I'd like to see a new AAA multiplayer turn based tactics game. We haven't had one in a long time.

Bloodbowl!!! Well okay, AAA perhaps not, but it is fun if they could just fix the fucking league stuff. |

From the description, when he mentions LSN- Unfortunately, at $60 a year (!) it's not especially cheap I think this guy fails at math. |

No shit, Sherlock. I found that little comment in the LS download page amusing and wanted to share. Because I care. I care to share. DAMMIT! |

This is a particularaly good replay; it showcases pretty much every protoss and zerg unit in a tight game. Part 1Part 2Part 3Part 4 |

Very fun reply to watch, although I have to agree with the commentators that the zerg player probably could of ended the game much earlier with a few different decisions. |

Yea, there was very little reason for the zerg player to allow those island expo's to live. At the same time, being able to just respawn 100-150 supply worth of army every 20 seconds has to be pretty fun too!  Here is that match's up polar opposite in terms of game scale: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pETcAm82vXUInsane Stalker micro. |

Indeed, I like seeing IdrA lose though. He seems like a total ass. |

Indeed, I like seeing IdrA lose though. He seems like a total ass. It warms the heart every time I see him lose. But it's so much better when he goes off. Nazgul kicked him out of the latest Zotac this Sunday, and Idra went out with "I don't know why I bother playing on this server"; "It lags so bad". And left without GG. So nice :) |
As a matter of fact I swallowed one of these about two hours ago and the explanation is that it is, in fact, my hand.

I will almost certainly get this game when the single player campaign can be gotten all at once for a reasonable price. That shit with Idra is great soap opera but fuck me those guys live in some bizarre alternate world (especially since I'm not much into gambling either).

I'm crossing my fingers that my updated system specs of "Desktop resolution: 6004x1080" will increase my chances of getting an invite since I'm a less common setup now.  |

Finally got in, just played two games. First one against a very easy comp just to get a handle on things. Won that, then did a 1v1 matchmaker. Got a protoss opponent (I play zerg), we attacked each other about the same time, but my mutalisks wrecked his Nexus much faster than his giant mecha things could tear through my defenses. Goddamn.  Question: anyone know the trick to changing the full screen resolution? Mine defaults to 800x600, and playing in windowed mode removes the ability to scroll with the mouse. |

escape -> options? You could do it from the login screen (I think) or the battle.net screen too (I'm sure).
I'm playing at "full screen windowed", and don't have any problems with scrolling. Makes alt-tabing much easier though.

I'll clarify the problem: when I go into the options menu, clicking the Resolution box does nothing. No list appears, etc. When I change to Fullscreen or Fullscreen (Windowed), the game doesn't take up the whole screen, only the left two thirds or so. Which I suppose is more playable than 800x640 or whatever the low default is, but still annoying.

Drag the corner of the window and it scales up resolution, and works Seems like the game thinks is in window mode all the time if you have no resolution option. |

Hmm, trying that gets it resized and all, but then my mouse positioning seems off, by a lot. Resizing it by hand, then switching to Windowed (Fullscreen) seems to have fixed it. Gonna play a game and see. Edit: Nope, that cuts off an inch or so from the bottom of the screen. |

Pre-Ordering from almost anywhere nets you a beta code - Amazon, Gamestop, EBgames, etc.

Seems as good a time as any to pre-order then since I would eventually anyways. |
