also this guy just sits in his base chain-selecting his harvesters over and over at the beginning of the game. Does this serve some kind of purpose or is the game so boring that you literally have to waste APM on that?

in other RTS you can at least spend your idle early-game moments spectating over the fog of war, and hear enemy footsteps etc, rather than being relegated to autistic nailbiting ingame...

The useless actions do serve a purpose for good players, they spam actions to keep their APM up so that they don't have to speed up and slow down as they play. And in a real SC2 match you would be fucked if you spent your time hovering over the map listening for footsteps.

Still sounds awful. A good competitive game punishes you for making unnecessary actions - not rewards.

Fair enough - we'll chalk this guy's idle time up to lack of skill. I suspected this was more akin to a bad player quickswitching constantly in CS or something anyway.

- clicking stuff
- stupid music
- how company of heroes is a superior game because you dont click stuff
- sim city (I love Sim City btw)
- watching the fog of war listening to footsteps
