    Licensing our code.

    ASSIGNMENTS in this context refers to the previously mentioned ASSIGN[ing] of [..] RIGHTS, i.e. ALL OF YOUR RIGHTS as author or creator. Note: It does not say that Blizzard would hire you into its creative department (would be great though :rolleyes:), or force you to make more maps...

    Licensing our code.

    I'll have this as a finishing thought before the whole litany is repeated over and over again. And don't feed the IP kraken unless you don't mind feeding the IP kraken.

    Licensing our code.

    No. 1 means licencing for commercial purpose, which I'm totally fine with, and surely many users, especially if they map for fun and not for financial interest No. 2 means total control over user-created IP, which is the whole reason of this dilemma I can't quite see your reasoning of...

    Licensing our code.

    My point is that it would completely suffice if Blizz stated "whatever you make with this editor of ours, you can't make any money out of it but through us"; instead they're stating "whatever you make with this editor of ours already belongs to us."

    Licensing our code.

    That's a very interesting debate. Let me just ask: Who says so? Blizzard could easily pick the top 10 most popular user maps and sell their respective modified versions as bonus content. It's their IP as soon as Galaxy goes online. Blizzard could as easily claim any brilliant and popular game...

    Enthusiasm with SC II mapmaking

    After all the hype they made about it, I actually expected Blizz to make the Galaxy Editor ready for custom script as it comes, instead of having some mapmaker/programmers implement it in their free time.

    Enthusiasm with SC II mapmaking

    Sounds like a solid résumé.

    Enthusiasm with SC II mapmaking

    Thanks for your opinion, Ioannes. My Galaxy Editor bothered me about being offline. But maybe there's a secret switch or sth. I can't remember reading THAT in the WC3/TFT EULA. If so, Blizzard would have any reason to sue some of the companies that made a proper game out of popular WC3 mods...

    Enthusiasm with SC II mapmaking

    It's been some time, I've finally grown up and such, and well, looking back to this awesome forum after half a year (I haven't been gaming much neither dealt with map-making at all), I'd kind of like to get some impressions of how well of a reception the Galaxy editor is getting amongst...

    Blizzard's First Mapping Contest

    I'm more than curious to see which types of maps will shape up out of this contest after all. I mean out of those people who do not intent to hold back their "truly original" ideas.

    Starcraft 2 Pre-Order Price Fluctuating

    The premium pricing is just outrageous

    OMG and some news

    Absolutely. Stereotypical thinking is ... (missing the words) not a good thing to get used to. If taken seriously. Yet on the other side, it's the basis for most jokes. (This is getting too much OT.) Back to colors: If random color assignment is one idea, then on the other extreme you'd have...

    OMG and some news

    There is no implication in my comment whether pink as girly colour is to be seen a rather good or bad thing. Just a neutral statement. Stereotypical, maybe. Out of this world? What gives?

    New official commercial

    Sry. This was meant literally and not meant to attack in any way. Thanks for posting your opinion and enlightening me ;) Admittedly, "gloreyy" and "horroaarr" do sound over the top, but then, as kingbdogz points out, it's Mengsk's voice from off, so it may be adequate artistically. Here's...

    OMG and some news

    Pink = No.1 girly color. Kerrigan = girl (or used to be) => there you go! ;)

    New official commercial

    So enlighten me (and many others non native speakers): (1) which accent is it actually, and (2) what would YOU prefer?

    Do you really want chat rooms? Hell yeah.

    Btw that's a cool band name you made up there: Husky and the kitties :D (some music producers here to pick that up?)

    Beta phase 1 has ended

    no need for criminal acts. just pay the premium, slip the disc into your drive, install and forget about everything else.

    So... SC2 makes me wonder -.-

    I totally agree. Yet perfectionism could end up desastrous as well, especially when a developer doesn't know where to stop and be satisfied with what has been made. Here's a nice example from Wc3: Most of the extra buildings such as dens, huts and nests have no building animation. Well, wasn't...
