        Don't forget the 2 Gig Jim Raynor dog tag with Starcraft and Broodwar pre-installed on it.



        Don't copy that floppy!

            Got it. Been doing placement matches.

            4-0 so far. People need to learn how to expand and not wall themselves in.

                You know the beta key is printed on the receipt you get from preordering, right?

                    I've played about 15 ranked matches so far. Incredible game.

                    It's almost more a remake than a sequel, which is good. The pacing has been changed, which is better. Now, anything over twenty minutes is a long game. You should have full tier three armies at 200 food by that point.

                    My only complaint is that some of the UI upgrades that Blizzard made in Warcraft III were not brought over. For example, the lazy worker icon is gone. I don't know if this was intentional, or just laziness on the part of developers.

                    In the original Starcraft I always played Protoss, but I'm leaning towards becoming a Zerg player. Terran have some amazing new units now too, though. Protoss seems the most boring of the races, though they are incredibly powerful.

                      Has the number of selectable units been raised?

                        I don't think so. I think its about the same. They added units, but took about an equal number away.

                          ...the number of selectable units is now no limit.

                          Pretty sure there was an idle worker button at some point, but it may have been removed.

                            For some reason I read "selectable units" as in units in the game.

                            Yeah, no limit, which is nice.

                            EDIT: One thing I noticed is that, compared to Warcraft III and even the original SC to an extent, this game is much more macro based than micro. Expert players will do both well, but the average player is better off focusing on mineral flow and sending in masses of units than in microing armies.

                            EDIT 2: This game is amazing. Reminds me of why I love video games in the first place.
