There they go again, instead of actually keeping interesting set pieces in play they jsut nerf them, cause you know, noobs might start bitching and crying. Oh yeah, and those Bnet updates they were talking all about? Not a single sight of them....

Because they never nerfed stuff in the original classic as well huh. That's why you still can hide siege tanks under buildings, spawning pool is still 150 min, and psionic storms can still one-hit lurkers.

Also, didn't they mention in this very patch note that they were working on chat channels and on improving custom games?

I think he has made up his mind to hate this game no matter what blizz does. I dont think I have read one positive thing from him about sc2. You would think he could atleast let those of us who enjoy the game enjoy it! I think they made all the right decisions with sc2. It has the same feel I like from the first. It has nice updated graphics. They have made some new and unique units. The multiplayer is great too. I like the matchmaking

I wouldn't mind him critisizing the game if he made good points. And there are many things that SC2 could be critisized for. For example, the intense micro of the original is not fully intact, as battles in SC2 mostly consists of two balls of units being attack moved at each other and the occational usage of unit abilities. Also, the game has no LAN, requires you to log in to watch replays, is launching without features wich will be patched later, and its custom game system is a disaster. So I don't agree with you in that Blizzard made all the right desicions with SC2, they dissapointed some of the long-time fans.

However, SC2 is the best RTS in ages, and the matchmaking system is really awesome. 4v4 matchmaking together with friends on skype is so far ahead of any current-gen gameplay experience on any platform that it's ridiculous. I'm one of the people who are dissapointed by Blizzard, but I'll defend the game against illogical unjustified critisism like in Vlad's comment.
