Targeting abilities - the yamato cannon

PRECICELY!!!


thats EXACTLY what im talking about when i refer to using a gambit system.... its not giving the player a cheating edge..... it just adds a little flavour and can blow up your face against another skilled player.

a gambit system would just let MORE people play, as well as the hardcores.

 

I second that.

This would be a perfect example of a control scheme that was as simple as it could be yet still maximizes functionality.

 

but in mass battles you do a misclick you will cry

 

You need right-click to cancel the attack, leaving you with left-click and maybe middle-click. I think Supreme Commander uses double and triple-clicks to do different things. You could conceivably do the same thing in this situation.

 

Hopefully starcraft will improve the game options so that you can edit this sort of stuff, or at least improve it for the obvious spells. Who needs 12 medics to blind one observer, or 5 ghosts to lock 1 bc while 4 more attack your base. Anyways, blizzard should and most likely will improve the system, i mean it will be a decade of experience for them,

 

They've made these specialized keyboards to play starcraft in South Korea. They are really good. They have more number of hotkeys that are more accessible. They also took into account that a player's right hand will be occupied on the mouse, so the keyboard is designed to fully utilize the left hand. I saw them when I had a quick stop over in Seoul on my way to Tokyo.

 

I totally agree. They could do this on mutliple abilities. (cant think of any others it would be usefull for)
