Speed the Game up

General Discussion
1

Haven’t played WarCraft 3 for 12 years and recently tried a bit and found out that it maybe too slow:

  • units turn so slow
  • unit production too slow
  • overall match length seems too long

It may be due to I got used to fast pace of Starcraft 2. Anyway a bit speed boost could be a good idea. So what do you think?

Thats why people like Warcraft 3. They don’t like how streamline Starcraft 2 is.

StarCraft and Warcraft are different games. Even SC: R is maintaining its own speed.

It gives players time to finish their Doritos.

Slow? I have seen game end in 5 minutes

Eh.

It’s a different beast of a game. Just like how Warcraft 2 is different from Starcraft, Starcraft is different from Starcraft 2, Starcraft 2 is different from Warcraft 3, and Warcraft 3 is different from Warcraft 2.

I’d rather not have stuff homogenized.

No.

Warcraft 3 is fast its own way, via being able to better micro your units without having them drop in under a second. We don’t need to add a low effort sense of speed to the game by pressing the ‘ fast forward’ button as they did in SC.

I can’t stand SC2, watching my Marines and other units sprint around with a terribly sped up jogging animation. I certainly hope that Blizzard keeps the fast forwarded gameplay to the Starcraft series and doesn’t plague the Warcraft RTS series with it — if the Warcraft RTS series even gets any sequels.
