Desert Dave Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 And I want to make clear that IMO SC 2 is a masterpiece. As a platform the sky is the limit. What we're doing here is not complaining by any stretch, just giving input on how to make the game even better. JG, The sky is indeed the limit. And, All of the VERY "informed critiques" in here Would be better heard, And more closely considered, IMO, Should you put them in a specific thread Dealing with - what? EACH of the 8 or 10 issues That have been raised. This is not necessarily about bugs finding , which is Blashy's job as a beta tester... Blashy and et al, Do FAR more than that, LOL, IF you might only be able to read The Beta Forum, Beginning to end, Over several years, You wouldn't say it so simple-severe as that, 'At's fer sure.

Desert Dave Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Two heads are better than one, and scores of beta testers are better than a handful. That's all that's happening, is the legion of informal beta testers are now reporting in, especially the premium players... Agreed. However, And I address this to all, Not merely yourself, I would estimate, oh... somewhere In the vicinity of .001 % Are "premium players," Whereas the IMMENSE, "critical mass" majority Are... what? (un)Rank(ed)... Amateurs? LOLOL! The game is made for THEM, Every bit as much as it is made For... who ARE those Premium! Players? Tell it again? I forget.

hellraiser Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 premium or not premium, leaded or unleaded MP play balance won't hurt casual gamers at all ... and any 'casual' gamer that really likes the game will come one day across the MP component Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do FAR more than that, LOL, IF you might only be able to read The Beta Forum, Oh Master of the waterless sands another hard question since we mere mortals CANNOT read in the beat forum. What of the the following things are real. 1. Santa Claus 2. Easter bunny 3. Patch for SC2 in our lifetime. Only 1 of these choices is real. TIP: Millions of children cannot be wrong P.S: A date for a first patch , a list of issues worked on wouldn´t be to hard . IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Dave Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 P.S: A date for a first patch , a list of issues worked on wouldn´t be to hard . IMHO No, Sombra, It really wouldn't be so hard Since all of us assisting are sort-of aware The "general nature" of potentially Implemented things. Not ALWAYS though, As Hubert loves to spring surprises! However It would no doubt be - off to Gaol, Sans ANY gruel for me Should I reveal what I know The future to be, Which is, as per usual, not An awful lot. You guys know what's up anyway: --Improving plunder calculus. --Something RE: amphib. --Help for UK in some certain ways. --Improved AI. --Other cool stuff too. :cool: And, I guess I could venture That you'd see something By Canada's "Victoria Day?" Or, at least - USA "Memorial Day," that Seems OK to say? Or, Is it? Off to cruel, gruel-less gaol Yet again! When! Will it end? :eek: LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellraiser Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 btw, they shouldn't have ever sold SC2 to Sombra - always bitching, complaining, grumbling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alas, we human players are always finding loopholes or bending rules to the breaking point.

Desert Dave Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 Alas, we human players are always finding loopholes or bending rules to the breaking point. The best SC-2 can be could NOT be done Otherwise, thank you. Sombra, not no longer sombre: Lets say it with the words of "Life of Brian" I want to be a woman (complaing and bitching forms part of my nature) At least you are forthright. Most Machismo Sorts REFUSE To allow their "Jungian animus" To even SEE the freeing Light of the day. Doesn't mean you should, necessarily, Cross dress, LOL, But, Artistic and Aesthetic sense Derives, arrives From out of the right side of the brain. Tra la! The gamemechanis and balance still needs some tweaking No doubt. It shall be accomplished! BTW, the PL-approved list # 1-6 above Will very probably be not necessary ... "as time goes by..." (accompanied by Sam soft on the Ivories, Ilsa looking on, looking good, radiant! like 20,000 assembled Suns, in her role of... cherchez la femme :cool: ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
