Subject: Help for a noob?


Hi PC players,

after watching some MLG SC2 and then playing the demo, i decided to invest in downloading this game,

It is currently downloading which is taking a ridiculous amount of time,

but once its done, i'd love to play with some people here from FN...
1) to give me some guidance,
2) to have some fun

Im not a complete idiot and after the demo, mastered beating the computer on medium while using 'terrian' (sorry i cant remember what they were called) and I cant wait to get better and better at this game,

This will be my first proper computer game in ages, so i look forward to it, hopefully my crappy laptop will be able to run it lol

So ye, whos up for it... post below, I may need some guidance on how to make/join private games lol

Thanks

shaft@claneat.com is my real ID, my ID is vVvShaft.

Drop by channels vVv and Clan EAT some time. People will be willing to help you out. My recommendation right now is to pick a race, and learn all the units for every race. Just enough so you know what they all do, you don't have to know counters.

If you pick Zerg, I just finished a book on how to play Zerg for noobies you could check out. It's 15$ a copy, though. I'm also a coach, though I do free coaching whenever I find time. Working two jobs plus college plus spending time with my girlfriend, there's not much of that left. But I do what I can.

Anyway, find yourself a build order for whichever race you commit to, and use it til you know it in and out, backwards and forwards.

Yeah, battlenet is set up that there is a North America version (they call it USA since they think North America is the US and they forget about Canada and Mexico) and there is a Eruo Battle net.

So for ladders in the game, it is all based on people in your region. If you were to play outside your region you would notice a lot of lag time during matches, so Blizzard made it simple as they could. THey have the numbers to do this. Games with far less people playing cant do this.
