Im not intrested in SCII Cause from what ive read, you only get 1 Campeign when you buy the game, then you get the others in expansions.

I just facepalmed so I hard I cracked my skull.

You only buy for the campaign? Most of the fun is killing people online...

@Contrary: i use zergs to and sometimes terran.

The best part of SCII is undoubtedly going to be custom maps online.
That was definitely the best feature of Warcraft III and this map editor is supposed to be even MORE powerful.

custom is awesome: phantom BGH is where it's at.
one player is secretly chosen as the phantom and receives more minerals and gas, he must kill every one else.
all players accuse each other of being the phantom and have a cold war 'till someone looks like he [has too many units/ too many structures/the high yield minerals/a building too close to their base/just looked at you funny] then they are accused of being the phantom and attacked. EVERYONE BANDWAGONS they either unally the attacker or the suspect then proceed to rape their base 'till there is nothing left. Then everyone find out that he wasn't the phantom and it goes on.

Is the A.I. retarded still? If it is, I will not get it.
STUPID SPACE MARINES AND THEIR SHORTCUTS

The AI was never retarded, the AI was a MONSTER.
It didn't even pretend that it was obeying fog of war, knew automatically where all the units and minerals were and what they were doing and micromanaged with inhuman speed.
Even worse, in a free for all game the computer opponents would TEAM UP even if you disabled teams. They would all just gang up on the human players, their units would not even attack eachother automatically as they woudl if two human players tried it.

In SCII the AI is a lot fairer, and it says "GG" whenever you beat it :V

Well he could be saying the AI was retarded because they were too overpowered.

I don't know about you guys, but 1 on 1 the AI sucked ♥♥♥♥. All you needed to do was scout to see whether they fast expanded or not. If they fast expoed, rush that ♥♥♥♥. If, not put a couple towers and a couple guys (or wall off a bit if you're not zerg).

Actually, aside from playing normally, it was so easy to mess up the AI with dumb things. I remember that running a really early worker in to scout will cause them to throw up towers randomly, more and more with how long you stayed. You could make them waste hundreds of minerals on towers, leaving you an easy time teching and expanding.

Also, contains were really easy, especially with lurkers. They just ran back and forth getting hit, even if they had enough to run clean through. And they don't tech switch to counter or even tech up very well.

I don't know what you're talking about, the AI microed terribly. It never Dragoon danced or did very good Zergling runbys or surrounds. In fact it never did any surrounds or kiting or retreated weakened units.

In any case I think sniper is talking about pathfinding, which is much better now.

no, in demo the AI was terrible, and yes, it was the pathfinding that was screwed up to me.
