this method will make you just produce units as fast as you can and attack move in their base because comps dont micro.

you dont need to upgrade,micro,harrass, take more than 2 expansion, make probes constantly.

the way you win on x5 is just getting 1 expo and make some probes and then just push units out of ur 8 gates all the time without doing anything else. thats it. it doesn't help.

you would need to force urself to do everything you would do against an intelligent player so that it helps. but you wont, because its not needed against the comp

I intend to use this against humans on 1.2x or something similar. Enough to push me but not enough to make me start dropping useful actions in an attempt to prioritise.

That means a lot of apm on hotkeys! ;P Almost like EAPM :p

Btw, as for those talking about mod memory, as far as I understand the program does not wok at sc memory level or app level, it alters the internal clock of the application against cpu cycle or somewhere along those lines. When I used it back in like '99, the 'speed gear' was simply a sliding bar that you can decrease/increase computer's clock vs real time, and it works at OS level, no option to be applicaiotn specific. I don't know how much the program has been updated since then.



Cheatengine is application specific.

Well I have no intention of beating the comp, what I did was just to practice my build orders, like I'd do if I played a computer on normal speed.
Having simply the goal of defeating the comp seems like a waste of time to me.

You should have made the OP into a sonnet, Mr. Bulldog. It seems like a good idea, though. Sure, it's not going to make you jump ranks (I think that's why a lot of people keep on mentioning "massgaming" - there is no substitute for experience), but I bet it will make your gameplay a lot smoother and more comfortable.

EDIT: Just tried this 2x seems okay, but 7.5x ... holy shit... I can't even double tap a hotkey to center on a building... But even on 2x, a mouse speed that seems perfectly fine in a normal game seems hellishly slow. Anyways, really cool, wok. I'll try this some more when I get home just practicing BOs or something. By the way, I'm going to hunt you down when I somehow manage to fry my computer.

You can't mutalisk micro on anything higher than 2x...unless you have over 500 apm or something...
one thing that sc2 has over bw is the fact that I can actually manage my hotkeys

Muta micro is just too easy and powerful at 2x. just A move anywhere and mutas attack nearly instantly when marines come close enough. So if you want to do muta micro I would not suggest modding the speed.

This is more of a challenge to yourself than training or practice vs other players. For 1 the comp sucks no matter what. 2, this requires a whole new skill set than a regular game. 3, none of this is applicable to a human player.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

Just curious (maybe this has already been answered): what would happen if you tried to play against someone on x2 speed while he was running the .exe at normal speed?

I played a few games of this vs Pads. I usually feel rushed, as if I'm doing everything a second late, late game when it comes to multitasking whereas on 1.3x speed I felt like that midgame. It punishes you for basic errors like not using the f keys for saving workers too. I felt it was helpful for forcing me to adapt to more actions, with pre-emptive pylons for psi and checking gates more often. No more helpful than loading up a save game of the late game and playing it over and over but even so, it's good practice for multitasking.
