When the official beta is released do I need a) steam? b) wincrap live account? (and if yes, is it obtainable with 'not so genuine' windows?) | ||

2) Mmmmm, I'm not 100% sure but I just use my MSN ID :o (Although I think I had to do some additional registrations, but I don't remember any authenticity checks). | ||

Search the ones that have T3 units in it and the ones that take over 25 minutes... If it's over 1%, i'm astonished. Well, 1v1 ranked ladder is played with 3 Victory Point Locations - and either yourself or your opponent will control the majority of these. As controlling these makes your opponents 500 victory points decrease and with no way to increase it, the game basically has a "win timer". Someone eventually loses all 500 points - and close games of say 27-0 will end around 22 minutes. Not necessarily a bad thing, imo, as it does mean one can play a quick game during lunch or something without worrying that it will go on too long. Something does need to be done about T3 though. One must first have to pay for the tier 3 upgrade, and then due to lack of an ability to increase one's resource rate in the game at this point, wait for over a minute to be able to afford a single T3 unit. By the time this unit gets to the field of battle, someone would already be basically out of victory points...... It just isn't viable in 1v1 at the moment. | ||

I think the games are inherently short because of the way the maps are designed. Small map = short game. Its a bit like starcraft when you think about it, the outcome of a game greatly depends on the type of map you play. Im sure relic will release some bigger maps fof 1v1 that will allow players to reach T3. | ||

Let's play! (I hope you don't play Orks, as it seems that my DoW only hangs up when there's Orks on the screen )Edit: Ok, the game gets better and better, it doesn't hang up now (got some good streak) and everything seems fine. Some things I don't like: - automatchmaking system - would be better if you could de-select some maps (I don't know most of them yet but in the future I guess I won't like some of them) and if it would actually match you against someone of similar rank (and not 3 rank 1 guys vs 3 rank 20+ like I got today) - if one person lags or has performance issues it affects everyone (me no like watch slideshow cuz of some noob who can't get his settings right) - ranks don't save sometimes (I'm at 4k rep now and made rank 2 with SM twice already - didn't lose any games in the meantime) - maybe I'm just noob with them but nids seem seriously underpowered, Zoanothrope is fine but for example Hive Tyrant is way too slow and too squishy, basic units are very squishy (including warrior brood) or very slow and I haven't noticed them comboing well (like SM hb suppresion + am jump = pure ownage) - I don't like the steam ingame pop-ups (only at start though) - I don't like games for windows live stuff (having a lobby for multiplayer games would be awesome) Things I like: - I'd give a lot to see the face of a guy whose Carnifex got soloed by my Apothecary - devastator squads with heavy plasma (hell yeah!) - although the game feels really slow at times it's not that you're just standing there doing nothing, most of the time you're moving around the map capping/decapping and looking for some opening you could use to gain advantage And I don't get people who say T3 is too costly and you can't reach it before the game ends. It's there to break the stalemate when the game's been going on for too long or if it's a close one and you need something extra to seal your victory, it fills this role perfectly. | ||

The Warboss has this rofl item called the Bosspole which creates this crazy animation on anything friendly in a massive radius. I was playing with FA's Nids as Orcs and the game practically froze when my Warboss walked past his Nid army. | ||
