I wanted to say that the oldschool players used to be really smart and creative. That's because the game was mostly unexplored then, thus giving much greater value to creativity/"talent". Furthermore, the talent pool used to be bigger (for foreigners) AND there was simply more room for people to actually showcase their creativity, as while someone today might be really creative, some openings are just inferior etc. | ||

Plus, I still haven't been banned yet although I'm the only one here constantly criticizing SC1 (which is actually blasphemy on this site). Which is really kind of amazing, because trolls are banned instantly here, and there are a lot of banned users. It almost makes me think that the mods are actually smart enough to realize that a lot of what I write is true. Almost... I've kinda lost hope that there's someone else here other than delusional fanbois who think that everything about SC1 is amazing, even its obvious flaws. You are not banned because you don't troll, and I'm not gonna ban someone just because he thinks differently from me. I find some of your comments in this thread a bit offensive tho, obviously not banworthy but meh -_- | ||

you say that ur opponent will have an advantage because they will have mbs but they shouldnt suffer just because you like having a dumbed down UI. If MBS is meant for the casual player than im sure a "pro" not using mbs will be able to handily defeat the casual player. if u hate auto mine then y don't u just mine the old way? not that hard just because you dislike having non a shit-tastic user interface doesn't mean the rest of the population should suffer for it what makes u think that having a non-shit user interface will make sc2 too easy to play? I think all of you are underestimating human creativity. Competitive SC became popular due to game balance and creative plays, not because it's exciting to watch oov macro out 2 extra tanks than his opponent | ||

Why did I vote no? I view MBS as an advancement in gaming. SC is archaic, and SC2 is the new generation. I really don't think MBS is going to have such a devastating impact like most of you think. That's just my personal opinion. I also love micro, and I love the fact games are now going to be much more micro intensive. | ||

So no, if we think MBS will make the game worse we can't "just ignore it". | ||

I also love micro, and I love the fact games are now going to be much more micro intensive. Units now autosurround the enemy, take automatically the shortest pathes to engage the enemy in battle, etc etc... no, it isn´t even more Micro intensive now... But I agree with the "SC2 is the new generation" you know, but men, this automining/autosurrounding/auto-taking-the smartest-choices-in-a-battle thing etc etc etc is just too much... TOO MUCH... I mean, at the end of this, what the fuck are we going to end doing by ourselfs?? Edit: Btw i´m a Marine now, watch out. | ||
