Um ... I think you mean who plays Melee/TvB/etc. etc.
A lot of people do. UMS maps are pretty fun, but so are regular (trigger-less) maps. It just depends on what you're into. Diplomacy is ... lame. =P |

Nice. I'll see if I can get my desktop setup to play. It was fun to be playing during finals...

I have this game... I was pretty good, I could beat Clan members in 1 vs 2 matches (me being the 1), but I never joined one.
I preferred just to do bounds and fun maps right before I quit playing it a long time ago... Though, when Starcraft 2 comes out, I might buy that (depends on computer requirements).

I can only find the Broodwar CD, which really doesn't help me reinstall the game

Starcraft 2 is going to make the internet (or at least South Korea) explode.

I've never played a Craft game (or RTS game for that matter) my entire life. However, seeing Starcraft 2 made me want to plat Starcraft now. Is it for free now or what?

I haven't really played another person except twice at a LAN...And those were the first time I played. First time, I got raped horribly. Second time, I raped the **** out of everyone. Now it's just my friend and I against computers without rushing.
I play Fastest maps. Never played/heard of a BGH-type map. Quote:

What do you mean by "fastest" map? Please tell me this isn't some new term for mega-money maps or anything.
Also, BGH-type references 'Big Game Hunters' one of the more common map choices for online play along with 'Lost Temple' it's like the Dust2 of the starcraft world. |

Fastest as in 50 mineral fields stacked on top of each other to look like only 1 mineral field and using an advanced Starcraft editor to make the Command Center/Nexus/Hatchery RIGHT next to the mineral stack. Therefore, Up to 50 drones/SCVs/probes can mine at what LOOKS like 1 stack at once and the mineral gain is increased significantly since the miners don't have to move a certain distance.
Pretty much same with gas, except only anywhere from 6-12 geysers (depends on the version of the map). It's fully named "Fastest Map Possible" for up to 8 players. |

Fastest... xD
I don't go on SC anymore (well, BW), at least too much. Well, even if I did, I wouldn't play at fastest... sorry. >:P [Edit] Ah, so dumb. BlademasterX is my screen name.

The graphics look a lot greater than you're saying they're going to be fido. =P
I mean ... they look pretty dang good. But then again, that demo and all those videos might be just to sell the game ... xD |

Fastest maps are maps made using a hacked editor to stack 50 minerals on top of each other right next to your starting building, making money income VERY fast.
BGH (Big Game Hunters) is the most popular map in Starcraft, featuring next to limitless money, but nowhere near as fast as a "fastest" map. UMS (Use Map Settings) has some fun games... Pretty much all of those maps are "for fun" maps, and aren't really considered "skillful"... you pretty much mass your army, and whoever gets a strategic hit in first wins. If you really wanna become "good", you should play maps like Lost Temple, Luna, and other WGT maps... that's where the real Starcraft begins. Screen name is SOS-Bam (On USEast) if you wanna add me... I'm on right now. |

That's pretty inaccurate Bam. Sure, most (or close to all) UMS maps have nothing to do with regular map skill (Phantom could be one), but a lot of them are tests of different kinds of skill. Like I guess those "Dodge the Rapist" games are to test your reaction time and such, while others like Defense games are to test how strategically you can place units/defensive buildings.
