BW HD sounds better and better after Blizzard's inability to improve SC2 scene.

As long as it doesn't turn out like AOE2 HD.

I know the main feeling is to have no faith in Blizzard, and I completely understand that. SC2 is/was a disaster. That said, they nailed Overwatch and Hearthstone, so they're clearly capable of doing things the right way. I would hope they have the common sense to know that increasing the number of units per group would completely break the game, and I think they do. If they can manage to not break anything while also giving us a central server with LAN latency and auto matchmaking, that'd be incredible. Maybe I'm too optimistic for my own good, but I have faith that this will be a good thing.

What is the problem with SC2 again?


Like it or not, SC2 is getting crushed by its competitors in Dota, CS:GO and League. People will take some sort of perception of what being an RTS is and stick their heads in the sand, but the reality is that they're PC strategy games. They should be compared and held to the standard of the others. Along with that comes all the rampant imbalance, but people don't really take kindly to proof of that for whatever reason. I'm probably already going to get flamed to hell for pointing out that sc2 is a drop of water in the ocean that is the competition.



What? Are you seriously implying that Dota, Starcraft CS:GO and League are in the same genre? Get real.

I wonder what is there in it for Blizzard. Surely, it's a generally nice think to do, but how are they going to make any money from it, unless the BW HD is a new game, with a price tag? I doubt that esports could make any real profit for them either.

Maybe if they make also UI improvements, they have some chance of getting new customers for BW - I know that here on TL, there is this hardcore group of BW fans, who see the game as completely perfect, but let's face it, how many people there are, who would be willing to play BW as it is (just with better graphics and maybe matchmaking) and don't play it already?

What was actually wrong with it? I was subscribed to the subreddit but never saw anything other than vague whining and subjective complaints.

This is either very awesome, or really bad.

I'll just pray they don't change anything to gameplay. (and the story and music)

Too much negativity in this thread. I love Blizzard- they've made some of the best games ever. Even if you don't like Hearthstone, MOBAs, etc. (which i don't), I don't see why they get so much hate. Do you like *every* single song from your favorite artist?

I didn't play it myself, but I was watching a lot of this unfold. Problems: Tons of bugs that weren't in the original, some bad optimization, and then an expansion which broke multiplayer. Lot of desync issues.

I could go along with:
1. Pure technical improvements
2. Reduced Spider Mine vision
3. Improvements to observer mode
4. Some colors on minimaps are difficult to see. Spider mines are also too big.

Would be interesting:
1. Slight decrease of SCV health
2. Medic special abilities
3. Beefier or faster building Nydus

Would be VERY interesting/risky:
1. Ghosts
2. Slightly faster Sunkens and or Creeps
3. Sprites bug
4. Archon/Dark Archon choice to High/Dark Templar
5. Scout
6. Nukes
7. Guardian floating
8. Queen

Would be CRAZY risky:
1. ZvZ
2. Control Groups +12

I will not state my feelings but please DO change at least some small things. BW could use some fresh blood, and the all version will still be there. I doubt that changes could be so large that they can't be balanced via new maps or existing map changes.

I think the easiest way to screw up the HD remaster is to even attempt to rebalance the game. For the initial launch, I would simply add widescreen support and resolution options. That alone will affect how far you can see, which at this stage of the game is a fairly major change.

Give us an improved observer interface so that casting can be better, give us widescreen support so it looks and runs better on modern systems, and if you MUST you can improve the graphics. I would strongly advise against touching the sounds, because those are iconic for a reason.

Oh, and just for me: If they spend some time making gorgeous new campaign cutscenes, I would be so happy.

Regardless of peoples opinions on Blizzards games, one thing I think everyone can agree on is that they are very polished. I would be very shocked if they released BW HD remake with the problems that aoe2hd had. It's why I like Blizzard games a lot (well sc1/2 and diablo ).
When I think of something else, something will go here
