    All you need is 2 firebats to tank zerg and light them on fire, and let your other units happily blast away. With a medic healing it, a firebat lasts forever.

    i got to the zerg upgrade that has you choose between
    a robot panther with an aoe splash and a super fast flying army carrier

    i just sat there for a while and eventually decided i'm going to have to play through this campaign a couple of times

    at least i already have noticed this normal run is not that hard so next time i might go on hard or even brutal to keep stuff fresh

    so I kind of played some of this
    it installed on my laptop but it looks like low quality AVP2 right now
    it seems like a waste to play it on the laptop when I will be able to play it in all its glory by next week (if not next week I will make it my life goal to take UPS down)

    Yeah, old RTS campaigns are basically like playing the game on skirmish only the enemy has a huge starting advantage to make up for dumb AI and they all turn into mop-up operations after the first 10 minutes.

    I'm glad RTS have evolved beyond that.

    Also the persistent upgrades are really awesome.

    the campaign overhaul actually surprised me a bit, which is why that campaign overview video got me so excited
    I just wish I had more days off and a definite time frame, delivery-wise, for the rest of my computer parts
    might just switch some shifts around to get thursday or friday off and work saturday morning so I can play this more in case UPS gets their shit together

    you just gotta force yourself to never use your mouse on your buttons, even if it slows you down a lot at first.
    You will pick them up quickly like that.

    Played a 3v3 with my roommate and a new guy. He said before the match "I'm kind of scared." and then we got to the bases mid-game and all they had were 10 cannons and 2-3 pylons on them. Woo, placement matches!

    I'm liking this, too.

    The gameplay itself is pretty much what I've played before.

    But, man, the framework for the campaign is pretty much making the game for me.

    Indeed! But some games fail to be so.

    This game is succeeding excellently.

    one thing with campaign

    I wish some parts were full on pre-rendered cinematics and not displayed with in game graphics
    when playing on a shitty computer things can get rather slow and blocky
