i disagree, to me diplo maps are and always will be realistic historical conflicts on a grandiose scale
for me if you changed bw diplomacy and had riduclous antions, like aliens from space, or zombies id despise the shit out of it
i refuse to call azeroth wars a diplo, and i disagree with heros being included in the genre, that is called hero wars, similar to dota
and i know that diplomacy games will not be remade in a more kickass way than they were in sc1 but still beinghistorical because of the way blizaard has
made starting a map, im sorry but making that anyone can play a map anytime without a host i think is bullshit, because it makes concreteness and the imposssiblility of change, becaus eof the system things will stay as they are for long periods of time and becaus eof that diplo will never take off much in sc2, i know theres the ww2 map in the top 5 but for some reason that map just doesnt have the same feel for it, partially because infantry meant nothing and tanks everything but also because of the editor, you can do anything with the editor and when a piece of art is clay one tends to stray more abstract that practial the making of maps, i mean seriously some of the maps are ridiculous, and it makes the majority the contorller and the minority the outlier, heres the equation for popularity of a map is y=x^3-r^2 y= overall popularity, x=hours played, and r=the number ranked from the top
very good i liked how the camera tint changed colors when you changed areas ,gave it an extra feel to each specific place. It mustve taken forever to make those character models either which way you did it. Great Job
yeah FOW for everything never works in diplos, definitley let buildings be seen until war. there should be a system or Morale too because oppinion of other countries is important but more important is your people's oppinion of your government. and if someone was really favored with your people and your morale was really low, it would be realistic is you start a revolution in their country
Interesting... Thing Is When the Map becomes Clay you become lost in what you can make and that is why Diplo Rping is currently totally different on Sc2 the Cortex Roleplay system is too Loose in what you can do. If you can make anything its really hard to form a set of rules to go by universally.
i just dont think the serious/silly option is a good idea. Modern Debating isnt about putting forth the best arguments, No its spouting forth Truth or Lies and then failing to represent that truth because some college student doenst think abortion is murder, and also making the lie that the usa will solve its defecit by not cutting spending. so after youve Raged/Spouted your Truth/Heart/Lies you need a funny debate which is only about oppinion, because your friendshipp can only handle 3 nucleur debates in a row until you want your friend/enemy/fellow student/teacher/president obama/Democrats to die/stop lieing/abdicate/start believing the truth and your good/bad/unstable friendship/Partnership/Hatred/Murderous Glare of/with/for them goes off in the Solar Flare that starts Armaggedon and then an Apocalyptic Pestilence that will usher in a dark age that will make the world beg for death.
well ive had times when i had to debate who was hotter Kerrigan or Nova! to be honest i chose kerrigan because nova murdered one of my favorite characters Tosh and why is Nova ugly? have you seen ghost academy book 1? her hair was too messy and her face was too strange, even when she was supposedly hot before her parents died she didnt look as hot as she shouldve. Another reason kerrigan is hotter is because 1. she saves the world
2.she creates a consort for the express purpose of having sex
Ive seen this concept before but it seems youre applying it to sc2, in sc1 there was a map called Xeno Diplomacy It was eessentially your idea but as much as it could fit to sc1 and i dont think making small planets and smaller garrisions for each planet or installation would go well because it would be like Galatic Diplomacy in sc1 and the garrision for each installation was one marine.

i agree with your frustrations but the sc2 map editor is just too damn complex for me to help out
