HOW TO PLAY STARCRAFT FOR FREE FOR FREE
I appreciate companies giving these classic games a fresh coat of paint and when they release them for free it's like an early Christmas present. I really like that Blizzard is giving out the original StarCraft for free and if you want the updated Remastered edition you can get that and both versions will be compatible with each other in terms of multiplayer. The classic StarCraft game we all love is present and both StarCraft and Brood War campaigns are there for you to play. You can follow this guide to setup and play Starcraft. Not sure which but at some point it might be nice to get all classic Blizzard games in the modern client. Anyhow if you just woke up in the World of G, and don’t know how you can play this game online on LAN using a free VPN software Hamachi. That or Blizzard is saving a spot in the new client for StarCraft remastered. It's sad that StarCraft doesn't show up in the modern client but one reason why this might not happen is that classic games aren't compatible with newer and don't have features like cross game chat and the like.
Blizzard also wrapped the whole new StarCraft install process in a fancy new theme that looks a lot like their modern client. It's a nice touch and makes the whole new game build experience really solid and fresh. The game is presented in 4x3 and the games original low res art(by modern standards) is kept but doesn't seem to mess up your desktop by putting your computer in 640x480 resolution.
Many of the old problems with classic StarCraft have been fixed, like needing to tunnel ports to enable classic play and Blizzard also removed some strange networking options for multiplayer no one uses (like serial connections). If you are looking for a modern build of the classic game with a streamlined interface that works incredibly well on modern systems for free you should check this out. If you are looking for a version of StarCraft with updated visuals you might want to wait for StarCraft Remastered that is coming this summer. Recently I downloaded StarCraft on my PC and Mac and tried it out and put simply, Blizzard did an amazing job porting this classic game to modern systems. As part of the upcoming StarCraft remastered release Blizzard dropped an updated version of Classic StarCraft with revamped classic support, LAN play and a modern build that works on newer systems.
