let's compare a game that's been refined over a decade to a game that's in beta.

sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh STOP MAKING COMPARISONS THAT ARE BLATANTLY UNFAIR

sick of hearing shit like "i prefer sc1 to sc2". you're comparing a FINAL product to something that hasn't even been released. for god sakes, give it time before being so god damn judgemental.

Obviously very few people think it's fair to compare the quality of SC2 in its current state to SC1. Which is why so many think it's absurd to replace a professional league of a game that you agree is clearly superior at present with a professional league of a game that you agree is clearly inferior at present.

SC2 should earn its wings. If we didn't expect that of new RTS, we'd have pros screwing around with C&C X: Fourth Revenge of that Bald Immortal Tiberium Guy. I mean, look at its GRAPHICKS! Makes Broodwar look sooooo five minutes ago.

I havnt read the thread, but I am a little disgusted at Artosis' gross misrepresentation of the interview in the OP.


Hwanni: "i dont think it will end at all"


well you should have read the thread before you post such things... you forget that those guys know eachother.

Look at what Idra said:

I appreciate the interview. I don't appreciate how you framed the information to act as if the interview answered a question that it didn't. And you only need to look at the posts in this thread to see that you did mislead people.

i said it MIGHT BE, which hwanni echo'd in the interview.


You started off with "Yesterday was, perhaps, the last OSL qualification ever," and then, still in that context, quoted "OSL will probably switch over to SC2" (which was actually said by Hwanni in a completely different context). That is much different from just saying "this might be the last one"; that is twisting the text of the interview to suggest an answer that wasn't given.

On June 13 2010 14:34 Artosis wrote:
someone ban the retards please.


Lol, that's mature. But whatever, I'm done with this. No point in just continuing to point out the problem if Artosis is just going to flame and deny what's blatantly there.

shut up, hwanni did say it might be the last season of sc1, and that he thought it would probably switch eventually. of course artosis focused on the possible sc1->sc2 switch, thats all everyone is talking about right now and you should be happy to be getting information from one of the people whos actually part of the organizations making the decisions.

If all people thought like this we never would have had a professional league in the first place. If SC2 fails, they go back to Brood War. Simple.

Why wait for SC2 to release? Tiberian Twilight is out! I mean, if after a few OSLs and stuff it doesn't pan out, we can always go back to Brood War.

I watched another older interview of that guy with artosis in it he talks about SC2 also.. and hwanni is the one who says that this might be the last OSL for SC1 in that interview i think.... which is maybe the reason artosis said things the way he did in this interview..

Positive side - this would put more pressure on SC2 to improve as quickly as possible.

Yo guys do not get too damn serious about this interview yo,

My statement is an assumption not a fact.

I also hope that it turns out in a best way for us and all the fans.

Don't we all just love e-Sports?

Be positive, I am just looking foward to world wide league.!!

e-STRO GO! GO!

hey hwanni do you think all the top progamers of broodwar will switch to sc2? or will they continue to play broodwar? i am talking like most a teamers not just the top tier. currently have sc2 beta players?

I find starcraft 2 could be a replacement for broodwar, but i am going to go with the current progamers because i really enjoy watching gamers like action. Give my props to action ttyty.

Whhhhhhhhaaaaaaattt?
No more Broodwar? (Sadface)
Flash has yet to obtain his diamond mouse. (Sadface)
The list continues with sadfaces.

I doubt that SC2 will live up to Broodwar in OSL. The only thing we can do is to hope that SC2 OSL's will be just as awesome as the Broodwar ones were.

I drink to the future of Esports!
I hope sc2 reigns for another 10 years!

Hey guys! feel good about this- Sc2 will be balanced MUCH faster once korea pros get their hands on it. You all know there will be obvious abuses early that will slowly fade into the past like a bad dream =D

nothing is misleading. But nothing is concrete too. All speculation. Probably he meant the title which was totaly misleading.

I personally think that the worst thing about Starcraft 2 so far is all the new people that it has brought who have littered decent sites like TL etc


Why complain about further growth of a community like TL? Weren't those graphs posted that showed the amount of posts per day and users actively online on average before and after beta, etc.? You have 60 posts and joined the TL community 2-3 months ago and your'e complaining that the worst thing about this game is that people like you and thousands of others are adding on to the community?

the ONLY reason "casuals" who never knew BW or sc2 would pick sc2 as the "better e-sport in viewer entertainment" is because of the graphics


if BW had its graphics engine updated and kept its outdated user interface, people would pick it as being entertaining. the gameplay in high level BW games is just more fun to watch then sc2

if BW had its graphics engine updated and its user interface updated with no changes to game balance, it would be even more entertaining because the pros could use their high APM to do more actions leading to a game even better than sc2 as far as viewer entertainment goes




if BW and sc2 are both allowed to exist freely in the korean pro scene you will quickly see in 2 years that sc1 will have much more viewership for their tournament grand championship final games than sc2 will have because sc1 is more exciting. even if sc2 was balanced blizzard just made too many dumb decisions.

after 10 years of BW gamebreaking strategies are still coming out . 14cc went from being a "retard build flash shouldnt have used. instant death if you ever use that build. crap build" to being "the most overpowered build against zerg. unbeatable. dayum how do you stop it" in one week. i may be wrong but i cant see sc2 gameplay ever reaching that level of diverse interesting metagame ever...
