Warcraft 2 Soundtrack (Human 5)

[spzoey]

Glorius!

[spzoey]

Beautiful!

[DNF2011]

@pbatsii: Myst III: Exile?

[ProtossHydralisk]

@DNF2011 Holy shit. Totally forgot about Myst.

[pbatsii]

As people say, this is one of the best soundtracks to a computer game ever. The other would be then the Heroes of Might and Magic III, the soundtrack to the The Elder Scrolls 4 : Oblivion and the russian game The Knight's Tale (as well its sequel The Armoured Princess). Would love to hear about other OSTs that I missed..

[SonOfLongBeach]

I remember when I was 7 years old and played the battle.net edition. i got it for xmas, looked at the cover and was like "pirates vs. goblins.. wtf?" and then I played it and was immediately sucked into the strategy genre. :D 12 years later, here I am playing WoW and enjoying the Blizzard experience. And it all started when my parents got me a random PC game from the discount cargo. :P

I'm sure we are all like "WTF?! Alterac betrayed us? D: No Wai!" when we first found out.

[CodeMedina]

the orks have stablished a base in the cost of alterac your mission is to... EPIC!!!!!! I MISS THAT!!!

[JamesDonnyT]

Your spies report that the Alliance has been betrayed. Lord Perenolde, sovereign ruler of Alterac, has been working with the Orcs since the beginning of the war.

[SODEMO2007]

Fuck you Sylvannas, I had a hard time building that town when I was a little kid! >:O

[halopwner179]

@SODEMO2007 ikr

[Isusovac1995]

for me BEST Human soundtrack in war II also with 6th (when alliance wins WG)

[willdbeast1]

@Isusovac1995

that's because it's such a rare treat for the alliance to get WG =P

[thedonoftrek]

@willdbeast1 Maybe on your server, it's the horde who hardly have it on Mannoroth...but enough about WoW. :P This is Warcraft 2's house!

[Isusovac1995]

for me BEST Human soundtrack in war II

[Kang5030]

4 people failed to raise an outpost in the Hillsbrad Foothills.

[TheEastWater]

This music is epic.

U cant say anymore just EPIC

[Nefus2]

So sucked that they removed ships from Warcraft 3

[ImMaxi]

@Nefus2 : Go play one of the various battleships mods ;-)

[gyppygirl2021]

There were a lot of things I didn't like about Warcraft 3, but removing ships was easily their biggest mistake. The game had its redeeming qualities, but just wasn't as good as its predecessors. XD

[Nefus2]

I´m so going to download this to my MP3!

[iamtheshim]

This is easily...EASILY...one of the best pieces of music EVER composed for ANY video game.

[kutrance]

totally agree wit u

i could listen 2 this all the freakin time

[kilovots]

@kutrance and iamtheshim: do you all or anybody know how I can get the soundtrack for WC2? I'd LOOOOOVE to have these songs on my MP3 player!!!!!

[kaylon99]

yes, it's pure epicness...glenn stafford is an absolute genious. if i were e filmmaker in hollywood, i'd hire him!!!

[Amerikaner25]

@iamtheshim agreed

[Nemesis0300]

@iamtheshim I love this game's music. But no man, no. There are full 100 people orchestras out there who compose for games, and they're NOT crappy ambience. Try Silent Hill 2's music for instance, 20 violins, 1 drummer, a few bells and keyboard/ synthesisers, and 1 lead electric guitar. Now if they played this, than we would all explode.

[romanov77]

Due to your position as regional commander of the southern defense forces, Lord Terenas commands that you raise an outpost in the Hillsbrad foothills.

[NetherDrakeye]

@romanov77

LMAO! i also remembered those lines aha

[plutarch78]

@romanov77 Too bad 15 years later Sylvannas destroys all your hard work with those plague vats (Cataclysm reference).

[SEGAClownboss]

The Cyrillic writings at the human briefing screen was awesome:

Тхе Орцич кхордес вере лед буи Огрим Доомхамер то конкуер тхе хуман ланд оф Лордаерон.

Анд со тхе баттле бегонс...

[QreepyBORIS]

Haha, what a goofy transliteration!

"The Orcish hordes were led by Ogrim Doomhammer to conquer the human land of Lordiron.

And so the battle begins..."

[NodDisciple1]

What does it say? :(

[nefariousD11]

Even elder races get tired of waiting...

[MarkPanghy]

brings back memories... :)

[Nirghall]

it's Tides of Darkness, not the expansion.

And yeah, it's briefing theme.

100%

[LotharStudios]

My life for Azeroth!

[Retiniano22]

beyond the dark gate maybe?

[SMRDcompany]

no this is tides of darkness, I remember it clearly! I even downloaded the game again, its goddamn epic. What happened to naval battles in Warcraft III?

[MarkPanghy]

War3 expansion have Naval battles, when u are with the night elves. but without the expansion u can make ships with editor

[SMRDcompany]

I know, but it's stupid as hell, you can't even build a shipyard, you have to find it in the map. lame....

[MarkPanghy]

yeah-.-

[grannyjone]

must agree the ships in frozen throne are dire compared to wc2

The battles are nowhere near as exciting and you have to find a neutral goblin shipyard and hire them. You dont even have to fight to defend your docks or oil platforms. Ships also come out instantly which doesnt feel right. The ships also dont have the same impression of power as they did in wc2. Really boring

[SODEMO2007]

I remember upgraded battleships and Juggernauts would fuck your shit up if you had buildings and units near the shore.

[grannyjone]

I remember battleships/juggernauts would kill just about any unit in one hit, maybe two hits to kill a destroyer or catapult. However they had to watch out for Deathknight's castingTornado's as they would fuck up any amount of ships near the coast.

[thebigdoubleu]

Not only that, there was basically no sea battles to really speak of in WC3.

WC3 and FT was way to focus on heroes.

[Duresthar]

Yeah it's a shame, the naval combat in WC2 was good. Battleships <3

[Araben13]

if u dont make your own map where u ad shipyards to every race builder, its easy rly.

But it still sucked without the oil.

[ghostriderblack89]

e du arab? :D

[Araben13]

nej, jag är svensk.

Är du ett spöke?

[ghostriderblack89]

varför heter du då araben? nej jag är inget spöke :D

[Araben13]

mitt vanliga nick var taget så jag drog till med nått bara.

[ghostriderblack89]

va e ditt vanliga nick då? :D

[usef0]

wow I played this game in windows 95

[grannyjone]

I think its the mission briefing music on the expansion

[grannyjone]

can anyone confirm?

[Orklord90]

yes, Its the mission briefing! for i got the Battle. net editon of Warcraft 2!

[zone93]

It's also in Warcraft 2 original dos game. I own it and it sounds just like that. But I gotta say I like dos version more x)

[irkiIIer]

that must b expansion
