Amen.
Well, except not for the installation half.

I'd just like a physical copy of sc2 since its such an awesome game. But looking back on it I haven't really needed physical copies. Emails, contacting companies about your online user accounts, text files, etc haven't failed as backups for my cd keys

I like having physical copies for some reason. I don't mind not having them, but I'd prefer to.

An all rounder preferably. I do a mixture of things. A bit of gaming (I've never cared for graphics quality though), a bit of various sorts of design, some photoshop. Lots of web browsing. Yeah that's about all I do.

That's pretty cool, I like the idea, but it is really too easy, I'm not sure if the game got progressively harder as I gained more meters. Also some faint tank tracks would be cool, I thought they were floating to start with :o

For every placement match I built a bunch of command centres and hid them, so I'd get into the lowest league and now I play like an asshat and win D:

you are the bane of the starcraft beta. Haven't seen any good players from bronze yet, but I do keep getting matched up against lame silvers who cheese my ass to victory. Cannon rushes, flying command centers to high yield as soon as the game starts, banshee rushes. ive seen it all. actually i think im losing to silvers more often to golds (which is my league atm), because at least they play like gentlemen.

the cheesiest thing ive ever done is go for fast dark templars, it works quite awesome against warpgate-greedy protoss. but i really dislike those games; id much rather see a nice quality macro game where players actually need to multi-task, or at least some nice micro in early attacks. there's not really a lot of micro to be doing on a cannon rush rofl

lol that's fucking gay. i dont get how he didnt attack for 40mins, that's retarded. in less than 30mins i'd be 200/200 supply locked on fucking colossi or something if the opponent doesn't do any harass.

i mean, seriously, just get off the bronze league and start playing the real game

also, add me. it's the last day of the beta and im on a laptop, but we should still try a game or two.

I found my old copy of Unreal Tournament today, and I was surprised at the number of people still playing. The game's from what, like 1999? I'm amazed.

UT Classic is the best in the series, so that might explain it. It's fun to mod, too.

There should be a way to win..and if not, give some kind of reward for hitting the enemy tank. Cuz if damaging does nothing then there's no point to shoot really..cept for that one medal?

Hitting the enemy tank brings its speed down :) Just added it to the author's comment.

And yeah if I wanted to stay true to the original animation there should of course be a way to win, but you know -- take it for what it is ;)

That's cool, I'm all down for distance games and what not. Just didn't get the shooting thing. That works then :D

What makes you say that? All of them are essentially the same game. Same weapons, same physics (except double jump), same game modes. The only difference is the maps.

Citric: i added you. everyone sucks terribly at first, it just takes a really long time to learn the game. I played like 15-20 custom games against AI's just to learn the units, abilities, and builds before I even played my first placement match. At the end of the day you'll see that starcraft is not about being a genius tactician like Ender, but simply knowing to manage your production; micro'ing your units isn't even that important if you at least know how to macro. You can become a great starcraft player only by practicing and doing the most standard and expected builds.

Err... That's my point. The other games added nothing new aside from useless vehicle combat and the first was the most fun to play in my opinion.

The thing I don't like about the new games is the over-the-top, Gears-of-War-esque characters, as well as the vehicles. The games are still pretty fun to play, but I enjoyed UT99 the best out of all of them.

I'd have to say that UT3 is my second favorite. It seems to be more of a return to the first game.

Also, does anyone remember Unreal Gold?

stop saying "remember"

you were like 3 years old when those games came out

UT99 is probably one of the first games I ever played besides rayman and lomax

At 7/18/10 07:43 AM, Toast wrote: you were like 3 years old when those games came out

I was like five years old when I played the Unreal games, the first games I ever experienced. I played the entirety of each of those games back then, and you have no right to say I don't remember them.

Ad Revenue?
I saw that the NG ad system shares revenue gained from ads equally between authors, so any co-authors will automatically be credited? Is this true?

No, the person who submits the flash chooses how to divide the earnings up.

ok then thanks, thought it would be cool, especially for collabs, so users get a little extra in their NG wallet, may entice more people to join up.

Mis Primeros Videojuegos

UT 99 was probably the first pc game I played religiously. RPG Maker, I think I got before that, and I got Starcraft around the same time. My first games were Super Mario World and Starfox on SNES followed by Link's awakening on Game Boy and Startropics and Legacy of the Wizard on NES (grandma had an NES).

I never could play online with Unreal, I donno why, but I do remember hogging the phone line with dial-up for hours on end playing Starcraft

That's awesome. You're actually the only person I know that I know played starcraft. Were you any good at it? What about sc2? I don't know if the fact that you live in the US makes a difference (probably only if we were to play league games?), but if you're up for it im looking for a practice buddy. There's not gonna be any time left in the beta, but add me anyway and I'll play with you on the 27th.

I was preteen when I played starcraft before I started playing warcraft 3, so I wasn't THAT good. I remember playing mostly zero clutter and fastest map possible maps because I wasn't good at macro and couldn't expand etc. Having huge ridiculous bases got addicting and so did the carrier rushes haha. I occasionally played normal games and I was alright.

Yeah sure I'll add you. I'm alright for not having played the game more than a month. And you're right about the standard builds. I'm pretty sure as long as you keep up to date on the latest pro replays, you can be decent at RTS's.

The first game I played was Mega Bomberman on the Sega. The first computer game I played would probably have to be Speedy Eggbert.

I.. Played... the SHIT out of SC1. Mostly on Dial up, then made the transition and was one of the first people in the area to have CableOMG!

For probably 3 years straight, it was SC, D2, Rogue Spear and whatever Heroes of Might and Magic was popular then (2-3 I think) from dusk til dawn.
