The mission with the Hyperion in space is one of the coolest things I've done in an RTS.

Holy shit that was fun.

i've just about had it with those new mines terran gets. they are cloaked, do splash, AND can hit air? a bit much. those things are owning me.

i play zerg exclusively, and i'm having trouble integrating the new units into my gameplay, although they do seem to fill important voids in what the army can do. i'm only a high gold player, but come to think of it, i haven't seen many zerg players using the new units.

Vipers are great, you should be using.

Swarm hosts are good but more situational.

Going hydra to hydra viper and then adding ultras works well. Vipers counter what counters hydras so it makes that composition work later into the game.

^been using the swarm hosts more. you're definitely right about them being situational, they are great when you want to get your opponent to engage you in the open.

Also one of those things where having 2-3 of them sucks, but having 10-12 becomes very hard to stop once you get to that critical mass.

^true

anyone else even playing the expansion? like, dislike?

I played through the campaign. It was fun but the story was dumb. No desire to play multiplayer though. Had my run up to high masters back in the day but I'm pretty over it now. Would rather play LoL.

Haven't had a ton of time to play, unfortunately.

finally got around to beating the HOTS campaign. It just didnt feel as exciting as the WoL campaign was and felt like they just recycled some of the missions. I think i went roach/hydra nearly every single mission.

^ true. but i did like how they did the boss fights. i felt like i was playing diablo3.

anyone still playing this game? i've been enjoying the new expansion.

it doesn't appear that this game will the enduring popularity of the first version. i suppose there's too much competition these days for that to really be feasible, but blizzard's typical sluggishness with releasing the expansions certainly didn't help, imo. 5 years is way too late to settle the mechanics and units of a game, and there's probably still a lot more big balance changes to come.

I assume the protoss expansion came out recently?

But yeah I kinda lost interest.

3/6/2016 9:28:21 PM

^^^what's the main competition?

3/8/2016 7:48:31 PM

Mainly mobas. LoL, Dota2, etc. They're not direct competitors but most of the player base and attention has shifted over to those kinds of games from SC2.
