I think they just nuked everything as an ending to the video. I guess what i dont like about the protoss from what ive seen is theres no infantry, its all vehicles. It sounds like theres no dark templars since they are now some dragoon looking thing which means no dark archons. There may still be the other templars where you can make archons still (the blue ones). | |

For the last nearly 2 years I've been working on revising the Battle.net service for Starcraft 2 and beyond. It's really amazing being a senior member of a very small team building the online service for the world's greatest game company. | |

So Fnord, does Blizzard have any plans to do another wingcommander/privateer game? Those were about the best games ever done. |

btw I was SICKENINGLY good at SCBW back in the day. And not like everyone else that proclaims it. Of course this is what happens when you play a game for the better part of 3 years or so. | |

there were some cool ums' MTG was pretty cool, also the classic bunker /rine wars. Smash TV was cool too. But nothing compared to a good match on lost temple or dire straights. | |

paintball was pretty cool, or the bunker wars or whatever you call it where you kept spawning endless marines at a bunker. | |

Meh, got to level 35. I didnt realize i could get the combo towers that early and decided to upgrade others instead. | |

Fnord - just wondering if there's anyone in house that is a linux fanboy that pushes for us users who refuse to use M$ software.. I appreciate that that Bliz has been great releasing Mac versions of many games where most other comps ignore it - but not all of us can afford that hardware |

Got to the last level and its never ending. I only got like 5k points though... Has anyone else played it? | |

I pretty much just build a couple cannons and upgrade them, then build the fire towers when i can and upgrade a couple of those until i can get the rockets. Do you think it is worth while to build water towers to slow or just build as many rockets as possible? | |

k, just played again, 9387. Last level isn't infinite, there are just a lot of guys. | |

Just the standard upgraded ground cannons? I didnt think the water slowed down those guys on the last level though. | |

I never realized what the interest was from. You think it is worth getting a couple levels of interest first? | |

Ya i just got 11611. I got over 800 interest a couple time. My center was packed with like 26-27 rockets when i started 39, and then i got 3 more in on the right side as it was going. I died though, i only started lvl 39 with 6 lives. | |

i think the rockets ruin this game by making it way too easy. | |

ok going through this again and it appears that you can actually get pretty far with only 1 cannon and one of them pea shooters | |
05-23-2007 12:40 AM
#56
| |
the cannon has to be placed not only so that it can cover as much ground as possible, but also in such a way that you maximize splash damage, it takes some getting used to and there are a few good spots, i think the best one though is near the top hugging either wall and in such a way that half of it is to the left (or right) of the wall and the other half protrudes from it. | |
05-23-2007 01:14 AM

damn i beat it first try, but only with a score of 9.4k | |

also, look at original starcraft. Protoss had some sick units in there as well. +1 attack zealots ripped through lings in 2 hits, dark templar high templar, reavers, carriers, etc. In reality the game was very balanced, and if anything, toss was slightly underpowered especially on LT. A lot of the units were never even really practical in a real game. like vs zerg in mid-late game you'd normally see zeal/goon/archon/templar as the main army. | |
