Blizzard should hire Bruce Shelley. The Age of Empires games were so much fun.

As long as hed does not transfer any EA Sales and Marketing ideas to Blizzard it's okay (Get siege tank DLC only 9.99$)
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.

C&C Generals was the best C&C game ever made and the only one, that had an interesting multiplayer mode. So this might be a good thing... might.

This guy was not working on Generals. He was working on Generals 2 the Pay2Win abomination. To be honest i enjoyed playing it during the beta, but it turned out to be a imbalanced and bugged pay2win game. The preferred working on monetization instead of fixing bugs and imbalances (in fact they even made the balance worse with every new pay2win faction commander they added).

This is a very very bad thing.


As a ConquerCup.com admin I can say RA3 was close to balanced. Balance depended mainly on the maps. We held over 100 competitive events and gave away thousands of dollars in prizes.

Kane's Wrath was also close to balanced. A very knowledgeable C&C expert level player Technique posts here occasionally and if you'd like to have a debate with him claiming Kane's Wrath was imbalanced and unplayable due to lack of balance.. gl with it

over all EALA was pretty good, EALA's top guy for RA3 Greg Black is working on LotV as well


the same greg black that said something along the lines of pro players play too fast? -.- david kim is 1000 times better than greg black. and kanes wrath had 9 factions and only 2 were winning any major tournaments at all. when you have players changing factions just because that faction was terrible left and right you have an issue...


Kane's Wrath was only like that for one patch. At this point, and for the last few years Kane's Wrath is as well balanced as any other C&C game made.. inluding RA3 which is fairly well balanced

http://www.cncsaga.de/1469-interview-with-greg-black.htm

Greg Black provides some good insight into life at EALA making RTS games.

He did a nice job of ignoring Avilo's hissy fits about how underpowered the Allies were in RA3 and how Vindicators were going to become suicide bombers after they were nerfed

Vindicators continued to be viable after their nerf and never became the suicide bombers Avilo whined about.

Greg Black did a solid job.

Oh, I'm positive the game will drastically change; it has to in order to address the concerns of the playerbase.

Which wont happen. Blizzard have proven themselves useless time and time again.


Diablo 3 dramatically changed in light of community driven feedback after it broke sales records, there is no real reason to think SC2 wouldn't. HotS was a weird case because SC2 was doing really well when it entered beta, which wasn't nearly enough time for them to really do some reworking.

Im going with Faust852 here. Why are people putting up useless polls and some are making comments ala: "Cant get worse than it is" ? He is a PRODUCER not a DESIGNER.

I agree Greg Black did a solid job but RA 3 was far from balanced. Especially at the end when they made Empire and Allies OP as hell and left Soviets UP(I wont get too much into detail here. One example is that Sov units were way overpriced and too expensive). RA 3 had a time similar to SC 2 where the game was in a really bad state. And lol at David Kim is doing a better job. He is far away from that. Dustin Browder is a great Designer but the execution from DK balancing the units is suboptimal.

He's a producer, most likely won't have any input whatsoever when it comes to the design, after all, that's what designers are for.

Getting worked up over this is like getting worked up over the announcement of a new art director, and then saying the game is now going to be really buggy and unstable. Two completely separate disciplines, especially in a team the size that Blizzard have.

I don't know what a "Lead Game Producer" actually does but SC2 can not get enough new blood. The only way is up i suppose.

New blood could be good.. sad that yet again they focussed on "previous RTS experience" from lesser titles.
Hopefully he can change some fundamentals and isn't just there to build a better warhound....

To be fair, are there really any better titles than Starcraft or Warcraft?

Get a grip dude. I seem to remember you saying that you don't even play SC2, but rather BW. That is all dandy, but anyone who have played this game since release will agree, that SC2 in its current form is no where near as bad as it has been.

As to whether this is a good or a bad thing, i have no idea, but my guess is that SC2 will experience a spike when LotV is released, but then continue to decline, just as it is happening now - and just how every other game has its time.

Man TL turned into a massive trollfest. I asked why people say "Cant get any worse". Two people after me make a post: "Cant get any worse"...
With people being in super dick mode like this, this forum is slowly turning into Bnet forums. Do people really have this much fun annoying other users? Sometimes I hate the Internet.
