As an example, take away the Dragoon's pre-firing delay and goons become about twice as strong against early Terran plays such as FD pushes, and Dragoons would be able to just a-move through sparse fields of spider mines. Take away the projectile sprite as well and have the damage be instant, like the Marine or Hydralisk, and Dragoons could a-move through moderately dense spider mine fields. Another example is the way that some building configurations block all units, some block Zealots but not Marines, etc. Blizzard certainly did not set this up intentionally. If all buildings had the collision size of the Pylon, Terran wall-ins wouldn't be possible, and they would probably still be considered an inferior race. Also, way back when, the Reaver used to work much better. Patch 1.4 screwed up the AI. I'm fairly certain this was unintentional on the part of Blizzard. | ||

You can't create the spells that aren't there, such as runes, death coil affecting two targets, polymorph killing flyers when over water, randomly wandering blizzard. You can't add the oil resource and its gathering. You can not emulate building of walls. There's probably a whole lot of other differences that you can't do anything about. It's just not possible to make the new game play identical to the old one. But even disregarding all this, I still don't see your point. WC2 is not Starcraft, it never got that popular, and even if it were true that no one wanted to re-make it in the newer engine, this is not indicative of the current situation. | ||

You can't add the oil resource and its gathering. You can not emulate building of walls. If you've seen the creativity of WC3 map makers, you should know that you can definitely emulate explosive runes and death coil affecting two targets in WC3. Also, Blizzard didn't wander in WC2 (nor does it in WC3), and making a permanent polymorph like the one in WC2 shouldn't be a problem. Building walls would be quite easy, if you've seen how Tower Defense maps can make 1x1 buildings. Not being able to restrict units to a grid is a real limiting factor, but even the oil resource might be emulated (WC3 editor does allow for a third resource type to be added (usually score when it's used), making the count go up when a certain sea unit does something wouldn't be too hard. And yes, there are enough sea units to emulate the ones in WC2). IMO, no one emulated WC2 because WC3 is so much better. | ||

If someone actually made something like SC1 (as close as you can get anyway) I'd probably play it with some mates, not much, but from time to time we would probably break it out just for fun. | ||

I'm sure that some enthusiast will make SC Broodwar with the new engine. Hell, someone even made it for Warcraft 3. But not many people will play SC2 for Broodwar. IF they want to play the normal game, then they'll just boot up their actual copies. | ||
