Not sure if I'm going to get SC2 anymore

....

That's more what I was getting at.

The only restrictions I see are adding people, and chat rooms. First one is most likely going to be fixed with some workaround by Blizzard, but second they've said will be only done for Clans I think. They're not game-breaking issues.

Perhaps not, but that doesn't eliminate the fact that if these issues aren't fixed, it'll still lose sales.

And 2-P one-ups everyone in the thread. As those are the primary issues people have, other than chat monitoring, but whining about such a thing is pretty childish in the grand scheme.

Why don't we wait for it to come out? We don't know what they will end up doing. World of Warcraft was going to have Orcish Priests instead of shamans originally, and hawkstriders were going to be named cockostriders.

Well, I might just it get, if only to play around with the editor.
I don't know though. :/

Its a fun game and there isn't much that would interfere with me having fun playing the game. I'm going to get it and i don't see any reason not to if you want to play a great rts.

... people play Blizzard games for the games not the editors?

 

[punwisp]

Cant use the editors without playing the game

 

[tooltiperror]

I have not been on WC3 for the past two years except for testing on WorldEdit.

Case and point?

Ehh

 

[tooltiperror]

Technicalities are technicalities. No one cares.

There's a big difference between playing games (whether offline or online), and pressing the Test Map button in World Edit, and playing maps that you didn't make is much different than playing maps you did make.

Not really, your still playing the game

 

[Sevion]

That's not the point they're trying to make...

Because they're the greatest RTS developer of all time. I mean just look at Starcraft 1. 12 years and people are still playing it even though the graphics are primitive.

I thought it was B.net that made sc1 successful - the chat channels, clans, etc. since as far as game-play I liked age of empires about as much as SC1

 

[rover2341]

You must not lose faith in blizzard, just compare them to other games (not made by blizzard to have a fair compersion).

You dont want to end up like this girl who lost faith in her venting machine...sad story.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7I8IFIlzLpY&feature=related

lol Epic link.

Battle.net would be pretty useless if the editor is how it is. The reason why games like wc3 are still being played is because of the multiplayer feature and the editor. Playing the same RTS game over and over gets boring and that's what makes a game die of in 1-3 years. If the game has a editor that allows people to make all types of games, the game doesn't get boring because of all the custom maps that are different genre of games that you can still play.
