blizzard isnt going to try to add enough stuff to do to make up for mbs
they're adding mbs to make speed less of an aspect.

I'd be absolutely delighted to have a blizzard employee chime in with a response saying that I am wrong regarding this but I just really don't think I am. most people who start out playing rts games have like 30 apm or something if they have no experience beforehand
they're going to want those players to get something out of the gaming experience without feeling like theres an endless mountain of things they need to get done that was done automatically for them in other rts games. =[

yup, thats what I have been saying this entire time. Blizzard makes an easier version of SC and they do better with sales. Who gives a fuck if all the old bw players who are retiring/getting too old anyways are mad? Time for a new generation of sc players who dont need the mechanics of the old!

what do you mean? You faded away from bw fairly long before sc2 was being announced etc..afaik.

SC2 will have more money involved in terms of tourneys and leagues. It will also be a big sponsorship oppurtunity. It just wont be as hard as Sc1 so eventually the glitz will fade and the original die hard sc players will feel betrayed.

I really don't believe someone's skill still stays in 1z2z3z4z5z6z7z8z9z 1a2z3z4z4z5z6z7z8z9z.
I would like to see mbs. It might make gamers concentrate more on micro and tactics (i'm really tired of seeing macro wars in almost every rep/vod).
They first ignore you. After they laugh at you. Next they will fight you. In the end you will win.

If by fairly long you mean 6 months then, uhm I guess. I started playing poker late november/december.

But I'm still fully intending to play SC2 obv, just didn't feel like playing starcraft seriously anymore (ie needed a break).

Look at that! 44% for and against MBS! I guess only people against (mainly) MBS are bothering to start topics. If you look at the forums anywhere it looks like 99% of people hate MBS... but the poll speaks otherwise.

I hope (and assume they do) blizzard takes this kind of human behavior into account before changing things because of all the complaints.

This poll is no longer valid as it was proxyspammed by people when it was advertised on the battlenet forums.

That being said, Id just like to add something to the discussion. If you were not a good starcraft 1 player. You will not be a good starcraft 2 player. If people actually think that the reason they werent champion starcraft players was because they didnt have MBS then they are seriously deluded.

If this is your argument for MBS, please reconsider. Theres no problem with being a bad player at a game, you dont have to be the best to enjoy.

Nah i mean i hope they don't remove MBS because people complain about it. I hope that they do what they feel is best for the gameplay. Personally i don't really care what they do to the game. When it comes out i'll play it and learn it.

Can't wait :D :D

Tom Cruise is the warcraft 3 player that went to starcraft to convert them to the new but got awed by their community and converted due to the suckiness of wc3.

Then the machineguns are the new blizzard EZmode game, SC2, wich isnt badly made and moves down all of the culture starcraft had built in favor of the new EZmode wars. The warcraft player survived but ever after he preached of the greatness of starcraft pro wich likeness will never be seen again.

The girl you say? WTF how should i know that? Maybe the girl is his real life now that he dont have to play starcraft 24/7?

We need MBS , this is not 1998 anymore people will expect advances in the game and not just a rehash of the original.
Once again back is the incredible!

This notion has been noted a few thousand times. We know that blizzard knows what people expect.

This poll is beyond pointless now because anyone can just use a proxy or even restart their modem/router to refresh their ip and vote again. About 80% of the votes are most likely fake.

we already knew bnet newbs and the like would prefer mbs.
