StarCraft 2 'Exploit' - Zerg with Battlecruisers and Carriers

The team at StarCraft: IncGamers has made a video and an article, showing an "exploit" of the Zerg Infestor's ability "Neural Parasite".

It allows the Zerg player to use units of the other two races, dealing an attack with all top units, including Ultralisks, Battlecruisers, Carriers and a Mothership.

However, there's some labour involved in doing so.

I would not REALLY call this an exploit though.

I mean, it's very hard to pull!

DeepThought5553d ago

lol it's fun to see but I can't imagine it being used in a real game of sc2

Recka5553d ago

Although, to be fair, you could do it in SCI, just with Protoss instead of zerg :P

DJDarkstar5553d ago (Edited 5553d ago )

Very true, and I don't see this coming up in many real matches lol, again much the same as SC1

Cogo5553d ago

If you read the article, there is a way to use this against Zerg! :)

Altourus5553d ago

A) This isn't an exploit
B) It took him and hour and 20 minutes to do, Ive never had a game last longer then 25 minutes

The Maxx5553d ago

Big Deal. Couldn't the Protoss do this in Star Craft? I remember players asking their teammates for a SCV and a DRONE so that the Protoss player could control 3 FULL armies.

I am a Zerg player, so this sounds great. Before we could only take over the Terran HQ and pump out infested marines that explode on contact...

This is so much better.

ohhh, this looks interesting

Leord5553d ago

If anything, this is mainly done for the humour value. Very well done, I might add! :D

Cogo5553d ago

...even if you do say so yourself? :P

DeepThought5553d ago

yeah, if only there had been more left to kill! i half dead very easy AI doesn't pose much threat to that army!

Leord5553d ago

Lol, yes.

I mean...

"Don't come here with your semantics, space knight!" :)

'StarCraft: Remastered', 'StarCraft II' Now Available on PC Game Pass

This week, Blizzard Entertainment dropped both 'StarCraft: Remastered' and 'StarCraft II Campaign Collection' into PC Game Pass.

meganick196d ago

Hopefully these get released on Switch and Playstation, along with Age of Empires. There’s a severe lack of good RTS games on both those platforms.

waytoobad195d ago

if only they didn't raise the price 500% last year.

Let the COD on GamePass experiment begin!
I would think their quarterly revenue will take a hit compared to a year ago, but will maybe make up for it throughout the year as the monthly GP subs keep coming in

pwnmaster3000220d ago

Was up with call of duty man?
I downloaded cod on gamepass and for some reason I cannot access the game.

darthv72220d ago

just curious what version? There are some that you can pre-load, but they wont work until their release date later this month.

pwnmaster3000220d ago

I have to redownload it again for the 3rd time to check.
I ended up just deleting it to make room for other games after the second time.

It was on Xbox game pass, I didn’t know there was other versions. I just downloaded everything, but sadly I couldn’t even access the game. Maybe 3rd time the charm. I’ll download it again.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH220d ago

It’s not out yet man unless you’re talking about MW3.

pwnmaster3000220d ago

I’m talking about mw3. For some reason I could not get it to work.

just_looken220d ago

On xbox there is the last gen/current gen versions pc though you could also get a xbox version.

When that new forza first came out for one day they had the xbox version on the pc store i was like ? what it was odd.

On xbox you can easily download the one version of a game instead of the series version so you run into issues on your series console.

pwnmaster3000219d ago

Because a game won’t run after I download it??
Man your kids must hate your @ss if that’s how you think.

It's going to be very interesting to follow up on how the new entry of CoD will perform at the box office, player numbers and distribution of Xbox, PC and PS versions this year.

DivineHand125220d ago

I got excited thinking they ported StarCraft to consoles but it's just the PC version. Also, I thought Starcraft 2 was already free to play.

TheColbertinator220d ago

I'm certain it is going to be the Campaign Collection version.

$15 horse for WoW made more money than StarCraft 2: Wings of Liberty

Jason Hall, currently an indie developer and former Blizzard employee, has been sharing some really interesting stories from his long career in the industry for a while now. Some of them are truly insightful, while others may seem depressing.

I’m a little shocked that StarCraft 2: Wings of Liberty sold only around 6 million copies. The original StarCraft did over 11 million. Maybe Blizzard was too leisurely in releasing StarCraft 2? Starcraft 2 came out 12 years after it’s predecessor.

Plague-Doctor27555d ago (Edited 555d ago )

Im surprised too. Starcraft was still a huge name in 2010. It was kinda the only new RTS around and other genres like MOBAs hadn't really kicked off yet. I do remember at the time sentiment around the game was
pretty angry the game was being split into 3 but I doubt that would have impacted sales to that degree

Sciurus_vulgaris555d ago

For a long time I believed StarCraft II sold on par or better than its predecessor. There was so much hype for the game. Plus it had a pretty strong E-Sports scene for a few years.

Myself and half a dozen friends all bought StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty and played it religiously for a full year. While I bought the expansions, most of my friends did not. RPGs seem to be a generally low selling genre.

Nerdmaster555d ago

I'm not shocked at all. This was an early example of Blizzard being greedy. Instead of releasing a complete experience, splitting Starcraft 2 in 3 parts so it could make us purchase it 3 times if we wanted to know the whole story and play story mode with the other races.

Sciurus_vulgaris555d ago

I originally had that stance. However, Wings of Liberty, was just as long, if not longer than StarCraft 1. The expansions were of decent length too and added a good amount of additional content.

il-JumperMT555d ago

and people wonder why we are having mtx in everything. i blame the people who actual buy them.

Nerdmaster555d ago

It's interesting he used Brazil as an example of the importance of regional pricing. Nowadays many companies on Steam are setting their prices in Brazil as high as, if not more than, their price in USA. I simply refused to buy a few games when I noticed that's the case.

Extermin8or3_555d ago

This right here is the fucking problem.
