About

Classic defend the compound style gameplay from waves of zerg.

Supposed to work in multiplayer, but lack of map publishing means I don't know.

Tips

* Start with marines or reapers at the beginning.
* Utilize those choke points!
* Repair bunkers!


It's in beta because I'm sure there's balance changes to be made, throw me some feedback if you have any.

I also did a partial playthrough of this game with commentary, you can see it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrI7BOPs-90

No, I really don't have a thing for most deathmatching/competitive portions of games, and I didn't like micro games all that much (if you recall back in the days of map nights, I absolutely despised uberena, which was nothing against moose its just I didn't like micro games :P ).

It's not a matter of practice, it's just that I never found games particularly hard to figure out.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?

Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings

Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.

NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.

NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:

Oh_Man -- makes me wonder if SEN knows anything about the topic
