This is cool, but I will wait for the reviews first.
Warcraft 1 and 2 Remastered and the long-awaited 2.0 patch update for Warcraft 3: Reforged have just launched on PC for Warcraft's 30th anniversary

I wonder if they fixed the pathfinder in warcraft1. It was a really smart wallfollower, but it could go in circles in the tunnel levels.

I think they’re meant to be faithful to the originals so probably not.

RIP Warcraft 1 and 2.

With always online DRM, I’m sure. Fuck you Blizzard.

If the remastered versions add modern controls that’d be super. It’s the main gripe I have with the older games besides low resolutions.
Agent_Karyo@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
You mean like updating unit selection in Warcraft 2; it is limited to ~9 units per control group from what I remember.

I watched someone stream it and freaked out that they grouped 10 trolls

Orks and humans had no multi select 🙃 apparently they’re adding that in though which might make it playable.

I love the old games but I wish that unit pathing and attacking would’ve been updated a little. Or at least for the remastered version, or have it an option in the settings.
Another thing that always bothered me a bit was the max amount of selected units in many older RTS games. Sometimes it’s limited by the UI too, but they could update that as well.

I would definitely play Warcraft 2 remastered. I’ve played the version on GOG and it was solid, but a remastered version is always nice.
Haven’t played Warcraft 1 in over 25 years. Wouldn’t mind trying it for fun.

Got into it yesterday, there’s a toggle to switch between old and new graphics during gameplay. And there’s also an option for original or updated music, it was an instant nostalgia kick lol

So I remember of the first one was that it was brutal as fuck

I loved the first one so much. I’ve been hearing the remaster for WC1 won’t have online multiplayer. That’s a huge disappointment for me. Hardly anyone ever got to experience that game multiplayer. I played it with my friend exactly once, when I brought my computer over to his house. It worked over LAN and I think also modem, but not the internet.

Guys, it doesn’t look good. They basically just spit-shind it.
