I got Starcraft 2 a little over 4 months ago,but only recently beat the Campaign. Yeah it isn't the first thing I did, I was more interested in playing multiplayer, which of course, when i managed to cheesed my way into Gold, i straight up stop playing ladder. Why? because these guys destroyed me in every sense of the word. I cheesed my way into Gold, when I had never played a actual game of Starcraft. EVER. I do own the first one, but i just played custom maps on it, didn't play the campaign. Now that being last season, I figure I could go down to maybe worse then bronze, play the placement match, just make scvs, loss horribly like planed. BUT NOOOOO, Blizzard amazing placement device of no fun and lolz, stuck me back in Gold, well I'm like 100th on the Ladder and still haven't moved down. Guess I haven't lost enough games yet.
Custom Maps. Oh man there are a lot of them. and DotA is back in the form of SotIS or something like that. I was never a big fan of DotA, could never seem to get my mind around playing, so i could never pick up games like League of Legends or Heroes of Newerth. Probably won't play DotA 2 either. A few games I did quite enjoy, one of them being Squadron Tower Defense and Mineralz. Squadron is unique, in the tower defense as, your towers are not really towers. After you build/upgrade them they sit there like regular towers, but when the round starts, they act like units, and they can't be controlled so you gotta place your "towers" strategically so that your tanking tower can tank and your weak ass damage towers can kill everything in site. Even though I've found early on, get the tank towers, they suck less. The other custom game is Mineralz, a base survival custom map. You got your little probe guy who can destroy rocks that you destroy to make a base. PRO TIP, if you ever play, you want the smallest entrance and dig out rocks to make a base. You mine different minerals that are used to build various structures, such as, walls to keep the bad dudes out, cannons to blast the shit out of the bad dudes, Healers to heal that wall so it doesn't die on you, Generators, to power those cannons and healers, cause the game would be to easy if they didn't need to be powered and there are a few combo towers, a cannon wall, generator wall, and a generator cannon. Yup thats pretty music the basics of that custom map.
NO PICTURE THIS TIME TEEHEE

ReplyDeleteI never know what to think of this game tbh.
ReplyDeleteI've always wanted to play Starcraft 2... Looks fun!
ReplyDeleteThat was a shit idea to get multplayer first man Lol.
ReplyDeleteI could never get into SC2. SC1, on the other hand, now that was a fun game. ALBINOBLACKSHEEP all up in here.
ReplyDeleteHave a lot of friends who love this game. I've never played it, though.
ReplyDeleteI really like the game, but the plot in the single player is kinda dumb. Still a good game tho.
ReplyDeleteSc1 was awesome!!! but this went a little downstream imo
ReplyDeleteI've had friends recommend it, but there's no way I'm paying for a RTS game.
ReplyDeletethere was a time when i thought i was good at this game. but i was no where near. Its still an amazing game, especially with a good graphics card
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info on the game, it deffinitly looks like something I'll have to check out!
ReplyDeleteStarcraft always looks fun but the prospect of getting wailed on constantly by Koreans puts me off.
ReplyDeletebeing own by koreans isnt to much of an issue now, the copys are region locked.
ReplyDeleteI always get owned in SC2
ReplyDeleteI love SC2!
ReplyDeleteStarCraft 2 is really fun. Don't be discouraged, if you are progressing slow take a look at your build orders and mechanics. Practicing what the pros do makes you very competitive.
ReplyDeleteBTW Flux Pavilion is really really really awesome.
Starcraft II is awesome, but the original will always be better in my mind.
