The game is alright so far. My biggest annoyance is with the hotkeys... why did they mess it up??
For some units/commands, it's almost as if they are using random letters... wtf?
V for Overlord??
E for Probe??

Think: Range of motion on your left hand, like an FPS, or like WoW. It's good to have all the hotkeys centered around the left half of your keyboard cuz your right hand's on the mouse.

Yeah, after a bit of research, I realized that's what's going on.
I kinda wish we can reconfig the hotkeys. Or have an option of normal (SC2)
or traditional (SC1) hotkey settings.
I don't think the left hand hotkey-ing really helps that much, since people still use hotkeys from 6-0.
The hand is bound to move anyway. With practice, I think people can shift their fingers from left to right
hotkeys without even looking.
It took a few rounds to get used to, but the left hand hotkey is awesome, I love it. It's probably one of the main reasons I can not die against the V5 AI's early rush.
Is V6 just a better rush AI, or is it more comprehensive? I find it mildly annoying that they build up to air units in the tech tree, but you never face any. I'd be happy with a more comprehensive AI...but then I guess I shouldn't complain about shit I don't pay for and have illegally.
-edit-
I've just moved up to v.21, and I'm now having issues.
Spoiler!

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
That screen comes up whenever I try to play the game. It's highly annoying, can anyone give me some advice? I can't play the game at the moment. Hopefully I don't have to reinstall the whole beta 'cause I kind of deleted the original install file. I'm running win7 Home Pro on a Q9650 if it's important.
I'm not sure which version I had at first. Because I currently have 3 different versions.
6.0 isn't too bad. The only thing it got is the early rush, which was no different than standard BroodWar AI.
the 6.1.1 is hard though.... I keep getting raped.
Mainly cause I'm still trying to get used of the new features.
I'm still reading the text to see what each unit does. lol
I'm kinda ticked at how lame the zergling looks now... But the Hydra looks so badass.
