Hey guys, Just wondering if anyone knows the answer to this: Will any of the popular custom maps from Starcraft Brood War be released with SC2? Particularly an "official" Zero Clutter map? I know there's a lot of people who would play maps like that constantly, and the most annoying thing was everyone had their own version. I'd love to see Blizzard release some of the fan favorite custom maps in an official release. On a similar note, another popular "option" in the original SC was a "No Rush xx minutes", usually 15 or 20 min. It seems to me like it'd be possible to make an "official" Zero Clutter map where the top 3 players could not cross a certain boundary for a predetermined amount of gametime, and neither could the bottom 3 players. This function could be applied to other maps as well. I think that'd make a lot of people very happy.
If we get any maps from the original it will only be because someone made them again. SC1 was a 2D sprite system while SC2 is a 3D model system so the maps are not compatible. Any we see will be made from scratch but patterned after SC1 maps As for the no rush thing I would like to see that option but I doubt it will happen Oh BTW welcome abouard. Please read the forum FAQ and rules and feel free to post an introduction thread in the introduction forum. If you have any questions I will be happy to answer them
Yea I understand that the map would have to be completely remade, I'd just like to see Blizzard be the one to remake it, and launch it as an official Zero Clutter map so we don't have 3000 versions like we did in SC1.
Definitely a good chance of seeing the popular ones again. Remember the demand for tower defense maps was high enough they put one in the Frozen Throne campaign
I am pretty sure the ZC you know from SC1 won't be possible in SC2- they'll probably have fixed the glitch that allowed stacked minerals. Expect bases surrounded with minerals like the ones money mappers used before the glitch was discovered, except with gold minerals instead of normal ones.
