Anybody played it? Was my first experience with online gaming (I had a 56k then).

The online UMS (User Map Settings) Maps kick ass!

Mine was DX. I'm soon getting Battlefield 2 on Live.
A CNN reporter, while interviewing a Marine Sniper, asked. "What do you feel when you shoot a terrorist?"
The Marine shrugged and replied, "Recoil."

When you have a full on Zergling rush heading your way, no, not really...

A Zealot rush is hard to stop, yes, but they suck at defense...

Dragoons pwn. Make like 15 of those babies and you can take down anything.

Interceptors are annoying though.

I prefer to play defence, so the protoss, while a great race, aren't my fav.

Terran are more my fav, but it also depends on the situation. Nothing worse then having your Battleship taken down by those damn living warhead thingies...

Terrans combination of defense units are what make them excellent at it

Problem is that it consumes alot of unit space

I started off liking Terran cause of course they are human but when you understand Zerg its easy, like at the main base spawning most of your stuff. Only problem is protoss can just own zerg with their sheilds.

I used to OWN at Snipers (a UMS map). That map really makes you aware of tiny idiosyncracies in the game.

Those 'waves' ones were cool, you would either have snipers or build turrets, you'd have like 50 lives or something and shoot down the waves

Sounds a bit like the MP game where you have 5 different people, and you had zergs that would try and get to certian areas. If you got in their way, and stopped their movement, they would own you, as they were Zergs on drugs, the trick was to funnel them into death corridors, and upgrade, upgrade, upgrade!

In the new patch they stopped that "light" feature, where in a UMS map you could "turn off the lights" and built like loads of turrets or cannons on top of each other in a short period of time.
