I think you might've needed to use the harvest button (pickaxe icon) that the oil tanker had in order to gather the oil. And it would've been cool to hear the entire mission briefings, lol.
@@FlinnGaidin got it! For sure, I'll likely record a full playthrough of this alpha at some point in the near future, full briefings included 😎
@@mickcraftgaming Look forward to it 😉👍🏻
Great video, Mick!
Thank you! How is your Warcraft 1 playthrough going? I'll have the time to hop back in one of these days!
@ WCI is hard lol and suuuuuper slow I loved the addition of the +/- speed options though in your video, thought that was cool, is that in WCI as well?
@@ArchMagus1 I'm not sure if that works in Warcraft 1, but you can adjust the speed in the options menu. I typically play Warcraft 1 on the second fastest setting personally.
This is so cool! Dope find
I thought so too! A lot of interesting cut content and unexplored possibilities.
Oh man. I forgot just how CHUNKY those peasants were in WC2.
@@tarrker Warcraft peasants are BUILT
I bet they were thinking to give the peasants and peons upgradable shields
That would be cool! Could explain the positioning in the box too
Is there any way to play this? I remember getting this back in the day on a demo CD for a magazine all the way in Romania, half-way across the world. I'd love to play these missions.
@vazzeg yeah! There is a link in the video description to where you can download this on "BlizzardArchive" and then I used DOSBox to run the files.
did you even play the game??? you have to build derricks on actual oil
I did in this case, the alpha didn't have the oil sprite like we have in release
Good ol' days
Absolutely! 🔥
In terms of differences between Orc and Human: Elven rangers have a +3 damage upgrade while troll destroyers have passive healing and death knights outrange mages by 1 square (...not that their physical attacks really matter).
True, a lot of little differences!
You got a tick of oil at 4:47 so it seems it's happening automatically
Nice! I thought I saw it go up but I wasn't quite sure, very cool 🛢
@@mickcraftgaming Dumb me, I was actually looking at the ore, the oil didn't tick at all heh
@JN-hs5xl haha, the last time I played the alpha I feel like I got it working no problem. I'll figure it out.
Mining through the mountains? Wow. That'd make things a lot different. I think the Stronghold had a bit of a spire/spike thing sticking out from it that I don't remember in Warcraft 2. Or rather, it's a bit spikier.
Very different. And yes, I think you are right!
If ore eas added on release i wonder how the game maps would have been different from release
So much more space would be needed for resources, it would have been pretty crazy!
Ore resource could've been a good high tier structure quantity gate. Red team color is closer to StarCraft 1's Red than regular War 2 Orc Oil Platform is called Oil rig and has a different (cooler honestly) sprite The Foundry is on land and almost certainly was meant to be the blacksmith initially (since it looks like a black version of the War 1 Orcish black smith)
Agreed! Good insights, I didn't catch the foundry being on land - thanks for the comment and info!
That was pretty funny how the final Knight version just popped out for a comparison :D
@ReD-zc3uu ha, glad you liked it!
@@mickcraftgaming Of course I liked that! Also that peasant in the end lmao xDDD On a second thought - I wonder if Blizz wanted to make factions more different by changing HP... Perhaps they wanted to give humans more armor but less HP and more HP but less armor to Orcs (Just as it is in Warcraft 3) and possibly make an Ogre slower than a knight - since he has such huge HP buff over a knight. Though I have questions about the damage balancing... Perhaps that was way too complicated so they scrapped the idea after all :)
@@ReD-zc3uu yeah I'm guessing they struggled to make it feel fair and gave up haha
I can already see how that "accident" looked like. Blizzard rep on the phone: Hey we're sending you vertical slice of this most anticipated sequel of one of greatest game ever made! Gaming magazine rep: Cool! Blizzard rep on the phone: Just please don't include it on your demo disc it's still not final versio... Gaming magazine rep: <makes fake interference noises and hangs up> Blizzard rep on the phone: ...Hello? I guess they've sent it to people that write for IGN now.
Haha, without a doubt!
Huh Maybe someone can make a mod restoring some of these cut features
I think some of the Warcraft 2 mods out there add back in the rock mining! I'm not so sure about the find oil feature though.
@mickcraftgaming that find oil thing is pretty nifty, tho I think it should work as once to you touch it the oil pool sprite should appear
@matthewsteele99 yeah it's interesting that you have to pay attention to the minimap so much while using it
@@matthewsteele99 it's really cool but in lore-wise I don't know if it makes sense, excluding magic how do boats track down oil? I don't think they've evolved with technology to get to scanners or detectors, but Warcraft is FANTASY after all so it could work
Blizzard should have stuck with having differences to the units instead of mirroring their stats.
It definitely worked out well in StarCraft and Warcraft 3! I can see why they simplified things for time and balance sake though (although, they did leave in 300% damage bloodlust....)
Yup. They realized that mistake and made StarCraft, with that being basically an apology for the mirrored silliness.
I wonder how Ore would have changed the game, in stuff like AoE and EE you need to have about a 3rd or more of your population as Eco because of how many resources you need to collect, Warcraft is a bit easier since you only need to focus on 2 but having to add a third plus navy eco with Oil would have changed up the game alot
@@DCPTF2 honestly ore would've made sense because most if not all buildings are made of stone but with having oil though of being added ore would just be odd so understandable why they scrapped it
Definitely would be a lot more resource based decisions to make - it is interesting that Blizzard managed to keep the resource types low in every RTS they made.
@mickcraftgaming yeah, they got a pretty good two cost system like in Dawn of War
I'm not able to buy games so I gotta stick to good ol pirating but WC2 is an exception, cuz there's a free WC2 game that includes more multiplayer and competivity (I think so it's called War2Combat) anyways Ive been thinking of 100% Starcraft and WC2 and Happy 30th anniversary WC thanks for fulfilling part of my childhood🎉
Yeah War2Combat edition is a good way to play! StarCraft 1 and StarCraft 2 are both officially free from Blizzard now too. Enjoy!
I would like my pain to be mythic, but legendary works I guess
💯💯💯

It's a great game!

Hey, quite curious if you still play starcraft or you transitioned into only Warcraft cuz I started making some starcraft maps but plan to start all over, I'll try to see if I can make custom stuff but my overall question was if you still play starcraft ^^ (also happy birthday Warcraft and great video as always)
Oh absolutely! I love StarCraft, both 1 and 2! And thank you 😊
@@mickcraftgaming Good to know, I'll try making up some sort of script or something for the campaign thingy itself and make up some units (depents, i might just make variants of units) , ill try to be unique and not make the missions repetetive with no builds, timed, etc...
@@Nothing_646 that sounds awesome, I'm looking forward to playing it!
Catapults were power in wc1.
Absolutely! 🔥
One issue I noticed playing War1gus a while back is that the AI enemy never attacks you first. You can just sit in your base and tech up and then steamroll them. Have you seen this issue too? It sort of ruins the experience because one of the cool things about the original War1 is getting ready for the assault... and also getting assaulted by daemons which doesn't happen much with War1gus
I'll have to play some of those later missions again to see, the code can be modified theoretically
Were online matches available in Warcraft 1 back when it was released?
Yes they were! I never played one back then, but it was a built in feature. There was no matchmaking or anything and you had to know your opponents IP address to connect, so it would have primarily been for playing with a friend or family member.
Yes, it does work with the free version of SC2.
Thanks for the info! Good to know.
One wonders what Cult of the Damned brochures contain? 🤔😜
One of the lore mysteries that must be solved haha
