It is pretty impressive.

But that's about it since it really is just an imitation and SC2 editor is too limited to get it anywhere near as good as the actual WoW.

Meh, could just be the automated removal from youtube that took the video accidently down, there are other World of Starcraft videos that they didn't remove, doesn't make much sense to delete only one of them...

Also:
They put out a tool to let us do anything and then shut us down when we get too good with it?

Apparently you're only allowed to use the name "World of Starcraft" as long as your project doesn't get somewhat popular.

The weird thing is how Blizzard is acting, they have never shown real care or interest in the custom game field. I could call my game World of Starcraft easily in Battle.net 1.0 and it wouldn't have been a big deal? I mean I am pretty sure there is a World of Starcraft on Wc3.

It really confuses me how Blizzard is acting, because if they want their systems to be more like Valve they can't be so fickle when it comes to Custom Map designers.

MIZ, I shall explain.

First of all this isn't blizzard. this is Activision. There is a difference- Blizzard is a company that makes few but quallity games. Activision spams games. The reason why this pissed activision is because they are affraid of a new dota- it is a phenomenom- a small mod, with MILLIONS of fans, one of the biggest COMPETITIVE games. And they have NO CONTROL. You have told me that you haven't played SCII. I, as a player with close to a 1,000 league games played (and a couple of hundret custom games) I can tell you that the SCII melee is the finest RTS game I have ever played. The mixure between a city builder, micro and macro is just amazing. ( BlooDCounT <- SCII fanboy) Only the old Command and Conquer can be compared to SCII (because you have brutal battle systems there, the SCII is a bit too common)



My point is, too much work and resourses have been put into this game so that would be the leading competitive cyber sport in the world, so that some modders can abuse the ideas from BLIZZARD's WOW and shake the throne of SCII.

Or the shortest version-> Blizz doesn't want to split the SCII gamers, not until the final expansion has come out.

The video on youtube went viral and there were several articles about it on the Internet. Some writers misunderstood the entire thing and made it sound like a standalone game. That's probably what got Blizzard's attention and made them react.

Anyways, it's all cleared out now and they're flying the creator down to Blizzard HQ and giving him a guided tour.

Not going to defend what blizzard did, but a lot of news articles spreading this around DID NOT MENTION that it was a sc2 mod. Blizzard usually contacts the modders\takes the map of B.net if they have an issue - I'm betting it was some guy in the Blizzard Activision legal department who didn't really know what sc2 looked like. (Taken from his thread: "We talked for a while and apparently some people from Blizz were concerned I was developing the game somehow outside of SC2.")

Not that they could really say "Ooops, we were wrong" at that point. The guy was getting job offers and things like that.

From what I have heard and read, Blizzard do not plan to create their own WoS (World of Starcraft) and that is why they haved called in this mod's developer(s?) to a meeting. They are actually planing (from what I have heard, but rumors will allways be rumors) to support this mod with money, serverhosting and additional models. Hope this is a true rumor!

Blizzard supporting a mod with money, servers and models? Yea right..

They didn't even do that for DotA. They won't do it for WoS either.

    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
