![]() ![]() This = upsetting.Įven in its current, go-online-and-get-instawhipped beta form, you can tell there's a brewing helpfulness. The Terran Ghosts can drop a dirty little nuke onto the enemy base, if you can stealth 'em close enough. This is one of those games where the idea of missing out on several months of practice time is many players' worst nightmare.) There has also been talk that the full version will include a raft of training to help ease relative newcomers into the very precise, entirely unforgiving world of StarCraft II multiplayer. That clearly won't be the case in the full, final game, but if you're thinking of dropping £300-odd on a beta key from eBay, know that's what you'll be getting. It's multiplayer only, with the only available AI so stupefying easy that you'd have a better chance of learning how to be good at this real-time strategy game if you played against a heroin-addled baboon. In its current beta form, StarCraft II isn't what you'd call accessible. Those guys, though? It is, as a man once sang to Rambo, a long road. I know I could, eventually, become at least capable at StarCraft. People who don't play strategy games online. Look pretty pathetic, don't I? Yeah, laugh at me, spit on me, say rude things about my mother.īut wait! Below that, there's a yawning expanse of people who are even worse at it. Then there are the ones who are competent at it.īelow that, somewhere in the giant mass further down this hierarchy, there's a tiny, microscopic dot that is me, and my current howling great lack of skill at StarCraft. Then there are those who are very, very good at it. Then there are the guys who are really, amazingly, incredibly good at it. So there, right at the top of this invisible pyramid I'm gesturing at, are the guys who play StarCraft competitively. ![]()
