Getting a new computer mostly for Starcraft 2, Poker, and whatever other random new games come out.

thats what I have picked out, prices are in Canadian. I have a 1 TB network drive so im gonna use the ssd as the only hard drive on my...
starcraft!
its being included in WCG again this year just like always. Graphics dont matter, starcraft is great because of how competitive it is. Most new RTS's automate and dumb down everything for the user which eliminates skill advantage.
PGT and WGT are both 3rd party ladders where lots of good players play, but neither of them are currently running. The two main english community websites are www.teamliquid.net and www.gosugamers.net
be warned though you will probably get crushed if you try and play a very good player.
being ranked the 76th best starcraft player in the country, NOT easy to accomplish.
also winning 3-4 halo and starcraft tournaments for fairly good prize money.
I used to play 40k alot but I have no time now that im in university. Whenever I do, you have to pack up all your guys and go somewhere, then spend up to an hour setting up and building armies before the game can start. Also, most games consist of setting up on opposite sides of a board and...
Starcraft is way harder to play well than TA, thats why theres so many tournaments for it.
i play starcraft tons on ranked ladders and tournaments and such.
you dont actually have to go to the 8th floor, you can kill the scientist as he is in the elevator.
you can also just stay in the elevator as he goes to his room. Also if you go to the balconies on 7th floor theres a place to climb up
Im trying to install windows Xp to my new computer but i dont have a floppy drive for it. Is there anyway i can do this?
I remember hearing some stuff about slipstreaming stuff, or maybe xp pro / 64 pit edition have the sata drivers built in?
thx a lot.
a lot of these problems in warcraft 3 can be solved by simpy playing 1v1's or arranged teams. ALthough i dont play warcraft 3 myself ( starcraft > war3), its common knowledge that only noobs play random team. Almost all good players and tournaments play 1v1 matches and occasionally 2v2, just...
is there any cheaper way of fixing the scratches? Only my halo disc is damaged and i could buy a new one for that price.
There is a circular scratch that goes all around the disc, its still plalyable but it freezes for a while in the menus and wont load certain maps.
thanks
warcraft is so-so but starcraft is a lot better imo and i play that way more. Warcraft is like a dumbed down version of starcraft with easier micro and no macro.
well i never played jagged alliance but you might wanna check out silent storm and the expansion pack. Its a great game and i heard it was just like jagged alliance
Yeah starcraft is awesome i play it daily. If anyone wants to play just reply here with your username / gateway. BUT if you play noob money maps dont even bother.
and to hatebot: watch 100 top zerg replays and less than 5 will be ling rushes, most of which only slow down the opponent, not...
but not as much skill as RTS/FPS. I used to play diablo 2 before, and the "skill" in that game consisted of being rushed to all the most efficient places, placing skill points in preplanned categories (all calculated to get the best build possible), then holding down right click to cast spells...
dont forget about the games that take even more skill than both, RTS. (fps is 2nd most skill required). I mean, havent you seen pure pwnage?
name one game that takes more skill than starcraft
yeah all the races are extremely balanced.
Im practicing starcraft right now because im going into the WCG regional qualifier for it on friday, hopefully ill win the $25000+ prize money
see thats what im talking about. You were obviously never any good at the game if you think a ling rush will win you the game, when in fact they almost never work against good players, and once you defend the rush you are ahead in economy.
You can use any tactic you want in starcraft as well.
you people are crazy, total ahnillation had nothing on starcraft, and this one doesnt look like it will either.
starcraft is the best rts out right now, and most of the people that dont like it only say that because its too hard for them and they suck at it.
well a good way is to go in gang wars, or basically anythign where you shoot a lot. After the first couple misions where you shoot out of a car i was maxed on ak and smg because you just hold down the trigger and your skill keeps going up.
as for the duel wielding, you can only do it with...
yeah no kidding it sounds easy but its not.
Im a currently practicing for this years starcraft wcg and get in around 2 hours/day playing but im still only top 100 in canada.
