As I had mentioned in the blog before, I was having a hard time finding a solution. So, this weekend I grabbed my Alienware and went to my grandparents house. Hooked up my computer, turned it on, and connected to the internet.
While I opened StarCraft I was praying it would work. The first two patches went fine as they always did. It finally came down to the moment of truth where the patch would get stuck. Exactly at fifty-seven percent and at 2.4 mb. As soon as it passed the fifty-seven mark I knew that this was the solution to this problem.
I thought I would share this to everyone, because I know how frustrating it is when the game doesn't patch. Hope this works for everybody with this situation and happy hunting.
Here are the exact dirrections to follow:
1. Move your computer to a different location where internet is accesible.
2. Connect to the internet.
3. Open StarCraft and wait for the Patcher to open.
4. Let it stay there and finish patching the game (this may take a while).
5. Last, go back to your house and play StarCraft.
I have went online and tried to find solutions, but none of them have worked. Blizzard Entertainment should have found a solution a long time ago for this ridiculous problem. Apart that you can't play the game, it's a waste of money. There is only one solution i have found that I have not yet tried. This is to take your pc to a different location. Connect to a different wireless or internet connection than yours. Then wait and see if the game decides to patch, and finally play StarCraft.
If no solution is found Blizzard Entertainment should return the money to people that have bought StarCraft. It isn't fair to people who can't play and have paid the complete fee of the game. Hopefully very soon Blizzard Entertainment will find a solution to this problem. That way people can enjoy the game.
The ancient mysterious aliens called, Protoss, appeard in the Coprullu Sector long before the Terrans. They are pretty phanatical when it come to their ancient beliefs and have spent milleniums developing technology. Even with all this, it wasn't enough to stop the Zerg swarm from over-runing their home world of Ior. Many died defending it. Protoss are getting to the idea that they must adapt their way of life, if they want to survive the battle to come.
There aren't as many Protoss as there used to be. Don't let their numbers fool you though. They have some of the best, most efficient warriors around. It's not surprising for a small force of Protoss units to lay waste to a much larger army. This is because of their amazing technology and psionic powers. This is why the Protoss are not to messed with.
Terran's have been located in the Caprullu sector for years. When their ancestors crash landed there they only had two things in their mind. Which was technological advances and never give up. This didn't last long though, because of the Zerg invasion.
Many brave souls were lost during the conflict. In addition this a man named Mengsk founded the dominions. This army was supported by a government that ruled under tyranny and oppression. Although many Terrans bowed down to Mengsk some kept some pride and refused to join them. Some of them still believed that freedom was worth fighting for.The Terran army starts with the basic unit called the marines. This force is the front line-men that could face absolutely everything that encounters them.
To reinforce these units comes in the heavy marauders unleashing hell with their explosive shooting grenades.
In addition to this deadly unit combination comes in the reapers. A fast moving unit to harass workers collecting minerals to sustain an army in battle.
Apart from the deadly units, the Terran army has a small but deadly warrior called the Ghost. Instead of moving up and attacking the enemy dead on, the Ghost sneaks up and strikes with a deadly tactical nuke. Inflicting maximum pain on small and defenseless units.
