This system is still horrible and nowhere near how good the warcraft ui was......... At least it is an improvement I guess?

What properties of the wc ui would you like to see in sc ui?


He must mean the animating chains. Everybody loved waiting 5 seconds to transition between each screen!


I personally did not mind that, but fair point.

The chat channel system is very poorly done still, and the biggest issue being the arcade. Not being able to create a game name is because "spammers" is obnoxious. Imagine if you wanted to play public dota and you got into the game and the host just randomly put -apem when half wanted -rd and the other half wanted -arem because that is what we have right now in popular games such as mafia.

Most warcraft 3 players would run 1v1 obs games all day too, and game names are important for this...

Oh and warcraft 3's tournament everything>>>> sc2s, not to mention it SHOULD NOT count towards your 1v1 ladder.


I'm not sure how the sc2 system works, but I assume you'd be able to see the settings before you enter a game. Those -rd things you are talking about are game settings I guess? haven't played wc3. It could be annoying if the host start changing key settings after you join though, but then you need a malicious host, that just as easily could misrepresent the game name in war3.

1 on 1 OBS is important, but that is easily solvable by making a 1 on 1 OBS arcade map, no? You can't indicate level I guess, but then you can start making different arcade maps called "1on1 OBS diamond" or something. Not the neatest solution maybe...

I haven't played the sc2 tournaments, but how were the wc3 ones better/different? At first glance, I don't see why they shouldn't use your tournament performance when they estimate MMR, care to elaborate?

I don't get why this is such a big deal, making an UI like that in 2015, after it has been done to death a million times in a million applications should be a question of a couple of days. They could even offer various interfaces to choose from fror differente peoples' tastes.

In any case, I don't personally care much anyway as long as I can find my friends, invite them to party and click "find match".

It's a big deal for sc2 because it was crap before. I haven't seen anyone praising blizzard for their new groundbreaking revolutionary UI, but more like "this should have been there at launch, but better late than never".

I don't think it'll affect me much either, but apparently some people use the chat and arcade a bit more than we do. So good for them!

So, does this mean we can always only have this one chat window open? Why can't we have two chats open simultaneously?

Otherwise I really like it.

I loved that too! I also loved the UI right after they put in Arcade! when I used to play Fun or Not games for hours on end everyday

Hahaha, yeah!! And it will be lost again for their next SC game, until they can again recover it going back more than a decade to the past =P

LAN technology is probably lost in the mists of time forever though.

You can't please everyone. Literally 5 years ago an extremely loud vocal minority was saying the exact opposite.

not sure if it needs to be revolutionary or groundb reaking. It just need to work and easily to get around.

Currently, the chat does feel a bit clunky. Maybe they can just copy from whatspp or some other chat app to.

I have to agree with this. I really hope the ingame interface gets a new look too, because right now if someone tunes into a sc2 stream, you can't tell the difference between HotS and LotV (if there are no units on the map etc...).
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.
