Product Information. Warcraft II: Battle.net Edition is the latest installment (circa 1999) in the epic struggle of Human vs.
You play either side and develop enough resources to support a conquering army. Build farms to feed workers and troops, then harvest gold and wood to make military units like Footmen, Archers and Ballistas. In this strategy game, play focuses on resource-management rather than pure combat games such as Myth or Close Combat. Combat in WarCraft II basically revolves around producing more units than your enemy and features in-depth single-player action. There are several campaigns from which to choose and you can customize your own scenarios.
The main feature of WarCraft II: Battle.net Edition, however, is the online system that provides a source of competition with players from all over the world. The game comes loaded with dozens of maps and scenarios for use when you log onto the Internet and do battle with other players. This source of challenge is designed to keep the game constantly fresh and new.
This edition of WarCraft II franchise includes the capability to use naval warfare. Build tankers, drill for oil and build refineries so you can launch a flotilla of dreaded battleships and transports for amphibious invasions of your mortal enemy.
Airborne units add another level of complexity, whether they be weaponless scout balloons, the Orc's Dragons or the Human's Griffons. WarCraft II: Battle.net Edition adds some troop control features such as unit grouping and toggling from one unit or group to the next. This helps with control of players' units, especially when the action involves large numbers of units. A game of the ages. I purchased Warcraft 2 back in the late 90's after seeing a friend play the original Warcraft.
Since then it's evolved into one of the few titles that one just cannot stay away from. Sure I might put it away in the drawer for a few months, but I always find my way back to it. It's relatively addicting.
War2 comes with a mission editor to create your own maps or you can play the built in maps that come with the CD. The war2 community is basically split amongst the 'custom players' and the 'BNE (battle.net edition) players' - each having their own claim to being #1 somehow or another. One of the greatest things about war2 is that there is always someone better than you. Each map has it's own strategy and keys to victory. Some custom maps have been adopted as 'official' I guess one could a rgue.
Although there are probably hundreds of variations of the similar setup. For instance $$$BGH(2hf)$$$$ (Big Game Hunters 2 have fun) is a map with no rules, each player having equal and practically unlimited resources (assuming you have enough peons to gather the gold/lumber). That is widely adopted as a 'pro' map because it takes many different forms of attacking to defeat the foe (Land, Air, Magic, Demolition, etc). Other maps are much more 'newb' and simple or easy to play. Nevertheless each warcraft 2 player usually has a good time playing the respective maps of his/her choice. If you login to battle.net right now there's still hundreds of players playing original and custom maps every single evening.
Definitely a game of the ages - still alive a decade after it's release. Not many others can boast such a feat. If any at all.
Classic Warcraft w/ internet play Warcraft II is a classic game from my younger years. I played the game for many hours against the computer and against my friends. We would play each other via modems. This did limit us to just two players. However, with the Battle.net edition up to 8 players can enjoy game play over the internet.
The only problem I have encountered is internet connections with high latency problems which Battle.net gives an error to. Another nice treat is that both original Warcraft II Tides of Darkness & the expansion Beyond the Dark Portal campaigns are included in the Battle.net Edition. Basically a two for one deal. Besides these new features and a few bugs they cleaned up in this edition it is just the same old Warcraft that brings back good memories.
Vintage DOS to Windows/Internet Game-Super Cool! To be honest, I haven't played this a whole lot. I've been working over Warcraft I on my way to Warcraft II before I really delve into Warcraft II: Battle.net Edition. However, I'm thoroughly enjoying tinkering with the BNE. Executing DOS commands for Warcraft I and II takes me back to the Windows for Workgroups 3.11 running over MS-DOS 6.22!
The BNE improves on that concept only in so far as it allows for one of the earliest, GUI-based MMORPG games. If you want to experience World of Warcraft without the $15/month cost or all of the other details of WoW, Warcraft II: BNE is for you. It has excellent game play so long as you remember that this is a port from a DOS-based game designed for a lower quality of screen resolution. Also, this was a game that allowed for modem connectivity and 'home' networks. If you are into DOS commands, buy Warcraft I and II. To see how far the Blizzard software has come, purchase Warcraft III and the StarCraft I with expansion kit.
It'll be a great addition to anyone's PC game library. Warcraft II for PC - XP compatible Warcraft II is a classic game, often found on top 10 and top 100 lists of best (or most influential) games of all time. Finally a version has come out that is Windows XP compatible. The game can be found online for free if you look hard enough, but most folks don't have an OS that will handle a ten year old game. Arguably better than Warcraft III since the game requires the player to dominate land, sky and sea, this game was the blueprint upon which Warcraft III and Starcraft were built.
If you've never played this game, you owe it to yourself to try it. Warcraft II: Battle.net Edition love this old classic war game.
Wish there were more available. I don't really like the newer games with more of a first person view and I am not a big fan of the warcraft III series (They were prettier, but lack the personality of this game.) or World Of Warcraft.
I am an old style gamer and love the one player vs computer RPG's and stuff. This type of game is right up my alley. Highly Recommend this game for those that haven't tried it or are looking for the older style of game play.
