Interesting. I get the little icon that means I've posted in this thread, but my post is nowhere to be seen.
I suck at RTS games, but I still love Starcraft. It seems that you can't play against people from other regions, but if anyone wants to add me, I'm Pyro (#369)
Edit: Ok, apparently I posted here but it somehow didn't show up. Had to delete 2 other posts

Hmm, I'm starting to think about getting this. D: I've heard the single player is really good, so even if I'm not good at the game at least I could manage that.

What just happened?! Now I see my first post again
I fixed it for you, like I said.

Haha, when I couldn't see my first post, I wrote the same thing again. When I did that, I saw my first post, and had to delete it. The next day, you said that you fixed it, but that wasn't really fixing it
This is my first ever RTS, enjoying it so far. I don't know that I'll ever jump into multiplayer, as I like my dignity just the way it is. The single player's great, though, and I'm looking forward to the mods that come out of the community.
So I tried an AI game (I don't play online, and my connection has been acting up so much that it probably wouldn't sustain me through a whole game). And I'm really annoyed at how many units from the single player campaign are cut out of multiplayer completely. I understand that the game needs to be balanced, but come on now. They cut out medics! Why would you do that?
This leaves the multiplayer (at least on the Terran side) looking like an expansion pak because there just isn't that much new, and some of the new stuff is too specialized to really be useful (Hellions). There should at least be the option to use some of the units from the single-player campaign in multiplayer games. Just make sure they don't count on the ladder.

The medic is now combined with the drop ship, to form the medivac

Yes, I know about that, but it's a really unsatisfying substitute. It's far less efficient than the medic for three reasons:
1. It's more expensive, and sometimes you just don't need a dropship when all you want is a medic.
2. It's harder to keep the medevac close to your marines. The auto-heal doesn't seem quite as intelligent as it is for medics, and since the medevac hovers over marines, it's harder for you to micromanage marines.
3. It's much easier for the enemy to kill compared to the medic because it doesn't stay as far behind the line and it's big.
