Mississauga January 2006 Thread

See, the only reason I like WC3 more was because I’ve always been behind on computers. When I bought my first computer, it sucked, and it could barely run SC expansion. I played it a lot, but trashy net + computer that died when I popped up a few hydras really made it tough to play. WC3 however I played very close to the beginning on a new comp that I got just before it came out. I played the game a lot, and learned all the little tricks here and there to bring up my game. That’s why I like WC3 more.

BTW, in SC, the SCV blocking was a general top terran strat that people had to use. Its just pulling it off the way boxer and such did it was a bit hard…

Edit: Nope, I have nothing on my comp right now. 'cept War3 and WoW… I’m sure the game would be a flop, cause anybody with an insanely good gaming memory like poeta or bry would probably walk over everybody while I’m sitting there trying to remember how to make a sunken colony.

whats a sunken colony?

edit: id play starcraft, but i dont see poeta or bry finding their cds and cdkeys to play and i dont feel like playing a 1v1 with curt.

See my point?!?!? What is that?

sigh I wish I had homework today so I would have something to do… WoW expired… Dota sucks… Not gonna even attempt to play SC =P

Bad timing, my new router won’t let me play SC, until i can figure out how to get around this BS. Fucking VoIP shit.

Also, NGBC has more characters then ST. This obviously makes it better becuase it’s more diverse and complex. :rolleyes:

And yes, the only reason people think SC is better (imo) is because they played it first and got really into it at the time. That’s why it’s been going strong for 7 years now. Because they played it first. I also heard there were more players playing WC1 than WC3 because you know… it came out first.

Also, for people who think SC doesn’t have micro…

GGPO .

And to explain that vid…

apparently this wasnt clear, however…
complexity does not always = better.
i think war3 is better because SC was improved upon in so many ways, making war3 more complex, which is why i think its better.

Well… yeah… that vid was pro. So were the other moments.

Also… you can’t show those clips without thinking about what people have done in War 3 as well. I know both games are insanely complicated, but you can’t show that kind of clip without also showing the innovations in War 3 such as forest walking (back when it still worked…) and all the advanced creeping methods. The only thing that wrecked war3 a bit was blizzards constant nerfing to every advanced thing that was discovered.

thought id repost this since garenteed no1 saw it amidst all the war3 > sc discussions.
this is quite possibly the best flash animation ever made:

and heres a funny one some1 from my guild posted on our forums:

Heh i posted the video more because it was crazy than anything else. I wouldn’t mind seeing the same for wc3.

Quotebot is back, but since my comp crashed, I only have the backup quote file. Quotebot needs YOUR help in recovering the lost quotes. Nooble, I know you have logs, and since the only thing you do all day is quote anyway, help out!

Wow I posted a lot today

tat y u should play wc3, u have 2 do tat every ladder game. scout and counter.

cant wait 4 my hand to get better. playing 1 hand in wc 3 sux, cuz i cant mirco.

War3 > SC

also matt ill take your dota bet too, post the amount if your serious lol

Speaking of SC, does anyone know how to fix the CD read problem with windows XP? Apparently, my new computer (windows xp) sometimes doesn’t recognize the CD is in the drive. I’ve read about other people with the same problem but never found a solution that works for me. Also, I remember I had the same problem with Diablo 2, so I’m guessing it’s a problem with blizzard cds.

I can still play SC on my old computer. If anyone wants to play, just let me know.

BTW, I’ll probably be at EMTC tmr at around 12:30.

create a cd image and use a cd loader

The top seller of Rogers cellphone in ontario got $8,000 this decemeber on just commission… this guy won a trip to las vegas… and he’s the biggest pot head in the world… nigga named malcolm… i think i’m gonna have to smoke more ganja to increase my sales.

lol WORD^

OH btw, another reason sc > wc… none of the sc cds have copy right protection, so ither make a cd image, or dl one. use alcohol or dameon tools to mount the image on a virtual drive. lol that internet is for porn video was JOKES!!! ive seen the ultimate showdown one b4, still fuckin hilarious tho.

sup guys, my pc is fixed now, it was the motherboard, i played sanford im marvel today and all i have to say is that he is a poor sport.
