Hm yah I guess I'll just go ahead and buy it then, it's 60 bucks for both hots and wol together right now (some sort of sale in the blizzard store) so that's not bad especially since the game will probably just get better and better over time custom map-wise (took sc1 a long time to get a good selection of UMS games).
I loved probably 95% of the UMS maps I played in sc1 to be honest but my favorites were definitely volcano/cat and mouse type maps, I remember playing crystal wars for hours on end, but defence maps and such are pretty fun as well xD thanks for the replies guys I just wanted to make sure it wasn't like completely abandoned or anything because of the popularity system and such.
Hi sorry if this is the wrong forum or whatever I wasn't completely sure where to place a question like this...but basically I'm considering buying sc2 and I was wondering just how populated the custom maps community is in general. I read that it was really bad off due to the popularity system driving lots of people away etc. and I really didn't enjoy the "normal" SC1 gameplay back when I played it I was always in UMS games constantly, I even made some of my own.
I was also wondering if HotS is going to be required for certain custom maps later on or if I can skip buying it if I don't care about the singleplayer campaign.
