sure, I suggest that you should learn another language, and then volunteer to do the translation for the rest of community, all for free of course.

I can't believe Browder. He doesn't even play the game and openly states he won't bother designing the game for the pro players because the game has to be noobie friendly. So we can't have decent maps with no stupid rush spawns because Browder thinks that all 3 races can rush equally (hint: they cant)

Why not trap all the noobies in noobie league where they have special maps so that they can't be rushed? Oh, wait.. hmm..

Pretty sure he gave up on the game when he realized that good players need to do more than memorize 5 different rush builds. Sad that the HoTS expansion which was being marketted early as the big expansion for E-Sports is now the big expansion for casuals. Wasn't that WoL's focus too? Blizzard needs to get their priorities straight. This isn't a game casual players will stick with, no matter how much time they waste on developing these 10 minute missions and custom games. Multiplayer is where the effort is rewarded. Players who are bad at SC2 can still watch it. Focus on that.

do you think sc2 is harder to watch compare to BW? unit clumps and AoE spell... (they tried to link this to balance design)
unit clums means not "horrible pathing". For mordern RTS we NEED good pathing and we think its the future. Its is true that its harder to see if unit clumps but we are trying our best to solve that with the UI. About the AoE, i feel like it makes the battle much more fun to watch (micro challenging). If you dont think Sc2 is a good game to watch, BW is still out there and a lots of people still watch it. SC2 is a different game and different people. Please go back to BW if you think sc2 is not suited for you.

Did he just dodge the question about Close Spawn positions?

Or did he just not understand it? From the way he spoke, it seems like either is possible.

They asked if Blizzard planned to remove close spawn positions on Shattered Temple and Metalopolis for the ladder play... and he talked about weather or not they were going to remove the maps from the pool. -_-

edit: And I would totally view those videos as simply audio files- if u actually watch them you'll probably die from boredom.

Well, that interview definitely didn't inspire much faith in blizzard to do the right thing with the expansions at all. Disappointing.
there's a bug in the new patch where the other player keeps killing all my dudes.. please nerf this

well I guess Browder is the wrong person to talk about stuff like this cuz it seems like he doesnt even play the game too often...

I mean they made terrible designdecisions and they will keep doing them in HOTS and he is just dodging question related to these points and making bad statements about some others(like unitclups and that it not so easy to enjoy as scbw)


I dont know where we go from here, but I feel like SC2 is a much worse game than it could be, but its still a pretty, pretty good game.

On the map thing, would there be any real problem with changes the ladder map pool for master/GM players? Then the noobies could have their stupid rush maps.

Sigh, all my hopes are dashed.

Ladder maps will still be noob friendly.
No intentional fixes for Zerg.

I guess I can hope their new units will good. That's the last hope I have.

Most of the translations are already posted in this thread, they are just not in the OP. I was posting this for other people, not myself, who have already read them.

And sure, if it were in Japanese, I would.

Smartass.

Yeah why should they try and make a game thats better. So what they didn't perfect it in the first incarnation. This game will change drastically, and while they said they will not unclump the units, its not like they don't know its an issue, and they can compensate for it in other ways, to make a great game thats maybe better than ScBW.

It makes me sad that dustin thinks close spawns are FUN! I mean i guess if u like to own on zerg as terran and own on protoss as zerg then ya close spawns are great! He claims that maps need to be different in a tourney environment then ladder. Well the only thing mlg changed was close spawns and made it so your ramp cant be cannoned/bunkered. Honestly I dont think anyone finds it fun to be cannoned/bunkered. Hell every time I talk to my noob friends they all complain about bronze being full of cheese. I think they would love the "tournament" maps that dustin sooo hates for the ladder.

It was said best. This is not a game for casual players. A casual player will buy this game regardless of how they treat the ladder. A casual player won't care about the imbalance of this or that. Balancing from bronze league and Dustin Browder citing his own minimal experience with ladder play is embarrassing to everyone that has played 10, 15 games a day to improve.

I agree. Does Browder not realise there is no such thing as "balancing" as long as both players are constantly floating 2k minerals?

I'd rather they redesigned the game to make it more fun, than just change stats to make it balanced. The whole clumping thing does not increase micro, it decreases it. The amount of maneuvers you could pull against different types of units with just marines in BW is a lot more than in SC2.
