Now that's using your brain. Using old music, or picking which race music you'd like to have playing in the background as things you can buy with leveling. I'm sure people would go crazy for that.

Pretty lame they're this late with this patch... I was planning to play and stream but still nothing.. might just go to sleep.

i wonder, actually why not just include the SC1 themes too? i don't think ppl will have a problem... and also let people choose what tracks to include? (tho they probably won't do this cus they have so many other things to do... maybe do the former not the latter?)

its silly to me that the protoss music is basically an excuse, they reuse parts of SC1 P music in such a way as if they're saying "we're not recycling SC1 P music, we're including snippets of it in SC2 P music to represent the sorrow the protoss have for losing their home)

was the first thing i wanted to mention. still kinda disappointed considering how epic zerg's BW music was, and that terran still has the best soundtrack in SC2... but at least there's some tunes in here.

Terran has the WORST music in SC2, that hillbilly bullshit is fucking annoying.
I re-played SC1 in SC2 with the mod (from this forum) and I gotta say, the SC1 music though, it's pretty fucking good man. Considering how old it is, it's just great.

wut...Terran SC2 music is the best in the whole series. Very Firefly/pioneer sort of feel to it. It really fits the race perfectly.

And the fully orchestrated Wings of Liberty theme gives me chills every time. So good.

I'm glad you like it, I find it fucking terrrrrrrrrrible - thank god for the Protoss music, Zerg ain't bad either - all 3 are good but nothing on SC1.

Meh, to each his own, I suppose. I just always found the SC2 tracks to have a lot more depth, and overall scored a lot better.

Diablo 2 still has the best Blizzard music ever, though.

They talked about the music in the "making of" documentary that came with the collector's edition.

IMO, the composer's reasoning for the Protoss music is kinda bullshitty.

most people will say that terran music in sc2 is the best o.o

it seems sad that sc2 is being treated like a minor project, with a new designer/balancer (not that i think they're doing badly) and i guess music composers too... and not to even mention the seemingly small team sc2 has working

Wow, thanks a lot! time to watch... hopefully ill be enlightened about something

Edit:

LOL i was dead on! glenn stafford did terran music

Wait u gotta be kidding me... derek duke did Z music in SC1 too? there is such a big difference in quality in sc1 z and sc2 z music... music is subjective but i think most ppl will agree with me here ;;

I see derek duke under SC1 music composer, so i guess he did do the Z music too...

but this P composer is new

so what's derek's excuse?

that 1 z and 1 p theme are pretty good, i think ppl will know which ones i mean (the ones in the video actually), but the others are mostly ambient sounds

my current theory is that derek may have helped with zerg sounds in a minor role, while the other composers from BW (who aren't in SC2) mainly did Z/P (jason hayes is the 3rd and last composer listed on wiki, but it seems tracy w bush worked on it too)

Edit2: oh so jason hayes left for valve... no wonder dota 2's theme sounds so good

Looks like Blizzard have realized that if they don't get their shit together, SC2 will die completely! They've been working hard as hell lately, so good job Blizzard!
