I try, I really try.

I'm on ICC, I downloaded the maps, the launcher, the wtf latency plugin but I don't get it.

It takes half an hour for me to start a game, where:

1. I lag
2. I lose in 3 minutes

I don't understand the way it works (not the game, bnet, iccup).

At least when I played wc3, I had a fucking ladder, where I could just click "Play" and get games. SC is just a pain in the ass to learn, I don't know how you guy proceed to actually PLAY but it seems that I missed the tutorial somewhere...

Fuck this

Sorry about your luck, but seriously, if you don't have the patience to get ICCUP running, you likely wouldn't play too many games before quitting anyway.

No it doesn't, just ask in channel and you'll get it, or even better - host it yourself if you're capable.

in my experience, iccup has made finding actual 1v1 games much easier than before

you've got plenty of options:
1. hosting your own game
2. joining another game from the list
3. spam channel asking for someone to host
<Wolfpox> i remember when MVP beat that one guy, and everyone was like 'whoa' except that penguin dude.

I ask you to consider the possibility that it is you, and not StarCraft, that sucks.

Nah I'm not lagging. I can't join most of the games because we must be several people trying double clicking all game names like mad which results in games full all the time.

I can join when someone gives me the game name // password but you guys need to realize this is very boring to do. I know I'm whining but hey, that's my right !

Also, about D- I'm seriously beginning SC. I have basics build orders vs P or vs Z. I know my micro sucks but I've been watching enough VODs to know my basics. I get COMPLETELY crushed by any opponents.

It's like I'm doing my 7th SCV and I'm being Reaver dropped. Also, vs Zerg, I always face 5 pool which I have a lot of trouble countering.

Finally, vs Protoss, I have good timing on my first tank + walling to defend the first zeal + goons but I lose a lot to 2-gates. Just 8 dragoons going rampage in my base all the time, destroying the walling.

So hard.

Stop saying I suck and not SC.

1. I know that
2. You didnt fucking read what I said

I said it's HARD to get a game running, harder than wc3, harder than most games. Why cant you take a critic about SC for christ sake ?

I'm pissed.

I never blamed my loss on SC. I'm ready to lose 600 hundred games, NP.

I'm just saying the "meta" game is not easy to put your hands on (bnet, ladder, custom games, latency, firewalls, etc.)

when i host i get games in like 4 seconds. the only problem now is winning

if you can't host forward your ports, it's worth learning so you can play certain other games online too.
