Warcraft 2 style layout for Starcraft Δ

[image loading]

Instead of the traditional 640x480 and the modern widescreen I'd prefer a 800x600 field of view's remastered equivalent. Perhaps a hotkeyed option to zoom-in lock to 640x.

Past gamestate reload Δ

Holds down rAlt while clicking on the timer in the lower right corner of the screen, dragging downward. The message: "Do you believe in time travel?" appears, along with pause and replay speed buttons and options to save or issue a request to revert to the gamestate. Releases the click and clicks play. Looks around the map. Adjusts the timer again. Clicks on issue request to ↑

Response to ↑ request pending..

Releases rAlt to resume live game state. Presses Enter and types..

>gg .. plz accept my request to *clicks "paste temporal locus link"* revert to the gamestate from 14:02 seconds in, 4 minutes and 20 seconds ago
gg.. Sure. Give me a minute to get reacquainted with it
>Oh you know what, I have to go do something. *right clicks link, clicks save* saving.. it for now and will hit u up l8r

Play multiple games simultaneously Δ

Switch between ongoing games (including temporal continuum branches of the same game) instantly the way one would with F2-4 locations.

Scheduled automation for resuming, starting, saving and branching-out of games Δ & scattering of team-melee player activity windows Δ

Proactively program the interplay of the features already mentioned in the OP, and additionally assign (kick in, fade out or switch - for example cycle within a regular interval) activity schedules for multiple team-melee (aka archon mode) games played simultaneously to specific players; the way one would use windows' task scheduler.

One could queue up players and establish their priorities to enter ongoing, self-perpetuating game clusters, the participation in which they weren't specifically scheduled for, too. An event such as the equivalent of a 24h LeMans race would be possible to organize and to follow through with easily, given enough players - who would tag-team switch from spectator to active player on demand.

Community live & pre-recorded audio streams with music, news and funny or interesting shows Δ

Players would listen to the same station live or synchronize in listening to a podcast which they download before or during (a) game(s). Same with building and unit response sounds. Making and exposing these should be easy, intuitive and on-the-fly, encouraging collaboration and rewarding quality and continuity.

Maps which make mind control standard for Protoss Δ

Place neutral drones and SCVs in such a way that Protoss is encouraged to develop Terran and Zerg buildings, units and their abilities for optimal play.

The thing about branching or playing multiple pages simultanously; maybe they could host the replay on github and let users do pull requests on it and create a single near infinite possibilities game?

The thing about getting a perfectly optimal mashup served on a silver-into-sound-synaesthesing platter by AI instantly [did ^ insert a semi-colon at h post's equivalent of this-point-o-mine.. could a reason be possibly deciphered?] is that I'm not going to bump a blog with it × 2 centerpiecing--just because how could it be superior to me outing this as ..Oh it's 16:20, noice!

..as something you REALLY don't want messed up once you listen to the beginning, and then it picks up at the previously protective-rendering zenith standard on the outzo, leaving us to ponder, upon me establishing the order of business to be filling the space between doggone perfection with ... something, what our take on it might post-format boil down proper to.
