I mean, micromanagement is simply using army tactics closer to the individual unit level, as opposed to doing 'a+left click' with a deathball, isn't it? | ||

You have not played this mod? They move retarded and behave retarded. Broodwars pathing is weird to but there the micro is superb so its not that i dislike the "broodwar micro" or anything | ||

I was actually thinking about software going obsolete once hardware gets better and things become unsupported. Granted everyone should go play the original, but there will be a point in time where it'll be extremely difficult to emulate the real SC:BW. If there was a mod in SC2, BW would be able to live on longer. And keep in mind, I'm talking another 20+ years. Not just 'next year' or whatever. | ||

Just keep working on it. I would much rather play this than StarBow if it worked correctly (replicated BW completely). Not sure what you mean, but myself would probably play this alot if the micro got "fixed". Right now i never play it | ||

Right now i never play it I haven't played it since an early version, but from reading comments, it was in regard to the micro. "Just keep working on it." meaning the developers behind SC2:BW. "... if it worked correctly (replicated BW completely)." meaning if it was BW with better graphics. | ||

Maybe I never noticed because heavy micro was never really part of how I played Starcraft. | ||

Unless iam wrong, long time ago i played this mod cuz of these issues If you mean when the stream of Zerglings and/or Hydras stop moving in places, I think that's an intentional AI pathing behaviour to prevent units from travelling in "ball shapes", and becoming easy prey to AoE units (think Siege Tanks in vanilla SC2, and how they melt Zerglings now, compared to Brood War). In Brood War, a Zergling line typically moved in a single or double line, kind of like a line of ants. Same thing with Hydralisks. In this way, if the moving swarm encountered, say, a Siege Tank line, the first shots would only kill the few in the very front of the line, allowing the ones following behind to continue moving ahead. In most circumstances, a sizable Zergling line would reach the Siege Tanks in large numbers thanks to this pathing behaviour, and overall quick movement speed, then crushing the tanks thanks to their point-blank deadzone while deployed. | ||

Hi Lenin, This mod uses HotS assets, I don't know if that prevents WoL users from being able to use it (I feel like it shouldn't) but it could be the reason... | ||

Hey L3monsta, Before HotS came out i could play it but now it just wont show up but when i switch to starter edition its there. Just wondering if its possible to make it playable on WoL? | ||
