    It's a great game (with a few flaws). Nearly finished the SP missions and I must say they've done it justice with the storyline. Reminds me of the original *Half Life where a game was more than just graphics.

    I also have 1 spare trial key if anyone wants one.


    edit: *clarification on the storyline bit, just good to see a decent storyline in a game again, not trying to comparing SC2 to HL

    It's a great story line and having options/paths to chose is a lot of fun I think :)

    Well have got up to the lava mission & have to say SC2 is every bit as good as the original game, the story line is brilliant & more so than the original as you have choices unlike the original. I'll have to have a go at the MP game with some of you lot & see how I go ;)

    DOH!!, well, I was in such a hurry when I was installing SC2, I didn't pay enough attention to the little text box about carefully choosing your characters name. Consequently I was mucking around and thought I'd keep mayday for MP, but you can't change your name once entered. Now that sucks big ones. :(

    I'll post it up in the other thread. For anyone else installing SC2, choose your character name carefully.

    bit of bitchin' on the SC2 forums about it too

    Can't you change it if you go into your battle.net account? My account uses my email, but also has my christian name with it , but my game name is Jello.

    No you can't Jello, the battlenet details are just for the account, in game name is set up when you create the account in game.

    I had a couple of MP games last night with Mayday & was nuked, litterally ;). Fucking ghosts lmao. First round we were both Terran & I got over run real quick, lesson one, lots of SCV's are the priority to get started ;).

    Second round I choose random & got Zerg, well this should be interesting :). Got to making heaps of gathers & built up a heap of troops & thought "Ahhh relatively safe", how wrong was I? had anti air & ground defenses in place & then I get a message "Nuclear launch detected" OH CRAP!!!

    Well 5 launches later, I had nothing left but some structures :(. I hadn't worked out how to detect those damn Ghosts with Zerg, in fact I didn't know FA about how to use the zerg lol.

    It was however great fun & can't wait to get revenge on me old mate Mayday ;) You've thrown down the gauntlet mate ;)

    ROFL, I'm sure you'll extract your revenge after a few more battles. :) Gotta love them nukes :confused:kull: and the ghosts. :ninja:
    I think had you stuck with Terran for the second game you'd have done better. I only play Terran atm because I at least know what the units do. The other 2 races are quite foreign to me. :alien: Thanks for the games mate.

    Thanks to RnR and Major for last nights games as well. Got our butts handed to us in very short order for the first 2 games (AI was normal ffs). So we dumbed down the AI and then started winning. Damn noobs we are. :D
