Wonder if remasters of D1,D2 and WC3 are also in the works.Makes sense to push those games onto bnet 2.0 if theyve already got that planned for brood war. Didn't they already release updates for D2/WC3? Also they're obviously not using the same "ancient original bnet servers", you think they still have servers from 1998 running the show? They've obviously migrated that shit to more efficient modern hardware multiple times by now. I was referring to the bnet interface inside those old games, not the actual servers.Sorry for any confusion.I just can't see them updating Bnet 1 with matchmaking etc when they've got Bnet 2.

They've already remastered the BW music.Actually they did a damn good job with it.

Yea, I agree with that, but i'm not going to pretend it has nothing to do with nostalgia, it most certainly does. I just don't want them to change the sounds, but they can easily make them better.

- StarCraft 1 digital copy is sold out. How can you be sold out of a digital copy? You can't! Unless you didn't want people to buy it because you were about to release a remastered version :D
- GSL Finals will feature a BW showmatch. I wonder if it will be an BW HD showmatch. hmmm
- CEO of Blizzard Mike Morhaime will be live at the event, seems like a good time to announce something
- The recent article on seoulsports said that a BW HD announcement could be made as soon as a few days.
- If you really want to stretch, on the bunker today, NoRegreT just opens by saying,
"so, thoughts on BW HD?" then Artosis looks him dead in the eyes and says,
"but it's just a rumour" Then NoRegreT says,
"It is? Well, what would be your reaction if it did happen?"
Seems like they know something we don't!!
GET HYPED GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't wait for all the normies to start talking about StarCraft: Brood War. Can't wait for noobs to come on TL.net and ask "What's the best build?", and give their professional opinions about what needs to be nerfed. It's gonna be so much fun.

this dude just infested my cc 400 minerals gone down the drain, not only that but it makes banelings (WITHOUT THE USE OF LARVA) that do 500 damage!!! WTF nerf please

wow this thread is already so toxic Does the fact that you are playing an old game have to make you feel so much better about yourselves that you have to shit on the only potential newcomers? Or do you prefer to stay in the dead water of a well and enjoy your little piece of sky? I would just stick to single player campaign if just to avoid any of you guys' negativity

Those toxic people are just the minorities of the BW community. Don't worry.

Not surprised that you are from the SC2 forum, where any mentioning of BW is quickly countered with "BW elitism".
Newcomers are welcome. SC2 people shitting on this community or the game or giving stupid suggestions without actually having played the game much is not. There is a difference.

Toxicity is mostly against SC2 people popping up in this forum. Go figure.

Dude, it was a joke, but I forgot to encapsulate it in the [sarcasm][/sarcasm] tag, so that was my bad. Especially the "it's gonna be great" part.

I'll be the pessimistic guy and say the sold out part could be due to running out of keys. Remember, SC key is basically 13 digits combination (pure digits, no letters) that achieve a specific pattern. The game is nearly 20 years and made a huge success that was not planned for at all. Isn't that possible?
Thoughts?

Thoughts? No, because the digital keys are like 20 digits long and alpha-numeric.
Even if we were to entertain your idea, 10^13 is more than the world's population * 10^3. Even if only one key out of a thousand met the requirement to be a key, there would be a key for every person on the planet, which as you well know is thousands of times more people than those who have purchased BW at any time.

Just reading about the announced event gives me the chills, sucks that someone took the ID eyewater. Mike Morhaime admitted one of the biggest mistakes ever was the way blizzard handled bw in korea, now he is back on the big stage ... 1 more week

It is only 13 digits only in this format "xxxx - xxxxx - xxxx"
Also, it is possible that not the 13 digits together used to form the pattern but the 3 parts are used together. Example
There is a specific pattern to be met with the first 4 digits, another pattern with the 2nd part and another pattern with the 3rd part.
This could limit the number of keys to some millions.
