BlackKnight Posted May 23, 2007 Author Share Posted May 23, 2007 starcraft 2 will blow away C&C3 and will require a good pc haha Considering the obscene amount of time and money Blizzard can afford to throw at a project, it blowing away an EA cash-in should come as no surprise.

Sybarite Paladin AxL Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 starcraft 2 will blow away C&C3 and will require a good pc haha Considering the obscene amount of time and money Blizzard can afford to throw at a project, it blowing away an EA cash-in should come as no surprise. I second that. C&C 3 is fun and all, but not as fun as the old ones. Besides you gotta hate the rush to mass build mammoth tanks/avatars/tripods and all that. C&C 3 has a very rudimentary rock paper scissor system, and it fails because all you do is build the biggest guns out there. And I also think they've been producing this game for alot longer than they might like to say. I mean, those gameplay vids looked pretty complete-ish. I do hope they keep most if not all the units from SC1 although I know Dragoons have been replaced by Immortals and Shuttles by Phase Prisms. I mean, stealth dark templars ftw.

Gryph Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 I am very hyped for this. Starcraft is one of the few RTS games that I enjoy playing even though I am horrible at them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sultan Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 I really hope it will run on a non-DX10 graphics card. Even if its missing some effects. Seems like overkill if it is DX10 required for a RTS game. Also I would hate to have to upgrade for one game. Their website is vague, but gives me hope that they'll keep us gamers who haven't upgraded very often since the original Starcraft in mind.

Sybarite Paladin AxL Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Well actually the game is based on DirectX9 The development team stated that they're considering adding in DirectX10 support as well, but nothing concrete as of yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elazul Yagami Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 i honestly think that at this point in time, it'd be stupid for any developer to make a game using directx10 only.it's a huge loss of possible revenue when yuo think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackKnight Posted May 24, 2007 Author Share Posted May 24, 2007 And also, knowing Blizzard, and considering how far into development they have said SC2 is, I wouldn't be surprised if DX10 was a tiny blip on the horizon when work started on the game engine proper.

Gryph Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Blizzard has always made games that run pretty well and look good on not tip top PCs. One of the major factors that makes all of their games such huge successes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elazul Yagami Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 yeah, Wc3 ran on my system pretty flocking amazingly, back when my system more or less sucked (comparatively) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeuronMaster Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I miss carriers. Not sure how I feel about 'god' units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackKnight Posted May 25, 2007 Author Share Posted May 25, 2007 I miss carriers. Not sure how I feel about 'god' units. Carriers will be back- I'd stake everything I've got on it. Hydralisks weren't shown either, and there is no way you can have a StarCraft game without those guys. The only units that are officially retired are Protoss Dragoons and Shuttles.
