It's not meant to look impressive by modern standards.
Does CS?
It's just to improve compatibility and functionality on modern systems - which is extremely welcome.

I'm glad this is coming out but I'm going to be honest here..
The BW remastered graphics look/feel like Starcraft beta compared to the original. And that's not a good thing, I watched all the graphics comparisons on the sc website, and every single one made me move the slider back to see the bw in it's old gfx style. The zerglings, tanks and goliaths look especially bad.
That's quite sad. Guess I'll be staying with the free version

Now we can see dragoons being retarded in glorious 4k HD. What a time to be alive!

I am disappointed, I expected more. I hope we at least get automining (I didn't see it get mentioned).
For me this is one more run of the campaign, maybe a few games using new matchmaking and it will end up watching BW tournaments if those will be using new graphics and observer modes.

I don't love the new graphics either. Some models look good, some don't. But I will play HD anyways.

It was mentioned - as something they for sure won't be implementing (automining). Thank god.

However, that digital edition is currently unavailable for purchase since they're preparing to go F2P this coming week, so you can be patient and wait for that. Got the CD and played LAN 100% back in the day xD

I'm glad for the BW fans. Will surely get into it a bit, but surely not as much as SC2 :p
Must says i'm a bit afraid for SC2 public,i don't think that will split that much in the end. I don't think ppl who were a bit turned off by graphics gonna enjoy "12 units &1 building ladder" really long, but in korea that's another thing. Although there too ppl might gave SC2 a retry.
But this gave me huge hopes, the hope that War3 is the next on the list =p

It is basically confirmed as otherwise 1.16 replays won't be able to play. Basically nothing gameplay wise is changed!

Hype! I am definitely going to try this out.

And even if people will cry about the sprite limitation removal, please just acknowledge that Blizzard did an amazing job so far. Maybe valks will be stronger now and it is kind of a balance related update, but keep calm and wait to see how it pans out first, before jumping on the hate train.
I was really scared that Blizzard would screw this up majorly, but if they keep their word they managed to make this as good as possible. Oh my god. Imagine the change this could have. TvZ: valks can be used reliably to get air dominance, similar to corsairs in PvZ. TvP: mass valks will actually be a counter to carriers. Imagine the interceptors all dying to some valks in the blink of an eye. TvT: mass BCs and mass Wraiths in the late game are basically nerfed. Maybe players will opt for BCs over Wraiths more since Wraiths are more fragile You'll still be able to do BC and Wraith just like usual, it wasnt super uncommon to see 3-4 valks mixed in regardless.
If you mass valks vs carriers you're going to lose lmao, you're suddenly stuck with a lot of supply that does absolutely nothing
TvZ some valks were used at times but not super extensively i think

Anyone imagine the remastered version will have a smooth 60fps feel to it?

Honestly I'm a little bit disappointed. I really hoped and thought there would be some kind of 'new player' mode which would make the whole UI less tedious. No one except oldschool BW players wants single building and 24 unit selection per hotkey group and no smartcasting. For (potentionally) new players and casual players a mode where this would have been made easier and more like SC2 would have been a great addition.

That's not even necessary , just intermediate frames. Tend to agree with people expressing underwhelming reaction. It leaves not much to your imagination, it's just terribly flat.

There's plenty of mods in SC2 that exclusively use BW units and values.

Man just try the game first. You just proved you never played it and you are disappointed that the changes are mostly for ppl who are actually playing the game rather than those who only complain about it.

Is there a vod up of the presentation up yet?
