Looks nice, I'll try it out. Hopefully there are enough people interested to let games form easily

Don't be so quick to judge. Look at WC3 how a mod named DOTA became huge in special niche tournaments and quickly grew into a large tournament scene as it's popularity increased. If this becomes a popular mod on Bnet it would be foolish not to expect some tournaments to follow. Now whether or not this becomes popular remains to be seen. I would think if someone like NonY started streaming while playing this mod the popularity would receive a huge push.

I mostly meant like if Kespa would have switched to this instead of sc2, bwHD as people sometimes say they wished existed


you really think Kespa will trust a group of modders to balance and keep this map updated for them to run a tournament on?

Keep it balances? Why would they change anything.. the whole point of this custom is to be identical to bw, which is considered balanced.
Refer to my post.

Cool stuff. The mining thing is really interesting. Never knew about it before, though I've always had the feeling that expanding in SC2 wasn't as rewarding as it was in BW.

Bug report: When making units while supply blocked, larvae get a progress bar that is permanently empty.

SC2BW allows for air units to be stacked as long as they’re hotkeyed together with a building or unit far away. If, however, your control group should exceed 12 units/objects the air units will automatically disperse.


This seems so arbitrary. I know it's how Brood War did it, but why not just have "you can only select 12 Mutas, and they can stack". Why do I need to jump through arcane hoops that make no logical sense, just because BW did it?


because if you could stack 50 mutalisks....


Then don't let me select 50 mutalisks.

"You can select 50 mutalisks, but you can only stack 11 of them, and only if they're in a control group with an overlord, which is something you would never naturally do".

Muta micro in BW made it a great game, but the actual method of getting mutas to stack was pants-on-head retarded, and there's no reason to copy that part.

And stacking 50 mutas means I can win the game with a single irradiate :|



I would love to see these BW mechanics with the SC2 units, though. It'd make it a lot easier to separate bad unit design from gameplay limitations.

Awesome thread

The SC2BW vs SC2 comparisons are very well made. They describe perfectly the actual problem with Starcraft2, and why it is a "sit on 3 bases and get maxed out" game.
Dead game.

Lalush.. thank you. Great job with this post, and thank you Maverck, for working on this beautiful mod. I will look at this one again after this much time without trying it out.

When I have some spare time, I'm going to try to swap a unit with the broodwar sprite itself, and see if its cool enough / nostalgic enough. Would be cool to have an option to either show the game in 2D sprites or 3D models.

Ribbon has a good point.. But here lies the fault with community modding. Everyones going to have different (but valid) opinions. Without having a proper staff (like Mav) to make executive decisions nothing can really be settled on.

Edit: also great job on the mod so far
