BroodWar is happening, it's not a dream :D
Just one note to check your opinion guys. I don't mind the graphics, I played BroodWar so.... but I have a lot of SC2 friends that don't like to watch BW games cause of the lower graphics. Would it be a good option thinking about one day playing it with Starcraft 2 BroodWar mod?

it's not the same. (SC2 engine can never replicate BW by design)

Hell, i would say that BW graphics are actually better since the graphics are clear and crisp if I take a quick glance at a terran's army, i can easily single out and identify every unit in that blob. I can't do that for sc2 (look at sc2 deathballs, dafuq is in there?)

Yeah, one thing I love about BW is that I get to watch from these afreeca thumbnails at work on my mobile. ^^

But rather than that I'd ask your friends give the game a few hours, just let them play and listen to the sounds. After a while I think anyone will appreciate the amazing music, sounds and even the graphics. I didn't know about BW before SC2 and it worked that way for me. There is nothing wrong with BW's graphics, it's all a matter of getting used to stuff. Once you spend a few hours watching the game it's not a problem. And missing out on the greatest RTS of all time because they're unwilling to put in the few hrs to get used to this? I think that's dumb. I suggest starting with the icy environment maps, there's not so much stuff to take in there and the units stick out better.

I really like the melodies but I can't stand the singing
it sounds like they're screaming

I want to see the new maps. >.<

I think its nice to see HKSL (confusing acronyms) and SSL making themselves unique with HKSL getting all classy + new maps and SSL going with sbenu-stuff and old school maps.
