  • Starcraft II - retail Galaxy Map Editor = FAIL

    1. Beta maps may not be compatible with the retail game, as things such as rich minerals may be missing.

    2. To test a custom map, from within the editor, "File" and then "Test Document". This should read, "Test Map".

    3. The only way to actually play test a map results in a random race, no regard for team settings, no choice of race color, no choice of start location, no choice of AI. This is in a word pathetic of Blizzard. Also having to log online constantly is a waste of time and bandwdith.

    4. The beta and vernam7 's launcher was far superior to the retail Starcraft 2 and as it now stands, there will unlikely be many custom maps until a work around is achieved to make up for this Blizzard software blunder.

    In summary, Blizzard Starcraft 2 Galaxy Editor is trash software and it will be up to the community to add functionality to this FAILURE of a software product so that maps can be properly tested prior to release.

    Custom maps ought to be easily loaded and playable with all the options - this is NOT what Blizzard have released. Whoever was in charge of this mess needs to be fired for releasing such trash.
