wow they wrote all that just to tell us nothing will happen soon?? You so troll, Blizzard.

It's like their priority right now is making those mission packs since they can extract more money from the userbase, but bug fixes? fuck that, right?

I don't want to make the comparison, but when you look at Riot which does things proactively it's completely night and day.

No new maps after the community has been so vocally against the current pool is a complete joke. I seriously can't believe they'd think that leaving the current map pool is okay.

Does anyone like Central Protocol? Anyone?

IMO the worst map in the pool is Prion. Possibly it could be better if the 3rd/4th bases were made blue and the gold base was the one on the high ground near the 3rd. At least that one is easier to assault than defend. The game is balanced around blue bases and when you start giving up golds like that Zerg can just produce way too much.

I also really liked how Dash & Terminal played out in LotV. I actually preferred that map in LotV than I did in HotS.

No new maps might just be a ruse to deflect some of the hate they deserve for delaying promised features, 2 weeks in they probably will "listen" to the community and throw the bone, appearantly fighting for it makes the bone more tasty.

Blizzard slowly but surely becomes to the same careless PPL that RIOT Games mutated into.

1.Both do what they like and gief a * about what the Community badly want. (NEW MAPS )
2.Behaves like they can dictated how to play the Game. (Maps should be gimmicky - Riot does the same with removing Mechanics that doesn't fit what they want it to be ).
3. Extremely abuse the we need time to fix X or Y - Balance take it's time that's something everyone may agree on - BUT not fixing Ladder Issues ASAP is just frustration for everyone involded into.

Comments are negative as ever

I just watch some matches during the weekdays and play a few coop during weekends so I guess map and other stuff don;t really influence me as much
A bit funny to see so many people here are complaining every single words David Kim said

I don't really play either, last thing I did was campaign. Just understand that other people play the game a lot, and really want things to improve. I want things to improve, and I don't even play, if they did improve enough I might. I'm not holding my breath however.

Dkim usually wrote next issues on reddit if current community feedback doesn't deliver much but now he even didn't.....

Just want to respond that they can dictate how the game should play. It's actually great if a good designer does so, because that is what game design is to begin with. David Kim and his team just have no vision and no philosophy which makes them bad designers. Given that they still tried to redesign the game without that skill they aren't even good maintainance. Without the massive Blizzard finance and the solid WoL foundation the game would be just another grey goo or act of aggression.

Appearently they didn't. They talk about time in Blizzard time in stead of actual. I'm confused.

Back-End

We’re working on a variety of improvements under the covers, including further protections against hacking, various performance optimizations, improvements to how our patch deployments work, and more.

Finally. The performance optimizations should also help to get better framerates with lesser CPUs.

Blizzard are so good in PR talk.

So sad they're so terrible at actually doing any kind of work.
Seriously DK looks like a student in social sciences telling his teacher he'll be late finishing his paper.

So they changed PO cost but didn't change it's duration?

I guess I'll just have to auto leave when I get matched against zergs now.

I like how they're always working on "protections against hacking" but in the end you can literally google sc2 hacks and the first page will lead you to forums that contain free hacks that work any day of the year.
