I hate how broodlings are gay and has like the worse ai pathfinding
I hate how battlecruisers are so tiny and how their yamato isnt instakill
I hate how ghosts cant headshot
I hate how im making this up as i go and that this list could possibly never end
I hate all this hating which actually isnt cause im just being z0mgs

 

lol nice little rant there XD
hmm i dont really hate anything about sc in general. i just hate the noob hackers that use it >.<

 

i have a few things to add...

i hate how mechanical units don't leave survivors bailing out after their deaths
i hate how units have to stop to fire(except siege tanks) even though we can do it in real life
i hate how explosions don't always do splash

 

hey random who's that in your sig.? i'd like to say someone from x-men because the fire in her hands ... wait i think i see a zippo lol

 

I hate the bug that keeps the terran fleet behind. Yes, i´m talking about the Valkyrie bug. C´mon, couldn´t blizzard fix this? What a shame!

 

i hate the cinematics in starcraft 1 now. lol

protoss campaign, "the ambush", and they thought that ugly tank plus the bg music was cool and badass. back then yes but now, wtf? lol.

 

Thos cinematics kicked ass. They still kick ass. The amerigo one is great. "Thank god for cold fusion".

 

I hate how it's been ten years since Starcraft and they only announced Starcraft 2 a couple of months ago.

 

I dont like having 4 workers and 50 minerals. Id like 5 workers or 4 workers and 100 minerals (to diversificate the starting tactics).

 

I strongly agree with these two, even if the arbiter is a spell caster, his attack should worth something since he's so late in the tech-tree

about optical flare, it should do some dmg per second to the target.. but.. this is starcraft 1.. not wc3.. lol

anyway it should deal like 3 dmg per sec for the duration since the unit is blind..

and how the heck do u blind a siege tank? LOL (and other mech units lol)

 

I think mechanical units are blinded by the flare overloading the circuitry and sensors that they use to see things with.

 

That's a very logical answer.. however a spell that can overload the circuitry and sensors and can blind a zergling at the same time sounds a bit weird.

 

im not saying the cinematics was crap or bad. actually i love it (for a ten years old game cinematics). but i do hate some instances on those cinematics NOW (sorry, can't help comparing it to the trailer intro of sc2). like, they are suppose to be in the future, the tank in the wasteland was lame and the pistol, ofcourse i was amazed and i always thought it was bad@ss watching it from 1997 to maybe 2004.

anyway, the one thing i hated the most is the terran final cinematic in broodwar(starship troopers like) ZERG! wtf with the commercial thing? arcturus mengsk speech in starcraft 1 original terran final cinematic was way better than the UED advertisement.

 

Yeah but Mengsk is a great speaker. That's where his problems start cropping up - you can't talk someone to death... or in fact you can, but if Mengsk ever tried that, Raynor would shove a Spider Mine up his A, Zerry would slice his guts in two, and Kerry would slap him silly with her clawwhipthings. "I don't care, i just wanna retake Korhal." "Come on, Kerry, Korhal." "KORHAL, KORHAL, KORHAL, come on, korhalkorhalkorhalkorhaliwannagotoKORHALcomeondamnit
KORHALruleskkletsgotokorhalnowkkriteokletsgonowgotoKORHAL"
He was such a whiny little ***** in SC: BW, really made me hate him for real.

 

It talks about in the manual, like it also sends out a small EMP that actually does what it's real world counterpart does, namely, fry circuits.

Which brings me to my second one.

OK, I get the Science Vessel's EMP killing shields and Terran ability pools, but how in the hell does it hit Protoss and Zerg Psi? They're not tech based, with the exception of the Arbiter MAYBE. It makes no sense. Realistically, it should shut down mech units for a set period of time.

And Char.....*Shudder*
The coolest terrain set is also the most WORTHLESS. I think mc2 mentioned this. It has those damn lava fields EVERYWHERE. But it looks so freaking AWESOME!!

K, I'm done.

 

I think EMP stuff messes with the electric current. Psy is like energy, isnt it?

 

It's probably Blizzard's idea of a clever scheme that they thought no one would notice.

 

Complaint. Is it me or the zerg are generally underpowered. Sure they have advantages; however, how many of the ultimate champions are terrans or protoss and how many are zerg players. There are almost a 1.5 to 1 ratio for protoss to terran players but yet its almost a 3 to 1 ratio for a protoss to zerg players in the last korea champion ship player (the one that debuted Starcraft 2 videos). I think the zerg need to be boosted a tad and i dont mean the rush zerg.

 

EMP = Electro Magnetic Pulse. A pulse of electromagnetic energy capable of disrupting computers or other electronical device.

Psi or psionics is a phenomena where a person seems to affect or to gain information about something through a means not currently explainable within the framework of mainstream, conventional science. Proponents of the existence of these phenomena usually consider them to be a product of unexplained mental abilities.


So would an EMP device disupt psi items? Only if the psi uses an electronic device that can react to magnetic properties as well. The shields on the protoss buildings and units are electronical, I would imagine. The psionic abilities of the protoss are not. This is why the EMP blast effects a zealots shields but not the zealots psi blades. The shields are a device and the psi blades are the ability the zealots get to focus their mental energies into a weapon. So the science vessel's EMP attack would not disrupt all of the protoss items only the mechanical and electronical items. It is possible to make hardened electronics to protect against EMP attacks. Which leads me to believe the important stuff like life support and basic weapons and manueverability are protected while the shields which probably can not be as protected since they are on the "outside" can be effected.

 

Y wont the Protoss just run around using planet destroyer to kill everyone?

oh yeah, cuz there wouldnt be a starcraft to play...
