General Discussion / Re: SC2 Patch #3 is out
March 06, 2010, 11:39:14 PM
Hey thanks, man!

I already had patch 2, but that's fine.

Sensor Tower *don't* sense cloaked units? I could have sworn the description said they did.

Is there a place to download the patch without using the SCII launcher? I'm behind a proxy, and so I need to tunnel to get the patch, and using a 64kb/s tunnel to get it is not attractive.

PvP mess zealots can be very powerful, as I saw some replays that single base no gas build, and zealots only can be powerful.
PvZ you need some deference and fast tech build, also expand at beginning is considerable, fast tech for high templar, psi storm is very strong vs Zerg.
PvT zealots + stalker with charge and blink researched.

Psi storm is crap in starcraft 2 unless you corner the oponent's army and block its exit since psi storm now seems to have a little cast delay. I suggest pairing up zealots with charge,stalkers and Colossus. They seem to pown zerg.

What are you smoking? You just have to know how to use it. I notice no casting delay, and it works really well.

For one, have a Mothership drop a vortex, then launch X number of psi storms as it expires.

For another, just have the High Templars blanket an area with Psi Storms.

I love Psi Storm! It's not crap. :(

Are you sure? It says in the description as long as it is attacking the same target.

Rain, you're incorrect. Merely because I can get onto the forums does not mean I have the capability to access Battle.net. Those of us who like to play games like this but are unfortunate enough to be behind proxies should not be punished merely because they are once again attempting to keep the pirates out. SC1 had plenty of private servers, the same thing will happen with SCII.

Since this is the case, don't have us rent the game so that we have to connect to their damn servers in order to play with friends. It makes no sense, adds hassle to the game, and keeps us from having LAN parties unless we also have a wireless router in the room. We like to have them in strange places sometimes. With SC1 we didn't need to be connected to the internet, merely to a network.

General Discussion / Strategy and a couple glitches
March 02, 2010, 03:49:34 PM
Okay, glitches first.

I am noticing, using Starcrack 5.5 if that matters, (which is way better than any of the other AI, atm), and the latest starcraft patch, that when I am attacking my enemy, the Void Rays do not lose their attack when swapping from one target to another. As long as they are in constant combat, their void ray will start out doing just as much damage as it was against the last unit. I don't think this is intentional, it makes them rather too powerful.

Second glitch, is if the Mothership is hovering around the Vortex after she drops it, then enemy units coming out of the vortex will be cloaked for a short period of time.

The strategy that I was investigating was the best way to use Psionic Storm. I don't know if this is the best way, but it works very well.

Have your Mothership use Vortex on a large group of Zerg/Terran/Protoss. As it expires, have X number of High Templar cast Psionic Storm around that area, and watch the bloodbath.

Might I suggest playing some other game if SCII against the AI is that boring?

I'm having the same problem, and I also have AVG. How exactly did you add an exe file to the exceptions in Res Shield?

The dl link goes to a forum. I can't seem to find a link that actually lets me dl lazylaunch2.0.

Can anyone give me a direct link?

General Discussion / Re: Whats your Favorite SC2 unit?
February 27, 2010, 09:53:05 PM
I'm surprised no one has mentioned the Void Ray.

A group of 5 or 6 can lay waste to a base in a very short time, and they can attack air and ground. Doesn't hurt that they look pretty cool.

Yeah I just finally got them. Guess it was just a hell of a run of bad luck. :P

Are you sure? I've started about a dozen games, and neither I nor the computer has ever had Protoss. That's a hell of a stretch.
