I lost my love of Warcraft to Starcraft 2. It's aching me!

I almost got kicked when I actually blocked a player's way in a DotA match.

Your lucky enough he didn't kick you for just being on his team for 4 seconds into the game :rolleyes:

Starcraft is where Real Gamers Play. Anyone playing any other game that's less balanced (except supreme commander. It's made of win) is beneath me.

Hm... I'm thinking that might be a cause. But on second thought, Warcraft 3 is also for real gamers. Can someone help me with this dilemma?

what dilemma. wc3 is a great game. and in Taiwan MLG players are full of win :thup: they mainly play starcraft however. The point is.... get sc2 along with any more RTS games that blizzard releases. They may be douches about third-party material but they make great games. Theres nothing to be ashamed of if you like another one of their games. Its the same company, is it not?

Go Starcraft Broodwar first. Trust me the Game is Hard to master as it is now and im sure that Starcraft 2 would be as well.

Learning from the original one would help you master Melee play there much easier. If you're into that sorta thing.

It's been a while since I played WC3, but I have gotten kicked for a million and one reasons.

You got kicked because you told someone that Alienware was for gaming?
LO-freaking-L!

Back on topic: I'm excited.

Didn't people complain about WC3 taking a while?

I think Blizzard is still polishing it and programming it.

Blizzard is like Bungie: They take a while, when it comes out, it WILL be good, I have yet to hear about a Blizzard game which was hated.

SC2, don't go the Duke Nukem: Forever route.

I think he meant Wine or something...

And yeah, Starcraft is hard alright...There's no descriptions about the units.

I don't mean WINE. That isn't really an emulator. I mean things like snes9x, playing snes on your computer. But that's getting off topic. :rolleyes:

Warcraft Orcs and Humans > Halo

Every fan of Blizzard knows to expect lots and lots of delays. And despite all the squirming we do when we hear that we'll have to wait longer, we know that Blizzard does this because they want their stuff to be perfect. It's obvious from the HUGE following each of their franchises have (not even including WoW). Look at any Top X PC games and you'll see Blizzard at least once. And Starcraft 2 will be another.

And this, friends, is why we wait.

EDIT:
I will concede that WoW has sucked up a lot of their time. But you can't blame them, people pay good money for it. Blizzard's own standards push them to keep WoW in the best state possible (and release new content often). And they'll have a, let's see..-unlimited- budget for any other projects :p

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
