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.

    • This is weird. Mythos is more unrestricted compared to Fable. Technically it poses more risk!!
    • This is a great thing, I always have issues with Verizon while inside of certain football stadiums due to the saturation and walls blocking signal so a LOS way to connect would be great. Verizon was supposed to be offering sat data this year but I've not heard a word of it lately. Dude is sending rockets into space in a cheap manner, low waste foot print and has a great product with solar/battery tech. We would be so far behind China right now if not for him and a push to get back into space.
    • illegally? Proof of that? Seems you are posting misinformation or well a pure straight up lie cause there is zero proof of such a thing. But I get it...
