Played the first 5 missions last night. Story is trash (dialog, acting, chessy) but missions themselves are extremely fun and varied.

 

[AppleSmack]

Are infestors out of the game?

 

[celestial body]

Are infestors out of the game?

[Deadman]

[ghst]

Still there but fungal is a projectile now.

[sixghost]

Still there but fungal is a projectile now.

We don't exactly have a lot of tourney data to go with, but getting good fungals are still gamechangers, as the GSTL preseason tourney showed us. You just need to do more than rely purely on winfestors.

 

[ghst]

it's being used as a support unit now.

crazy, i know.

[Mr Swine]

WOOOHOOO! Logged in and ready to play campaign

 

[AppleSmack]

OMG I just saw the game between Flash and Life. FUCKING INSANITY! This is one of the best Starcraft 2 games of all time easily.

 

[celebi23]

My CE has shipped from Amazon Oh, I never finished the WOL campaign. Can that be selected from the HOTS main screen much like the original StarCraft campaign could be selected from the Brood War main screen?

So, is this an option?

Do you have a link, please?

 

[antitrop]

So, is this an option?

In the options menu, there is a drop down box to select 'Wings of Liberty' or 'Heart of the Swarm'. In the 'Gameplay' section, under 'Expansion Level'.

Do you have a link, please?

Thanks!

 

[Sibylus]

I don't understand what's going on on the launch stream. Countdown ended, WHAT HAPPEN

 

[AppleSmack]

You know, don't you guys think the Medivac is way too fast? It shouldn't outrun muta's like that.

Awesome! Thanks! Going to reinstall WOL now

 

[Ezio]

So I can't get that region change mentioned earlier in the thread to work at all. I was too tempted I had to try it. Is: C:\Program Files (x86)\StarCraft II considered the installation directory as mentioned? If so, it's not working for me

 

[Visualante2]

You know, don't you guys think the Medivac is way too fast? It shouldn't outrun muta's like that.

Then mutas are too fast also.

 

[ape2man]

Hey guys. You should watch these. I worked hard on them.

you made them? thanks man your awesome. really forgot about the story of SC1a

 

[Mr Swine]

Woohoo saw a Zerg lurker in the first level, that means that they are in the game! YEEEHAWW!!

 

[traveler]

Do I need to have WoL installed to play HoTs?

'fraid so

Thanks!

You're not just famous... you're Kotaku Famous!

 

[Visualante2]

Do I need to have WoL installed to play HoTs?

Please Note: Starcraft II: Heart of the Swarm is an expansion pack and requires Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty to be played.

'fraid so

 

[Mr Cola]

You're not just famous... you're Kotaku Famous!

[ShaneB]

Well I cracked and bought HotS. Guess I'll try and join some multi team GAF games and become cannon fodder

 

[J2d]

I got it! Got a poster and a T-shirt as well.

 

[Tacitus_]

Well you need to own Wings of Liberty, but the client is the same.

 

[Visualante2]

Well you need to own Wings of Liberty, but the client is the same.

So you just login to Battle.net and it okays the install? Damn.. wish I'd known that I would've gone to the launch. Oh well can get it tomorrow

 

[AdventureRacing]

At least zerg have mutas, try handling drops as protoss in the mid game :x.

[Deadman]

Polt is so awesome

 

[Paches]

Q: What do you want to do in Texas, Polt?

A: Wear a cowboy hat and ride a horse.

Goddamn it, does everyone think we are cowboys?

 

[MegaKungFuRadio]

Not sure how I feel about the "Have the non-English speaker do tongue twisters for our amusement" segment.

It's not like you guys ever really worked that hard to reverse the stereotype lol.

And I say that as your neighbor immediately north.

 

[Tacitus_]

Yeah,just launch the SC2 client and it'll get the expansion files.

 

[Xamdou]

I got it! Got a poster and a T-shirt as well.

Where did you get the tshirt a the poster?

 

[Vaporak]

WoL Terran music fits very well for the Polt in Texas segment.

 

[J2d]

Where did you get the tshirt a the poster?

Gamestop Sweden.

 

[Felix Lighter]

I haven't watched much Heart of the Swarm until now, I actually stopped watching SC2 just a few months ago as beta streams were getting big. I love the medivac improvements. I love to see crazy drop play.

Holy shit what a game. ZvT will always be the marquee sc2 matchup IMO

 

[AppleSmack]

Anyone got a link to Grubby vs Stephano?

 

[Felix Lighter]

How is ZvP lately? I really hated when it always seemed to come down to broodlords and motherships trying to hit a lucky vortex.
