FMP just takes so much out of the game, stripping it to the very basics. Although if it will bring more people to SC2 I'm all for it

lol fastest is gonna be so absurd in sc2 with MBS and automine. at least in sc1 it trained you to work on your macro but now all you have to do is click a hotkey a few dozen times.



that said, i can't wait to play some games on it :D

I think fastest maps won´t be as much of a "problem" in SC2, because of Galaxy. There will be a mountain of awesome mods for the faint-hearted, offering easier ways to crack open the shell and overindulge the sweet fruits that are dangling from the SC2 tree.

UMS is going to be 10x as epic. Dota will probably be made, then played, then raged about. I think there needs to be some melee maps with absolutely stunning backgrounds, just to crank up the awe factor.

In THE COPPER LEAGUE. Well at least the ban-hammer works well in sc2.

Fastest maps were pretty much just a place where I'd go and mess around, try some new unit combos, or just turtle when I was bored. I don't think I'll be playing them in SC2, but I guess the demand from some players is there. All you have to do in this version of the editor is just hold shift while placing minerals/gas, it will let you place them wherever you want.

I liked fastest, but I prefer competitive play on SC2. Relatively more strategy involved instead of just mindlessly massing units.
But at what cost?

For those of you who think its mindless you should see some top level VGT play, theres some pretty skilled people. In BGH scene as well. I don't see the point of it in SC2 though, MBS and automine ruins any challenge it had.

ok i cant believe im going to argue this but i feel like i have to. fmp doesnt reduce the skill curve at all, all it does is speed up the game and reduce the complexities of expanding and macroing.

yes i know those are necessities in higher level non $ map play, stay with me though.

to say it reduces the skill level is idiotic. i guarentee you if pro gamers played fme there would be some sick gameplay going on and plaaaguuuu.

its like supcom 1 to 2 or dow 1 to 2. they both have simpler mechanics but the game is still as challenging, its just easier to get into for casual players which is why more people play it. its much easier to compete on fme, no doubt about that, but the skill level cap is nearly as high as it would be in the normal game. it would just be more about keeping your peons unharrassed and microing the shit out of every unit you have. less about expanding and map control.

with that all said i dont foresee myself ever playing one of those maps on sc2 but on sc1 its nice to not get murdered by some b- iccup guy on b.net and play fme instead

besides seriously nothing feels better then killing those damn workers with splash. nothing.

People have trouble expanding, I think that's the main reason FMP was created in the first place. I'm sure if casual players could handle throwing up an expansion at the correct times (lets say 8 and 16 minutes for example) they wouldn't even bother with FMP.

I think there may be problems with sentry spam. You can just get 20 sentry so easily and infinitly block off your choke(depending on how big it is in the map).

That's what Battlecruisers, Carriers, and Broodlords are for. It is fastest, after all.

FME maps are fun and all, but I really feel like it makes getting competition together in dorms and such way harder than it should. It's not inaccurate to say that there is a larger group of people that play FMEs (check bnet 1.0), and in my experience, that is all people want to play.

FME can be fun in certain circumstances, but it really ruins a large chunk of the core gameplay in SC, like expansion and timings. It becomes a big colorful blob vs blob battle.

In SC2, I also don't see how FME is going to work so well with MBS... Zerg is going to be completely unstoppable past five minutes in, once they get a bunch of hatcheries + queens constantly spamming.

NR15 is stupid. it doesn't even take 15 mins on money maps to get to 200/200 and 3/3.

funny how op complained about scv hp nerf when tanks do 60 damage...
I don't see how mules are any more imba in fastest than in normal play though, they get the same % returns extra for being closer. And energy doesn't come back any faster on OC.

If I ever play a game of this, I'm teching straight to storm. Ugh.
Probes need love too.
