[Official] SRF Starcraft II Beta Thread

[Nick Invaders]

Is the balance alright? Thats the biggest issue with starcraft 2. I feel like TvZ in starcraft 2 is going to be dropship galore..combine dropship and medic? I mean come on.

afaik there are no medics

The dropships ARE the medics

I see...oh, I remember hearing about that somewhere a while ago.

[SM-Count]

I play in bronze/silver tiers and when I go anything vT, they almost always MMM ball =\

marine marauder medivac. Only fun shit to counter with are burrowed banelings..

collosus (sp?) also are't that bad for mmm ball but their mobility sucks, cliff vision abuse doesn't work w/ medivac air vision =\

Get some sentries and FF wall, MM range sucks against colosus with ups.

Not really free since you cannot cancel your pre-order after you used the key.

[vietxboy911]

Oh, they come out with that when I have no money

I'm having probelms with the new patch and I cant get the cilent to work, so stuff will have to wait.. untill they fix it 4 meh

Launcher and installer was smooth for me, all I did was disable P2P DL so make it go faster.
Same thing with the patch, I got it in about 30 minutes or so.

ALSO, squirt, check your pm on MSN

[Toshiharu]

It keeps asking for a CD when I try installing on this computer. I have no idea why. Downloading is no problem though. Well besides last night's patch that also took an hour for a few buddies

[Mirosuke]

I thought it would be better.

I GOT STARCRAFT 2 BETA MUAHAHAHAHHAHAHAA

I really like the game although I never played Starcraft Original,although I'v played lots of Warcraft III. I'm still playing Practice League

So far these are my thoughts on the race.

Zerg

Really love the whole concept. Larvas mutating into the units is awesome. Spam Zergs and evolve them into Baneling and self-destruct them at ennemy bases muahaha This race has a lot of synergy also. I also managed to get a decent army of Mutalisk and Ultralisk because of the "gold crystal" mine. Oh and the Nydus something is really useful,was able to transfer/teleport all my units so fast.

Protoss
Not bad,also love the concept. I don't really like their units and was suprised to see the iconic "Zealot" as their "Noob Tier" unit I do like that they can "Summon" building with only one worker just like Undeads in Warcraft III.Sadly never managed to be able to build Dark Templars.

Terrans
Really really nice concept. Moving your bases around ftw? Plus upgrading the main base into a Command thingy(the one with the MULE) is really useful. I love the Reaper unit with the jetpacks Oh and Ghost + Nuke research ftw?! Also love the Hellions,great to scout around. Must importantly though, THORS

IGN: ExSoldier.red

[vietxboy911]

I'm waiting for squirt to reply so I can make his name so I can play
Tosh, whats your IGN? I'll add both of you once I get to be able to play. Plus, I dont like zerg.. Its so complicated since the original, thats why I only played it like twice -_- Terran is alright, but Protoss is the shiz. Warp gates are easier, and thats really all I use lol

[Toshiharu]

I'm terrible, but if you insist it's Sano.nigra

[vietxboy911]

O.K
Waiting on squirt

[Skyve]

O.K
Waiting on squirt

I'm pretty sure you can only do 2vs2 and 1vs1 for now (If u wanted to play with Toshi and Squirt)

[Toshiharu]

Accounts resetted again? I was playing this morning after the loooong downtime and recreated then. Again now..

Also lol I lol'd how to play Starcraft II if you cannot access the registry keys. Launch editor, test map, quit map, and log in.

No.. what i meant was, I'm using his account and since accounts restarted I'm waiting on him to tell me a name so I can make it 4 him; so yah, cant play till then

[Toshiharu]

I was winning a 1vs1 and server shut down. /sad face I was smart and built two more bases inside my main base and float them off to the gold minerals. Genius. Terran is what I play as if you couldn't understand float away.
