I too belive they are talking about some kinda of newbie lobbies or AMM system. Im not too worried by those statments..neat interview.. Too bad that they send some guy that barley knows SC when the writer addmited that his ''journalist'' buddy or whatever was better. I would like to hear the perspective and details of the game from the guy that owned him twice in a row.. Now that would be intresting  | ||

You get a nice replay to watch and work from. I can't imagine it being a handicap system... AMM is almost standard in nearly every online game now, and it'll serve the purpose they want. Thanks for the translation! Well a handicap system as a game mode is what I meant :> On July 18 2007 16:48 XCetron wrote: wait, darktemplars into twilight archon? Didn't blizzard say that at the moment you can use either 2 hts or 2 dts (not sure about 1 of each, I forget). | ||

Probably wants a way for first-timers / extreme newbies to be able to play each other and have fun without getting destroyed. Presently, on battle.net you don't really know the skill of your opponent when joining a random public game. There could be special game lobbies where you go if you are a first timer, which would be better than AMM in some ways, since in AMM some people at the low ranks just have new accounts or reset. Good point, I hope that's the case, because that could be pretty cool for first timers | ||

Hah, I still remember my very first game online with SC. I was terran and so was my oppenent. It was 1/1 on the map 'Blue night in Seoul'. I had like a couple factory units and a bunker at my choke, when i recall a ton (probably like two dropships Lol) of goliaths get droped in my base complelty bypassing my awesome defenses. I was owned and i freakin loved it. It was getting killed so easily that inspired me to keep trying. And to this day, thats probably a huge factor in that i still play BW like every freakin day. Because every time i lose to someone I can learn from my mistakes.. there is always room for improvement.. always someone better then you..always something higher to strive for.. | ||

Ok, if I'm playing total scrub newbie, scrub newbie should be dead in the shortest possible amount of time so I can play the next person, no god damn atrifical game lengthening bullshit :[ I ENJOYED getting destroyed when I was starting out, it makes the few victories that much more satisfying! i think what he meant was to make the single player campaign better, so that single player prepares people better for multiplayer. i think we can all agree that sc single player could have done better with preparing people for multiplayer. I doubt that he has in mind any shit like with the war3 gold gathering system (10, 7, 3 i think based on population). it's very reassuring to know that they will have korean progamers balancing it in beta. they'll definately make sure that no shit gets added like leveling and crap like that. what i say is take your time blizzard. i aint going anywhere, but if you fuck up, you'll be raping starcraft and millions of fans. | ||

Im not certain if im understanding your post correctly, but by ambitious he means that they are trying to get it out SOONER then in the past. And he said 3 1/2 to 4 years. Not 3. Being "FAR more" ambitious then three and a half years sends tingles down my spine too - of a different kind.. | ||
