Good times I'm going to do all 25 + core contingency missions as well.

I'm going to use a studio mic next time. My headset mic is tinny


Sidenote: How do you turn on healthbars?

your mic was toping out, you need to adjust the boost.

also I felt +7 was better than +10

I'm just gonna use the studio one next time. It's kind of annoying because then I have a big base in front of my kb and I have to work around it, but it's not so bad.

Love the quality, good stuff!

btw always have you scoreboard up. so you can talk about how bad/good you are doing and don't forget about the unit info key, it lets you show whateve unit you are talking about a bit better.

I'm so rusty, I have no idea how to pull up either of those O_o

I have my commander pack cd's, but the manual is long gone.

Halp?

F1 for unit info and space was it? tab? for score

You had the full narration: when I played the campaigns I had 128 Mb of memory, so I didn't get it working. Also don't remember those victory pictures.

Btw, I always played a speed 1.0. Why is it too slow for you?

Compare OTA speed with rts games today. It's like watching paint dry and it isn't fun to watch at all. At +10 speed, the game gets a whole lot more interesting.

Gotta agree with this. Maybe one of the reasons there's such a big skill margin in games like SC2 compared to OTA/Spring Games is because of the game speed. Never really took it into account before.

You seem to be omitting quite a few Spring games, then.

fyi starcraft 1/warcraft 3 was always played at 'fastest level' iirc

Nostalgia. I always played on -10 speed to watch and micro each of my tiny bots movements. I don't really like -craft strategy.

Speaking of watching paint dry... sc2 is always played on "Faster", but go try to play it on "Normal". You'll rip your eyeballs out.

TotalA online game were always played at normal speed.

Go play some online TotalA game, you and watchers would learn more.

I played TA for many many years. I've "learned" all I care to learn. The game is slow as shit, tis a fact.

CGG: Capture Galactic Gate

That you say the game is slow as shit makes me believe you played only missions and skirmishes.

Which means for all the years you played, you're still newb.

I played online for years. Go away.

What was your nick back then? Were you also at +10 in online multiplayer?
