Who's playing SC2

Hey guys, Korean here.

Who here in HL2DM Uni will be picking up Starcraft 2 on/near release (July 27!)? I know I'll be zerging stuff up. kekeke~ ^_^

yea i got it reserved... although i didnt get much play in on the beta...
zerg ftw

Yo Charles

I'll be buying SC2 when it comes out. I probably won't play competitive because I am entering my last undergrad semester + LSAT study but I plan on doing 2v2/3v3/4v4 you guys (ninoj,pb,yourself) on and off as terran.

Lets do collosus, stalker + thor, marauder + hydra/baneling in 3v3 pls

actually, in 3v3 you're just going to make command centres and mules and give pb/me money

in return i'll spill creep all over your base

LAWL

I see PB is already having influence on you. You forgot the part besides giving money I spend all my MULE money on scans shortly before you attack and be the sole person to jeopardize myself on gold expansions.

Another korean is here =]

i will buy it only for custom maps, sc2 is like a small game developing tool. you can create a variety of maps like wc3 does (even more!)

btw, theres a rumor that SC2 is free for korean WOW users i hope its true o.o i dont play wow anymore though

Game is quick and fun. Last RTS I played against other ppl was wc2 on lan.

SC2 isn't free if you play in American servers regardless of ethnicity.

Besides, it's only "free" as long as your WoW account is active, so it'd actually be more expensive if you don't intend on playing WoW after four months.

all the previews/trailers i see on tv/web show all kinds of fighting, none of which is in a top-down looking strategy game style. is there more to this game then just the strategy play?

Single player has cut scenes. Some of the campaigns will have 1-10 units under your control. Without the buildings etc.

Game's out tomorrow.

so Tuna_Can just came back to Steam from a 9001 year hiatus and msg'd me about SC2.

Yea Bad Influence msg'd me and said hes gonna get the game too, though hes never played an rts before...
Gonna be fun playing with everyone!
Charles you should create a hl2dm @ sc2 steam group or something...

ok it's released but it seems sc2 is free for limited time in korea, im not sure how long it will be but i guess 1 or 2 week. how about you?

add me : [email protected]

Korea has taught me something.

Play a game enough and they will eventually give it to you.

Installing this sweet baby atm.

So, how the crap do you counter Protoss Stalkers? srs!
They outrange everything tech 1 zerg has... and they overpower and outrange hydras, which are tech 2...
So you go mass mutas which does ok, then u have no more gas and the toss brings in carriers... gg

Speedlings.

You need to learn how to fast gas into speed tech for zerglings against P, for that matter almost any race. Stalkers may outrange speedlings but they cannot keep up with their speed. Transition into muta's, then a roach/hydra build as the game progresses when he feels stalkers are becoming less effective. No offense but if you're any good the game shouldnt reach the point of carriers, corrupters also decimate carriers if you have the appropriate amount.

Burrowed roaches that pop into a stalker ball is also pretty deadly. Spread creep, burrow, plant spine crawlers if your not aggressive, spread creep.

ok thx vals, ill have to try it...
im just used to sc1 builds, not dealing with such a devastating protoss unit so early in the game...
