No one can know what's going to happen. Maybe it will be good, maybe it will suck. Maybe it will kill BW, maybe it will end up like wc:3, maybe we'll all love it and switch. But one thing's for sure, I'm scared and nervous. | ||

The 3D environment alone makes it a completely different game without adding an extra race and extra units. If we expect E-sports to continue growing, then SC2 shouldn't be taken meerly as an evolution of its predecessor. It has taken 10 years for starcraft to be balanced to the way it is today and i would say it is one of the most balanced if not the most balanced games ever created. When it gets released SC2 is going to look like a gong show in comparison - we cannot expect it to be a broodwar killer/replacer right off the bat. If both Blizzard and the community put in the amout of work that has been put into bw then there is no reason why it cannot be as great a success - it just will take time. It has taken patch 1.08 for the game to be balanced... and that was not 10 years to my knowledge... 3d is friggin worrying. Not A SINGLE game in 3d has a gameplay as smooth as good old 2d sprite. W3 was a humongous deception and I am very very very very afraid this will be the same. I don't share Lee Sang-Ho point of view, it's 20% anticipation and 80% worry for me. I want to be wrong about this, so bad. Edit : Happy Birthday Bine! | ||

If SC2 is released in a form that is compatible with e-sports broadcast, there will be many new gamers and the entire industry will develop. However if it comes out in a form that is not easy to broadcast, like WarCraft 3, StarCraft fans will focus on the sequel while the original league will suffer a decline", expressing a cautious mindset. although i don't believe this leak before i see media for myself, this is probaly the best statement of whats going to happen if they really release sc2. | ||

Wtf is with this attitude? Do you honestly think blizzard is going to use outdated shit to release a new game? Do people think blizzard doesn't know that we don't want a 'slow' game? Just because WC3 was slow doesn't mean SC2 would also be... I can't wait tbh. | ||

So basically what I'm saying is that I would imagine SC is a large enough franchise not to jeopardize by half assing anything unless they plan to release World of Starcraft shortly afterwards... | ||

If they put the time and effort into it, and just give us a burger, no matter how much we dress it up it's going to be a fucking burger. We have a great community with a lot of good input, but regardless.. It can still be good, but you're not replacing steak with a burger sir. I feel very sorry for the developers of this game, they have their work cut out for them to meet our standards. If it's the same pace of War3 or slower fuck it, I'm sticking to BW. Especially if they newb the game up. respect for the "gourmet" many ppl mix it up with gourmand.anyways, someone stated we should have no worries as sc2 will come around 2011 if they announce it this year- true. if the game switches to 3D it will lose it's speed. I mean what's the point- they already have Dota heroes that are 3D models of hydra/lurk/link n stufff, they just put those, replace heroes with sc:bw ones, put healing tents instead of medics to heal the army, give attack 50 to the command center/nexus/hatchery and voilla! an amazing sc2 there is a reason why sc:bw is the best. nobody respects the game because of it's graphics, how it shows the fish swimming in water, leaves falling down the trees, rocks falling off the cliffs as lings run down, etc. P.S. bockit - if you check blizzard "public opinion" forums you'll see why sc2 won't have any of the things skilled gamers want - blizz ask for the public opinion and a bunch of kids swarm in saying "i want automatic micro, i want to see my hero marine cry for his lost medic,i want the game to require pentium10 so i'm the only one in my school who can play the game with such cool graphics, etc." | ||
