Good luck with the editor....It's too complex for my tastes...as in...TOO complex.

On a side note:The terrain you can make with it is AWSOME to teh EXTREME :D

I only liked playing Starcraft because you could mass zombies, rush in, get completely massacred and still enjoy yourself to the end. That was impossible in Warcraft 3.

I think they should keep it like it was.

Holy crap. The dude sounds like he's having sex <_<'

Anywho. I think SCII won't be too complicated. Though, I do figure things out pretty fast. Oh well. I can't wait for it. I'm gonna buy it on night of release >=D. But right now my internet keeps pooping out. -_-'

Starcraft 2 melee will still be about massing, despite all the new content. Blizzard are an intelligent company and they will design the game to suit its fan base. What they are doing is expanding on that so people who who enjoy starcraft and warcraft 3 single player campaigns will get what they want out of the game, people who enjoy starcraft's melee will obviously get what they want and with the new additions to the starcraft editor (hero levels and xp, hero inventories) mappers and eventually warcraft 3 custom gamers will get what they want.

Whether your game is starcraft or warcraft 3, starcraft 2 will cater for all your strat gaming needs. (well except if you truly hate sci-fi and love prancing around in your leotard and cape.)

Blizzard are a smart company, and that's why they won't be making it about massing. They are going to make it visually entertaining... They're going to make it so that it is playable for tournaments, and just like in Warcraft 3, the tournaments will be completely different to most melee games. The game will cater to the Professional gamer, not the Melee players.

No way. It can't be more complicated than the original one. I mean, they got like a few dousends of strategies per race and you could still mass anyway.

And warcraft3 is not complicated, I can't see why people think that.
There are tons of games out there that are much more complicated than warcraft3. Even starcraft1 is more complicated than warcraft3 to me:eek:
If people want to talk complicated game then they should try playing homeworld2 or maybe even the first age of empires, that is complicated, that is a game that is based on microing due to the missing attack-move function;)

I think not, but some of my friends think starcraft2 will be alot more complicated and evolve tons more strategy like WC3, which they seem to dislike over the basic gameplay starcraft has where all it takes is massing 1 type of unit

Dipends- if you are a pro at starcraft- it'll be moderate, if you are a noob or have played the game a little(like me) prepere for a world of pain.The main idea in starcraft II is to controll a big army who will die fast, BUT you have a lot of ways to counter or neutralize the enemy units(i myself didn't get it, i think that they are reffering to the armor demig system.in warcraft III each armor took moore dmg only from one type.I think that in Starcraft II things are gonna be moore complicated, so i think that it will require moore thinking then warcraft III)

In starcraft there weren't even armor types or percentual armor reduction, it was just: 1 armor stops 1 damage.

not true. Firebat attacks don't work so well agaisnt heavy armor which the zealot had. Though it barbeques zerglings for lunch due to the zerglings not having any armor at all.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • 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
