Scarlett is such an extraordinary person. Humble, sweet, nice. Thanks for the documentary.

I think his analysis is spot on. Very excited to see what they’re cooking up.

Excellent documentary! Thank you for your effort in this endeavor! 😊

Rumor has it David Kim is still a top Random GM SC2 player

stop shit talking sc2 david kim!

Sorry for my bad English. I'm not a native speaker. I think having some automated resource income increment you can stop or restart by hand is a good idea. I think that is one type of interesting decision. Especially if you can decide between 2, 3, or 4 resources. So you not only decide if you want to increase the income, but you also have to decide which resource you want to increase automatically over time. Of course, you can maybe pimp that through upgrades so you can get 2 different resources and or 1 resource faster, etc. per base/ main structure. I think it will also be good to just decide to increase the number of production facilities for combat units and you don't have to find a place for the structure. So you click a button and the facility is automatically placed near the main structure or something like that. Of course, you will have several main structures and you can decide which main structure will get the extra production facility. That will also highlight the strategy part. (One thing that could be lost is the possibility of hiding production and tech structures etc. anywhere on the map like hidden Gateways or Dark Shrine or something like that. Not sure if this will easily be possible in that game. Is for me one of many important strategic options.) I think also just having a menu full of different upgrades sorted in the economy, new units, and existing unit improvements would be a cool idea. Unit improvements can be abilities like blink that give some existing units totally new options or something like a general power or defense upgrade for a group of units like armor. In this case, I would like to split armor and weapon upgrades into more different categories like laser, explosive, poison, or projectile weapons and armor types. That could increase the diversity in battles. So for example a unit with a projectile weapon can be changed to a unit with a laser weapon etc. It may be something that you don't just upgrade, but you can also change for the current production cycle of the unit. So after you have built the unit with the laser weapon upgrade you can change that back to the unit with the projectile weapon if needed. And it's good that they will probably remove that boring supply thing so you start with 4/200 for example and you don't have to increase the max supply. One thing that is actually missing in a lot of different rts like all C&C, StarCraft, and WarCraft titles is the strategic diversity auto-generated maps offer. That are several things. One thing is that scouting becomes more important because you don't know what the battlefield looks like. That gives you also more options to hide economy, production buildings, and tech more easily and will play a bigger part in the decision-making. I really like that in Age of Empires 2 and I miss it in Starcraft and Warcraft. In combination with more spread resources like stone, food, gold, and especially forest in Age of Empires 2 there are a lot more options for possible bases or places for economy and hidden economy. In Age of Mythology and also in Starcraft etc. the places for an economy are really limited. Especially when you don't have auto-generated maps. I think that could increase the strategic part of the game if you increase the options instead of limiting them. That would for me some really important parts of an RTS. StarCraft 1 is of course a great game, but it also has its parts for improving. People should more often combine the best things of Starcraft:BW and Age of Empires 2. One last thing. I would also overthink the start position thing. In Age of Empires 2, there is something called "nomad maps" so you start with 3 workers who are randomly distributed across the map. Those are really funny maps because each game has its own individual story. For example, one time you start really near to an opponent and you will have from the beginning a really action-based match. Another time you start far away from every opponent and you can hide and build up your great economy. Furthermore, sometimes the match develops into a defensive style of play depending on the many things that can happen during a match. This map type also benefits greatly from randomly generated maps. In addition which resource you have enough in range or not is totally different in each match. So there is so much variety so the basic principles are different from ... for example Starcraft, where you know most of the things. You know where your opponent starts, how the map looks like, where the opponent can expand, where you can expand, and where are the roads to the opponent's bases or to your bases, you probably also know the few build orders your opponent can play and you can play and of course, you will probably know your build order you will play in one match, etc. In Age of Empires 2 the 4 different resources also make it possible to decide if you want to build high-quality units (gold units) or trash units (food/wood units) or to build more defensive structures (stone things like castles, turrets, walls). The last thing can help you to get different and more resources and go over to a more aggressive playstyle with a lot of harassment with a small group of units etc. All of these things do not contribute to greater diversity, quite the opposite. They make the game more predictable and therefore more boring.

This is a terrible interview. Guy gives boomer takes on RTS. He says 'like' an absurd amount of times. The interviewer never pushes back, or asks clarifying questions. All he does is just blow hot air up the other guy's ass. "That's so true." "that makes a lot of sense, actually" "that is such a great insight" NO! Maybe this game is actually good. But what David Kim is saying all this video is almost all bullshit. And we learn literally nothing about the game.

David Kim putting out ideas about RTS that were known to be false in 2006. Claiming he thought about them for 10 or 30 decades. But he has literally nothing to say about what these new gameplay concepts has that his game will have. Making the same claims and statements that everyone and their dog has made ever since SC BW became popular, but claiming he is the first and only one making them. Fans are asked to have 'an open mind' while the devs have huge promises while making the same mistakes over and over again. Come back to us when you made a game that is actually a ton of fun and you can actually show us this. Because this is just stupid talk.

Important question: has feardragon figured out how to cannon rush in this game yet?

That sounds really interesting to me. Now I am really hoping for some high fantasy non-futuristic setting.

Starcraft no other game come close to it

I'll never forgive, never forget him for the swarm host era.

Dam he been playing StarCraft for 30 decades

Talking about a game that has no gameplay footage out seems premature - it's hard to have an emotional investment in a game when you could be building the next halo wars

Awesome! Thanks for the interview!

Great interview, thx FearDragon

I'm not sure if you've mention this, but some units, like the disruptor, adept, cyclone, etc. Have death voice lines, not the screams one usually hears but for example the disruptor has the line "The true end has come..."

Can't wait for Phog to come back!!! #IVDPHOG

She doesn't like being called queen of blades, right?

USELESS FACT: I just spotted that the BC teleporting in produces a disk-shaped ripple behind itself as it appears at the target location

BEST UNDERDOG STORY EVER!!!

Cant wait to visit myself

I like how I feel like a total newbie but in a good way when I hear this song. ❤️ RO.

A lovely vlog told without words. 😌

This was so relaxing, thanks for sharing

Any plans to participate in the next HSC?

There and back again. Fun amazing adventure and video!

Koreans are good at starcraft cause they're smart asf not because they have fast internet lol

My guess was 7? Mainly because I feel like that might be the number for queuing up patrol moves.

Description of hardcoded in-game values in a cryptic xml format with no unit testing... Is there really a process issue? 🤔

Dont know if this counts but ive always been fascinated by what must be happening under the hood in the following situation: give a move command to a unit to “go into an opponents base” but unbeknownst to me their ramp is walled off. the unit often has strange behaviors. It makes sense that it lets you try to do this because otherwise you could use the refusal of this order to gather information on what is walled, and what is not. However I find it odd that the unit will not end its path right up at the top of the ramp, you would think you would try to get as far along its path as possible before realizing it’s blocked. Instead it skips the ramp entirely, and seems to run alongside the wall of the main base usually ending in the natural.

Maybe the move commands disappear because the probe tries to execute them for a while and then notices that it's not possible.

I think that there is also a different limit when you issue commands on multiple units depending on how the units will treat the commands. (idk if you have to mix in individual commands and group commands or if you can do it with just commands outside their bounding box (where each unit has a different end point it wants to reach (maybe with patrol? I don't remember how to do it with move command)))

I have acually reached these limits a few times in my games, not useless at all!

Good stuff

Ideally there'd be at least three production branches: PTR, live ladder and live stable (for when there's money on the line etc.). Of course, we neither have the player base nor the infrastructure to make that happen, so... Aside from that, I think it's important to at least consistently and diligently flag fixes that aren't fully understood so that they can be revisited later if/when we have the manpower. But yeah, sometimes the only thing you can do with a legacy codebase is laugh.

The final death rattle of sc2. Its clear to me that its been abandoned.

Maybe we should separate low risk changes and the higher risk ones where for things like unit reworks the patch will be delayed for more extensive testing and only go live after that. the high risk patches should be able to include low risk things though. they don't need to be in an entirely separate patch.

Would it be possible to keep the previous version around as a mod? So that tournaments have the option of going back if a serious bug is discovered.

Thanks for opening my eyes on how currently changes are introduced into SC2. Previously I thought that Blizz is actually still developing or creating them but based on community suggestions. But I was insanely wrong as those changes as I understand are developed outside of Blizz entirely by community volunteers. I assume that from Blizz side there is only a "commit" / "upload to server" person that just puts developed changes live and that is it. I'm myself a dev and I do have quite a bit of (unpleasant) experience of working with legacy code that has its smells and years of modifications, workarounds etc. So I'm to some extend aware how difficult and also scary it is to make any modifications in that kind environment. Many thanks and big credit for those people that work on it and as it appears they also do all of that for free.

"This video has gone on longer than it needed to" *immediately ends video* Yep, that's definitely a programmer alright.

Aren't colossus too weak anyway? 10 range looks fine for me :)
