Can it get any better? This simply looks amazing.

Looks like we will be playing SC:Ghost sometime soon..

Sorry if this has been posted somewhere else.

 

the viking gameplay was awesome

 

holy **** i want my hands on that editor now, looks so darn amazing. Hopefully Blizz adds that viking game into starcraft, looks like fun lol

 

I just got a nerdgasm. Seriously

 

OH MY GOD. I think I just had a hundred billion nerdgasms. I can't wait to get my hands on this editor! It will be in the beta too I hear!!

There are going to be some INCREDIBLE maps made with this thing.

 

ah, bubahublabub?
I'm speechless :O
Going to be hard to learn ¨/

 

*Regains composure*

Hopefully it will be quite intuitive like the warcraft 3 editor. You don't have to type any custom script or anything. Advanced mappers will probably choose to code manually though, since it tends to be more efficient - but we'll see I suppose.

 

farrr i just had a editorgasm!!

that lost viking game was fricken epic!!! woooohoooo cant wait for this game!!!!

*gasmss @#*&$*@#%&!*

 

the Uberlisk was uberly epic. but the lost viking game was the best

 

The content of my testicles is now on the carpet. Seriously can you imagine what the new DotA could do with this? Oh and people will finally stop crying for starcraft ghost

 

Of course there will be incredible maps made with this editor. What else can we expect when Blizzard offers people money for the best maps?

 

For me it seems like with the marketplace and this strong an editor Icefrog / other good map editor will be able to make an imba game like dota, that will pawn HoN

 

Seriously, how big is Starcraft 2 going to take on your computer's hard drive space. Fully installed with the galaxy editor.

From what I saw in htat video, the map editor alone will be worth the price of the game itself. (for map modders of course)

 

Well, warcraft maps were all smaller than 4mb in size. Custom models would undoubtedly increase map size significantly, considering the quality needed for them to fit in-game with the official units. But the maps shown in the demo don't use any imported material so I'm guessing they'd be quite small.

That being said, my wc3 map download folder is 500mb!

 

I hope that they ship lots of tutorials with the editor. Or even some demos (like the 3rd person RPG) for us to open in the editor to see how it was build.

No matter what, there will probably be lots of new mapmaking communities out there that will cover all the details for us.

The greatest part of it all it that SC2 will last for ages. There will be loads of times that you log on to B-net 2.0 and its marketplace to find that numeral completely new games (in different genres), new SC2 scenarios and others have been publicised.

I wonder what the cost will be for the quality maps, and suppose that someone will make a great 3rd person game how much that will cost. Hopefully they will implement a price ceiling of lets say 10€ / $.

 

Yea I have a feeling there will be enough communities out there to learn everything we need to know. I just can't wait to make my own melee maps, and hopefully some cash =p.

 

You wont make any cash off of melee maps.

 

Damn, you were faster Higgy!

Even DOTA will perhaps not be "special enough" to be able to make any cash.

 

holy nuts. do i even need any other games after this? it's gonna be an awesome RTS already, and tons of RPG/Turret Defense maps, and now 3rd-person shooter/adventure games, and shmups! wtf!

i hope someone "ports" the touhou series to the starcraft engine...

 

I'm not even sure anymore what I'm excited about more, the editor or the actual game!
