StarCraft 2 Impressions

by on Feb.24, 2010, under News

So I was able to play the SC2 beta for a couple hours today. I question myself why I am so surprised that SC2 is a virtual clone of SC. Yes, it does look pretty! the mechanics, the way you play even most of the units are a direct carry over from the original however. Now… is that a good or bad thing? I am not sure and I am a little on the fence about it.

The Beta is vs only and I didn’t play the original much that way. Most of my games where over within 10 minutes or less and too me that is just a bit too short. I don’t like that most of the units never make an appearance in a match because most people have figured out what units to build the fastest and rush with the quickest. Once you succeed with the rush it’s game over and no way to come back. If you don’t succeed then you done for because you expended so much energy into that rush effort. AT least that is how most of the games go. That part I know I don’t like!

Time will tell, but just as I said in the podcast. I think this will be mainly co-op play with my buddies. The vs. matches I don’t enjoy much (full disclosure dictates that I mention that I was on the receiving end in most game by a big margin) ;)
