Have to log on to battlenet each time I want to play a bot match

What the fuck were they thinking? My favorite part about these old games is that I can play them whenever I want!

The best part is that before release they explicitly advertised Offline and LAN Play on their store page when the Pre-Order was up.
Once it came out, they snubbed those bits and now anyone that's pissed about being scammed with Pre-Order and not able to play Offline/LAN is basically told to fuck off and their refunds are being rejected.
Classic ActivisionJewzzard.

Did no one make save the page to archive.is

starcraft.com/en-gb/
No need, they STILL advertise Offline and LAN Play on their page for the game, just no longer on the actual STORE page.
This seriously begs for class action lawsuit but nobody has the balls to bother.

>2k minerals and 1k gas
>making wraiths in that fucking mission

Holy shit how can you be this bad.

Now I'm afraid if them remastering Warcraft. Bots and campaign are all I have left...

What's wrong with making Wraiths?

You use them to escort the dropships to the left most corner of the island.

>not having fun building new units

I bet you've never built a scout

No because they're shit and aren't in the build order meta, scrub

>install for Classic is 5.5 gigabytes because it downloads all the HD assets anyway
That is just a flagrant waste of bandwidth for everyone.

"Offline LAN and Campaign"

The way it's worded they could possible argue that although you need to log in to Battle.net to play the game, the actual mechanism for the LAN is offline and therefore valid advertisement.

The "and Campaign" also can be argued that it's not tied to the offline wording and that they are individually offering "Offline LAN" as well as a "Campaign".

select LAN

nobody has the balls to bother
Good fucking luck winning the case against copyzard.

The mechanism for LAN is not offline either. The game LITERALLY won't let you enter even the main menu without being logged in.

Class Action Lawsuits are won 90% of time in Europe, only Murrika is cucked.

>single-player mission
>build order meta

This doesn't mean the mechanism behind LAN is online..

LAN literally by definition is not online; just because you can't access it without being online doesn't mean that LAN itself is technically online.

Just so you know, such kike tactics would never fly in court with a tech savy attorney.

I will have to admit that legally I'm not an expert in the slightest - just knowing the tech myself I can personally see a valid argument if Blizzard were to argue what I'm trying to explain.

I would say that it would more so come down to whether it was deceitful or not, rather than them having to prove that LAN is indeed offline.

I agree that it's a fucking disaster and should be offline but oh well.

That's the thing, it's deceitful because that's not what consumers are used to when they hear "offline and lan".

>Playing single player like a little baby causal

But it works offline. source: i just tested that it works

No it doesn't, it immediately reverts to "Classic" if you try playing offline, losing all Remastered features.

What? You can make fucking custom bot games in single player.

Fucking idiot.

No he's right. Why would you do that

Classic or not, how did you do it?

Open Blizzard App Launcher
Turn off Internet
Press Play
It will just launch the FREEWARE classic version instead.

okay. sorry i only have classic. it worked fine offline

>select single player
>select custom game
Retard

Classic is FREEWARE you fucking idiot, that's why it works.
Remastered requires paying money so they made it always online DRM.

OP fell for the meme.

You paid $15 for an HD texture pack and to be locked to the blizzard spy app. This is basically a re skin. YOU PAID FOR A RESKIN!

it's the same game still and op didn't say anything about remastered and even the screenshot is from the "FREEWARE"

I didn't pay jack shit retard they updated both versions. Its the same game, remastered just unlocks the options.

it sometimes works offline, i was able to play hd offline.

not that i would never WANT to play HD graphics, but it's an option

Then just play it offline you fucking mong. You just have to pick the LAN option you autist.
Class action lawsuit for fucking what? You can't make an argument for fucking anything.

>Escort
You are just supposed to sneak them around. It isn't hard.

Why does the game keep going from old to new versions?

you have the pirates to thank for this
drm is going nowhere

it is if you're playing against jaedong

SO WHAT. You get to play the game. Is it because you want your PC to be offline while you play the game in HD?

FALSE ADVERTISING YOU KEK
EAT A BAG OF DICKS YOU SHILL
YES I EXPECT TO BE ABLE TO FUCKING PLAY OFFLINE WITH MY ROUTER UNPLUGGED

We all are.

i havent played sc in nearly a decade. what happened

Is there going to be a new Korea league? That flash JD match during the launch party was great

>lilsusie has joined the game
what do?

They released an official HD texture pack that requires more than 2.2GB of VRAM and adds always online DRM to the game.

No you can still play it offline LAN

No you can't with your router unplugged you cockmunching Blizzdrone.

id black that

>what is a crossover cable

Let me rephrase you fucking retard
COMPLETELY OFFLINE WITH NO NET CABLES OF ANY KIND ATTACHED

FUCKING

DIEEEE

thats pretty hilarious. im sure people will stick to the older patch and setup their own servers.

I don't know. In the system requirements it lists 512mb video cards as recommended. where's the 2.2gb of vram comes from? Just curious

>YOU CANT GET CANCER AND DIE
what did he mean by this?

I love the remaster, but holy shit is it scummy how they downgraded and pixelated the hell out of the regular bw graphics to make the new graphics look better.

Peak scum

>I don't know. In the system requirements it lists 512mb video cards as recommended. where's the 2.2gb of vram comes from? Just curious
Graphics Options -> Lighting
2.2GB VRAM for LIGHTING in a fucking 2D game when I can play SC2, with much more complex 3D visuals and lighting maxed out on a fucking 570 GTX with 1.3GB VRAM.
Really makes you fucking think doesn't it

So Blizzard managed to screw up this one too?

How's that even possible?

Did they actually do that? Are you sure it's not a resolution thing?

I'm not a third world peasant without internet, so I don't give a fuck about "always online." Is the game good though?

>Did they actually do that? Are you sure it's not a resolution thing?
SC1 used to have Blinear scaler for non-native resolution.
Now it uses Nearest Neighbour with sharpening to make it look more pixelated.

The game is officially free. Just pirate the original if you want to play offline

>underaged third world shitter hasn't played starcraft
like pottery

best game ever made

Oh I just fast forwarded to the bottom of the page like always didn't notice that

>Note: Use of the real-time lighting feature in StarCraft Remastered requires a graphics card with at least 2.2GB of Dedicated VRAM, and at least 3GB of system RAM.

Kinda want to test if this epic lightning works on my ancient 1gb vram card, but not going to buy anything just for that

>implying I waste my time with blizzshit

>>Kinda want to test if this epic lightning works on my ancient 1gb vram card, but not going to buy anything just for that
It literally won't even let you enable it, the setting is greyed out.

That's rad

the "epic lighting" looks horrible anyways.. it looks a jillion times better without it

Why not

Can you post comparison screens? Im curious how it looks.
