My personal favorite doesn't deviate away from the starcraft metagame too much it's team monobattles. There are DotA ripoffs and Diablo clones, rpgs, Civ clones, tower defense, counterstrike starcraft edition, etc. Don't believe me? Think I'm exaggerating? There have been first person shooter mods, albeit not very good, based on starcraft. If you get past the competitive metagame which is actually a professional sport, you can try out the custom games (they've done some spectacular things with starcraft). And by a lot I mean on average about 50% of your games. At the end of games it's customary to say gg (which means good game) but particularly troll'ish players, especially those who feel like they've been cheesed or hustled, will feed you a variant like "gg B-". Some examples of which consist of "man you f- noob i'm not playing with you no more". Don't get me wrong noob isn't intended to be insulting, but a lot of people will use it as so. If you aren't an instant starcraft genius the trek up the ranking ladder will be arduous and you will be frequently called "noob" (a term which means new player) and often it will have derogatory connotations to it. People with extremely sensitive feelings should steer away from multiplayer and multiplayer chat. The community is far better than Call of Duty's, partly because it's for PC users (which boasts a more mature fanbase, unsurprisingly) but still in some regards hostile. At least not if you're not really really good. Oh and don't try to out-muscle (out-macro) an insane AI. The game's appeal focuses mainly on its massive and competitive multiplayer community, the single player mode is just extremely limited. ![]() If you don't have a constant internet connection every time you want to play.well you're in for some disappointment.
