Okay bitches, it's Starcraft time

[The_Nameless_Prick]

I getting the game now. Since I have never played it, I'm gonna practice for a while and start using my brain in RTS mode. Hell, I'm sure I have enough brain cells left to be a worthy opponent. Might make my e-penis bigger.

<Nicolai> Maybe if you get SMT to write me a poem and post it on the Codex

Clouds of carriers
Darken the sky and her soul
Turtle hides in vain

Why ant-mounds include a warrior caste:

The campaign is a poor teacher and you pick up bad habits like turtling up, not expanding and not executing early game rushes like you have to in multiplayer. Plus you can take your namby, pamby time in the campaign. After killing enough units the mission turns into a game of mop-up as you slowly scour the playing field looking to destroy each and every building in order to complete the mission.

That's a good point.

I remember my first (and only) MP broodwar match:
I was just building Goliaths and my first fighters when the Zerg player appeared with a huge swarm of Mutalisks that tore through my base, wiping out all resistance within seconds.
He then expressed surprise at my weakness, stating he'd just meant to check out what I was up to.
The worst part is I had focused on AA defense to no avail.

I'm not even entirely sure what I could've done to be more well prepared. I probably didn't produce enough SCVs from the start and didn't have a strong enough industry to keep pace.

 

[Atrokkus]

Totally beat Endurance, me and IXG.

 

[SlavemasterT]

I search for players for drunken starcraft matches later.

 

[POOPERSCOOPER]

We still have people who are open to play starcraft so just join #fallout on gamesurge.net and ask to play maybe.

Me vs ixg & Muug; I win eventually. Rustiness prevails amongst veterans, the newb shuffles around for most of the game.

edit: where are the rest of you fags, a game or two of SC on occasion ain't gonna kill ya

 

[ixg]

Totally discovered new respect for zerg B)

 

[Müg]

It was my first time, I have few regrets.

My playing wasn't completely incompetent, but I was a bit micromanaging things.

 

[Alexander_]

Brought to you by popular demand (just SMT actually) -- the defeat of Poop and Mug by ixg and yours truly.

Highlights include:

Mug builds a medium sized fleet of carriers, unable to avert attention from something eventually sees that fleet go out in a blaze as heroic wraiths and marines storm in and make short work of the sitting ducks.

Soon afterwards, Poop experiences a massive drop in supply followed by methodical harassment of the amassed lings and hydras but still prefers to brazen it out throughout the final minutes of his imminent doom.

Linky.

 

[POOPERSCOOPER]

The game lagged too much so my super micro skills suffered, also Muug had the reaction time of a dead person.

An unspeakable evil has been unleashed upon Starcraft: http://www.bwhacks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26328

Hopefully it works for 1.15 only. I'm still playing 1.14 with friends.

 

[SlavemasterT]

I'm not sure exactly what it is, but it'd only be a concern for us if anyone here still played SC.

 

[Müg]

Which we can't because Hamachi sucks.

 

[SlavemasterT]

Yeah, I can't think of anything else that could be responsible for last night's problems. On the other hand, if it was some Hamachi-wide issue, then the odds are good that it'll be addressed at some point. Unless the reason we're having troubles is because we're still using the old version...

Anyone know of similar software we could use?

 

[SlavemasterT]

Moved by guilt, I finally am compelled to admit that I cheated in this contest of wits between imbeciles: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=SL6R1ZZT

You have to have the older 1.14 version to view it, but it's worth it, at least if you enjoy the insane babblings of incapacitated nutjobs. Pooper, all I can say is I'm so, so sorry for betraying your trust.

Why don't you just use one of the unofficial battlenet servers?

 

[SlavemasterT]

Why don't you just use one of the unofficial battlenet servers?

a) No one wants to play anymore anyway,
b) We often have (had) mangy pirates playing who don't have proper keys, and
c) Our limited attempts to utilize Battlenet were plagued with odd connection problems

 

[inwoker]

Is 170 ping enough for starcraft? If i remmember correctly 130 was norm. If 170 is enough, we may ask to run pvpgn on rpgcodex. Or am I saying some bullshit?

 

[Nicolai]

Needs more carriers blotting out le soleil.

 

[Destroid]

a) unnoficial Bnet servers are for people without legit copies.

b) 170 should be fine, bad ping isnt TOO much of a handicap in rts (I used to comfortably play over modem on bnet when SC was new).

 

[kingcomrade]

Hamachi is easier, that's why.

 

[SlavemasterT]

Meta, couldn't you have come up with some less convoluted way of putting this together so that a year and half down the line we weren't getting fucked with having to download bizarre old stripped-down versions of things to resurrect Codex gaming?
