[SC2B] Micro Matters

Text byriptide
March 6th, 2010 00:55 GMT
[image loading]

Our two favourite SC2 voices are back this week, talking about balance changes, embarrassing in game moments, and of course, micro. There are many points of view out there at the moment on how unit control works in the Beta. Of course, when reading those opinions, its very easy to forget that the Broodwar micro management we know and love also evolved over many, many years. Listen in as these two old schoolers give us all some perspective. Micro aside, there is also a lot of patch talk as usual, with plenty of banter thrown in.

If you missed them talking about the last patch, here's a little bit about our casters. Sean "Day[9]" Plott needs no introduction on Team Liquid. From Day[9].tv to casting the TSL, he is the voice of TL and his rabid fan following grows everyday. His co-caster on this podcast, Tristan "Mantra" Brand, has been playing games since Warcraft 2, a man whom Day[9] calls "an ancient dinosaur among gamers" and by his own admittance is "a Blizzard RTS elitist."

If you've got thirty minutes to spare, this cast is definitely worth a listen. A micro discussion, balance talk and Artosis mothership jokes - what more could a nerd ask for? So, enjoy the cast and keep your ears open for a special announcement! As always, there's more great stuff from TL on the way.

How to Listen to Ogg Vorbis
The format of the podcast has been changed from mp3 to ogg. Here is a list of software that plays ogg on windows, mac and linux. Almost all media players (with the exception of Apple products) will be able to play Vorbis with no additional requirements.

ogg vorbis is pretty common, most media players play it
you can achieve smaller file sizes with similar quality compared to mp3 (for just voice), so it's easier on TL's bandwidth

great podcast once again!

loved the part about the development of micro throughout sc1's history and how the same will probably apply to sc2.

I don't want to complain because I appreciate the podcast, but iPods don't play oggs and I'm sure I'm not the only one using an iPod for listening to podcasts. I can and will convert it but it's just extra hassle

Yup I agree. My suggestion, if anyone cares, is to make it mp3 or mp4 (aac) in the future. In that way more people will be happy.
(btw: ogg/vorbis files play in Winamp, Foobar2000 and other good music players.)
