I played my first MP game last night, and received a complete and utter tonking.

I think I lasted 7 minutes

Clearly, this game will take some time to master.

To be fair mate the MP beta was on going for ever and a day and there are a few rushers out there!

I would suggest watching some tutorials on youtube. There are zillion different tactics , all depending on what the enemy is and which tactic he is using. So you need to know the basis and then keep going. No point on trying alone
Remember some people have played that game for like over 10 years.

I would say that start with this series: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92Rv-s-7rNk

Note: It has many episodes and is starts from the very basis and continueto advanced level.

Having played a few more MP games, I remain distinctly un-impressed with it.

The game feels old, and uninspired. Tactics are based around who can build the quickest, and in the correct order - I'm used to playing games like Company Of Heroes where units have to be used a bit more intelligently. Alongside that, SC2 feels very basic.

Also, why are most of the SP units missing from MP? No Firebats or Goliaths, what's up with that?

It's a shame really, because the SP campaign feels so well designed and fleshed out and the MP lets it down imo.

As I said, watch the instructional videos. It is not about who can build the quickest. There are a lot of tactics that you need know in order to win.

And I bet the missing units can be explained with balancing issues, they spend loads of time on balancing the units in beta.

Also my char is Lexander and 595 would be the code.

I'm not gonna start with human MP yet, I'm creating my own games vs very hard pc.
I just did the hard FFA yesterday, and almost managed a 4vs1 (4 medium vs me). The insane is a bit to insane for me, But I wanna be able to beat it nonetheless

Personally I've found the single player to be decent, have good variation in its missions, and be very nicely polished. However this said, it's nothing ground breaking and does nothing new.

The multiplayer however was a complete let down for me. It feels very one dimensional, and from what I've seen there are few ways to anything 'clever'.
