Not even mad, just disappointed Yeah, I hate when they don't include something that in-theory-shoul-be-impossible-to-make-but-somehow-they-defied-that-and made-it-possible straight away into the game... Don't you feel this is just a slightly entitled point of view? :| I really want to know how they are making this actually. So far no other game has ever been able to do this as far as I know - very impressive! Also, is Day9 getting a nerf in response to this cause otherwise I don't see this being balanced at all.  | ||

Why should it be impossible in theory? If it just loaded the whole file into a buffer like any video you watch locally, or really any non-live streamed video you would be able to jump around, right? + Show Spoiler + I think DOTA2 has the ability to do this already, but it's some weird server thing | ||

There likely is a sweet spot between those two extremes that allows replay seeking without gigantic replay files of dota2. | ||

Right now, a replay is a log with all the commands done by each player, the replay re-simulate the entiere game until a certain point. How will the game skip an entiere duration and know where will be the units etc etc ? I guess it's a technical achievement from Blizzard. Congrats to the devs. I'd imagine the new system will take up more memory and space in the sense that either the replays will be partially "pre-buffered" or individual units will have more properties (position, action, current command, etc.). I wouldn't say it's much of a technical achievement; I'm sure Blizzard was able to do this long time ago, only limited by the amount of memory and space typical PC users had in the past. I wouldn't be surprised if other RTS games had this feature long before SC2. | ||

What about a colorblind mode, I sure need that. http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/9245745034#4 (July 12th) We've actually been working on colorblind support and I think you will see something very shortly on it. | ||

Because the replay was just a log of the commands issued, thats why replays could actually look a bit different each time. Was funny when that happened in BW replays big times and then game went complete insane. At the end you didn't have many features due to this, but it was fast and small, which is always preferable over load times. They probably log a bit more now, which is the reason why replays will become incompatible. Hope it doesn't affect load times to much but I am rather curious how they made it work. And resume from replay is probably the main reason why this gets implemented. | ||
