QUOTE(mylife4nerzhul @ Mar 24 2010, 01:32 PM) Very true. RA3 has +9000 crazy ways to win over your opponent. Unlike SC, it is possible in RA3 to make a comeback even after losing most of your units and base. I saw a replay once where this Jap player was left with nothin but a single generator, a shogun battleship and one or two other units, yet managed to come back and destroy his opponent's Allied army and base and winning the game. Good times. I don't find it fair to say that starcraft lacks rare comeback, I've watched plenty of games where good micro can turn a terrible situation into a win. You really have play with people to experience the game.

QUOTE(LostWanderer @ Mar 24 2010, 07:02 PM) i've been watching a lot of SC2 replays (those with the commentators speaking) on youtube, and i must say that despite that i'm not a SC1 fan, i'm really looking forward to play this game, and purchasing an ori version to play online i must say that i'm trying to learn the game mechs from the commentators and see how people build to play the game "better" anyway, i too was looking forward to play sup com 2 (as i've played the ori version of both SC1 and FA)...but i've read a lot of reviews heavily criticizing it until i backed down from buying it...is it really that bad? still, i think i'll need a new cpu and gfx card to run this game (SC2) smoothly, but i can't wait to play another awesome strategy game...as i've skipped CnC4 and sup com 2...XD Its not very very very bad, it just feels a lot simpler (perhaps to some, dumber) and faster. I've played a few games online with my friends copy, games rarely last more than 20 minutes now. This post has been edited by MYNAMEISJASON: Mar 24 2010, 07:45 PM

QUOTE(LostWanderer @ Mar 24 2010, 08:00 PM) i see, thanks for the heads up still, care to explain what does simpler/ dumber means?... i know of the tech tree and such...and yea, people just dislike that a lot...lol...not to mention the plain looking units and their not so attractive colors...XD no more tiers, shields die faster(and you need to research it), artillery is much much weaker, commanders don't 1 hit tier 1 units and doesn't start with overcharge (the utility of overcharge is different here), experimentals come much much faster and die soooo much faster, gunships are also rather powerful here compared to the 1st game since you only get to use the same point/air defense for your race. QUOTE most SC players ive asked never even touched total annilation, homeworld both i consider far superior in gameplay compared to SC. watching flying units act idly to attacks gave me rage! What do you mean by flying units act idly to attacks? This post has been edited by MYNAMEISJASON: Mar 24 2010, 08:34 PM

QUOTE(Cheesenium @ Mar 24 2010, 08:50 PM) True,the games are pretty bland,bu the after sales support is amazing. Like how SC2 planes fight,just stay stationary. Unlike TA where they fly everywhere. but if they fly around like that, how you supposed to micro them accurately

QUOTE(LostWanderer @ Mar 24 2010, 08:58 PM) in Sup Com also they fly everywhere while attacking what...XD...i think there are planes which does stay "somewhat" stationary...but not all i think gunships does stay stationary...doesn't it? They cycle around the target and go pew pew. QUOTE Tell which army has something that actually moves like those units you micro in most RTS. But I thought some planes in TA actually land on the ground

QUOTE(Instant_noodle @ Mar 27 2010, 11:21 AM) but there are still certain criteria we should think of: blizzard games are not quite graphical intense, compared to most other dev; in you lurk thru SC2 posts, you'll know that someone with p4 old radeon card can play the game in lowest (and ugliest??) settings. this act actually secure and widen their incomes as some people (like me) who are reluctant to change pc every 1 or 2 years just to get the game going. Surprisingly sc1 doesn't run well on windows 7 lol
