Medics) you can do anything. Although the campaign is a tease and most of the "legacy" units are fake outs only for the campaign.
  8. And somebody who buys a number of tickets at a Lotto will have a higher chance of winning than the next guy.

  10. The problem I have with these missions is that they give you a new unit in almost every single mission. It's like "here's how you win", plus I have a few years of SC1 experience (I'm not saying I'm good, I'm a noob compared to most), but still add up these two and it equals extremely easy missions for me. Those missions, while definitely fun and well made, leave extremely little room for experimentation. I'm fine with that kind of mission sometimes but I mostly don't want to be told what to do. I wanted them to give me the objective "do this", and let me figure out how to do it. That's what I'm hoping for in the final missions, and this drop pods one seems to deliver that. I wasn't in the mood to multitask as heavily as the drop pods mission seemed to demand, I was tired. I'll try it later. This is basically because of the non-linearity of the missions. The game cannot bet on you having any particular unit except the MOST basic ones and the ones you get on that missions so the ones on that mission it is.
  11. Did some work on moving. Got told off by my mom for being lazy and playing to many games. Went to work after having broken my glasses so I'm using old, not the right prescription, models. At least I see Our Almighty Lord Al Yankovic tomorrow.
  12. once you hit outland things should pick up in terms of pace simply due to the sheer overpowered nonsense that is DK's before 80. Also quests are much better grouped. Although you won't see the phasing/epic questlines from the DK starting zone again until you hit northrend.
  13. From what I've seen Marines and Marauders are your main early fighters. But my suggestion would be for you to go onto youtube and watch a series of the tutorials. I think this is ultimately the downfall for SC multiplayer in that you HAVE to know "build orders" in order to exist with clicks per minute being important (I wish I was kidding) It's almost TO competitive (being able to do competitive and non-competitive random fights would be nice)
  14. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwtjYW1qmjM I'd argue that point The first mission is hardly representative of the entire game tig. But for the game you're fighting all the races.
  15. http://www.lightningsafety.com/nlsi_pls/probability.html 1/280,000 Family member was struck twice, old teacher was struck three times.
  16. I've had family members struck by lightning a couple times.
  17. Actually Heavy Weapons Guy is able to weld too.
  18. BTW if people have L4D2 and me on their friends list they may get dragged into a string of Vs games... Der can attest to this.
  19. I'd do technician, but healing is out of my comfort zone so . I'm in the SoDOFF if you want to find me gifted
  20. NOW IT'S COWARD KILLING TIME!
  21. Is this person male or female? Also, did the Cirque du Soleil call and get their employee back? well, here's one of his other sprites
  22. I think it really depends on how you play for who you feel like you're beating up the most. I felt like I was taking on the Dominion the most, but then I did the propoganda stuff last. So basically I think we can all agree that the biggest problem with SC2 is that it's not linear.
  23. Tetris... just... tetris
