Not really a problem with the game overall, just the dumb storyline sort of annoy me.

Also, the awful custom game menu and lack of chatroom.

EA isnt as bad as you think.

At least the storyline for Mass Effect 1 and 2 actually make sense and being a fun, epic game to play. At the same time, Bioware actually made a non linear story based game that actually work without glaring plot holes popping out, unlike SC2's non linear campaign which is a pile of crap, at best. SC2's storyline doesnt even make sense. One minute fighting against Dominion, next minutes, Valarian comes and ,oh, lets fight Kerrigan. Tonnes of undeveloped plot in the whole game. Also, not to forget about the characters are completely awful. None of them are memorable and full of cliche, as they are just generic characters.

Those who spend their money for only the single player portion of the game, probably gonna shoot themselves, as they paid so much money for a game with awful storyline.

What a great story you have, Blizzard.

I really do hope that Blizzard making such an awful story is to lay down foundation for Hearts of the Swarm. Rather than ruining the whole SC Universe with a bad fan fiction.

Just an initial login to activate the game.

please tell me you did enjoy playing C&C 4  brows.gif

C&C4 is bad,even back in the Beta, but does that mean that other EA games is awful?

I enjoyed RA3, ME1, ME2, DA, Burnout: Paradise, BFBC2, Shift, Fifa 2010 and a lot of older EA games. Some of them are really great games.

Just because EA made one gawd awful game (not to forget about the utterly crap new MoH MP, but a very promising SP), EA sucks as a whole? Seriously, you do need to play games made by different developer.

Activision Blizzard isnt perfect too. Blur is a piece of crap on PC, as the controls is almost unusable or the pile of crap Prototype. Using your logic, Activision Blizzard sucks too?

ehh, picky la you. tongue.gif i enjoyed the game, probably cos i didn't think too much. i thought the story was alright overall.

the characters were memorable, but not that good a way. Raynor like the great american hero. Kerrigan like villain. More funny i find is the scientist and mechanic stereotype. Tychus like some bad-ass. I quite like the Tosh character.

love the cinematics though.

Im not being picky, just that Blizzard isnt doing up to expectations with the campaign.

Gameplay-wise, i say it's the best RTS campaign, but story wise, it's awful as they left a lot of things unexplained.

I admit the storyline is actually very good, after reading summaries from those SC novels/manga that explain a lot about what is happening.

Blizzard did set up a good starting point for Hearts of the Swarm at the end of Wings of Liberty, but there are just too little explanation in the game itself that made it feels empty. While the non-linear storyline makes the game feels disjointed at some point, as if the campaign has multiple plot running simultaneously.

Kerrigan just feel like a typical villain that shots fireballs,unlike the way she way portrayed in Brood War where she is a cold, heartless b****.

Would be great if they actually have an in-game encyclopedia like what Witcher, Mass Effect 1/2 or Dragon Age have, since game is bad at story telling,generally. Words always do better at story telling. The video during installation did really well, but it still miss out a lot like UED in Brood War.

I think that works in some way like you are playing a campaign half way and dc, it does save your achievements.

Other than that, it doesnt work.
