Hey guys, I'm sure some of you saw this, but I came across these videos for "Best of 2010..." on Gamespot. Under "Best Implementation of User Generated Content" Gamespot voted SC2 as #1 of 2010, and in its short video explaining as much, they featured a few maps which were created by members from SC2Mapster!
Nice video. They said that the custom maps is what will keep SC2 alive. Based on that, the map editor shouldn't be an extra feature with no support, no documentation, and no priority.
Yea, but the fact is that there are no good maps for SC2. People just can't make good map. And when I say good map I mean a map(mod) that will give you enough fun, and keep you interested for at least 2 months.
There is none to prove yet.
Other problem withing SC2 is bnet. Bnet is like simply against custom maps. Refusing to promote new custom maps.
You cant find good new map. Or author cant promote his maps.
That being said. For me, SC2 is long behind of being good game for mods; for now. UDK better, Source is better.
I enjoyed few custom maps.
Retribution TD, Catalyst(Tank Wars), Zilion Zerglings, Colonial Line Wars... but none of them are good enough in order to keep me interested.
Retribution TD became boring.
Catalyst became worse with updates(what popularity can prove...)
Same goes for Zilion Zerglings.
Colonial Line Wars is quite good map, and interesting one. But some things made so good, balance. So it gets boring if you know what to do.

I agree.
I also think people/kiddies should get their accounts banned for uploading junk/retard maps.. What?;p
Thank god this video is better, if you have watched the earlier version for that nominations, sc2 is like made to looks boring. They just let the editor open and that's it ..
Edit: Chesscraft was there. I'll get this on the frontpage once i figured out how to embed their videos
Well I dont know. That would suit only few of us. But its basically not good thing to do. Look at it this way. Those kiddies are having fun... We arent sadly.
BTW programmer, Its not all about how you use the editor. Coz I seen lots of people going crazy with it instead making some maps that are playable. You know, so other people can play them and have fun.
People are trying to do similar things like those people are doing with Kinect. Something that isnt related with games.
