As Starcraft 2 is approaching, this question has been on my mind for a while.

Bear in mind, that this relates to when Starcraft 2 is available and that the question concerns playing, modelling, texturing and programming etc.

Starcraft 2 for me. When sc2 will be out Warcraft 3 will be way out of its league... Maybe Warcraft 4 vs Starcraft 2 in the future will be a greater challenge for me ;)

Depend the kind of world you need

it depends how many of the good mapmakers leave wc3.

For a mapper that wan't a futuristic environment SC2 will probably be way better with a better engine editor capacity and a bit better 3D.

But if you want a medieval look wc3 will hold the line for a few years I think.

Until... wc4 lol

I'll go pure Starcraft 2 until I beat the game (Campaign) Then depending how many people still play Warcraft I'll continue to play the custom games on that until mappers get some good maps out.

Wc3 ----> More Anime and Sc2!

I kinda like Sc2 because it's scripting language is based on C (Galaxy), which I know better than the language that JASS is based on. Plus many Blizzard staffers stated that their map editor would be much better.

The only difficult decision here will be whether I start the Campaign or StarEdit first.

With all the awesome things they have promised to add in sc2 for map makers? Hell yeah, here SC2 here I come. I mean, multiplayer campaigns, automatic leak removal, and I think they were talking about passwords for editing maps and such. EPIC. :D
What I'd like to see too is that you could upload your maps to your battle.net profile so people can see you made those maps and download it from there.


I think I'll switch from girls to Starcraft 2 once it comes out.

LOL.

Edit: found the part where blizz talked about map locking.

Will the new map editor support locking maps? People hate losing credit for a map.

[Dustin Browder] Yes, we are planning to support this feature. We hope that this feature will give the modding community more incentive to create their own original maps."

I'm not going for sc2.. Sticking with Warcraft a little bit more, Ive found something called a LIFE!!!! its amazing what you can find :)

NOTE: Blizzard makes their pre-released games seem so awesome but when they actually come out its not what people expected.

THINK about this
How many times have blizzard failed? IF blizzard cant even manage to make war3 without causing so many problems to themselves and the members.... what makes you think they can manage a bigger engine, and yet let alone how many times they will fuck up.

Like people say- before riding a 2 wheeler, learn to ride one with training wheels first!

I'll check out Sc2 and mod for it a while, but I'll probably still pop in for wc3 every now and then. But I'm not sure if I'll mod much for wc3 anymore, I'd be to angry with all the custom features I'm missing out on. :p

THINK about this. How many games have Blizzard made that are awesome. Every game is going to have some kind of problem with it. That's why you patch it. They have been working on Starcraft 2 for quite a long time, so it should be pretty good. Of course there will be problems, but so does every game.

You can bet your ass Starcraft 2 will be more than Dota and warcraft 3 would ever hope to be.


Great Game play,Great storyline,Great sounds, and great graphics are elements of a great game.

Unfortunately for the other games SC2 has all 4 of them :rolleyes:

  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    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
