Title: Regarding Ship Upgrades
Post by: thechortler on August 08, 2003, 12:11:35 pm
I'm sure those who played SC1 remember how individual ships could be upgraded with individual packs--for example, in my experience if you stick a thruster artifact and a dynamo artifact on a Cruiser you get a darn good ship (maybe I'm just hung up on the humans).  Can you buy/find/steal the equipment to do this in SC2, or is this capacity reserved for the flagship and its swapout modules?  Sorry if this is a n00b question, but my search didn't find anything regarding this topic.

No. There are no such ship upgrade artifacts in SC2.

Yeah. I loved that part of SC1. Gawd. Putting thrusters on your Vux actually made them playable.

Then again, there was times when you're Chmmr would get a crew pod and it'd be a total waste. I always wished I could get the Chmmr to pass the upgrade to, say, yehat or whatever else.

Yeah. Nothing like that in SC2, tho.

GOB is a subgame of Timewarp in which you gain starbucks by blowing up the enemy, and can use those starbucks to upgrade your ship a la SC1, except with much more control.  Find the Rainbow Rift and win a prize!
