We can still complain about no LAN till the end of time.

I really can't wait for this!! GSL maps are so awesome!!!
|
Kelly just said in the GSL that the GSL Maps are in the map pool. Does it mean that the maps are on some servers already in the ladder pool? I just checked EU - no changes there.

i thikn she said on the korean server. can anyone check this?

In this case, it's legit. Players across the world have been shedding sweat and tears telling blizzard how bad the map pool was even back in beta and it took them so long to react. No one is saying the length of time it took negates any changes they're making now but you have to admit, they could've acted much sooner.

She will have deinatley meant either the PTR server or the Korean server.
|
Sweet, looking forward to this.
|
Awesome news, I like the idea with three maps of each type instead of just plainly macro-maps since it gives more variety to the game

Congratulations. You win the prize for the worst misspelling of definitely ever

i think it would be an inevitability that they would use gsl maps. i think its also inevitable they will use iccup maps as well.

No she must have read this thread and got confused.

Terminus RE is awesome. I'm glad blizz is finally listening.
What I'm sad about is that iCCup maps aren't getting the attention they deserve.

I'm am pretty good (top 20 silver) and I don't like these maps at all. I think most people want maps like Steppes of War and Blistering Sands. They are intense and 'funky' and not as boring and cold as most of the 'Korean' maps, if you catch my drift. I mean what if my opponent is good at macro? I want strategic options that work against every type of player and these new maps don't supply that, and again I'm saying this is a strong player, not some bronze noob.
This post made me lol pretty hard. You're a super duper strong silver player, and your opinion on maps being too macro favored a really valid!

lol what? Most of the features people complain about should have been in the game from release, not months after. Chat rooms and customizable hotkeys are great examples of things that absolutely should have been in the game from release.
You're really coming off as a mindless fanboi. Blizzard can never do wrong! Of course! Everyone who gives criticism is a QQer! Criticism is bad! No one be constructive! No!

I actually never thought they'd do this after adding their new maps to the ladder. This is greattt.

But its been so long now that the point of "this should have been done earlier" isn't really..relevant anymore. Ok, it wasn't done. We all know. How could we not know? :p Is it really necessary to bring up "this is late" every time they do something? Its not that I think Blizzard isn't to blame or something like that, its just that we've all heard it 1000 times.

okay guys now let's move on to anti blizzard LAN demands, so far we've gotten everything else. (including a custom maps menu revamp ect)
|
Im just waiting for people to start complaining about the GSL maps once theyre finally added.

It's still relevant. Even if these were the best maps ever, SC2 is 8 months old already. And these maps have been around since beta. Proleague, MSL and OSL change their maps more frequently than this and only a select few maps stay longer.
The fact that the map pool isn't good just makes the problem worse. But 8 months is too long for a map pool to last. Blizzard should be changing them as often as the starleagues do. This new map pool shouldn't survive until October/November this year even if it's good.
