I'd like to practice customs with random people on different ladder maps but the way the system works right now it just takes eternity for someone to actually join a game I create if it's not a top custom map (which has been team monobattles/shattered temple for the past few months) | ||

EDIT: you can use forge late game for upgrades* Opening forge massively delays tech, and Protoss needs high tech units in order to survive the mid-game, because gateway units suck so much. If you could build a cyber core after forge and skip the gateway it wouldn't be so bad. | ||

Do you feel that excitement levels would be consistently improved if Xel Naga towers were used with more restraint or eliminated? Do you feel that terran scanner sweep is too powerful relative to map sizes and creep/cloaking mechanics? | ||

Make it more like how it was for B.net 1.0 where it lists most recent created games where other players can see and join. This way we're not stuck with just team monobattles/shattered temple as the only 2 top custom maps we can play on (with any chance of another player joining......) I'd like to practice customs with random people on different ladder maps but the way the system works right now it just takes eternity for someone to actually join a game I create if it's not a top custom map (which has been team monobattles/shattered temple for the past few months) I hate to come down on just you since these questions are asked over and over in this thread, but read the OP! Side Note: Anything to do with Lan, Battlenet 0.2, Chat Channels almost always leads to a "you need to talk to Chris about that" responses. Try stick to balance/design quesitons/ | ||

- What are your thoughts on "anti-micro" ablities (FF, Concussive shells, fungal)? Do you think it's benefitial / detremental to the game if a player can only watch and not influence the battle? - What are your plans\hopes\ideas that you would do to improve the viewing quality for the spectator in the upcoming expansions or patches, and drive SC2 further as an spectator sport? (stolen from saynomore^^) Unrelated *cough*: - Looking at the Korean proscene (GSL) which is heavily dominated by Terran. Would you consider nerfing Terran for a "better racial distribution" even though that would mean to make Terrans underpowered? - What would you consider your biggest mistake in designing SC2? What would you consider your greatest success? No "back in beta" talk  | ||

Uh, I don't really think David Kim is that good, I know he's GM or masters, but I believe I remember one time on Sheth's stream where he was telling David Kim that you could unload marines in bunkers and then salvage them or something like that, so I don't know. Even so, I think that Blizzard's design/balance team definitely has far too few people. | ||

I think this is an interesting twist to the whole "why do the maps suck" question | ||
