The StarCraft II thread

This forum is specifically for discussing non-Mafia games
(board, card, video, we're not picky)
.
Playing
such games should happen in the Mish Mash forum, of course.

It was easy, but I liked all the scripted elements. They just needed moar power for the enemy. Respawning heroes would be a good start.

It would be helpful if someone with a page 1 post (e.g., TBM) could update the table with everyone's information, since ReaperCharlie isn't on the site anymore.

yeah finished the campaign earlier today and it was pretty meh. The later missions were pretty fun but it felt a lot easier than the WoL campaign, the primal zerg could have been done better and probably still kept to the lore of the original starcraft stuff (say they break off from the swarm after the overmind dies and evolve as individuals on Zerus, only real thing you'd have to change is getting a replacement for the ancient one) and kerrigan went from dumb lovebird to BETTER GO BE QUEEN OF THE ZERG AGAIN with pretty much no thinking it through or internal conflict.

Don't really recommend it unless you're going to play at least a little multiplayer (which will probably be worth it but I haven't bothered yet) until the price drops a bit.

I wish they'd kept the Zerg relatively wormy/insect-y. The primal zerg in particular look too mammalian.

Kerrigan did have a little bit of hesitation early on, but it went away after
she thought that Raynor had died.

Yeah, I agree. The whole love story subplot that became the mainplot is dumb. I personally ship Kerrigan X Stukov.

BUT it's not true that nothing happens to change Kerrigan's attitude. Her attitude change is linked to a very specific event.

It's tough on Brutal, especially if you're going for the "use artifact only once" trophy.

If you want your ID to be included on the OP and it's currently not included, PM it to me, and I'll add it.
I'll also comb through the pages a little for some to add, but I may miss it if you don't PM it to me.

Hey, you know how SC2 has that mafia custom game which is really nicely set up but full of trolls and people that are really bad at mafia? We should totally get a group and set up a private game or two using it. It would be like a marathon game but all moderated for us. Anyone interested? Personally, I think it would be a pretty awesome idea.

What's the mafia map called? That sounds fun. I looked for it once, but couldn't find it.

I know there's one that's murder in the dark-based, but I didn't understand it back in 2011.

Oh, I know that people abuse it. But the game engine is extremely well designed, you can make practically any setup you want. I was thinking of getting a MS only group together to play a game. Maybe this weekend if we can get 11-15 players online.
