LET THE SCRAPED UNITS REMAIN FOR MAPMAKING

If you ever get the chance talk to a developer tell him to leave the soul hunter, tempest and such units aviable in the map editor. (Even after they have been removed). This way there will be more units for custom maps and fan campaigns.

 

That is a cool idea for like campaign like a custom chapter called 'Dark Carriers VS Carriers' which would be cool and you will be able to see a soul hunter as a 'professor' (re named by a fan) in one a custom game cool idea Lemmy

 

Yup. Besides those 2 units were dark templar. COuld surely allow for a dark templar campaign made by fans.

 

Very good idea.. I'm pretty sure this is going to be done..

look at wc3.. u can even include models that aren't in the game.

 

/agree

 

tha'td be cool, thought the normal carriers would own the dark carriers.

 

Tempest got scrapped? Where the hell have I been?

 

gone for 15 minutes. lol. stuffs coming in so fast, dont be suprised if you miss something.

 

I actually asked the developers about this in one of the panels. While they never said that unused units were surely going in, they did say that they had no reason not to include them in the editor.

 

Cool. I cant wait to take SC1 into the SC2 engine.

 

lichking: yes, that was me. I don't think they interpreted the tilesets question they way I intended, and it only occurred to me after I stepped down. They said that you could use textures from other tilesets, but tilesets are more than textures.... I haven't used the WC3 editor, so I am not sure how accurate the question/response was.

Oh, and were my questions totally incoherent or something? It really bothered me that I had to restate both of my questions, when they only did that to other people when they had several or long questions....

 

the new map editor is going to be very powerful, i'm sure you can even make your own models with it.

 

I totally agree, SC2 is somewhat a very deep game if you know what i mean

 

that was you in the video asking the two questions 10-neon? they were pretty vague in their responses.

 

I'm sure they'll include them in the editor, but they won't be offered as downloads later on. That would mean that you would have to go download the units in order to play those maps. Either that or the map download in the game would take weeks!

 

I am a big believer of scrapping the old for the new. I would love never to see some of my most loved units if the game is that.... UBER!

For instance, Dragoons. DEAD - GONE - BYE.

I will not say I do not love the goons; however, if I want to play goons why play Starcraft 2 - I can play Starcraft 1.

 

well, u can always make maps in the map editor with some goons, and any of ur scrapped sc1 units.

 

totally agree with the topic starter

lots of potential FUN CUSTOM games

but i'd rather play LADDEr

 

speeking of remaking goons, don't you all realise that the beuwty of starcraft 1 was the fact that people had to inmagin what the units looked like up close because of the graphics, modern RTS's are taking that away and I think it would be terrible to put starcraft 1 units in starcraft 2 because then...well starcraft would never be the same for me, i'm not shure about others though.
But starcraft 2 is a sequel and does need some old units so I can execpt that, but the biggest thing that I'm going to miss is: WHAT THE HELL DOES A HYDRALISK LOOK LIKE WITH ITS CHEST CAVITIE'S OPEN AND SHOOTING SPINES!

 

They said you can use the old StarCraft units.
