Guest $iLk Posted April 2, 2004 Report Share Posted April 2, 2004 Any players here? I haven't played in ages and wanted to know if anyone around here has either of these? I had some awesome nights with my friends with this game... I love strategy. If anyone wants to set up a game - let's have at it! I like playing co-op mode where you both control the same units. Me and my friend would split - he would handle air and repair - and I would handle ground forces and defenses. Terran VS Zerg or Protoss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shingen Posted April 2, 2004 Report Share Posted April 2, 2004 I used to do the zerg rush alot, back in the day. They could really tear a hole in a player's early defenses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eclipse Posted April 3, 2004 Report Share Posted April 3, 2004 Haven't played in years, good game for it's time. We usually just played 2v2 comp with both being terran or one terran and one protoss. that AI was a pain sometimes to take down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest $iLk Posted April 3, 2004 Report Share Posted April 3, 2004 Me and my friend had to adjust tactics quick after the expansion... our gloating terran army didn't like Lurkers... We had creative slang names for all the zerg... spitters for hydras... crabs... buffalo.... funny stuff. You can probably figure which one's I'm talking about when you see them. I'm gonna be installing it again before long I think... me and my friends might play it sometime... if any of you guys wanna play sometime let me know.

Silk Posted April 3, 2004 Report Share Posted April 3, 2004 Hey $ilk. I've been thinking about picking these up. I'm a big RTS player but I got into it way after Starcraft. I normally play "Impossible Creatures" but also play "Age of Mythology", "Rise of Nations", "Warcraft 3(TFT)", "Dark Reign 2", "Sacrifice" & "Homeworld 2(although I have a hard time getting my head around this one)". Anyway everyone talks about how great the game was and I figured I should visit my RTS history. Plus I know it still has a big following. I hear it is actually a bit slow compared to the speed of an "Impossible Creatures" game though. Specifically I hear the build times are long. Anyway if I pick it up soon I'll be happy to play ya. You could give me some pointers because it always takes a while to get the builds down. I also like the sound of the co-op mode. That's pretty cool.

weegee_101 Posted April 3, 2004 Report Share Posted April 3, 2004 I still play a little starcraft $ilk. I play War3 & TFT the most out of all of my strategy games though. Drop me a PM if you want to play sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest $iLk Posted April 3, 2004 Report Share Posted April 3, 2004 Cool... we can all get a game together sometime. If they'd come out with SC2 I'd buy it... but don't look for it anytime soon considering they'd consider it "Tried and done" or whatever. Starcraft was a fresh idea of the genre, and had excellent balance between the races. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest $iLk Posted April 9, 2004 Report Share Posted April 9, 2004 You should be able to get the battle-chest with both games and strategy guides for about $20.00 or less... I think you can get both games without guides for $10.00 though I'm not sure. Is direct-ip gaming possible with it or do we have to use Battle.net? I can't remember.

Silk Posted April 10, 2004 Report Share Posted April 10, 2004 Got the battle-chest tonight at BestBuy, it cost $19.99 but I had a $5 Gift Certificate so ya can't beat it for $14.99. Gonna install and take it for a run. Hopefully we can get a game going this weekend. I'm sure you guys will rock me but ya gotta learn somewhere.

Played a couple of skirmish games. Played 2 games with some friends against the AI on Battlenet(I have gotten rocked every time LOL). And am on the 5th mission on the regular game so far. I like it. Now I just need to get good at it. OK $ilk enjoy your kids, they are what counts and hopefully we can get together next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest $iLk Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 Me and my friend play against AI on hard mode while me and him play co-op as terrans... (control same units) He handles construction, repair, air support - and I handle base defenses and ground units. We win by the skin of our teeth sometimes... but it's fun. Would be nice to play with you guys this week sometimes. I'm -6:00 GMT (CST) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
