Unfortunately I keep getting dropped from the TL servers, so they're unplayable. Other people I was playing with yesterday were complaining of the same thing.

I'm really enjoying this game, except for all the noob teams. Whenever I play a team-based game I nearly always end up succumbing to team-rage. Playing TBD with a good team is amazingly fun, but playing with teams who don't know how to block, escort or bomb-carry is just infuriating.

edit - actually, I'll correct that. I don't mind if people don't know how to do those things, as then there is a good reason for not doing them and there is a chance that they'll learn, but it's those people who obviously know how to play the game decently, but just don't ever help their team.

Play in ladder or captain's games servers, much more organized and competitive there.

Oh really? I'll def give that a try. I know I'm foolish for expecting any level of teamwork on pub servers.

Sad that the Demo runs out, i played the game for 1-2 days and it said my Trial was up and that i had to purchase the game to play.

Other then that it seems like a awesome game, played it with some friends and we had a blast.

keyboard/mouse combo ?
Wow didnt even know some people play that way.
As far as I know, every higher level players use keyboard only.

thats the same feeling I have, but at the same time keyboard/mouse just feels "smoother" as long as you can control it properly

how can you play with both? Everytime i try to use a keyboard command after using the mouse i have to click twice to sort of activate the game again.

Hey, I bought the game, not because they supported the sc2 scene, but because it was so damn fun. Even with my high ping I am able to play for fun. I think as long as I avoid bomb carrying nobody seems to notice.

You can find me on official server 2 or 3 usually, or any real wall <20 people server. Could sure use some mentoring :D. I do ok with mouse and loopy... but trying to gain some real skills instead of altitude cheesing, so I have been practicing alot with explodet since somebody told me they are the most often needed on teams. I think the trickster is more fun, but perhaps it is just because all I manage to do with the whale is spin in circles for ever. Really need to be able to turn tighter
