piratebay it, if you dont want to buy it
You wouldnât steal a pyolonâŚ
I have to agree with this:
I was going to buy it, then I watched some of the cutscenes⌠I also heard the story was extremely cheesy, with only 4 missions that developed the plot. So, I guess Iâll just pirate it now.

Blizzard, I am disappoint.
You donât want to play it, so youâre going to pirate it? Uh huhâŚ
Whatâs ticking me off now is the lack of AA support for ATI cards. Wasnât Blizzard supposed to have some sort of partnership with ATI? Yet this happens. Actually, why is SC2 lacking built-in AA? Why are so many games made for PC still lacking built-in AA? Itâs not like no one cares about it⌠Anyways, hopefully itâll get resolved soon.
Other than that, Iâm already having a lot of fun with the trial. Itâs pretty much exactly what I was hoping Age of Empires 3 to be - very similar gameplay as the previous game but with better graphics.
STARWARS IS BETTER LOL
Starcraft 2 is good. All right. Certainly absorbingly well. The gameplay may be a decade, but it was balanced and set to a sharp point, before being wrapped in an intriguing story and the excellent campaign mode.
The deal with most games not having AA is that most games for PCs are console games ported to the PC, and console games donât support AA, afaik. Why SCII doesnât have it is beyond me, since itâs purely a PC game.
Because AA is shit and pointless (and has the biggest impact on performance of any other setting) and nobody notices it during gameplay, only when watching screenshots.
Really? I notice it all the time, especially if you play, say GTA IV and then play TF2. Different art styles, yes, but GTA IV is a game that really needs AA.
STOP MAKING POSTS I AGREE WITH, DAMMIT. I DONâT KNOW WHAT TO THINK OF YOU ANYMORE.
But seriously, AA is relatively pointless. Yay, the lines are EVER-SO-SLIGHTLY softened at the cost of 50fps. HOW AMAZING!! And thereâs literally no difference in the effect unless youâre looking between the most basic AA, or the most intensive AA. Everything in between looks identical.
I honestly canât tell the difference betwee AAx8 and no AA at 2560*1440⌠Only way to actually really notice is to take a screenshot and zoom in on an edge.
The only thing I notice is: 100-120 fps without AA, 20-30 fps with AAx8.
Iâve never had that big a performance hit. I can hit 180 fps on Source games maxed out in benchmarks and still get 60-70 fps with 8x MSAA.
Iâll check later when I get home what the performance hit is for TF2 in Windows (Radeon HD 4850, 512MB ) with everything maxed at native res.
That could also be the case, I have a MUCH smaller monitor than you, as well.
After playing games with AA on, I canât really go back to AA off. Exceptions are console games (duh), GTAIV and Crysis, those engines are just so fucking unoptimized, itâs not even funny, but at least theyâre not as bad as Saintâs Row 2 PC.
All SC2 cinemas and the log in screen make me sad that there is no AA.
The jaggies are killing me, and I thought something was wrong with my client when I loaded up the beta way back and couldnât find an AA option.
Also: lightning in this game is annoying as all hell because it looks just like a graphics card flicker.
âŚUnless it is a flicker and I just think itâs lightning.
You know you can force AA on the drivers right?
I canât even tell at 1024x768 unless I look really closely at a really sharp, contrasting edge and/or corner.
I run tf2 at 1920x1200 without AA and it looks fine, but my screenshots on the other handâŚ
