some freinds have been goading me to pick this up.

are there any zergling blood maps out yet?

in sc1 i designed one with unit type spawn controls and mass attack controls, how hard would it be to do this in sc2's map editor?

Are you talking about the maps where you send one unit in a specific direction on a small section and then the mass follows the direction on a larger map? If so, then there's already a map for it, so it shouldn't be too hard ;)

ahh right on. i actually pioneered that in sc1 lolz :p or at least up to that point i hadn't seen a custom map with that feature.

might be cool to get into map design again. with stuff like dota out there it will be hard to be on the same level where i was.

tbh i only worked on zergling blood variants for the most part back then. a few different ideas here and there and tweaks to the spawn rates. could spend hours playing those maps. :)

thing holding me back from actually getting the game is more an issue with having abosolutely no interest in the regular mode game play or the sp. from what i hear it's no tmuch different from sc1, and i got totally sick of it years ago.

so i picked up sc2 today..

:(

intro was the same cgi as the sc2 announcement trailer, like wtf?

got in game and was told to play practice league, but didn't see a an option to play custom games right off the bat so i skipped that.

then i only had the option to play 1v1, 2v2 etc. no chat room, no custom game menu browser nothing.

like wtf is this ****? honestly?

half the fun in sc1 was chatting a bit with some random stranger or a regular then making a game and duking it out in 1v1 or 1v2 or w/e or a custom map.

maybe i am missing something here, but the ui has gone ebyond ****ed and they re definitely cutting out the chat functions. i mean llike wtf????

When you leave the practice league more options open up. Custom games can be accessed by clicking join a game... You can chat in a custom game menu.

i figured out how to browse custom games, but wtf happened to the old bnet where you had a badass chat room and chatted with randoms and regulars between games? i'm so sad right now because of this.

their are rumors they might add them back in a future patch but they seem more focused on balencing right now

They actually confirmed they were coming, but didn't say when. They'll definitely be in at some point but we're talking Blizzard time here.

They balanced the zerg cause apparently people weren't playing zerg , so they buffed zerg.

that is so true. i was playing around 5 games last night and i only encountered 1 zerg in a team. I think zerg is a pretty powerful race if you know your way around.

back in the start of sc1 people played zerg less too, until the learned that zerg were pretty ****ing badass in certain ways once you learned how to play them. in some ways they were harder(because drones morphing into buildings instead of just building them for example) but in some ways they were just crazy. so long ago i don't recall details though.

at first everyone played terran or protoss in sc1 too, mainly terran. then later on people played terran less due to their weaknesses.

yeah , if you ask me terran is weak still, even in sc2 ( for me anyway) it's harder to play... I don't know why, but I have a harder time... Protoss I can do really well with, same with zerg. I have 100 wins zerg, 100 wins protoss 10 wins terran lol.....

I generally only play the Zerg. Mostly out of Habit as it was my favorite race from the first game. However, I have attempted to play as Protoss once and it was horrible I failed even more epically than I normally do.

Wow. I haven't logged on to Battle.net in months. I don't know why, but I somehow lost interest in this game. I didn't beat the campaign yet and the last game I played was a 1v1 match against my best friend.

    • Autonomous post-training loop placed 8th of 4,000 and then rewrote its own evaluation strategy. An autonomous AI system built by researchers at Amazon's A-EVO-Lab completed a full post-training run on a 30 billion parameter NVIDIA Nemotron model — with no human in the loop, across four rounds running over multiple weeks — and then did something its designers had not planned for: it detected that its own internal evaluation metric had become misleading and redesigned the search strategy it was using to improve itself. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319123/20260626/nvidia-ai-trained-itself-30b-model-corrected-its-own-broken-metric-mid-run.htm

    • If Ford would stop hiring SUITS to run the company, and put CAR GUYS back in charge perhaps they could do better. Heck, the only CAR they produce today is the Mustang. Hey Ford! Not everyone needs/wants an overpriced SUV or pickup truck that is so tall you have to have a step ladder to get in and out of it.
    • Amazing how some will just jump all over something. Probably the same people that thought Musk was a "tech god" before he saddled up with "bad orange man". Before, they worshiped at his feet, including a lot of so called hollywood types. Now, because he fell off the plantation truck, they toss him under the bus.
