Default Starcraft 2 Info

So, I've been tinkering with Starcraft for the past few days and absolutely love it. If you are also playing and would like to team up for a few games or play against each other, then add me! I'm still in practice league mode with 38 games left. My intention is to use them all up before diving into ranked matches.

I downloaded it Mal, but evidently my graphics card is too outdated. I'd love to play with you in a few weeks when I finally get it updated.

Kinda in the same boat. I put it on my WoW computer and it was waaaaaaaaaaaay to choppy to play. So I put it on my Vista, and now it lags to high heaven.

So unless I get a major graphics overhaul I'm stuck to single-player

Although the campaign makes up for that. Absolutely compelling and amazing campaign.

Even at this point, my single player lags like heck. Time for the upgrade I guess, here is to hoping that an upgrade to the graphics card is all I need :P

Aww sorry to hear that, DT. When my video card expired, I downgraded and picked up a decent card for 50-75 bucks. It was a short while ago and sadly my memory has retired to greener pastures so I don't remember exactly how much. It was certainly in that range.

Picked up Starcraft 2 for this weekend... and I'm really enjoying it! My RTS skills are VERY rusty though. I did some matches against the computer, and I'm kind of nervous to try my luck online yet.

I have to admit, I like what they've done with the campaign in this game so far. The missions are really varied, and you never know what's going to be coming next.

Soon as I work up the courage to try my luck against a human opponent, I'll post my info here
