Patch 1.3.0 is now live (with new league icons).

Also, Blizzard decided to remove the Khaydarin Amulet upgrade for High Templars. There goes +25 starting energy. :(

Yeah that upgrade I used a lot!

I still suck at multi-player it just seams no matter what around the time i get my first units ready to go they send an army and wipe me out :(

remember your build orders, shortcut keys and micro/macro well and you will be fine.

if they rush you and you only have 1 or 2 units, send all your workers to defend.

IMO the best race to learn with is Terran, as you can at least learn how to wall in and build some troops before getting wiped out. Plus you can mass their basic unit (marines) and still have a chance :laugh:

One of the things that a lot of new players don't get is that unlike other RTS games, you need to mass up your production facilities. It's common for everyone to begin with at least 2 barracks, 3 gateways, or if they're Zerg, to quickly expand to two hatcheries with queens.

Considering the campaign is primarily Terran-only, I'd say it's the easiest race for new players. I play as Protoss exclusively. I don't like Terrans and I can't do well as Zerg if my life depended on it.

Anyway, I've added a poll. What race do you play as the most?

It was already there. :ninja:

Speaking of this game, anyone want to play Left 2 Die? I played it during the beta phases and now it's much, much harder.

That was one of the four mods at BlizzCon 2010 right? The name is really familiar. I haven't tried it or any non-standard map.

So I'm curious to know, I haven't played much and I don't see the reasoning behind it. Why is it that only terran siege tanks seem to do friendly fire? Out of all the units in the game that have splash damage it only seems like the tanks have friendly fire so I don't get it.

Am I wrong that only they have friendly fire or am I missing something?

StarCraft II adds three official custom maps

Blizzard has now officially released three of its promised four new free custom maps for StarCraft II players.

sc2.jpg

The three maps, originally announced and shown to the public at Blizzcon last year, have been in beta testing for a few months, but are now available for all to download, complete with new achievements for players to unlock and display proudly. The achievements for each map are listed on the game?s official web site.

The custom maps include StarJewled, based loosely on PopCap?s puzzle game Bejeweled. Another is Left 2 Die with players building defense structures to keep out Zerg at night. The third map is Aiur Chef, where players collect different components and outrace others to make meals. Really.

I haven't tried StarJeweled or Aiur Chef but Left 2 Die is pretty good. (Y)

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.5

      By Copernic · Posted

      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
    • Limited Prime Day deal sees Amazon Echo Show 11 is at its lowest price yet

      By ad47uk · Posted

      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.
    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      By ad47uk · Posted

      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?
