For twenty minutes. Against an Easy CPU. I probably shouldn't have rushed it and just built up a bigger base so I could use all the units... oh well.


Definitely (not) worth 30 bucks!

Nope but I watched Endyss play WAR for 10 seconds. It's basically a WoW clone.

:D


No, obviously I know the origin of Warcraft's artistic style. But the game just looks like it plays like a reskinned WoW.

I'm going to sob like a bitch when DoW2 comes out, is a hundred times better than SC2 in every way shape and form, and then SC2 owns it sales and review wise because of idiot fanboys that no nothing better than what mainstream garbage is forced down their throat.

Tell me about it. I mean, it's not like Blizzard created a game so wonderfully fun, challenging, and balanced that they made a league out of it. Blizzard is totally just paying off all the journalists to talk about SC2. Not because it's a good game, of course, but because Blizzard is an evil corporation right up there with EA and Microsoft.

I don't know about evil.  They just have a lot of hype to live up to.  The problem I think that they are struggling with is that Koreans pretty much turned the game into a sport....and the pro scene took off on the original game.  Now they have to create a game that caters to the professionals and spectators over in korea...and to a lesser extent USA.  But also is relatively fun for regular people. 
If anybody can do it, it is blizzard....but I am concerned.  Every nifty graphical feature, or innovative thing they have come up with gets thrown out because...."oh that will interfere with the actions per minute for professionals"...
Or "Pros won't be able to see the life bar for this one fuckign mutalisk if we make the death animation too cool...so we are just gonna have them poof into a .2 sec blood spray"

They are trying to be all things to all people...and you can't do it....so it will probably end up being a decent RTS, but nothing very special or envelope pushing.

DOW 2 on the other hand looks much more innovative....cover, destructive environments, squad based improvements,  nice graphical touches.   Just looks like its gonna be more fun to play.  Like when I sit down to starcraft 2 i know i am not gonna have as much fun because some fucktard ranking system everyone is climbing and worried about.

"ooohhh I can't loose or my win ratio will go down....waaah waaah"

Yeah i hate fucking whiny bitches..... I love it when I would get into a 2v2 game and my partner would be like " OMG!  WTF areyou doing....~!!!"
 "  You fucking built marines???  GOD FUCKIGN NOOB MOTHERFUCKER I HATE YOU..."

.....THis would go on for about 20 minutes and completely ruin any fun I might have had...or any fun that person might have had.

and then they would quit out at the slightest wrong thing that happened because thier victory was not 100 percent fucking guaranteed from start to finish.

YOu just wait....these ppl are everywhere in RTS games....If they did it in TF2 for too long we would ban them for being griefers/ haters and general nuisances to players having fun.  But for some reason assholemanship is Sowed, raised, and harvested in RTS fields.   it's common place and bugs me.

this is relevant to my interests.
