I finally gave in to the hype and picked this up yesterday and I am glad I did, this game is epic fun. I wasn't sure if I would like it because I wasn't that big of a fan of the original I was more of AOE fan back then. I only played a few missions so far and its all ready passed Warcraft 3 TFT as one of my favorite RTS games.

Finally finish the campaign, and boy am I GLAD I picked up this game. The story alone is worth getting the game, it's so EPIC :woot: :woot: :woot: !

Now off to play on Hard and Brutal :p .

is it even possible to win on those? I can barely make it on normal :D

I've been playing on HARD and have gotten along OK... I did have to restart one mission though.

Actually I was quite surprised by how easy it is on Normal. Baring one game when I made a big mistake, all of the missions were quite workable. Of course, on Hard and Brutal it will be a different story but I'm confident it's possible.

So, now that you've finished the campaign. Can you comment on Blizzard's statement about it being longer than all of SC1 combined?

I'm not quite finished yet.. but I think I'm getting there.

You won't regret it. On another note, halfway to completing Mar Sara missions on Hard difficulty :p .

I don't know. It's been a while since I've placed the first StarCraft but all I can say is this - if you do concentrate on obtaining all the mission objectives and side missions available, then yes, it can be longer than all the original races campaign combined.

Working on completing all 29 missions on brutal to get the Sarah Kerrigan portrait :(

Damn, if only I could actually play Terran as good as I can play Protoss.

What's that mean?

See here: http://starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/League_(StarCraft_II)

Good luck (Y) .

Ah, so Platinum is the highest regular league you can be placed in. Way to go. (Y)

It is indeed. Thanks! My friend and I are dying to get into the Diamond league. :p We both play Protoss exclusively. Our worst match-ups are PPvTT. A good Terran duo will make use of ghosts (for EMP) and reapers/banshees (for harassing). As a Protoss player, it's very annoying.

If I were to ever join in, I'd be put in whatever league is below "Practice".

Haha! Unfortunately, there is no league below Practice.

Same here but I don't play player vs player in Starcraft I just stick to custom maps and skirmish with the comp.

Why not? I used to be like that when I first started playing Brood War in 2001. I'd always go against the computer and after awhile, it got boring. If you're worried that you'd get owned then practice. There's a whole league dedicated to that. Get the basics down and eventually, you'll be good enough to beat people. Trust me, all you need is a good build order for your race and some good habits like early scouting and walling up.

I am more of a casual player I have played Blizzard games like this since Starcraft 1 just not into the whole microing fighting thing.

Guys, if I have a NA guest pass, can I somehow make that into an EU one? Can you change the region of the trial?

not that im aware of you have to get a new trial pass for that region.

for the rest if you want an extra level in the campaign roll over this.

The secret mission is found on "Media Blitz" mission, by going to south/east of the map. You will find a science facility building. Destroy it and pick up the documents.

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.5 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.5 changelog: Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows (DirectSound and ASIO) Fixes several crashes and memory corruption issues Fixes opening several headerless files at once, which previously dropped all but one Improves batch export by suggesting and remembering the destination folder Fixes accented and non-Latin characters in VST plug-in and compressed-archive file names Adds zstd compression support and updates the archive library Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • I did think about a Echo show once and it would be useful to see what my cameras see. But my brother got one and I changed my mind. Adverts and not really worth the price just to see my cameras. I have a load of dots and a Echo Gen 4, they will do.
    • I asking where you are from or live, because if you don't live in the U.K, why are you so bothered? That is another reason I voted out, E.U and people poking their noses in where they should not be. Sadly we still have it, Trump, and his cronies. Putin as well and no doubt others. It makes no difference what we believe, if we made the right choice or not, we are out. As I said to someone when the news first broke we have voted out, we just need to make the best of it. I have no problems with closer ties to the E.U, we still need to trade. Just don't want to be in their club.
    • So you think I voted out because i am anti-immigrant. I am fed up with those that come over and think that we owe them something. The ones that are at the moment coming over from France where they are already in a safe country because they think and no doubt will get everything chucked at them. While people who were born and bred here get very little. I have nothing against as i have said before those that come here and work. In fact I know full well that our NHS would struggle without them. I do have a problem with those that come over here and try to push their religion and their way of life onto us. My reasons for voting out was because of what the E.U is and is also becoming. I did not agree with Freedom of movement, not because I don't want people over here, but because people need to be checked before being allowed to cross borders and that goes both ways. But my main thing was because the E.U is becoming if not already a united states of Europe. The only reason countries like Poland and Romania joined was because they had no money. When my partner left Poland, she had nothing, Poland had nothing, that is why she left. Wanted to learn something and earn a living. The E.U would have us back according to Michel Barnier. https://www.euronews.com/my-eu...ator-barnier-tells-euronews Why are you so scared to say what country you are in?
