:S What's wrong with you? Just because he's born in Japan he's not allowed to criticize whiners? I'm not even sure I know what reference you're making... Are Japanese people notorious whiners? You're from the USA. Americans have contributed their fair share of whine-posts.
Sorry, I just don't see where you're pulling the Japan/Whine association from.
Edit: sorry for off topic

Not that I have any idea where to get a cd key grabber (assuming he wants to find his own cdkey) but why don't you try a war3 forum, like http://www.wcreplays.com ?
Btw, I sometimes feel like not being able to create new threads for 10 days is a bit severe..
On topic:
I think everyone should stop complaining about the ghost - didn't you see it in the gameplay video (the very first one!?)? NOT A SINGLE PERSON COMPLAINED.
Why? Cause they look just like the SC 1 ghosts (great).
Btw, DTDominion, I agree with a lot of what you said in your post (sensor dome is gah) but the Viking can definitely become a fun unit.
Flying around with vikings and tanks in dships, securing cliffs or attacking islands sounds fun.
If the animation to transform from mech to airplane is fast maybe you can even dodge attacks with it.

i really do not like how the barracks and the supply depots look like. also the zerglings =[ or banelings (watever they are called)
seriosuly, it looks like those old fake sc2 units from the C+C mod.
but thor is Freaking amazing.. wow. i too, agree with everyone in here that approves of terran so far.
im pretty sure i would love using reapers.

Does anyone know how the Cobra will exactly work out on their attacks? If they move while attack and they move away from their target outside of their radius of attack, do they come back and hit the same unit again? Do they stop short of their radius and then just continue to pummel rushing Zealots? For example, if I do an attack move and my Cobra runs into a Zealot heading towards him, does he shoot, get hit by the Zealot rush in and then zip by, acting as if it didn't exist? I think they should just be like the Vulture in terms of execution and attack. If we wanted Vultures to attack and run away, we use Patrol and then right-click, I don't see why Attack Move has to do that for us, considering Attack Move is all about standing your ground next to an opponent when you see them and just attacking them to no end.

DTDominion : it could be that turrets aren't detectors anymore, but just what they're supposed to be : AA turrets. Perhaps Blizzard wants to remove the quite imba scan and let Terrans have their own detector specitif strenght and weakness.
And radar domes are not C&C specific but a quite obvious military structure in any modern army. The way they seems to function reminds me rather of total annihilation if you absolutly want a rippoff source. This will provide information on the minimap, on a yet unknown scale, the fow is still here and you'd have to go see yourself to identify units. And we don't know of science vessels... terrans don't have invisible observers nor (maybe) cheap overlords everywhere. Making the race differents means that each one may have strenghts that appear quite unfair in reguard to the others. Like zerg could produce all from the same building... sounds unfair... works as intended. So for one, if scan is removed, I'd say radar may fit the Terran strenght and weakness board.
Same for the rest. BC with injections will make them more a threat by themselves, and BC are not anymore in the BW universe. Now they face warprays, designed to take them down. They'll have to face yet unknown creatures from the swarm. Terrans cannot use tank to hold off immortals, I have the feeling Blizzard aims for effective and threatening air to ground, because mutalisk aside air warfare was only an option in stalemate/long battles.
Uhm yeah so instead of having the 'imbalanced' (I don't think it is) scan you want to have a radar dome that makes you impervious to any kind of surprise attack.
Then you talk about the science vessel possibly being removed, meaning that either they get a new detection unit (I don't see why you'd remove the science vessel only to replace it with some new detection unit, they are pretty cool), the Radar Dome detects invisible units all over the map (loooooool) or they still have scan in addition to their radar domes.
If the radar dome does not detect invisible units all over the map vessels will have to become a lot more low tech or terran will be stuck in base forever, assuming no scan. I really don't see a single good reason for removing the scan and adding in something like the radar dome.
Yes, the radar dome sounds cool, real military have radar, it's fun etcetc, but until they tell me exactly how it works I'm gonna be very sceptical cause from what they have told us so far (about this particular unit) I have every reason to be.
In conclusion; I think the scanner allowed terran to actually leave their base before being high tech and added a unique feature to the race. I don't like the idea of a radar dome, limited in its area of detection or otherwise. I liked it in TA, and it sounds cool, but then I stop and think about how 'fun' it will be when terran sees a huge drop coming from several screens away and moves all his units back to base.
Bleh. The system in SC worked exceptionally well and was fun, this is one of those situations where you should just leave well enough alone IMO.

I'm mostly refering to the Japanese reaction to WWII. Whenever China and Korea bring up the abuses inflicted on them your country acts victimized. Whenever the anniversary of the atomic bombings comes around, it's basically an excuse to act victimized.
Honestly though, it wasn't meant to be taken seriously. It's not like I hate Japan or anything (I begged my parents to let me participate in a Japanese home stay program). And this isn't a politics thread, so if you want to reply use PM I guess.
EDIT: http://www.gaijinsmash.net/archives/taking_responsibility.phtml
More than anything I just find it funny that InRaged thinks I'm a whiner. Maybe the changes being introduced in SC2 just aren't very good?

DTDominion, you realise you have United States next to your name right?

great that means you should shut up about japan, imo

Dude if you want to lecture me do it over PM or something, jeeze.

DTDominion, I on my side don't find funny how you threw random generalization hurting not only me, but Japanese on this forum and doesn't even feel sorry for that

you called most of introduced changes useless, imbalanced and ripped of from c&c. You know, that's a very precise critique based on screenshots and rough captions for the game that doesn't stepped yet into balance correction phase.

Imprecise, but yet I haven't seen why I'm incorrect. FA has explained quite well why the Sensor Towers are a horrible idea. Anything else you'd like further explanation about?

I like how he thinks Japanese are particularly whiny while he wanted to move over there in a foreign exchange program.
The new radars could work exactly how the comsat worked with the addtion of detection around the building, just under the guise of a new name and not as an addon.

Wow, he made an inappropriate comment about the Japanese, BIG DEAL. TL.net is basically full of people going 'lol americans' everytime Bush opens his mouth..

Fair share would be an understatement. It feels like 99% of the whine-posts (not SC2 related) have the USA tag and the others in US hiding behind a foreign country tag.
Back to topic, I don't like the vulture replacement mainly because it takes away skill. I hope Blizzard meant that it has the ability to attack while moving with micro similar to Tanks.
