First time won 1 on 1 in multiplayer. Was a mistake cause forgot to select Terran cause i dont even know how other race work. Anyway i did what other zerg always did, keep on harassing. I tried my best to expend as much as possible while at the same time tried to make sure he has no time to expend, believing i might just win if i kept him on the toe and wait till his one mineral dry up. By end game,I had 6 expension pumping out all sort of units to confuse him, more like i had no idea what work best hahahaha. Seeing he did a lot of anti-air to counter my birds, i used up all my monies on those elephant and mow down his base, few battle cruiser spotted but easily counter by my swamp of birds. He call me an animal and that one line made me happy biggrin.gif

posted this in the sc2 faq thread, but just thought i'd put in a word here as well.

i was a bit lazy to drive to the shops to buy physical cd sc2 so i did the sgd109 digital purchase (yes yes i know it's more expensive), cos i already previously downloaded sc2 for ... evaluation purposes (ahem).

but after linking to my bnet acct and etc, wah ... suddenly found out that SEA and US versions of the purchase not inter-compatible with the SEA and US versions of the game. so i can't play, cos bought SEA but only have US installation.

re-downloading from bnet, at the current rate, will take 8 days of full non stop downloading.

any of you kind souls willing to help me out by allowing me to bring a portable hdd over to your place to copy your installation directory so i don't have to wait a week+ to play?

He bought the ori digital version.

But he pre-downloaded the US client instead of the SEA client so now he has to redownload the whole thing which apparently will take him a while.

He is asking if someone can do a physical copy of his client to give him.

Folks, Starcraft 2 could kill your GPU -> Link here

QUOTE

Starcraft II fans beware, your graphics card may get Zerg rushed

StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty, the first game in Blizzard's highly anticipated real-time strategy sequel trilogy launched on Tuesday.  Unfortunately, the blockbuster PC title -- which is expected to sell 10 million copies or more -- had some bumps during its launch.

There were a number of minor bugs, but nothing show stopping at first.  Then the reports of melting GPUs hit.

Among those affected was Adam Biessener of Game Informer whose card melted while he was live blogging about his game experience.  He bemoaned, "Three hours of cursing later, I'm posting this from my wife's laptop because both my graphics card and my work laptop appear to be fried."

The problem appears to be located in the main menu, where an uncapped frame rate maxes out the GPU, in some cases pushing it to overheating and potentially permanent failure.

Blizzard has issued a response on its support site, acknowledging that it was aware of the issue, and offering a quick fix.  The company writes:

(Certain screens make your hardware work pretty hard

Screens that are light on detail may make your system overheat if cooling is overall insufficient. This is because the game has nothing to do so it is primarily just working on drawing the screen very quickly. A temporary workaround is to go to your Documents\StarCraft II Beta\variables.txt file and add these lines:

frameratecapglue=30

frameratecap=60

You may replace these numbers if you want to.)

For eager customers who already lost a graphics card, though, that fix may prove too late.  Blizzard has not announced any plans to replace the lost hardware of victims who experienced the bug.

Many customers are outraged at this.  Writes one victim Lorsaire:

Why was this not addressed already before release, and why were there no breaking news warnings or updates to fix this before people started having damage done to their hardware?  My Nvidia GeForce cost me more than $300 to get a good card that was great for gaming...  Blizzard are you doing anything or have plans to compensate people for the damage you've created?

Of course some of the cards may be covered by manufacturer warranties.  And while it does appear a bug (uncapped framerates) is partially to blame for killing off the cards, a card pushed to the max would generally not die instantly were it not for poorly engineered and/or defective cooling.  It appears that the cards ultimately were done in by the double blow of both a software bug (in SC II) and hardware issues.

The game features intensely addictive multiplayer gaming between three diverse races -- the Zerg, the Protoss, and the Terrans.  It also features a single player campaign in which you play a Terran rebel.  Future titles -- Heart of the Swarm and Legacy of the Void will included Protoss and Zerg campaigns, and possibly deliver new multiplayer features as well.  Just beware the uncapped framerates.


It seems to me they forgot to fix the same bug which also has plagued the beta version.
