I'm trying to limit myself to 1 mission a night. And it's going well.
I started to play at hard, and realized it was a bit too hard for my casual gameplay (It seems you cannot slow the game down in order to queue multiple orders). I can usualy pass the mission at hard with 3-4 reloads or at normal on the first try (or second in order to get all the objectives.) I'll check my batlenet details tonight ( I don't remember what I put there), but it is likely I'll play in the US server since I have the English version of the game.

English game in Canada is on US servers afaik, so we have to wait.
I finished all campaign missions on normal except the last one. Waiting to do that because of a bug in achievement counting for hard and brutal missions. Currently redoing missions in hard and brutal mode and to get all mission achievements. About 50% done in hard & 33% in brutal.

So nobody new was tempted to jump on SC2 bandwagon??
Currently the end of the 1st ladder season is nearing and I'm struggling in silver league in most categories, except for 4v4 where the game deemed me worthy of platinum, it's a mystery to me. Haven't played a lot of ladder games though so that prolly explains. Spent a lot of time in practice league. Still the game comes highly recommended. The level of the players is generally very high and competitive and it's good fun.

I did finish the single player mode, for some reason (time mostly) I have not played multiplayer.

Tempted a lot, but I'm keeping away from it. Competitive TF2 takes most of my time, and although I liked SC1 a lot I know that SC2 is not different in the aspect that I didn't like: compulsive build orders in multiplayer. And I'm playing Shogun2 now.

There's variety in build orders. And especially on the lower levels (where your truly operates) it isn't that bad.

Thesis first, SC2 later. It'll only feel better when I get it - cough and be patched better too cough.

I think Bliz is pretty good with it's patches. Game balance is quite good imo, maybe some nerfs maybe were a bit too much (reaper was nerfed to death) and the interface is constantly worked on. Major thing they dropped the ball on is the regional play thing. I still dont know why I can't play with US based gamers, except for commercial reasons ofc.

Well, we're in the same league as some russians, and it's impossible to kill their scouts because of terrible ping. And apparently there are a lot off russians...

Hardly see any Russians. I've seen a lot of French people and some quiete rude. Apparently being BM to foreigners carries over to the net
