And there must be a reason why C&C is not being played anymore (even the newer ones like C&C 3 and 4 or RA3), while the (much older) likes of Broodwar, Age of Empires and Warcraft are still kicking at some level.
What exactly is like C&C u think, yes its both rts and yes both has tanks i know but what do u mean more exactly. From what ive seen its just faster, more action, you can't just sit around sieging up, u gotta do something or get punished, thats how it should be. Tho there are things that could be better, and it will be, the expansion is just a little child yet, give it some time.

Withholding judgement. It does not seem future proof. Hope they prove me wrong.

As long as it doesnt produce the same game over and over again and a short game doesnt lasting more then 20 minutes. Then SC2 might actualy become relevant again. Nothing says SC2 more then a 1 hour campingparty knowing whoever attacks will lose.

That poll is missing a whole bunch of options :p

Yeah, strange poll considering most people are not in the beta yet.

I'd like a carefully optimistic option for that poll.

I think it is looking promising.
Zerg feels really fun now, although it needs some balance changes. The same goes for Terran, and it still has to get a new unit. Protoss got the short end so far, and I'm not sure what they can do to solve it... Still, the disruptor gives a similar sort of randomness as the reaver in terms of destruction. I've also been trying some gateway builds with adepts, twilight council (for the shield upgrade) and DTs/archons, which seem interesting at my mediocre level.
You can definitely see they have been trying to reintroduce Broodwar to Starcraft 2. I really hope they will reconsider the economic model (dual harvester along with the reduced minerals could go a long way).

Blizzard Wrecked HOTS because they hate zerg apparently with the last patch. now no top player will ever make a swarmhost again. they may as well just have deleted it from the game. while you're at it Blizzard: here are some other things you can delete from the game: Cyclones, picking up and dropping siege tanks... the carrier interceptor ability... the battlecruiser jump.... widow mines.... basically, any unit that has made the game ridiculous. since you nerfed the swarmhost into oblivion and "supposedly" people there can actually predict the impact of such a patch.. which means blizzard INTENTIONALLY destroyed zerg ability to compete with lategame terran mech and protoss air... and it's pretty obvious that zerg has virtually no chance of winning early game against either race due to nexus cannon and reapers into widow mine respectively.. so zerg has to midgame all in from now on. however, the reality is that the new broken units of LoTV are there to stay, since if Blizzard can't realize how broken they are by now, they never will until it's too late.. there is no way to fix LoTV reasonably without at least nerfing cyclones and drop siege tanks AS MUCH AS SWARMHOSTS, BLIZZARD! that's FAIR.

Zerg has hardly been hurt in top tournament representation since the SH nerf, so I'm not sure if you are just trolling or are just struggling to learn to make something else except swarm hosts in your own games?
Yes they could do with being looked at again I guess (although they were very good for a long long time, maybe it's just their turn being a bit crap?). For you to suggest that Blizzard 'wrecked HOTS' because of this is a bit ridiculous imo.
Also from what I've heard of the LOTV beta, Protoss is by far the weakest race, not Zerg. So basically your suggestions to remove basically EVERY new unit that Terran or Protoss gets is also ridiculous.
Edit - Oh and OT = This poll could have done with the 'I'm reserving judgement until I play the beta' option! I voted for the Life option since that was the closest.

for me, the faster start is welcome to a point . . but i really did enjoy the cheeses. the second you have 2 bases up however its like hots but you have that urgency to expand cos ur not going to have that income form long, its creating too much to do and when terrans start really abusing drop play and damaging eco, its going to terrans winning all the way to the bank
i know this is crazy but could you really fuck it up and have a 6 OR 12 worker start at random?

I watched a game where qxc parade pushed and the whole game against zerg. Sounds like fun but it was terribly boring. Not enough units on the map to do real damage to any of the zergs 4 bases. Idk. I'm gonna be sad to see HotS go. Can you believe you needed an upgrade just to siege your tanks?? That was suchhh a welcomed addition.

Where is the 'I think this poll is terrible option?' Something seems to be missing.
