I think you need to make a new Profile. To change the name, not the image.

Windansea · 2010-07-27, 3:37 PM

How do I do that?

KikassAssassin · 2010-07-27, 3:40 PM

I don't think you can. You only get one profile per SC2 license, and I'm pretty sure there's currently no way to change the name once you've created it.

To change your profile image, while in the game go to Profile, and uh... it's somewhere under Rewards or something (at work currently so I can't check). You only get a few to choose from at the start, and you can earn more of them by doing achievements.

Windansea · 2010-07-27, 3:40 PM

Well I'm fine being Dude then haha

Mü0n · 2010-07-27, 3:40 PM

DUDE!

Windansea · 2010-07-27, 3:41 PM

Anytime I win a match someone can be like THAT FUCKING DUDE!!!

Nim · 2010-07-27, 3:45 PM

How's the AI in single player?

Nick · 2010-07-27, 3:47 PM

Can't wait for clan support ala Warcraft III...

The WCIII FO/PvP clan was hella fun

xtwarrior · 2010-07-27, 4:00 PM

I suck.
I can't remember how to bloody move over the map.
I can move by clicking in the minimap, but not with my mouse for some reason.

caldazar · 2010-07-27, 4:01 PM

Move your mouse to the edge of the screen? If it's super-slow, check your scroll speed in settings.

xtwarrior · 2010-07-27, 4:05 PM

...
how the...
erm...
thanks!

KikassAssassin · 2010-07-27, 4:08 PM

You can also use the arrow keys.

I move my screen with both methods depending on what I'm doing at the time. If I'm furiously clicking on things, I'll move the screen with the arrows, whereas if I'm furiously smashing hotkeys, I'll move the screen with my mouse.

Nim · 2010-07-27, 5:34 PM

Stims cost fewer credits than Combat Shield, lol.

caldazar · 2010-07-27, 5:45 PM

Lol, the god mode cheat is:

Honestly, who didn't see that coming?

The Adventurer · 2010-07-27, 6:33 PM

Welp. I was going Grocery shopping, and there's a Gamestop nextdoor. So I decide to pop into to see if they have any copies left. Its late afternoon on launch day, so I figure it unlikely, so I don't really expect to buy. I find out they have exactly one non-preorder copy left. I hmm-and-haw over it, and decided to buy. Trouble is, I don't have 60 bucks in my debit card account. I have to transfer a few bucks over from another joint account I have. So I get my cellphone out, and do that. In the 5 minutes that took they sold the last copy.

Shit. Guess I'm waiting on the Downloader and buying online after all.

Dragimlin · 2010-07-27, 6:40 PM

Jesus not playing since the beta has my build orders all fucked up. I lost to shitty cheese 3 games in a row already today.

Crimson · 2010-07-27, 6:50 PM

So I just bought my first video game since...uh...Wind Waker?

I played the hell out of Starcraft back in high school and was decent, but not amazing. My poor computer is choking a bit, but it seems to be running fine.

So.excited. Once I get some time last this week, I'd love to get into some b.net games with people.

Defeating cheese builds is the nicest feeling in this game, simply because of how the opponent rage quit 95% of the time.

Waywreth · 2010-07-27, 8:12 PM

Got my copy at the midnight release last night, was about 50 people in line, I was 20th and didn't preorder.

Was next to a Best Buy earlier this evening, so I swung in real quick just to see if they had any, and there at least 50 copies sitting on the display case right as you go in, they may have had more out back.

Game wise, so far I'm having fun in the single player campaign - but my favorite part of SC was always skirmish mode.

Jarp Habib · 2010-07-27, 8:58 PM

Ok, picked it up.

Campaign is amazing.

My wireless keyboard is causing some problem though, stutters and lags out. Had the same problem in the Beta.

Campaign is AMAZING. It's about as immersive as a decent RPG, and the upgrade choices are making me pull my hair out becaus I want them ALL.

Doc Stylo · 2010-07-27, 9:22 PM

If anyone is taking a break from the epic campaign, and wants to play some games, I'm listed as DocStylo.

How does it compare to the Dawn of War 2 campaign? I really liked the RPG elements relic put in their game and I was hoping blizzard would rip-off most of those as they were pretty cool to play with.

Crimson · 2010-07-27, 9:25 PM

holy crap. I can tell I'm going to be obsessed all over again.

just got my ass handed to me in some 2v2 matches with a friend, but it's coming back quickly.

i love you blizzard.

This makes me think : I reserved a spot in the OP for all the forumites that want their ID up there. You need to give your online name and number (viewable by clicking "add friend"). Just PM me with your info when you want it added!
