Do you really think players like Flash, Bisu, Jaedong, EffOrt will switch to a game with a different field of view, MBS, and all these horrible changes? EffOrt complained about having to play on a different OS haha. And if pro's don't switch, their fans won't switch, which encompasses the entirety of Korea, the major instigator for this very remaster in the first place! Grubby doesn't even play wc3 in 16: 9 even though w3arena supports it. Pro's very much value comfort and familiarity. Exactly. I'm personally tired of these libtards that are hoping for the remaster to be what they want apart from the original. People are anticipating BWHD for the hope of it being EXACTLY THE SAME nothing more nothing less. People that want a change to the original already have options! Why are people whining when they can play a SC2 mod with ease!? Seriously, wider field of view, more unit selection... we already have that in SC2BW mods. Don't be a troll.

You ask for an explanation, get it, then get an attitude about the fact that what was presented is incontrovertible. I'm sorry that what I wrote disagrees with your fantasy world understanding of Brood War and what will and will not affect it and therefore what will and will not be palatable for the top-level players and organizers who have kept the scene alive in Korea, as well as the foreign players that have stuck with the game throughout the years. Don't descend to Fayth's level by making off-hand comments about me in unrelated discussions with other people. What are you gaining? Trying to get a rise out of me? Or are you justifying your stance by planting me in the "BW elitist" category, thereby dogmatizing my logically presented arguments by painting me an extremist? I would buy Brood War HD in a heartbeat if the name is representative of what it is: Brood War, unaltered, in higher aesthetic quality. If it is anything but, then I will continue to enjoy BW classic as I have for nearly 20 years and continue watching my favorite progamers continue playing BW classic to increasing viewer numbers and in growing prizepool tournaments without shedding a single tear. Thanks for your concern. I'm sorry for the snarky tone. I already said I actually know screen ratio would change some gameplay situations, that's why I can't really discuss that. But in turn, your argument isn't strong as you think, you haven't played in 16 : 9, and in fact few people have, and it doesn't change anything in the engine, so all you can do is speculate. I don't see how you wouldn't be a "BW elitist" in this discussion. So far, you haven't agreed to a single trade-off that BWHD could make. That's literally the most extreme position you can take in this debate. I know how it goes now, I'm arguing QoL changes like resolution changes to adapt to modern monitors, rebindable hotkeys, which may very well be enough to attract a nice amount of new players (like me, although I don't actually care much about screen ratio), and of course, you will answer that BW absolutely doesn't need new players because it has survived for so long. Fair enough, I won't discuss it anymore. But if you truly hope BWHD will change absolutely nothing, you're in for a disappointment. Edit: I actually almost couldn't tell if the above post was sarcasm or not. I hope you get what you want, BW fans. Which is apparently... BW with 4 times as many pixels? "BWHD" I guess, it's all in the title! That will be $30. | ||

If bwhd is just fixing bugs and increasing graphics, then it quite literally merits the name broodwar high definition. If its changing gameplay mechanics this is just a lazy attempt by blizzard to once again produce an RTS off the back of starcrafts success. Thats some low lying slime piece of shit behaviour. | ||

That's why they'll call it Brood War: Remastered and fuck w/ it like a bad DJ trying to score hot chicks on your annual cringe-worthy high school party. I'm praying to be proven wrong just this once. | ||

 support and chinese got something special for netease client. If you guys expect something more that feel free to but dont be dissapointed, from business side of Blizzard im quite sure its "minimal investment" for potentional profit. Also all of you guys are playing on free servers anyway so there is that. Wonder how that will do for adapting iccup and fish into it. | ||

It could easily run on the BW engine. Halo remakes for example, were mere texture updates and you could even switch between the original and the hd version during gameplay. | ||
