Not if I can help it.

Besides, as long as DotA is around, it won't die.

Then why not host a new game?
Or, if those games aren't popular anymore, make a new map. :p

Im almost quiting my map,

because SC2 is a shit (in my point of view) and WC3 is almost dead.

so. goodbye blizzard, you don't have any more fucking game that calls my attention. warcraft 2 was cool, diablo 2 was cool, warcraft 3 was awesome, and now... well... I feel dorry to say. Wacraft 3 is dead, we are just necromancers trying to ressurect something no one cares anymore.

this forum is desert.

only stunota is running on the net.

well.

guys.

this is the end.

My only regret in my entyre life was to to play DOTA instead of using that time to make maps.

Yeah warcraft looks about as alive as it was before starcraft 2's release. In other words, its pretty alive. I can host a game and people will join pretty quickly. That's alive enough for my needs.

I think starcraft 2 might kick up more when people release more maps. Right now people are still trying to figure out the UE and there are no great maps, especially in comparison to Warcraft 3.

And my own custom maps get joined pretty quickly as well. You just need a bit of patience when hosting. People joining can take 15 minutes or longer sometimes, but your obscure map doesn't exactly beg for people to join it, no matter how good it is.

I can almost guarantee that Sc2 will die before Wc3 even starts dying

Yeah, I've been reading about several negative features in the new GE, including a 5 map limit per battle.net 2.0 account and 20mb limit total for all maps, 10mb for one individual map. Also, censoring for everything, including the name, description, tooltips and item/unit names. If the censorship is at all like WoW it will probably censor words like "satan" and "nazi." Also I heard the new scripting isn't as good as vjass.

With all these downsides, I doubt if as many hardcore warcraft 3 modders are going to make the switch as you might first think.

Warcraft III shalt always live on in our hearts. Anyways, you guys need to start playin' RoC. Those TFT hosts are all bots, and DotA bots at that. Where is the love?! No wonder TFT's dead, too ; there's nothing better to kill a game than use hostbots. People will be "fed up" with playing that game, and won't like it anymore when the bot goes down.

On Reign of Chaos, the hosts are actual people, with actual hearts, with an actual vocation, with actual feelings, with an actual brain (which means they don't play DotA), and yes, we are all trying to do some necromancy out there.

Though the number of players has reduced, Starcraft 2 is disappointing and people will realize it sooner or later. It is a generally accepted fact that after 12 years of expecting an awesome game, Starcraft II doesn't bring that many new things to Starcraft I's gameplay.

I hate human hosts. They're all abusive at least. And takes much longer to start a game too (refreshing). Bots on the other hand, you can keep track of which host your favorite maps and just '/whois' them.

human hosts always had auto-refreshers. and you could do the same with a human host. like what he is hosting? just become a mutual friend and u wont have to /whois, it would just tell you the name by itself.

with that said, i never actually cared who hosted the game. both have their pros and cons. as long as i got the game i wanted, i was happy.

as for me, i stopped playing wc3 awhile ago, because it was just taking up HDD space for me as well. got a new comp tho with a lot more space so i might re-install it soon just for the custom games, since sc2 doesnt have any good ones yet.
honestly i dont think wc3 will die until dota dies, which will be a while. i knew a lot of people who didnt get sc2 and still play wc3 who were on my wc3 friends lsit.
might die when wc4 comes out though (IF they actually make it; hopefully follows storyline where wc3 left off rather than WoW)

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
