Where did you buy your copy? I've been looking for a place to buy mine but I can only find the LA version.

I bought mine online from battle.net

It defaulted to the Latin America version but I specifically changed it to the North America one (there's like a dropdown box).

Login to your battle.net account and then go to this page:

https://us.battle.net/account/management/get-a-game.html?gameRegion=NA

Make sure the region is set to North America

The campaign is awesome!

Anyway, send me a message containing your character name and code (if it's not on the list yet). You can check your code by logging into Battle.net through SC2 and hovering your cursor over your portrait.

Did you add me yet? I don't know if you did or not.

Yes, I did. You're on my list as "Razorwing".

So glad that I never played the beta, it's been worth it. I'm lovin' the campaign so far :)

Completely unspoiled eh. I would've done that if I had the patience of a Tibetan monk. The campaign is definitely awesome though. I'm so glad Blizzard decided to enrich the stories for each race.

I just couldn't spoil myself playing a beta of one of my favourite games. Looks great on my PC as well, I'm impressed with the graphics.

So the first release is just the Terran's campaign right? Does that mean if we all go for Multiplayer, you can only pick Terran as the race unless if you've bought all 3 race campaigns separately?

Absolutely not.... the expansions are mostly single player updates. You can already play all three races with all the units online.

^ I'm on B.net (on my browser).. I only see Sikh for some reason.. I don't see you.

that's because like I told anaron and everyone earlier in the thread use REALIDs and not bnet local name.

RealIDs show up like a buddy would on your msn/aim/etc. Bnet username/char code is for local use and you only see the person online. Nothing else.

RealID =s email

Why would we want strangers to know our real names?

I have to say Blizzard really screwed up the implementation of Battle.net and Real ID to be honest. The SEA server's are horrid, the custom map scene is dead not a whole great big deal of games, and since we aussie's play on US WoW servers we can't talk to our WoW friends across servers.

Since RealID uses email what's the problem with cross region chat? Since the emails are unique across regions there won't be any collisions. At least they are going to let us Aussie transfer from SEA to the US servers within the next two months (Though at the loss of all our achievments and such and having to download the US Client *sigh*).

A prompt when it asks for your name saying this will be used in multiplayer would have been a good idea as well, i figured it was just locally, but oh well.

Apart from that it's not to bad of a game. A few design issues in the first place that could have been improved on but still.

So is it possible to find my Character Code via the battle.net website not via the game?

Never seen or heard of swoopo before, is it really legit? Some of the stuff on there looks to good to be true.

I played some 1v1's tonight against the computer as Zerg... and man, I suck really bad at zerg. I had trouble beating the computer on normal. It took me about 10 games before I finally beat it. But when I played as terran I beat it on hard without to many issues. Maybe the answer to that problem is to just play terran? The hot keys and units are so much easier to remember than zerg. :rofl:

A few questions about the game.. is there a hot key to cycle through units, like if I have 5 battle cruisers so I can use the special abilities more quickly? Same might apply to structures like barracks? If you can even group buildings together?

I'm sure I'll have more questions later.. :laugh:

    • For a guy who claims to hate Farage and the ignorant, gullible, rightwing racist skinheads sponsored by Putin that his lies represent, you sure are quoting them time and time and time again, mate. I guess you're conveniently ignoring the fact that your country and commonwealth just happened to work much better when it was still part of the E.U.? Denial isn't just a river in Egypt.
    • Do you live in the U.K? Do any of the people here that are against the UK leaving the E.U, live in the U.K? If not then why are you bothered? If you do live here then it is a different thing . Brexit was a good idea, should have done it years before, it was done badly, but the idea was good. You are saying the same thing as remainers do, oh we did what Putin wanted, we listened to the lies and Farage. I hate Farage and never believed most of what he said, certainly did not believe the £350m a week for the NHS. But we did pay a lot of money to the E.U and yes some of it came back, but what is the point of paying it out for only some of it to come back? Get out of the E.U, no money to them and in theory we can use the money to do things in the country. I said in theory, but our governments are a total and complete waste of space. No matter what colour rosette they wear. You and others say it was a mistake and yet the two main parties in the U.K are not looking at rejoining the EU, I wonder why that is? I was not tricked by anyone. Makes no odds now, we are out and have been for 10 years, what we need is a decent government to run the country. All they do is shout at each other like a load of kids and seems to do nothing and make this country more into a police and nanny state. Getting more like China all the time.

    • Yeah... The root of my comment, ostensibly, is how to spin the story via the actual technical merits of the solution! * Decentralized (aka federated) solution with built-in encrypted ephemeral message transport, * Transport via Relays (intermediary servers) with no message archival, * Second configurable pathway are actual email servers (if DNS records are programmed accordingly) via IMAP protocols carriage, * "Chat-over-Email" is the design pattern adopted; it can either leverage full-blown Email Server (must use the INBOX folder) to exchange all received messages/edits/reactions (so be weary of notifications overloads) [best practice is creating a separate email acct used explicitly for federated chat purposes!] or leverage its built-in Relay Server mechanism which actually resides on-device (by default but can be configured otherwise), * By virtue of be a decentralized/federated model, all other intermediary servers who may pass-along messages (while the recipient's final relay/device is inaccessible) cannot snoop on the messages due to the encrypted nature of contents. The intermediaries may, however, analyze the metadata due to the simple fact that routing mechanisms require hints for relay destinations. Unfortunately, whomever is posting about DeltaChat across socials are misleading with "zero metadata" claims -- especially when the Relays (according to their own technical documents) mandate the addition of chat-version metadata and other decorations in order to actually transport any message. -- Based on this summary, I'd prefer if they'd better dual-path message transport (email server add-in, federated relay engine) rather than patch-on email protocols to existing federated social media frameworks. They're frankensteining something rather than extending widely-deployed technology stacks.
