There aren't any other tournaments running those ads, thats why I'm doubtful those licensing fees exist anymore. Although you still have to get permission. (edit: https://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/pxnz2/lantastic_gaming_incident/c3t399s . Its a permission thing, not a taking money from orgs thing, thats why Valve & Riot still do it, I think its a way to be able to blacklist/deny tournament organizers they think are shady/scams ) | ||

Heres hoping they just touch up the graphics and leave everything else alone. They do that and I'll be happy and buy it. | ||

Besides, I can't even play the game after I uninstalled and reinstalled, when I reinstalled there was an update, but cause of that "awesome" update I can't play BW now. This is honestly the way I feel too, BW is perfect the way it is. | ||

Diablo 3 was a complete disaster and a shit stain on the name of Diablo games. WoW was never a huge fan of, but 100% of the people I know who play the games all say the last 3 or so expansions have been awful. Granted its a small sample size of like 15 people. Still 15/15 is not good numbers for saying its been crap. LotV killed all interest I have in the game, haven't watched a single match or played a single match since shortly after it came out. These are of course just personal opinions but to me, blizzard has shit the bed hard recently and that scares me with this upcoming BW HD. | ||

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. Remind me how the game that popularized esports in America was a disaster | ||

"BW purists" means the couple of posters above who want BW "just the way it is", without HD or anything else touched up a bit. It's like, the fucking dictionary definition of "pure BW". If they're making a new game, they're obviously going to change something. | ||

1) Custom hotkeys 2) Fix idiotic ramp behavior without affecting any other aspect of pathing (nigh-impossible, I'm sure) 3) Fix scourge pathing where they just can't seem to hit the the slower unit running away from them, no matter how many times they try 4) HD sprites that remain true to the original sprites, i.e. no cartoony crap If they plan on having widescreen HD resolutions, won't this necessitate adding more visibility to the screen unless they use black bars? | ||

Cataclysm had his weaknesses, Mists of Pandaria was great. Warlords of Draenor could have needed another raid, but it wasnt bad. Asking for a Starcraft 2 opinion in a Brood War section is like talking with a KKK supporter about ethnic stuff. You cant win. Btw: People hated Burning Crusade and WotlK while it was active: "WOW IN SPACE LOL SO MUCH PURPLE GAYELFS TENTACLEMONSTER!! SO MUCH TRASH!". WotlK: SO EASY FUCK HARDMODES FUCK ACHIEVEMENTS FUCK THE COLLO RAID " User was warned for this post | ||

Then it seems like a possible win-win situation to me. If the HD-Version doesn't change anything gameplay-wise, we might see lots of people come back to/join in on BW - and we can go there, too, or keep playing the old game. If the HD-Version does change something gameplay-wise, we might see lots of people come back to/join in on BW - and we can just keep playing the old game. "possible win-win situation" because I'm not sure what would happen to the korean ex-pro-scene as it is now... the broadcasters might consider to switch to HD anyways to attract more viewers... there might be some players who would switch to the HD-version even if there are gameplay-changes because of that, others would stay with the older verison, the scene would divide. But everyone might also stick with the old-version if the new gameplay is crap... | ||

everything in mcalauncher but pluginless (antihack, wmode) networking fixes so you don't have to forward ports matchmaking and NO changes to the gameplay. seriously, BW is so finely balanced by pure chance (i doubt they could have forseen, lets say, muta stacking playing such a large role in balance), tweaking something like ramp pathing or scourge logic may reduce the skill ceiling, or worse, subtly alter the balance in a way that makes one build or race super strong. | ||
