    it's fun! only up to level 13/the end of act 1, though

    When I got this new computer and cranked SC2 up to max everything it was pretty damn cool.

    Then I turned it down since zealots blades become insanely distracting.

    I love how Heart can beat top tier Protoss through nothing but all-ins. It is pretty funny.

  • FrozenzenFrozenzen Registered User regular
    To be fair, in the first game he went head to head with MC in the long game pretty well. I missed the start, so might have involved shenanigans. Dude loves his allins though, but can't really blame anyone for that in the current state of XvP.

    I am struggling terribly with putting early pressure on a zerg

    If I've FFE'd then by the time I want to move a little group to annoy their third, for example, they've just got like 16 zerglings which wreck my shit.

  • MMMigMMMig Registered User regular
    You can simply chrono out and send 3-4 zealots. If for any reason they skipped on roach warren they'll be hard pressed to defend.

    If for some miracle they made enough lings, you made them waste enough mins / larva that it should be OK.

    yah your first bundle o' zealots should distract them handily

    Wow, that Huk vs Parting game 1. Such cute moves by Huk at the end. Surrounding his robo to stop the DT from attacking it, then trapping it between two force fields while he chrono'd obs out.

    He would have won regardless, but that was sooooo cute.

    Silly MC, you gonna need more than a mere 30 supply of units to down a bunker!

  • FrozenzenFrozenzen Registered User regular
    Parting losing to huk as well, I continue to be dissapointed.

  • VariableVariable Mouth Congress Stroke Me Lady FameRegistered User regular
    artosis said parting is saving himself for gsl... I'd consider that very possible and discount any pvt you see from him for sure and maybe even pvp since those are the only two matches he will possibly have left in gsl.

    it doesn't make sense that's he'd lose any pvt except maybe marine king if he was giving it his all. he's the best in the world at it. MAYBE jet lag or something?


    diablo 3 is glorious, everyone in here should try it. if there was a game that could pull me from sc2 it would be that but I think I'll find a balance between them... the competition in sc2 is more rewarding than any RNG drop ever could be. that being said d3 is a dream come true.

    Lol, apparently the raciast undertones are because of this:

    http://www.sc2mapster.com/forums/general/general-chat/29318-nightmare-in-the-labratory/
    I beat it on 3 occasions. However, on day 2 of me playing it - it was...different at the end, as if it were updated.

    (spoiler)

    The end boss this time was Hdolf Aitler, a goliath unit - after killing him, it says he was trying to kill the jews or something weird.

    Allegedly it got patched out, but who knows. -_-

    Oh man, new beastly computer, can't wait to download SC2 and revel in all its max setting glory!

    *watching Blizzard downloader crawl along at 200k per second*

    ...well I guess I can wait another 6 hours, then.

    I know I'm way too late to be of any use but this link can be altered to whatever region / version number you want and is a standalone patch.

    http://attdist.blizzard.com/starcraftII/1.4.2/sc2-1.4.2-enUS.exe

    It is generally faster than what I get from blizzard's downloader, and you don't have to download a bunch of patches which overwrite each other. And it doesn't have to keep going from install - > download - > install etc.
    Just installs a bunch of times in a row.

    I don't know how timely they are putting up new patches though, I tend to use it for when I reinstall the game proper.

    So I just got up on the ladder and tried out my external antennas for my internet. Ping to local server dropped from 94Ms to 58ms. I assume I'll gain the same 30usher ping everywhere. Also doubled my upload and download bandwidth. Now I just have to do the hard job of permanently mounting them

    I can't log in because it says my account doesn't have a D3 licence. It's starting to bug me. I thought it was an open beta?

    I didn't play for perhaps a month.

    Had a lot of fun playing 10 games or so tonight.

    Lots of silly cheese capped with a legitimate macro ZvT, which has always been the most enjoyable match up to watch or play imo.

    Guys, I have a confession.

    I'd like to preface it by saying I am truly sorry for any hurt and offence this may cause.

    I still play roach/hydra/corruptor in PvZ. I kept losing with mutas and this ling upgrade stuff is confusing.

    I hope you can find it in your hearts to forgive me.

    Apparently its a technical issue, not a gameplay issue.

    Some things about the map cause FPS drops for some people. I don't know what it is. It'll probably make a return after they fix it.

  • TannerMSTannerMS "I'm confidence cause I'm zerg!" Registered User regular
    oh

    i guess that probably won't be a difficult fix

    I asked in D3 thread too - Any way to pause the Diablo 3 downloader? I wanna run it overnight instead of sucking up all my bandwidth now while I'm trying to play.

    If it's anything like the other Blizzard downloaders can't you just close it then re-open it later and it'll resume?

    Also, lol australia.
