Well we've all had our complaints about some of Browders units and decisions, so I'm curious to see if the direction will change a little in LotV.

And face it, it's not like they have a lot of other RTS-companies to pick new employees from. (though I'd accept Icefrog as lead developer lol)

This could be good. Can't wait to see how he runs things.
I used to play random, but for you I play very specifically.

I am a big fan of C&C from generals and earlier, but Tim seems to only have been involved with generals 2 which was canceled. In other words... not much to base on.

SC2 would be better if everyone involved in development actually played the game. Job requirement: X ladder games per week on company time, LOL

Seems like other than Generals 2 (aka C&C F2P), Tim Morten was a founder/owner of Savage Entertainment (source), which was mostly known for Star Wars: Battlefront 2. edit: oops, it's the PSP port

I doubt he'll get very deep into the design of SC2, but he may be calling the shots on what other features, such as Battle.net additions, may be implemented. I liked some of the concepts in C&C F2P, but I think it was pushed into the semi-closed Alpha too quickly, which seems typical of EA's practices.

No, that company was in charge of porting games

Oh yes, you're right. I forgot to read the fine print about it being a PSP port instead of the original.

All of the complaints in the forum was about how this game was too similar too Starcraft 2. The core C&C fan group wanted to have tanks that took like 5 seconds to turn around in order to create more "tactics".

That said, the micro still looked terrible in C&C f2p, so I don't have high expectations.

C&C4 was fail and Tim Morten does not correlates with C&C4 at all. He was a developer of cancelled C&C F2P (before it was named Generals 2). That game was playable for some time as alpha.

SC2 is basically C&C5 so I'm not even surprised that they would have an actual C&C dev come on to make LotV C&C6

My biggest hope is that with a new guy at the top of the team is that we can finally tackle some of the ongoing issues that the developers have not wanted to budge on.

I'm looking very specifically at you Protoss. Collosus, Warp Gate, and Forcefield have been 3 eye sores in the race's design and they were also some of Dustin Browder's personal favorite projects.

Hopefully some new blood at the top will actually be willing to address these.

Im happy they're bringing on new ideas. It seems like product leaders for SC2 have been unimaginative. It also seems like there's alot of really sick game developers on TL these days...

They could have snatched day9 from his current company that is making an rts. That would be a twist.

None of these are going away. I don't think anyone wants to completely and utterly overhaul Protoss at this point, nor do I think they should. We're already seeing cracks in the armor of Protoss dominance.
