Still haven't bought it. Not sure why though. I might buy it but I'm not 100% convinced yet.

I've never enjoyed RTSes. Too many of them focus on micromanagement instead of strategic combat. If it were the other way around, I'd be obsessed.

How is the world editor thingy? Is it anything like Warcraft III's?
So it isn't just a generator that seeds a map for you.

I wonder if the map maker is anything like W3's... which I liked since you could make somewhat custom things.

So far, Ive spent 98% of the time playing campaign mode and ulocking acheivments.
I havent even checked the editor. I played some random map against AI. The new units are rad.
As for micromanagement, it has nothing more intricate then part 1 (vespene, minerals, research).
The new Terran units are radsauce though

you totally need a few days when you get this.

also: level editor seems pretty much just like Warcraft 3, but with some extra features, on account of the whole thing being in 3d and DX10

I really want to be excited about it. I really do. I just can't. I don't know why.

The only bad sides to map editing, or more custom content in general-
-Maps have a 2MB limit on their scripting. Not generally an issue, but it could be limiting on some more complex modifcations.
-All custom maps are moderated by Blizz, meaning you have to stick within their guidelines

[spoiler]Also the ending is horribly cheesy[/spoiler]

Still, I might get this when I have some money floating around.

I got it. It's fun.
Like Gemini I'm also enjoying the campaign and the CHEEVES. But I'm also playing custom games v computers with my bro.

TOO BAD ABOUT THAT REGION LOCKING. But down the line Aussies will at least be able to play with North Americans, so that's cool.

Is this as good as Red Alert 2? That's the only question I need to ask.
