BW fans had many years of misery because of SC2 release and Blizzard's intrusion into BW life. Because of that, u see the constant bashing directed at SC2. They got their "revange". Of course it would be healthier for everyone that the negative statements stop, from both sides, but it's not how the internet works.

I don't get why people have the need to bash the game. It's passive aggressive insults.

If you don't like the BW scene then just don't roam the BW section of the forums or play the game at all for that matter.

It's so ridiculous seeing the same people bashing the game, playing the game they are bashing lolz. Starcraft/BW has always been fun and will always be fun because of the balance. It's near perfection.

It's almost like the sc2 players are angry at the fact that BW is taking away some of their scene because of the remake.

Some players dislike BW, others SC2. Deal with it and move on. If you don't like BW then continue to not like it and play the game you do. No need to be a downer for the people who are excited about the remake.

I sware, every time i come to these forums theres always some grudgy old fella trying to ruin the fun for the rest of us.

I swear I see exactly the same attitude towards SC2 from this forum. Constant passive aggressive insults towards SC2 (and directly/indirectly me as a fan), how superior BW is with ironic ^^ and emotes meaning I must be inferior too since I got into an inferior game is what I read for years. You all get every bad word about BW personal too and need to retaliate how shit SC2 is, how the hype died out, how the playerbase shrunk, how dem millenials can never see true beauty, don't you? No wonder you can develop some bitterness towards BW fanbase, especially here on TL. I'm really glad that some people here don't define the game for me.

SC:R looks amazing. I can't even comprehend how anybody can talk badly about it. The only people i see complaining is sc2 hard core fans which doesn't make much sense since you aren't going to be playing the game anyways.

I played SC2 since beta so I guess it makes me a hardcore fan, I got internet at home too late to get into 1v1 BW back in the day but played few games of it once in a while, am I allowed to play your remaster?

Some people just need to stop, imagine there are people that like both but one of those slightly more.

Not defending Nathanias and his daed gmae remarks

^^
do u need forum aproval to play a game? Do u need people to talk good about bw to play it? Or metal gear from ps1 or pro evolution?(yeah they are all great games sorry to no include sc2 :p)every i heard from sc2 is that the game is crap,it didnt stop me to buy every expansion play somes games and never run it again.anyway dont force yourself to do something cuz others are doing it but cuz do you like it.nathanias said he did enjoy playing but the game is to hard and the pathing and the micro,no shit Pedro u re not even a good sc2 player how do you expect to master BW.

Yeah and tbh similar things happened with sc2 and lol (or melee and smash 4). I guess it's to be expected. Tbh I really hate this part of bw community.

I don't like the negative behavior either, but blizzard actively sabotaged the bw scene to promote sc2. So it's not really comparable with another game like lol taking share of the player's base.

Haven't we had enough BW vs. SC2 and Blizzard-discussions over the years? It's also been boring for years, so I don't get why people keep feeling the need to fuel that fire. People have different opinions - deal with it.

On the other side; I'm not able to launch 1.19 today, after logging in the login-window just becomes blue and nothing happens. Tried both StarCraft Launcher and StarCraft, but the issue persists with both. Anyone having the same problem?

Edit: nevermind, works now.

People get so emotional over SC2 vs. BW. It's always felt so incredibly childish to me. Somehow, someway, I like playing and watching both BW and SC2, and even WC3! Did you guys know WC3 was shit on extensively for years too on this site? Now people look at it and think of it as some masterpiece. It took a few years before it was modestly accepted. SC2 is an amazing game but there's obviously something about BW that is magical too.

Judging by the amount of viewers big streamers like flash and bisu get from afreeca, I can't say I am that confident in SC:R getting a lot of new people into it. But I would like to be proven wrong.
30min watching Artosis playing it is enough to remind me why I would prefer not to play the MP part of it.
But with the new ob UI and graphic update I am looking forward to some tournament streams, preferably with good English casting.
As for the game itself, I would probably pick it up later when it is out just to enjoy the campaign again and maybe some custom game like BGH.

Flash has 36 thousand 200 viewers right now.

I think that's a significant jump.

edit: 40 000.

Personally it's fine for me to criticize both games with reasonable arguments, but looking at people who ran out of such and hurl insults as if players of the other game were deluded for their entire life makes me feel ashamed that I can accidentally be considered a member of the same community as them.

Worse than bloody five year olds.

Are we doing this again? Blizzard did not maliciously try to "kill" BW. At WORST, they handled an IP-rights dispute in an indelicate, ham-fisted way.

No one said you have to like SC2, or even have a polite attitude toward it, but it would be nice if people didn't mangle the facts so they can enjoy a perverse victimhood complex.

Maybe start handing out mod actions for it then? Would probably help defuse things somewhat as well. Just a thought.

It's a generalised opinion across the bw community and there is no problem in expressing it. There is nothing to defuse except Waxangel's one man crusade against opinion contrary to his own interests.
