I just played some of the Protoss missions and damn, they are fun.

The last protoss mission is epic :punk:

[Prosidius]

Finally beat the mission where you collect 8000 minerals. Easy mission but took forever, 1 and a half hours.

I thought there was only one mission.. :s.. it's too late now (I think.. I'm on

Char

already).

I keep getting win32.sys errors playing this. Anyone know of a fix?

so zerg players, whats your initial build orders?

10 - Ovie

10 - Extractor

10 - Cancel extractor (this is called Overpooling)

14 - Spawning Pool

14 - Extractor

16 - Ovie

As soon as extractor is done, move three drones to it

16 - Queen -> Inject Larvae big time

18 - Zerglings

Get ling speed as soon as you have 100 gas.

From then on it varies. I often move the gas drones back to mineral once I have ling speed, mass some lings and take map control with that. Then I evaluate what my opponent is doing and I plan the rest accordingly.

I'm not satisfied with it though, because the 16 Ovie arrives a bit late and I have a larva sitting there for a few seconds. Should probably be built at 15 instead.

Against Very Hard computer, just keep massing as many lings as possible (you need another hatchery + queen though - at some point you have too much money so it's a wise investement). Wait for initial push, destroy it easily (they are not expecting that many lings). Counter-attack asap. GG. Tested vs Terran, Protoss and Zerg on various 1vs1 maps, 100% win. Might not work on larger maps.

I might sound like I know what I'm doing but I'm really not. Against any semi-competent player I get crushed. I still don't even know all the tech trees by heart including zerg.

Are you on brutal? Took me 30 mins on normal.

I have to say, the mission "Outbreak" freaking sucks. I spent a GOOD portion of my 7 hour "demo" playing it.

I nearly lost all my troops, floated my base up out of range, and ran around with medics with the advanced heals.

It was an army of about 25 people, and two Hammer units.

It was CRAZY difficult, even on normal for me, because as I said, the whole thing just nearly decimated me.

I really, really wish I had money for this. :(

[kaffra]

^did you attack at night time?

I just had a bunch of bunkers with firebats and marines.. then I had one or 2 of the flame turrets with them. Also had an scv there as well. One of the easiest missions I'd say. Now, I'm still trying to figure out 'All In'... any tips anyone? I keep getting swarmed

[Minifig]

No, not until nearly the end. The end was when I did the floating base 25 man technique.

I completed it by building lots and lots of fully upgraded siege tanks combined with bunkers filled with marines and some scvs around to repair them. The flame turrets also work great. :)

Are we talking about the 3rd(?) mission where the game introduces you to bunkers that you have to defend for 20 minutes? with the massive zerg attack around 1:30 left?

No I think they are talking about the mission where you destroy a infested city with fast night/day cycles because you don't get siege tanks in the bunker intro level.

Nope, it's not.. I don't want to spoil anything else.. so I don't want to say too much.

[M4nB3arP1g]

Great then that mission sounds awesome I am not very far into the campaign yet maybe 5-6 missions.

[andrew_f]

Does anybody know if this runs (and if so, how well) on a Macbook 5,1?

[Knightwolf20024]

[andrew_f]

NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256MB

[Knightwolf20024]

[andrew_f]

It's a shame they don't have a demo really. Thanks for the help :)
