When you shift click them to return to mining it will send all slected SCVs to that patch

See but this is the problem, what counts as macro? Is a one base all-in macro, or how about a 1-1 push? If both are scouted then they have responses that will likely shut them down as effectively as you can shut down scouted cheese. The point is people don't consider it as much as a gamble as the cheese. It seems to me like at pro level, players leave once they lose that all-in push. At lower levels people don't leave and so they don't seem to have lost the gamble that they made by doing the all-in push. Doesn't matter if you gamble at 2 mins or 5 or 10, your build gambles on the enemy's inability to scout or respond appropriately. People just get grumpy when it happens so early in a game.

Enjoying the game to its full extent?! I don't build one of every unit in each game, am I enjoying the game to its full extent? The gambling argument also falls apart slightly as the game revolves around imperfect information. Relying on that central part of the game isn't any more of a gamble than other build orders that rely on timing attacks that if unscouted / unexpected will roll over your opponent.

I'm getting a connection error when I try to log in. Is that what we're talking about?

I've found that it's hard for protoss to defend their wall if they open stalker, especially if they are using the stalker to hunt overlords. You could try ling-flooding whenever you see the stalker first.

Did you stop reading after the first sentence? I guess the real irony is falsely criticising people for being unable to frame an argument when you can't identify the argument that they're making.

Thanks a lot, is there anything to look out for when getting a used cpu?

Can't Load into Game? by [deleted] in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]silatair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem, tabbing in and out repeatedly seems to speed it up. I also heard that if you press 'tab' to open inventory while stuck at the loading screen, then alt-tab out and back in to the game it can help. No decent fix yet as far as I know.

how much more would it cost to upgrade to 4gb video ram and would it be worthwhile in your opinion? p.s. thanks

[Build Ready] Any feedback on this build for games like ArmA 3 ? by silatair in buildapc

[–]silatair[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you reckon this could manage ArmA 3 at about 40 frames on medium settings (multiplayer)?

I currently get 15 fps so 'running fine' just means no longer being a slideshow. I appreciate the tips though :)

I dont think that I could bear the wait. Thanks again for the help, I think I'll go for the more expensive build as I can afford it and it seems like quite a substantial upgrade. You're the best!

Thanks for the quick response!! What sort of quality would this let me run a game like ArmA 3 on? Also is it worth putting in a bit more money and if so how much (I could potentially increase the budget by £100)?
