however, i think this is one thing that wouldnt take anything away from hardcore players while giving a lot to beginning players and those who switch from sc2 etc. I think it's the opposite. It raises the barrier of entry by making you feel like you're playing sub-optimally before you've even gotten in the lobby. It's just tedious and annoying to figure that stuff out. The lowest barrier of entry is what they do now, just making the hotkey the first available letter in the name of the unit. That actually makes sense and is easy to learn except for a few weirdly named upgrades. | ||

I mean, I agree that they should stay as is(first letter in name of unit) since I always thought it was easier to remember if you think about it but if someone comes from let's say SCII where marines are A for ex and they change it, it would technically get them into the game faster, no? | ||

It slows down your templar production by so much. And I've seen professional terrans lose to zergling rushes because their marine spawned outside of their wall... It's bad. well, I was actually considering mid game or rather when you have like 4-5 gateways in your main so that one unit that gets killed won't end the game but ya, I can see why it would be problematic in that scenario. ya, true, I think I've seen this happen before as well. | ||

Other than that, I appreciate brood war for what it is and what it's always been: the best RTS game ever (not aiming to point this in any sort of debate; it's merely my opinion). Long live BW~ | ||

starbow is a different game with different units. Your statement is nonsensical and off-topic. On January 22 2014 04:39 Chef wrote: I think it's the opposite.

That actually makes sense and is easy to learn except for a few weirdly named upgrades. having all of the hotkeys on the left side of the keyboard isnt sub-optimal, in fact, its the optimal way to play. New players will have to learn the hokeys regardless which letter you choose. While having "m" instead of "a" to make a Marine might have more sense, i guarantee you it wouldnt make a difference to you after a couple of games, while on the other hand it might help with stopping the carpal tunnel syndrome | ||

I don't want to learn 2 sets of hotkeys switching back from SC2 to BW and vice versa, it would have been nice to just be able to set the hotkeys. Set SC2 hotkeys to be the same as BW  | ||

The approach that id Software took was releasing the source code to just the Quake engines, but not releasing the full game such as the single-player maps. That way there's still at least some incentive to purchase the full game, but the community is also able to benefit freely from community-provided upgrades to games that would otherwise be considered long-since deprecated and superseded by newer games. Anyone remember changing their .pak files? Custom models, map textures, HUDs, and sounds that are all interchangeable and customizable, and being able to mix and match from different sets to suit your preferences. Ahh, carriers with flame decals and siege tanks with targets painted on them, or the casting sound for each plague being changed to "PLAGUUU." Not that that would ever happen, of course. | ||
