When the FUCK is StarCraft 3 coming out?
They're too busy burning Diablo 4 to the ground.
>>737966219why the fuck do you want modern blizzard to make another starcraft game you retard
>>737966219they finished the story just play brood warSC2 is slop
>>737966265SC2 was made at the HEIGHT of the woke era and it had nothing woke in it and it was the best game ever made.
>>737966426No it wasn't retard, it was released right around the time woke was gaining steam but still in infancy.
>>737966219it already did.
Y’all betrayed RTS by switching to mobas and dooming the SC2 scene so don’t come back asking for more now.
RTS games aren't popular nowadays because it's harder to monetize.In fact, I'm shocked that Dawn of War 4 is actually being made.
>>737966219Insider here. Probably sometime after World of Warcraft: Subscribe AgainWorld of Warcraft: Lords of the DeepassWorld of Warcraft: Fires of PizzaovenWorld of Warcraft: Niggershatterand World of Warcraft: The Transrights War
>>737966620RTS games aren't popular nowadays because NO ONE'S FUCKING MAKING ANY. I played the SHIT out of Starcraft, Command and Conquer and Populous back in the day.
>>737966219Literally never.
>>737966219>Starcraft 3 comes out>It still has no star crafting
>>737966219Right after StarCraft Ghost releases.
>>737966426retard
>>737966806https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieZYDU753Vs
>>737966219Didnt SC2 end with Kerrigan going super sayan and fighting god or some shit like that? Also im pretty sure there was a kamehameha battle at some pointHow do you even follow that up?
>>737966932by making her go Ultra Instinct and having her fight multiversal gods
>>737966864I bought an Xbox for Ghost anon.
>>737966743everyone says they want new RTS games, but look at Stormgate. lmao
>>737967105Yeah, or Homeworld 3. Y'all say you want more RTS but when one comes you don't buy it.
>>737966932The bigger badder shows up and eat her super sayjan powers
>Starcraft: Ghost NEVER EVER>Prime Blizz coming back also NEVER EVER
>>737966932Leave it in the past and start anew. Set the game well after the events of SC2 with remodeled factions and at least one new one.(I never played HotS or LotV, so I skimmed the synopses and holy fuck does this sound like some insane retard fanfic bullshit. I mean, Infested Stukov? Are you fucking kidding me? That is some RoS Palpatine-tier nonsense.)
>>737967105Stormgate was fucking dead in the water.I mean a game exclusively for competitive folks?why not just do a shotgun enema instead?
>>737968039the campaign is pay to play though. pretty sure that's sc2 monetization model as well. f2p esports, b2p campaign.
>>737966219Never. First they'd need to retcon into oblivion the shitstain of a story and setting violation that was StarCraft 2. Not to mention to focus on single-player first and multiplayer second with ignoring the tournament faggots and focusing on the casuals. Then and only then we'll get a StarCraft 3 that will be as good as Brood War. With also a multiplayer that would feel organic.>>737967105Because every dev that is trying to make an RTS and not seeing that people don't play RTS for multiplayer and mostly do so to play either the campaign or skirmish do so by doing multiplayer first and everything else second.Hence why AoE4 had a very rough start and why Stormgate is on life-support.All the great RTS games that are still played today were made with single-player in mind first with great and memorable campaigns and multiplayer was a thing later. Not to mention people don't want to play a micro click-fest and instead actually strategize and initiate cool tactics.That's the kind of RTS I want. RTS like they were originally.
>>737967972Or...simply retcon SCII and pretend that game never happened.
>>737968648SC3 starts just like 2 with Raynor in the bar>That was the single worst drunken fever dream i ever had...Zeratul is there too>i told you it was bad idea to watch the ihan crystal while drunkThere you go
>>737968648I would love that
>there are people who hated StarCraft 2>there are people who hated Half-Life 2>there are people who hated Halo 2>there are people who hated Team Fortress 2I always wonder what, exactly, these people would consider a "good" game
>>737966620>RTS games aren't popular nowadaysThey're not popular because nostalgia fags are holding them back and no one wants to take a gamble on a truly modernized take on RTS. Not modernized as in, enshittified slop, but modern as in what people at the time it was popular envisioned RTS would eventually be like in the future. Smart enough AI that macro and micro is less important, allowing the scale to be grown into something more complex and interesting. As opposed to being gaymified into a parody of itself, which really is just what Stormgate and Starcraft 2 are. Caricatures of old RTS games.
>>737968905Nintendo™ games.
>>737968836>Tychus pulls up in a Vulture with a sidecar>"Jimmy! It's your kids! We've gotta go back to the fu- I mean, mission replay!"
>>737966219>I skimmed the synopses and holy fuck does this sound like some insane retard fanfic bullshit. I mean, Infested Stukov?Infested Stukov comes from the N64 version of Starcraft. So that's on the old guard.
>somehow, Emperor Mengsk has returned
>>737968836>>737969684Thought something more dramatic.The UED came back with a far larger force and with their updated tech, quickly conquered the Koprulu sector with the Zerg proving the only actual force to openly fight them to a standstill while the Terrans and Protoss are either going guerilla or making alliances with each other to kick them out. Jim and Artanis are stuck in a bad VR machine that is SCII and they are saved by Tychus, Zeratul and James Raynor who only wanted to get his old man back. From that point on its fighting the UED, the Zerg, the occasional Terrans and Protoss for the Terran campaign which ends with Kerrigan (heavily mutated into something that looks like a SCII Queen) finally getting the bullet from Jim...and James getting to adopt a baby-clone of Kerrigan that he busted out of a lab stuck in the infested platforms over Char. Zerg and Protoss campaigns would be wilder.>>737968851Not only you and me.
>>737968905The campaign in Wings of Liberty was good but the story was poor and both got worse with each release.
>>737966219Theyll reveal it alongside WoW 2. Two more weeks.
>>737968905Wings of Liberty wouldve been my favorite RTS of all time if it wasnt for the completely retarded story
>>737966219Someone post that screenshot of one of the SC2 devs lamenting how a single WOW skin made more revenue than SC2 total revenue
>>737970382WoL was good until the moment they went from kill Kerrigan to saving her.Then it got worse the moment HoTS came.
>>737966219All the people who could make it are either dead or may as well be.
>>737966932Do what Homeworld 3 did That surely will make fans happy
This seems like the best place to ask since the last time I played Star Craft was on A CD for my Mac.To play it now, do you need to download battle net and is it something where you need to always been connected to the internet to be able to play the game?I've dropped out of playing games on PC for the past decade so I'm actually in the dark for this stuff.
Turning Starcraft into a Love story was fucking retarded. Jim knew Kerrigan for like a month. A MONTH.They did a mission or two together. That's it.
>>737967164>>737967105>"The genre being dead is your fault because you didn't buy these bad games made in that genre."This is the same excuse Disney says about people not watching original movies
>>737966219Never. The modern gamer doesn't play RTS's, it's either Heroshooters or dota's when it comes to these type of games.rts's have gone out of fashion the same way games like Quake or unreal have, you'll still find people playing these games, but you'll never see the mass appeal they once had, like in the command of conquer era for RTS games or the unreal era for fragfest arena shooters.
>>737971293>spoilercongratulations on surviving aids for 25 years
>>737966219the entire SC2 team quit and made SC3.No one played it
>>737971560because its badnot franchise ruining bad like Legacy of The Void, but that is because Stormgate had no hope of being a franchise anyway
>>737971560Wait what? The SC2 dev team quit and made a new game?
>>737966743>RTS games aren't popular nowadays because NO ONE'S FUCKING MAKING ANY. I played the SHIT out of Starcraft, Command and Conquer and Populous back in the day.That’s nice, unc.
>>737971560I will literally never play a game that looks like this. Don't make games look like liquid dogshit just to appease sweats. The sweats can and will just use low(est) graphics for graphical clarity. Let normal people enjoy a game that doesn't look like POOPOOPEEPEE.
>>737966743Any that isn't garbageThat's why age of empires 2 is still considered the go to rts game and that game is a few decades old now
>>737971560I don't think that's quite accurate but it may as well be. There are rumors that Blizzard is planning a Starcraft game that isn't an RTS, probably an extraction shooter along the lines of Helldivers 2 that'll probably get cancelled and cannibalized into a new Overwatch game mode.
>>737971560I just hate the art style. AoE2 proves that there is a demand for the old RTS look. So does the Starcraft Remaster. Yet they go with this very cartoony look. At best it's probably just cheaper to do (maybe?), at worse it's just complete artistic misdirection that knee-caps people wanting to ever buy it. Visual direction is paramount for a visual medium like video games. It's not about number of polygons or whatever, either. Basically it is doomed the same fate of AoE4 which also has a completely ugly art direction (but it has Microsoft marketing backing). Tiberium Sun is a great counter example of how art direction can make a kind of mediocre RTS even better.
>>737971560That looks like Beyond All Reason screenshot
>>737971729>The SC2 dev team quit years and years ago>and made a new game?no that's the losers that got hired later to finish up production on the last expansion and then completely failed to capitalize on coop
>>737966219Hopefully never, considering what they did with SC2
Starcraft 2 had such dogshit campaigns that their only worth was a good single character who had to carry the whole thing on their back
>>737967751i was so hyped for ghost in like grade 8, had the game informer magazine article screenshots taped to my wall and everything
>>737966932>Also im pretty sure there was a kamehameha battle at some pointThat was in HotS (the expansion, not the MOBA), between Kerrigan and maybe-Duran. I'm 100% convinced that they let some intern write the story for that one, and said intern had just binged the entirety of DBZ. It was some of the worst writing I've seen, and I'm pretty sure they repeated "Watch out Kerrigan, <enemy> is stronger than anything you've fought before!" like 5 fucking times. Horrendous garbage
>>737972010>At best it's probably just cheaper to do (maybe?),It is. The reason so many games look like this now is its cheaper to hire a calarts fag for pennies than to cut a million dollar check to an actual concept artist with a degree in engineering. The lack of technical expertise even in basics like human anatomy in the designs is why its so uncanny valley and unappealing. Especially when you're trying to make stuff like good looking big robots and tanks.
>>737968931How are nostalgia fags holding the genre back when rts games become more micro heavy and unit focused with abilities, which people liked, to the point moba's took off where it's all micro with abilities but just one unit, moba's took the part apparently people liked the most of modern rts's, removed the concept of multiple units and base building and ran with it, and it was so popular that dawn of war as a franchise killed it self for years trying to chase the trend and make it fit, even Command And Conquer with Tiberium Twilight was chasing down that route, and that killed off the entire franchise, league actually showed that people really didn't give a shit about all the other aspects of a RTS game in the long term lmao.
>>737971553Thank you, so what's the best way to play it?
>>737968905SC > SC2HL > HL2Halo > Halo 2But at least TF2 was better than the originalThough, to be fair, WoL wasn't bad. The story was stupid, and clearly written by someone who didn't care about SC/BW what so ever, but I did enjoy the game and its campaign. It was all downhill from there, however
>>737972324Once again Heart of the Swarm's only redeeming quality is Abathur
>>737967972infested stukov is from starcraft 64
>>737972324>(the expansion, not the MOBA)blizzard should fire their entire marketing department for that fuckup alone
>>737972452Erase the fuck out of 2 but salvage Tychus, Tosh, Abathur and Alarak
>>737972353Mobas were the result of younger generations not wanting to bother with the bloated APM fuckery nostalgiafags like, yes.
>>737972452Abathur and Stukov are basedDehaka is a retard but enjoyable
>>737970029>Jim and Artanis are stuck in a bad VR machine that is SCII and they are saved by Tychus, Zeratul and James Raynor>Jim (...) saved by James Raynoryou ok bro?
>>737971293Depends, what do you want to do? Replay the campaign? Pretty sure you can download the original installer from Blizzard and use a keygen to play it, or just find the files online somewhere. The original version doesn't need the internet or anything. The remaster, cleverly called StarCraft Remastered, is only available via Battle.net, but should still run offline from what I know. I think it's like $10 during salesActually, I just checked, and it seems the original is available for free on Battle.net (in the right-side menu): https://us.shop.battle.net/en-us/product/starcraft-remastered
>>737971385right? coworkers with a blossoming potential relationship IF THEY WEREN'T ACTIVELY AT WAR. that's it. challenge someone to prove jim and sarah were some kind of soulmate using material only from SC/BW and they can't do it
>>737971560Exactly: the SC2 teamWhy the fuck would I want to play something else they've made?
>>737971385look the pussy was just that good, ok
>>737972642yeah the original campaign is free to play with a blizz acct
>>737972587What's the pro...AW SHIT. I wanted to say John! JOHN RAYNOR! FUCK!
>>737972452I'd fucking kill for Abathur to be freed from Kerrigan's dogshit revenge death march
>>737966219Take it slow.
>>737972773
>>737972786He probably started out as an overmind successor type character but then got committee storyboarded into Kerrigan's basement gimp.
>>737972452Abathur and Zagara. I liked them both, and Zagara's mission was a really fun concept>>737972493The best thing about the HotS expansion was Blizzard's joke about renaming Legacy of the Void to Heralds of the Stars
>>737971560It wasn't even the SC team it was just one idea guy ex-manager at blizzard that got already started projects and was told to make sure they finished. He worked on vanilla SC2 and legacy of the void IIRCThen he went full retard, got full of himself and tried to make a sequel to hilarious results. He even hired tasteless mom as an accountant to get tasteless and day 9 to shill his game
WARP FIELD STABILIZED
>>737972540>the bloated APM fuckery nostalgiafags likeNostalgiafags doesn't want APM fuckery. We want good stories, fun campaigns, LAN parties, team games against the CPU, 1v7 against the CPU, UMS maps, and long games where we can mass carriers in peace
>>737973002That's not the majority at all but you have Dawn of War if you want the better Starcraft 2.
>>737972876I really dislike the triangle titties, you just know they were green mountain dew milkers like on their butts until someone said that was problematic and they just copy-pasta'd the stomach chitin again over them on the model.
>>737971385Jim fell hard for Sarah in the original, but it was always in the background. In BW he vowed to kill her after her repeated betrayals. The sequel should have been a bittersweet revenge story, happening in the background of an interstellar war
>>737972540No, moba's are the result of younger generations not caring for the strategy part, in the RTS name.
>>737973209The good thing about Zerg is that they're really malleable. She might wear chitin tits and spikes to the battlefield, but she'll be soft and squishy when off duty
>>737973105I have StarCraft if I want a better StarCraft 2, which is why I'm still playing it
'minder that over 90% of RTS players don't EVER touch multiplayer, and less than 10% of multiplayer games are PvP. Don't let /v/ sweatcucks speak for the fanbase just because they're more tryhard at pointless apm spam due to literal autism. THEY HAVE NO SAY IN THIS. They are the smallest niche of an already niche genre.Multiplayer game design is anti-RTS. Developers purposefully avoid cool units, mechanics and campaigns which are the heart and soul of RTS for the sake of le balance. The delusional elitist comptards have been killing RTS for too long.>Blizzard say 80% of players left after finishing the campaign, and the vast majority of the remaining 20% play arcade and co-op>HerA says 99% of AOE2 players don't touch multiplayer>Ashes of Singularity devs literally say only 2% of all players have ever CLICKED on the multiplayer buttonYou may SEETHE, you may COPE, but RTS is a SINGLE PLAYER ONLY genre. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XehNK7UpZschttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKMrTgmivEk
>>737966219You WILL wait another decade for future hit extraction shooter StarCraft Ghost instead.
>>737972452Abathur is a gift from the heavens given how that campaign went down
>>737966290>they finished the story This>just play brood war Yes>SC2 is slopAgreed
>>737972850John Raynor. Son of Jim Raynor who was discovered to be psychic and was recruited by the Confederates into the Ghosts.Supposedly died in a training accident which also caused Jim's wife to die from grief and sorrow when they heard about this.Mentzen had plans for him (maybe him coming back and revealing that his death was a falsified) but it didn't go anywhere. >>737973241>Jim fell hard for Sarah in the original, but it was always in the background.Not that anon, but I didn't feel anything romantic here in the OG StarCraft nor in BW. It all felt like comradeship and not like something romantic.
>>737973209flat is justice nigga
>>737966219>People were foaming at the mouth because of the 'crazy long' twelve year gap between the release of 1 and 2>Currently on a 16 year gap from the release of 2 and I don't see hardly anyone clamoring for 3>With the bloated development times of modern games there would probably be a 20+ year gap between the release of 2 and 3 if blizzard were start making one right this moment I hate this industry so fucking much
>>737966219>anyone is capable of making a game about space marines fighting various alien races such as animal-like fleshy melee units that feast, lay eggs, and act like a hivemind>only got warhammer, helldivers, and very terrible starship troopers games
>>737973748I think anyone who cared has gotten to the point where they know that if there were to be a 3, it would probably be ruined because modern vidya industry be like that. Be happy the first two existed and honestly pray a third one never does, since blizzard aren't the same studio that made the first two.
>>737966219>he wants modern Blizzard to make SC3Also they already killed SC2 with the Zerg expansions. What a fumble of retarded story decisions. Makes me doubt it was made by the same people who made the vanilla campaign
>>737973790>very terrible starship troopers gamesThat aren't even real games just rehashes of a game that came out in like fucking 2005.
>>737973667Imagine Johny Raynor showing up out of nowhere now>Where is dad?>Banging his space goddes girlfriend in some pocket dimension or something
>>737973667>Not that anon, but I didn't feel anything romantic here in the OG StarCraft nor in BW.It's there right from the start, where Sarah reprimands him for picturing her naked the instant they meet. After that, if you pay attention, you can tell that he's more protective of her than he is of Duke or Mengsk during the various briefing scenes. Also, the whole reason he shows up when Kerrigan is reborn is because she was subconsciously calling out to him while in the chrysalid. Again, it's very much in the background - where it belongs - but it's still there
>>737966219>custom game community is completly dead now>all the actual fun custom games are never played and the last scrap of people only play the same retarded "competitive" trashIt's genuine impressive how fast it was killed. Modern blizzard nowdays can only destroy, not create
>>737973748It's fascinating when you look back at the development of StarCraft, and how much changed along the way. And yet, despite a design overhaul and an engine rewrite, the game came out only 3 years after Warcraft 2
>>737966426WoL was at the top with aoe2 and broodwar but it shat the bed with swarm and the protoss expansionNowadays RTS devs ask pros their opinion and the majority of them are sc2 players with autism (like scarlot) who enjoy going back and forward with their blob army
>>737974081I like the asteroid mining they had going on back then
>>737966932I quit starcraft during the Kamehameha battle, i failed the quest cause i was in a rush...never looked back lol
>>737974126God, the soul is so thick you can cut it with one of the perfectly flat pieces of debris the space station leaves behind after they blow it up
>>737974126The shot of the beers establish the setting in like three seconds
>>737974153I forgot what site I got these from, but it might still be in my history
>>737974289Found it: http://blizzardarchive.com/pub/Images/Screens/Sc1_2/clean.htmlLooks like you were able to burn doodads like trees at one point, and the pylons were flying
>>737974126They don't make em like they used to...
>>737966219If we're lucky, not until after the industry crashes and all of Blizzard is replaced by white males who don't hate themselves, or their country of origin and culture.
>>737974273OG Terran were redneck as fuck
>>737974010I tried to get into it again and I just can't. I got sucked in at the beginning in the git-gut hype but then just dropped it and now its like, man it just wasn't even a good RTS to begin with. Even the pro scene was rigged and full of win traders making asian gambling addict rings millions. Axiom was fun but then the guy bankrolling it died of asscancer, now the franchise is cursed forever.
>>737973982That would be utterly hurtful. You finally come back and first thing you want to do is to see your old man, your only living relative, and everyone tells you he disappeared with the woman that killed his best buddy.BTW, also small info on John. He was supposed to be in the 1st game where his death would be one of the many factors for Jim's character development and why he'd finally go full SCREW THE CONFEDERACY and side with Mengsk.>>737974002Their first meeting may very well be Jim having the single most healthiest reaction to a woman a man can have. Him being protective of her would be due to what crazy shit was done to Kerrigan with the Ghost Program (and the fact she was that loyal to Mengsk, not to mention that the two would already be fire-forged at this point). And Kerrigan calling for Jim subconsciously would also be due to how she got betrayed and Jim was the only person she could trust.Maybe they had a budding romantic relationship in the making, but after her getting infested and her killing Fenix this went down the drain.
>>737974371I wonder if they removed the multi-addons because it made building too restrictive? It looked really cool
>>737971658legacy of the void was fine, the campaign was actually pretty good and had some challenging maps unlike the other two
>>737972642I'd just play the original, and maybe 2.The two wrinkles is finding an installer that works since after Mac switched from Intel, they no longer play 32-bit apps. And bigger, it's finding a reputable source since I might sill be on a mac, but even I know it can be targeted with malware.I see download.cnet has it, but kinda apprehensive. So does that mean I'm stuck with downloading battle net?
>>737974659>So does that mean I'm stuck with downloading battle net?It would be the easiest way to do it, that's for sure. The only copy I have lying around is for PC, so that won't help you, I'm afraid
>>737974631>unlike the other twoWoL is by far the hardest campaign thougheverest.
>>737973619>Let's land right in front of the giant fuckoff ultralisk (and the zerglings swarming beside it) and start blasting>That should do the trick ???What... did he think would happen?
>>737974562>Maybe they had a budding romantic relationship in the makingFair, it might not have been as crystal clear as I initially put it. Still, a big part of the reason why Jim's vow is a big deal, is because he had to watch the woman he (probably) loved be corrupted by the Zerg and turned into a monster. So when he's pining after her at the start of WoL, my eyes immediately rolled back
>>737974631I unironically liked the unit change thing but I felt a lot of them arrived way too late and the story was way too retarded.
>>737966426The game where theres a woman protoss, space latina with a burned face, black super general, black super ghost agent, and like 3 guys half assing a southern accent? And you still to call it not woke?
>>737974957>What... did he think would happen?"God, this is going to make such an awesome fucking shot in a cinematic for a video game"
>>737966620Its still hilarious they used the /tg/ design for Macha
>>737975019You better not be dissing Protoss women
>>737972324They did it again for the epilouge mission that was priced seperately of course.
>>737975183I bet they did, but their sins are for God to judge; not me
>>737974768Yeah, I'm double shit out of luck since even if I found my old StarCraft CD, that's for Power PC, which is extremely out of date.I'll probably just go with battlenet and annoying DRM over an untrusted third party. But last question, I looked the installer from Cnet, and it's only 7.6mb, is that right?
>>737975019>black super ghost agentHe was genuine cool as fuck. Too bad blizzards are cucks and let the one decent character canonly die
>>737975341Doubt it. I think the StarCraft demo was like 10 MB back in the day, since it took all night to download on a 56k modem. But it could be the Battle.net installer, since that's required for the 64-bit version of the game
>>737974782if you replayed them ever you'd know that's not even remotely true, lov is so much harder. i unironically could not beat the last map of LoV without changing difficulty because i didn't feel like lowering myself to looking up a strat or wasting time with trial and error.you can beat WOL using only meme units and barely even trying until the last map and even that is easy if you use tanks/vikingsfor hots you don't ever need to try and can do whatever and win basicallyall assuming the highest difficulty setting anyway>>737974971to enjoy sc2 past early wings of liberty you need to ignore the story
>>737975552I'll avoid unzipping it and taking the invasive, but safer rout.Thanks for the feedback.
>>737975618You can always chuck it up on Virus Total if you're curious, assuming that site can identify viruses for Mac. Either way, enjoy. I replay the campaign every few years and always have a blast
>>737972773John Starcraft
>>737975081>no kisses
>>737972908His nose always looked like a mouth to me
>>737966219More like StarShaft because all Blizzard fags need to take it up the ass.
>>737975698Think the mystery is solved, I ran it through the site you suggested and the file name came back as>net.battle.bootstrapper

>>737975896No holes either, but she probably can give you some psionic mind orgasm and absorb the cum through the skin
>>737975608The last stand mission where you play as protoss was buttfrustrating.Same as the last mission, mainly because I elected to destroy the nydus network and fliers were a pain in the ass to deal with.I did not encounter any snags in LotV, so it can't be harder.We don't talk about hots.
>>737975896Psionic pressure. She can plant her lips anywhere she wants on you, even underneath your clothes

>>737976608you were probably just bad at the game when you played wings because that shit is easy even the last map is afk tier after a few minutes.the protoss map is kinda hard if you wanna max out the mission reward but you mostly just abuse phoenixes and void rays i thinki played them all at the same time and half of legacy was autism optimizer shit like that.unless i missed the op crutch unit/upgrade which is certainly possible, i did not test much stuff
>>737966219Fuck off we need Warcraft IV first
>>737975019All that stuff was in the original.
>>737966219>change Starcraft 2's name to Starcraft 3>make it worse>change it back to Starcraft 2Blizzard™
never played 2 after they split it into separate games.fuck em
>>737977000>the protoss map is kinda hard if you wanna max out the mission reward but you mostly just abuse phoenixes and void rays i thinkI remember from the one time i played the brutal campaign i spammed a fuckton of cannons everywhere and i think phoenixes for the brood lords
>(Tortured Roar!)
>>737966219Hopefully neverBest to let sleeping dogs lie
>>737977000I am by all accounts an above average RTS player. WoL on brutal had more challenge to it than LotV. Is what it is.Maybe they nerfed the campaign? I played it on launch. Completed it in 2 days of no sleep while a friend attempted the same. Good times.Also checked.
>>737966707Do you got a source on the transrights war? i doubt they would do a whole expansion about that. niggershatter sounds believable though
Are you mentally ill? Why would you want them to even try to make it?
>>737974101>Nowadays RTS devs ask pros their opinionand they wonder why they all flop
Is this true, /v/?
>>737977657i played liberty day 1 too and it was still easy as fuck then. i didn't play void until recently, when i was replaying the series, though it doubt they changed either campaign.
What the fuck were they thinking?
As far as I've heard, Blizzard has a new Starcraft FPS in development. But they've also sold the rights to develop a Starcraft game to Nexon.
>>737977957World of Warcraft but StarCraft
>>737977903It's true, that young gentleman did indeed work for Blizzard!Crazy, but it happened...!
Remember what they took from you.
>>737977957Worst part is, the protoss campaign was kinda nice, better than HotSThen they pull out this fucking epilogue
>>737966426>Tidings of DOOOOOOOOMSC2 was embarrassing garbage
>>737977957It was a fitting conclusion to Kerrigan's story. It's not unbelievable in a game with psionic space gods.
>>737978696>It was a fitting conclusion to Kerrigan's story.No it wasn't. Are you retarded? Nothing in SC2 was a fitting continuation to brood war.
SC never had a good story and there are more bad missions than good missions in SC1
>>737978783People praise Brood War's story when everything in it relies on everyone being retarded and trusting Kerrigan, and the UED's entire existence doesn't make any sense.
>>737978910>Durrr how did the ued knowNot important at all, now go back to your faux dbz love story you ape
>>737966219Never because Koreans will bomb blizzard hq if ANYTHING changes in their gook click APM trash.BAR is free. Come home white man.
>>737966265>modern blizzard to make another starcraft gameExactly because of that. Contamination, appropriation and degradation of the IP. The same thing they did with names like Homeworld or Baldur's Gate.
>>737978768>Kerrigan sits on her space platform and senses an even greater threat looming on the horizon>I made protoss-zerg hybrids in service of an incomprehensible ancient power
>>737974965Yep. Would've been a fullblown one if it weren't for all the factors in game 1. Hence why Jim having feelings for Kerrigan seems unusual and out of place in SCII.>>737975883Holy...darn. Another John to the meme.>>737977507More like:[[Roar of Utter Rage]]
>>737979071>The reason for arrival of the newly introduced enemy faction doesn't matterThis is why you get shit story in Starcraft II.
>>737966219Next sc game is going to be a space marine knockoff
>>737979301Xel'Naga were not gods. Only super-scientists that were beaten by stick-wielding and rock-throwing Protoss.
>>737978910
>>737966426No, it was finished just as it was getting started.
>>737979436And then they all got eaten after they decided "hey let's make an all-devouring intelligent hivemind" for fun. The majority of them died like chumps to a single planet's bioengineering experiment, and now Blizzard wants you to believe they're multidimensional space gods or whatever happened with the new lore.
>>737980031Yep. SCII was a mistake story and lore-wise.
>>737979494clickbaitit only made more money than two years of one random guy's salary
>>737966219it's in early production, so probably 2030. Hopefully they don't bring back this whole chosen one and prophecies.
>>737980407i heard it was being made by koreans so it probably won't have any of that shit
>>737978343Don't remind me.Wait, actually I don't care. But it's so embarrassing the sóy boy that turned it in for a few baubles.
>>737978910I'm not reading all that, doesn't matter.My bigger issue is with the Protoss campaign. They just all seem so retarded and I'm incompetent.
>>737966743>NO ONE'S FUCKING MAKING ANYfalse
>>737979301The hybrids looked stupid an unimaginative abd they ruined the concept and set up. Also what the fuck does that have to do with Kerrigan becoming the Phoenix force you retard
>>737975076YeaSomehow we meme'd her cat stripes into existence, probably also her being a horny 4000yo /v/irgin.
>>737980514he meant no good ones, which is true>>737980517i think it was meant to be like an archon but it just came off as a cringe comic book reference
>>737966620>>737980721>>737975076
>>737980748if you ask rts fans from the golden age they'll say every one but their flavour was dogshit
Hopefully neverFuck modern Starcraft and the Gookclick cult
>>737966219oh boy i can't wait to learn about the REAL bad guys sat sit above the xel naga
>>737980995The real bad guy? Racism.
>>737981049>>737980995The next big bad was going to be the UED. They were able to defeat the entire Koprulu sector with an expeditionary fleet that didn't even include UED technology and seemingly had no logistical support except what they could pillage.Did it make a lot of sense? Not really, but it was better than Dragonball or whatever we got.
>>737975081I meant besides Zeratul the only other protoss that isnt a badguy is a new woman protoss. It would fine if we didnt have everything else listed.
>>737975436What? You have his super troopers in the epilouge tho, so that means he lives.
How would a World of Starcraft work bros
>>737980875nobody really has anything good to say about older trash games like wc1, aoe1 or cnc1most rts that come out nowadays are overly complicated and have garbage single player campaigns so they are utterly repellent to casuals which were the only people that ever cared about rts games
>>737980721More likely the art guy at Relic looked up reference pics not realizing they didnt make any and just took the ones off DeviantArt at fave value.
>>737982256MMOs killed video games
QUICK!>How would (You) make a modern RTS, and have it be unique and fun?
>>737966219>When the FUCK is StarCraft 3 coming out?they killed the IP with sc2 story anon, and RTS genre is dead
>>737982783>Starts out as relatively small scale on a relatively small map>Weak infantry>Teching up increases the size of the map for both players, with grabbable single-use resources for the player that was ready, as well as normal resources over a larger area>In addition, some kinds of resources can only be found at higher tech map-areas>Teching up also unlocks more units and buildings, obviously>Can tech up a total of three times>At tech level 4, you can have SupCom-sized units that stride across the (now much larger) battlefieldOriginally I had the idea for it being a 40K option, but anything that could have titans or experimentals or airships as giant units could work, too.
