Blizzard: Starcraft 2

[Sir Galahad®]

Well I think they did that to prevent pirated copies from enjoying a network game... although I think the Korean version has a LAN protocol (or maybe those were just rumors)

@Sir Galahad®

 

Yes. I believe Koreans have the "Professional Edition" wherein they are allowed to have a LAN connection. Can't blame Blizzard for that.. they can really make a lot of money from Korean fanatics. Even Korean Air has its planes printed with a StarCraft II picture.

 

@Intense Lover

 

Patch everytime you play? I only patched 2 or 3 times since I bought it, as well as with my friends. And Battle.Net is always up aside from maintenance periods. Did they have a server maintenance this morning?

 

Yeah its somehow inconvenient not having an internet connection to play StarCraft II. However, you can always buy (or borrow from friends) one of the prepaid net services (Smart Bro, Globe Tattoo, etc.) to play the game. It's just an initial authentication. And buying StarCraft II means spending 3,500PHP... likely that you can also afford an internet connection.

Ah really?! O_o

 

Oh...wow then I guess there's something wrong with the version at the Cafe I rent at Fail eh...keeps on patching but I can't play. No maps show up when I click on multi-player and what not. Also there's a message that keeps on popping up: "Your version of Starcraft 2 is not authentic. Please purchase the original version online blah blah blah blah...." -,....,-

BTW for the DotA fans out there.. heres the SC2 version called Storm of The Imperial Sanctum

Thou from what I heard its still a bit unbalance compared to HoN.

 

just my 2 cents

I was just wondering. Why are there no protoss or zerg missions? That leviathan that the zerg has is difficult to k*ll. 4 battlecruisers at full upgrade ain't enough.

There are a few protoss missions (when Raynor views the memory crystal)

 

The Zerg Missions will come at the next Expansion - Starcraft 2 - Heart of the Swarm

 

The Protoss Missions will be released with Starcraft 2 - Legacy of the Void

Thanks dude. I just remembered I played the Zeratul mission. Have you tried using specters coz I chose the ghosts instead of the specters? Do they also have nuclear bomb capability?

Both can still use nuclear strike

 

Ghosts have more HP - 100, Spectres have 80 HP

Spectres deal more Damage - 15 (+5 against armored) vs. Ghosts who has 10 (+10 against light)

 

Spectres have Ultrasonic Pulse and Psionic Lash

Ghosts have Snipe and EMP Shot

 

I like Tosh's mind blast attack though

I didn't get to use Tosh coz I chose Nova over him. Maybe after I finish the missions, I'll revisit that stage which you choose between Tosh and Nova and I'll choose Tosh. I just had to help a damsel in distress. Hehe. I liked the cinematic where it showed Kerrigan being overrun by the zerg.

Pity that the Protoss Campaign will come last :/

 

Next from the Terran I love the Protoss. Guess I'm stuck with the "pests" when the next expansion comes -.-

[Guest hastati]

If ever there will be Starcraft the Movie, I'd choose Russel Crowe to play Raynor, magkamukha kasi. Hehe.
