This could get pretty messy.
Only one person can get on at a time and if blizzard notices too many different IPs trying to connect, they might just ban the account outright.

I never understand these threads.
Who the hell complains about having to log onto a game? If you're able to spend your free time on these forums, I'm sure you can play games that require some online login.


The only ones that are really problematic are ones like Assassin's Creed II that need a CONSTANT internet connection. And it seems this isn't the case for SC2

Maybe it's just me but that was always annoying as hell...
If that's your response, you should play some other game like Supreme Commander. Starcraft is designed from the ground up to give players much more control and reduce automation. Which is why even small things like "multiple building selection" and "auto worker mining" is debated so much.
Sup Com on the other hand is all about automating a giant army and making everything work in a simple way.


Or I can play SC2 and be perfectly happy...


If you like it so much, I could tell you to go back to playing SC1. ;)


It's you who's saying it's annoying though and it's me who's perfectly happy AND TELLING YOU that they won't change it because that's how SC2 is like.

I think that the major problem with Terran is that they get way too many minerals with the MULE and not enough gas.  I think they should increase the mineral cost and reduce the vespian gas cost for Terran.
If you're gas low, try to get an expansion up with only gas to start. Also make some marines/hellion with reactors.
Zerg had this problem in SC1 as well.

Playing against the Cheating AI is definitely not the same as playing against a real person.
Same goes for the older cheating AI people made for broodwar.


Just an example


10 Rax scout
11 Gas
11 Comsat
11 Supply


When my scout gets to the enemy protoss or terran base at around 12/13, they somehow already have 3 gateways or 2 barracks up which is just insane.


Forces you to play defensive or somehow mess up the enemy workers by glitching the AI a bit. Either way, it's nothing like playing a real person who adapts. The computer can just manage to win by sheer numbers building faster than you if you don't do some sort of wall-in.

Have you done any of the AI mods cause that could possibly (though not very likely) be screwing things up.


I can watch older games when I switch the AI back to the original. It's just official replays from teamliquid after patch 2 are not watchable.


Watching the pro replays is much more beneficial for me than playing against the AI.

Not enough Pylons / Official replays after Patch 2?
March 01, 2010, 12:24:18 AM
Is there any way to play "patch 2" replays from people who are in the real beta?


I'm getting the "need to download files" error when trying to play replays made after the current patch. Seems like it needs some more cached files.
