I think what we are really trying to figure out is whether they should be instructional videos on how to play SC2, or how to watch SC2.

I'd certainly be down for the latter. I mean, it's pretty obvious what's going on (so far) in the single player videos, but whenever I try to watch multiplayer I just see a bunch of pixel mans killing each other. Which can be fun, of course, but it'd probably be a lot more fun if I had any idea why people were doing things and what the units were good for and how some people are brilliant at stuff.

Smash and Grab, for a change of pace, and Stabilizer Medpacks because it seems pretty dang useful.

Weeellllll, if you've got a denser material for the bullet, then maybe you can have the same size casing with smaller bullets (with the same mass as the non-dense ones) and pack more propellant behind them? Same punch from the bullets, but more powder to launch them further.

Except that probably only justifies the added range, not the added damage. Oh well.

I wouldn't call them the worst. After all, they're not from Quebec :v:

I really do like how every single mission in this game is set up differently from all the others. Not just contextually, either, you have tangibly different goals and situations each time. It would have been so easy to just make it a "here's a new unit, use it in this mission" mission but they went the extra mile.

Yeah, it's pretty cool. Sometimes you have to make a lot of money while dealing with death floors, sometimes you have to alternate your strategy based on the day/night cycle, sometimes you have to go for specific resources. Pretty nifty! It's too bad that sometimes you have to guard an NPC convoy, but hey, that's and RTS staple, so even if it's lame it'll be in there.

Save the colony and use bullets to kill a bunch of shield mans.

I hate this mission and really want to hear the groans and sarcastic comments about this shlock

That sounds good, voting for this.
