A little about me... + Show Spoiler +While I don't intend to tell my life story here, I do want to include a little background about my podcasting history. I've run a WoW PvP podcast (oh no, my secrets out!) for two years coming up this June. ArenaCast did quite well for itself, building a community and peaking at around 12,000 weekly downloads on shows. As of late, my interest in the game has slowed down, and I've stopped doing it as my co-hosts bowed out one-by-one. Podcast Info I've decided to go ahead and do a podcast -- maybe weekly, maybe bi-weekly, or this may be the first and last episode -- for SC2. Right now its a developing project, so I'm just winging it and naming it State of the Game SC2 Beta Podcast. Keep in mind that I'm still working on molding the show. I'm more of a dive-right-in, fix-it-later type guy so that's what I plan on doing!
SotG 4.23.10 + Show Spoiler +The podcast has been added to iTunes and should show up in the next couple of hours. Show can now be downloaded below. We had a last second guest sub in but I think you guys will be happy with the two new guests. >>DOWNLOAD HERE<<>>Alternative Link<< (Filefront) A new week, a new podcast! Just not quite yet. We'll be recording later in the week most likely so I apologize for people clicking this and expecting a brand new cast, however, don't close the thread! We need user questions! The second week we skipped them altogether because of my poor planning. This week, that just won't do. So if you're interested in submitting a question to ask this weeks cast, simply respond to this post and include a bolded @Question tag before your question. Pretty simple! Below you can find more information about the podcast if you're a new listener and also links to our previous episodes. Also, this week we have a special treat for everyone: Nony!

sweet thanks, I always enjoy listening to these. can we get a daily
|
These are new to me ;o how did missed them. Consider that your show has one more viewer from now ;p
|
Wow, thanks. Always good for who can't play to get some more info. Helps to make the time pass less painfully...
|
oh my god what are the odds
I was just about to go to bed when I thought 'hey you know what, there hasnt been a sotg podcast in a while, lets check if there has been a new episode after such a long time.'
turns out the newest episode is just 50 minutes young and I should only have needed to check the TL sidebar :p
too bad jinro isnt there this time but I'm glad the rest of the crew stays the same. gonna fall asleep to day9s lovely voice now
|
Great! I can listen that at work tomorrow
|
whoa nice guests, I'm on this.
|
For those of you trying to download from the impurity link, it is maxed out right now. Try the file front link -- I won't be mad!
|
Great stuff JP, thanks again. This series is really interesting. I love the format.
|
Argh I just realized that I didn't change the skype settings on the other PC so you can here random Skype noises throughout the episode. I'll have this fixed for next episode (granted I remember, which I probably wont so this will become a familiar apology).
|
thank you for the new episode, downloading atm, and can't wait to listen to it ^^
|
Another entertaining cast.
I would like to say that TLOs comment about Ghosts vs Broodlords is actually a pretty good one. Ghosts are good mid-late vs Z since you can EMP Infestors and Snipe is good vs BLs as well.
|
Thank you so much for these
|
It brightens my way to work, ty
|
Really well made, was a pleasure to listen to it. Thanks and keep it up
|
Thanks for this, although what happened to assem? thought he was gonna be on this ep? Anyways, keep em coming please^^
|
Whats the deal with the MLG ladder you mentioned? More info please?
Great cast as always, thanks!
(Btw i'd really like to hear louder and artosis together in a future cast again )
|
5.3kb download speed... but I'm willing to wait :D

|
Man, all of these are soooo good :D I really enjoy TLO's commentary as well, it really seems like he just has a totally different perspective from everyone else.
|
I just finished EP 4, it was highly entertaining
I like the relaxed and joking atmosphere, I hope you do more and continue to diversify your guest appearances!
|
Will check it out when I get out of work, thanks!

I think Day[9] got something about the Thor mixed up though. He praises the new Thor for being able to kill workers faster now. The sad truth - if my math hasnt left me - is that the "new Thor" doesnt one-shot workers anymore after the damage has been reduced to 30 down from 45 before the patch. Even though the "theoretical DPS" is the same you waste 15-20 damage when you have to hit a worker twice for a total of 60 damage compared to one-shotting it with a single hit of 45 damage. So the workers, who are all 40-45 hp, are the one exception where more hits are actually worse.
As he said though: it was recorded in the morning ...
EDIT: Well it looks like my non-beta-player-logic proved to be wrong, so I have to withdraw the above comments.
|
Thors have 2 attacks and they aren't able to split them up so before they did 90 damage to workers and now they do 60 which is still enough.
|
Kooooolll yeah last minute..
|
"Do you feel like Scorpion ripped off his mask and blew flames at you?"
LOL

Dll'ing! loved the previous 3 :D

Ridiculous? No. Remember Zealots? This is all over the place.

|
I love it when you cast a pod. Keep up the good work.
|
They did rechange one thing in a later patch: Mind Control of Infestors could target air in the beginning of the beta already.
(Sorry if someone else already mentioned this, didn't read every single post!)

LOL hahahha I am so glad that someone caught that because I heard crickets chirping when I said it during the cast.
|
What? Who doesn't love Mortal Kombat?
|
Just listened to it, great once again. TLO is hilarious and so smart. Great job JP, you're doing great work for the community.
|
Really enjoy these, thanks.
|
|
those are some really interesting openings...

I liked the part where NonY scoffed at Avilo's Ghostmech Raven opening. Someone wreck him with it so he scoffs no more please!
|
lol, I really want to know what TLO said when JP asked him how he was preparing (despite saying he doesn't prepare for matches previously)
"We're just gonna act like that never happened." Classic!

really llike the podcasts. would be a bit better to have a player for each race tho so we get more "MAN THIS CHANGE IS SHIT!" reactions. :>
more plx ~

|
I love you Day[9]. Couldn't have responded to the Kespa question any better.
|
when they said that Blizzard hasn't changed patches back to how they were, that's not entirely true because they did change the whole eggs turning back into larvae thing. Other than that Blizzard fails in that area

Great episode, thanks. I hope Blizzard listen these podcasts !

yeah I hope that too
really good job JP I enjoy these a whole lot.
Btw. do I understand it correctly that day9 asked if blizzard ever just removed a change theyve done in a previous patch? Cause in that case I would mention that neural parasite was changed from 9 to 7 and then back to 9 again.
|
Thanks for the cast JP! (and thanks to all the guests as well )
|
You guys need to get TLO to do a Thor impression one of these days.
<3 Supcommers
|
i gotta say, the KESPA part(altough to short) was the best. A) its always fun when Day9 gets "serious" and also its nice to have a discussion about it, seeing as alot of people here are very curious about the whole situationen
hopefully you could have a longer talk about it(maybe next time?)
|
This cast was great. The last cast had my favorite line up. More Jinro please! I like his Terran insights.
|
really good podcast
i was just lamenting with someone how podcasts in general are pretty crappy... this is of surprisingly high quality -.-
|
Just finished listening to it on my way home from work, it was quite entertaining. You guys make traffic less boring!
|
Great episode. Thanks for getting rid of the annoying music in the end

it would be nice if you put what patchnotes were discussed...
|
These podcasts are fantastic. You absolutely couldn't get better guests then TLO, Nony, and day[9] either. Probably should have TLO talk first always though so he doesn't have to spend time correcting day every other question :x
|
suggestion: keep this down to 1 thread so you dont have to keep making them for new episodes?
and lol, blizz needs to stop patching the game after every podcast you guys do XD. Cant wait for the next one!
|
So quickly after this podcast comes out a new one is necessary! Patch 12 discussion gogo!
I'll say the obvious,
@Question roaches.... wtf?
|
So I listened to episode 4 on my morning commute. I got some weird, weird looks on the train when I cracked the biggest smile non-stop while listening to lots of tasty tasty Starcraft wisdom.
Even weirder was the look I got when I burst out laughing walking down the street when Day9 began talking about 250mm Ultralisks.
Keep it up guys, can't wait for the next.

Yo itsmeJP you stole my #1 2v2 spot
<-- Vautrin :D

I second that! Do we have a deadline? Do we have any kind of funky info? For example, what is Sean Plott doing right at this second? Is it gross? Is it still somehow cool? The questions abound, but the answers are sorely missing.
|
I'd love to listen to an ep without a patchdiscussion actually. Anyways, just finished ep4. I liked it, but please please remember to turn off the skype sounds.
|
WOW, no wonder TLO can play random on that highest level. His knowledge is kick ass, but now he just needs to up his PvP game
|
So it was just announced that Phase 1 of the SC2 Beta will be ending on May 31. Due to me having to travel starting next Tuesday and being gone till June 7, this week's Podcast will most likely be the last (unless I can cast next week from my friends house in California, might be possible). I'll let everyone know by the time we do the next podcast.
|
so, we're doing a recording of state of the game right now, if anyone has any user questions they want answered please PM me and i'll ask
|
Warning, pointless comment will follow.
Is it just me or does Nony's voice sound exactly like actor Zach Woods from The Office?
