SC2 Wishlist

List some features you'd like to see in Phase 2 or Retail release that's missing at the moment.


i hope they do something about hotkeying rax... if you hotkey a rax with tech lab and one with reactor.. the ones with reactors or nothing should always produce marines by priority

i hope infested terran spell gets switched out for something to help zerg deal with tanks!

i hope you get different rankings/placements for different races!!

i hope there's a better way to browse/host custom games

i hope in game mic is improved! god people sound awful!

i hope there's completely CUSTOMIZABLE hotkeys!

i hope there's a way to watch replays with friends!

Completely agree!

Also... I hope they add more animations to the portraits, lol clone animations...
And make the Hellion more useful.

i wish they bring lurker back

Yea, you know what? I'd rather have a buffed lurker than an ultralisk.

The Lurker is NOT coming back THIS game. It is possible that it will come back in heart of the swarm.

if it is come to back...Why were now removed from the game???

for money??

and I wish just change the deplorable plastic unit design....

Maybe Lurkers will be Tier 3 units in HOtS alongside ultras with humungous size and CRAZY massive LoS splash damage to ground. Kind of like a Colossus for Zerg :P

And people will just rush to Hive tech in mid game JUST to get 1 of these bad boys ;)

Same. What's nice about 3D though is that a lot of improvements can be made through simple shaders or other newer technologies, so hopefully we'll see a large graphical upgrade with one of the expansions ala Company of Heroe's "Gold Edition".

One thing that really gives some of the units a very "fake" feeling is the amount of scaling that goes on. Spikes and such with Zerg will expand and stretch as if they're rubber, when they're very clearly supposed to be solid bone. In the bigger picture, it's relatively unnoticeable, but there's this subconscious feeling of "rubber/toy" going on because of it.

make the battlenet portraits animated. hell yea

LOL, i just have to comment. I read this a lot.

They ARE making the game for money. They made SC1 for money too.

On topic, I agree with the OP. The game needs at least 3 of what was stated to be at least a 9/10.

Don't forget that weird glitch that happens if you attack a building sometimes - I usually see this happening with Stalkers especially against Command Centers. The small part of the top of a building will ripple and distort, almost like a mirage or what happens when it's hot outside and you look at a part of the road that is far away, when there isn't any reason to. I've always found that strange but I'm not sure if anyone else noticed it.

Can't say I've ever noticed that. Closest thing I could imagine is Chrono Boost with a half animation? ... But thats been long removed to be casted on allies.

Blizzard probably didn't want SC2 to be SC1 3D. As much the beta resembled SC1, can you imagine strategically how much more similar the game would've been with lurkers, dark swarm, reavers, dropships, irridate, and etc?

I wish that Blizzard got rid of that popular bar things by the maps, stops the other maps at the bottom of the list to be less played, or not at all

I want LAN.

My wishlist is written all over our battle.net 2.0 concerns article. *winks* And you thought I had a massive wall of text in my FORUM posts... we literally cut off thousands of words when we edited it out.

Two things:

1. Bring back Glynnis Talken to voice Kerrigan.

2. Remove regional lock.

If they do that I'll buy not one but two copies of SC II. :cool:

I just wish that, since there are missions you play instead other missions... you can choose the ones you didn't play in the mission selection...

Just that.

The Hellion is fine. Its very strong and rewards micro well. The one Terran unit that needs to be more useful throughout the game is Reapers.

Agreed. Hellions rock. I use those way more than Reapers. Reapers need something to make them more viable in later game. But that discussion is a whole thread in and of itself.

Ugh. Reapers. It overlaps the Hellions role, only more poorly, it cuts into your army production time immensely, and it never sees the light of day if it's not part of a 7 rax cheese. Talk about a unit that needs to be completely overhauled.

Well if reapers where buffed 3v3 and 4v4 would be unplayable with just reapers hiding and then totally destroying the opponents base.

Imo the reduced cost of their uppgrade made them good enough. They might not be used in your main army but it's used for taking out bases quickly or harrasing. (got a replay somewhere where I did a really really nice reaper usage this way)

Yeah, beyond cheese rushing, Reapers just don't have a reason for being. They are so lousy during mid to late game.

Edit: I will say though that In very late game, you can catch an opponent off guard with 10 or 12 into an expo or two. Especially with dropship help.

Better options exist in the banshee and BC by then, but Reapers are more mobile and cheaper.

I wish they'd bring back the lurker =) if the Hellion and the Reaper can have almost the same role, harassment, why can't the lurker have the same role as another gun, just in higher tier
