what the fuck

gook

at least it's not a tranny thread

>free

back in my day we called it bnet not blizzard app

why there are two sc2 threads? the other thread is really autistic and mods dont do anything to remove.

Why is this happening? I am playing expansion multiplayer not standard. I ported all my maps from my old starcraft folder.

How is this shit laggier than when it was 20 years later?

Mepтвый тpeд мepтвoй игpы.

>when the original starcraft is now more popular than SC2

Because Actiblizzard

Is Starcraft 2 officially dead? How's it doing in Korea/West these days?

> $40 Expansions

That's what killed it.

Is there an ingame channel?

make one

> Use Map Settings

> All these kooky games

How do I know what to play?

This general is for people who play the games only

/scv/ get out

I played the tutorial mission for Terran today so I'm gonna blog about my trip to the Secretary of State office

any koreans want to 1v1?

Forgot pic

*pulls at corners of my eyes* sure lol

In ZvT what are you supposed to have as Z to counter a mid game tank/vessel/bio push?

I keep losing ZvT cause I can't break their front early and then they push out and I lose. I've been trying ling/hydra/lurker and just get run over.

read the guides on tl, fucking moron

calm the fuck down hotbigshit

eat your own dick slutboy fuckshitter

How many sunkens are you making?

What timing are you getting hit?

don't get hydras except to make lurkers against bio. use them to slow the terran down until you get defilers for dark swarm. and then tech into ultras.

so is this the capshitter general or what

when sickziis mommy puts on cherry chapstick after polishing off his omorod to some nice cartoon girls then kisses his hot red cherry...

go to channel /v/ on us east for games

I've been playing the original game (free version), are scvs supposed to stand still next to mineral when you set the rally point of a command center to a mineral patch?

yes they dont automine in bw you have to manually select them and click on the patches to make them

Is 150 apm enough to play BW? Sometimes I finish a game closer to 200 but that's usually shorter games (

do you really want scv unleashed onto the rest of the site

it should be enough to do alright.

>Remember Temple siege
>go through the process of port forwarding
>20 minutes one fucker joins and leaves
>give up and play league, but not before changing the VA to japanese (except syndra)

I fucking want to love this
I really do

ahh, very interesting, very interesting

Havent played since early HotS and my friends just got LotV and want me to play
What are the new op units/strats?
What do I mass in multiplayer matches to be hella op

depends what race you play
zerg: drones
protoss: probes
terran: scvs

read the tl wiki you fucking mongoloid retard

dont bother hes already gone to the club with his phone and his nigger friends and bitches

Is responding to posts without replying to them a hot new meme?

is being a retardnorm a hot new meme? you fucking retard

is it really that hard to understand who we were replying to? let me give you a hint we werent replying to someone 40 posts above us

lol replynorms are so silly :3

inb4 read the TL wiki IDIOTS

How the fuck are you supposed to play Zerg on SC2? I can spend all my money making drones, buildings, and some upgrades and then I have no fucking army when I get attacked but if I don't make drones and buildings then I'll have no FUCKING MONEY to make a god damn army

im about to blow your mind get ready norm

how about you dont spend it ALL on drones you fucking retard

Read my post you FUCKING IDIOT OIL CAN PISSDRINKER

>if I don't make drones and buildings then I'll have no FUCKING MONEY to make a god damn army

what are your hotkey setups? in sc2 I did 4 for bases, 3 for buildings and 1 for army so I could 1a move my deathball. that doesnt work in bw because I need like 30 army hotkeys

oh yeah i completely forgot you cant make army and drones simultaneously as zerg and you start with 0 drones silly me
jesus christ where do retards like you come from

whats the worst is that from your question i can guarantee you are in bronze and probably cant spend minerals after saturating even one base

start of with 1-4 for army and 5-0 for buildings and later in the game use minimap/camera hotkeys for your buildings and expand army hotkeys to however many you need

ideally you want to make almost nothing but drones and queens until your opponent is ready to attack, then make only units
the simplest approach imo is to try to stay one base ahead of your terran or protoss opponent but dont necessarily saturate your newest expansion with workers until you're sure they're expanding and not planning to attack you off two bases

its from the sc2 generals.
they're shit dont go there trust me

*trusts you*
now tell me your battletag big boy

not until you stop using their meta

>1gb for a strategy game
Times sure have changed

I installed sc today, but I've been getting errors all day saying to try again to reconnect later. Is it a common issue or something just I have been having?

I haven't played Brood War since well before StarCraft II came out. Man, am I fucking bad. I'm not Korean enough for this shit. But alas, I shall train every day until Remastered comes out. On the flipside, my APM is now at least double what it is in StarCraft II.

did you run it as administrator when you opened the game the first time

Where are you from?
In my third world hell hole my ISP is shitting itself whenever it's a blizzard game.
Something to do with how blizzard handles their servers a

im hosting 2vComp in US west games - feel free to join if ur bad

Not the first time but I tried it a later time and no improvement.
Canada, but i'm running on an old toaster not that it should reasonably matter for an old game.

I was playing 1v1 fighting spirit earlier and someone was obsing my game and he laughed at my 400apm spam at the start then halfway through my apm settles to 150-200 and he laughed and said I'd be F- on iccup

are any of the launchers working for 1.18? to play on fish youre supposed to use the laghack which makes the game playable

i dont think anyone weven plays iccup anymore, every time i've checked in the last couple of weeks there's like 10 people online and they're all spics. what a babydick though

I thought old SC 1.8 was getting widescreen support?

coming with remastered if its coming at all

it sucks there's no battle.net client integration yet.
i want to see if my sc2 friends are playing bw
i bet they are but I dont know their battletag

Good lord this thread is terrible. Thank god they made Veeky Forums. Best containment board since /vp/

They never said Classic BW was getting widescreen support, just the Remastered version.

If you look at the site or the trailer, the comparisons make this pretty evident.
