For anyone who wants to try SC2 beta without a betakey, you can use lazylaunch to load a map to play around against AI.
The AI is set to very easy and offers no challenge at all, but you can still play around with the new units and stuff.
SC2 maps can be found here: http://www.nibbits.com/sc2/maps/

Thanks for the heads up! Downloading the Client now, I've been browsing torrent sites too and there seems to be a couple torrents for "AI Supported maps with easy/med/hard" soo I'll see how it goes
ill pay someone 5 dollars to get the SC2 beta working on my computer!!

Got mine to work! I don't know if I'm actually versing comps though it starts a game.
Shoot me a pm if you need any help
Edit: there are actual comps!

I hope someone comes out with some harder AI. I downloaded an "Easy/Med/Hard" pack but the AI is just terrible, I think I tried playing on Medium against 3 opponents, and it was stupid easy, I was attacked once in 30 minutes.
Other wise, it works wonderfully.....
Phucmang, Download the Beta client from Piratebay, or any other torrent site. Install the game, run the launcher, let the game update to the latest version. Download Lazy Launcher, download from torrent site of your choice, put Lazylauncher into SC2 directory (same as the .exe for the game). Lastly, download one of the AI Map Packs, follow instructions in said download, it might ask you to replace one .mpq file, or replace one folder. Replace as needed. Run Lazylauncher, select map from mappack download, launch and you should be good to go! Oh, you'll know if you have computer opponents or not as if you don't it will say "You win! Quit/Resume" right after launch.
You cannot save though as its the multiplayer beta ;)

Beta Installation and
AI Guide
(video): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6YfX-OZWKQ
What you will need:
Actual Beta client: HERE
Launcher (v2): HERE
AI Compilation: HERE
usmc23 & turdbuglar AI v5.1 (Smartest Yet): HERE
usmc23 & turdbuglar AI v5 (Tweaked with 2x minerals): HERE
usmc23 & turdbuglar AI v4: HERE
usmc23 & turdbuglar AI v4 Unsupported (cheating and harder): HERE
Recently fixed Chinese version AI (5 different lvls): HERE
Tweaked Chinese with custom Protoss: HERE
Map Pack: HERE
More Maps: HERE
Optional:
Beta Loader (extends lazylauncher v2.0, comes with AI, very cool, can add maps and AI, customizable): HERE
Note: Rename no longer required
Resource Hack (for the cheaters out there): HERE
What you will do:
1) Assuming you have downloaded the Beta client, run it and install to default directory.
2) Once installed, run. You should then be presented with a patch upgrade.
3) Continue with patching. If you haven't been presented with a patch upgrade, continue to step 5.
4) After finished patching, don't play. Just quit.
5) Download the launcher to someplace you wont forget ( I suggest making a "SC2 stuff" folder on your desktop or somewhere)
6) Download the AI Compilation and extract to the "SC2 stuff" folder. There will be a readme there with helpful information. In one of the steps in the readme, it will tell you to load the map in the map folder. Don't, since we will download a separate map pack and use those maps. Do follow every other previous step though.
7) Download the Map Pack and extract to some folder in your "SC2 stuff" folder.
8) You're basically good to go. Run the Launcher, select a map from the Map Pack you have downloaded, and enjoy!

Can anybody give me a step by step how to install the beta? I'm soo stupid, I can't read the instructions properly.
I've also noticed is that when i launch the lazy launch problem is crashes. Is it related to JIT debugging?

DuhDang
03-05-2010, 05:23 PM
i didnt download the patch and it still works.
So far playing the game it feels like an expansion pack. Doesnt seem like any real changes or improvements from SC1.
They just added some units and took some out.
City-bear
03-05-2010, 05:48 PM
Ive played almost 100 games of the beta now (vs real ppl) I have to say if this game stays the way it is, i dont think it will be as long lasting as the original SC1.
Obviously there are still balance issues, but with that said, the game is much faster. I actually enjoy the faster pace.
The other major issue that I dont like, and the reason why i think it wont be as great as the original is the lack of depth in micro and macro. The game itself reminds me more of Warcraft 3 (where units of a certain type do x amount more dmg or less dmg vs other types of units, they've used a similar system in sc2). There are so many hard counters that the mediocre players can beat very good players with very little skill at all. It has devolved itself from a game of chess to rock/paper/scissors. I hope they do something to fix this, and i do think that a lot more can be added into the game, but there will be 2 more exp pacs coming out of this so meh.

i really miss some of the units in the original and BW. I am running it on my laptop so the graphic is garbage lol. I still like SC1, BW more but hopefully the custom maps will be at least good as the original.

03-05-2010, 08:35 PM
I don't really know the terminology for SC. What's the difference between macroing and microing? I remember I read somewhere that SC2 is more macroing as opposed to microing? I'm not really sure what they are though.
I've been enjoying the cracked version but I really want to be playing against real people :P. People on RFD said they sent out another wave of invites so everyone check your BNet accounts!

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.
http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/van/sys/1638544568.html :lol
hahaha. no thanks. I can wait and buy all three full version games with my $250 instead.
Graeme S
03-11-2010, 06:57 PM
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.
See the end of this message for details on invoking

To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging

For example:

</configuration>
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.

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.

The standard edition will sell for a suggested retail price of $59.99 and will also be available shortly after release as a download through the online Blizzard Store. The special Collector's Edition package, which is priced at $99.99 and will only be available at retail stores, will include the following bonus items in addition to the game disc:
# The Art of StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty, a 176-page book featuring artwork from the game
# An exclusive 2GB USB flash drive replica of Jim Raynor's dog tag, which comes preloaded with the original StarCraft and the StarCraft: Brood War® expansion set
# A behind-the-scenes DVD containing over an hour of developer interviews, cinematics with director's commentary, and more
# The official StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty soundtrack CD, containing 14 epic tracks from the game along with exclusive bonus tracks
# StarCraft comic book issue #0, a prequel to the comic series
# A World of Warcraft® mini Thor in-game pet that can be applied to all World of Warcraft characters on a single Battle.net account
# Exclusive Battle.net downloadable content, including special portraits for your Battle.net profile, decals to customize your units in-game, and a visually unique version of the terran Thor unit
"We've been looking forward to revisiting the StarCraft universe with our players for over 10 years, and we wanted to offer an epic collector's edition that commemorated the occasion," said Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment. "This special version of StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty -- easily our biggest collector's edition to date -- does just that, and we think StarCraft II gamers will really enjoy all of the exclusive contents."
StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty is the sequel to Blizzard Entertainment's 1998 hit StarCraft, which has been hailed by players and critics worldwide as one of the top real-time strategy games of all time. StarCraft II will once again center on the clash between the protoss, terrans, and zerg, with each side deploying favorite units from the original StarCraft, along with numerous upgraded and brand-new units and abilities that allow for fresh tactics and strategies. The game's new 3D-graphics engine maintains the speed and responsive control of its predecessor while rendering hundreds of units onscreen for massive battles.
StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty's solo campaign will continue the epic saga where it left off in StarCraft: Brood War. The storyline chronicles the exploits of marshal-turned-rebel-leader Jim Raynor and features both familiar faces and new heroes. Players will be able to tailor the experience, choosing their own mission path and selecting technology and research upgrades to suit their playing style throughout the 29-mission campaign.
Several challenge-mode mini-games will also be included, with focused goals designed to ease players into the basics of multiplayer strategies. In addition, dozens of multiplayer maps will be available for competitive play through the new version of Battle.net, which is launching alongside StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty. This new version of the service has been built from the ground up to offer an unparalleled online play experience, with new features such as voice communication, character profiles and achievements, stat-tracking, ladders and leagues, cloud file storage, and more.
Additional information about StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty, including the release date, will be announced in the coming weeks.

so why does the mothership suck so much now?
i was expecting the blackhole to kill his entire army. it sucked up like his ENTIRE army, i laughed... then they popped back out and owned my mothership... where's her time slower thing? her earth cracker?!
she's completely useless, like a novelty unit.

Where did you guys preorder? I want to preorder but I don't want to get it shipped, I'm afraid of not being able to play on day 1 of release. I'd rather much be playing the whole day its realeased from 12-12! haha probably not though.
I haven't used the mothership at all when versing real people. I've used it a couple times when I was versing comps. They're not useless though, they have the mass recall and they also have the ability to cloak.
Ulic Qel-Droma

yeah cloak and recall thats it, and that stupid temporary warp. for the cost of the mothership it isnt worth it. they shoulda at least kept the earth cracker

04-12-2010, 06:47 PM
^vortex + a nuke = destroy their whole army in 2s.
From what I've read vortex = 20s nuke = 20s
Did you have to pay the full 100 or just the $5 deposit?
^^The temporary warp is actually pretty useful if you were playing 2v2 or more... I think it's worth it considering it doesn't cost that much later in the game......It's useful for macro which occurs more in SC2 than in SC1^

so how can one effectively use immortals? I love the concept of the unit (even though they killed off my beloved dragoon)
I know they're good against heavy hitters like siege tanks etc.
but what about defensive siege tanks, with 1-2 bunkers and some marines? they get slaughtered. I guess I have to bring backup.
but i still havent found an effective way to use them... I think immortals should get a slight range upgrade.
^IMO I usually use immortals mostly for backup if they try to take down my defense (cannons) or a mid-map battle...but obviously you will need other units...I kind of use it mostly as support? I think it's also good against mauraders but i'm not sure..
funthera.militia
thats me, I'm pretty newbz... my laptop isn't good enough to run it smoothly :( but maybe we can set up an RS 2v2? haha
City-bear
04-16-2010, 02:14 PM
immortals are really effective vs any terran mix of marines/maruders and if ur facing zerg they rip thru roaches (which means i pretty much get them everytime i go vs zerg).
if ur playing toss, use sentries and put up a shield or something before u go into taking seige tank dmg. sentries are really useful units and a lot of the top players can do amazing things with them haha
Anyone want to do 2 v 2 beta today? Set this up!
DragonChi
04-17-2010, 06:15 PM
immortals are really good against buildings too.
If i remember right, this is a really good TvP replay...
Theres another one out there where T is on scrap station and does a bunker + siege approach, I can't seem to find it though... might be on BlizShouter or huskystarcrafts channel...nvm found em.. but T won both games..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGP1-R9rugo

I actually got my beta keys last tuesday lol. I pre order my at brentwood EB like 1month ago. Went back last tuesday to pick up some WoW timecard and ask the guy about my per order. He look up my name and just give me the key on the spot.
From what he told me they keys come in bathes. So if you pr-order yours on the spot and ask for a beta key they will most likely give u one if they have extra. They said they will call people who per order thiers but so far one guy at work never got a call from them and he order his way before I did. So I guess they give his keys away and didn't bother calling him lol.

whats the point of getting collectors edition? Your paying $50 more for the same game but you get a bunch of artwork that you will never look at and a cd that you will never listen too.. LOL

I preordered it like 2 weeks ago and they told me it didnt matter how much you put in first, so I put in $20. The funny thing was I didnt even know I was suppose to get a beta key and the girl never told me. The other day my friend told me all preorders are eligible to get beta keys... and the next day EB games called me lol.

Whats your budget?
I got a computer for around $900 in january including the monitor and it runs this game and anything else on high/highest settings.
get a quad core amd instead of a core 2 duo. Should perform a lot better too, get the Athlon II X4 630.
and get a 4870 or 5770 for DX11 support

I'd say under $500. Doesn't need to be played on high settings. Medium is fine
