Your thoughts on the Starcraft 2 Galaxy Editor

[Nouw]

So as I was looking through Youtube for more genius creations with this gem I witnessed something I've been meaning to see for ages.


So what are your thoughts on it? Have you made anything awesome with it? Share 'mods' that you've found!

I haven't played many custom maps in SC2. For some reason I like Wc3's custom maps better. I've toyed around with it and haven't figured it out yet. For some reason it just doesn't feel like the wc3 editor.

I could work some things out in the WC3 world editor, but I found this to be WAY to confusing.

I'm glad to see the cool products other people make, though.

Desert Strike is the only custom map that I've really played beyond 1 game.

Just so we're clear; the "Galaxy" Editor is the standard editor that came with the game right? Because my game simply labels it "StarCraft II Editor". If so, I bloody well hate it so far. Okay, no, I don't, but it's a real nuissance to learn, though having some experience with WarCraft III's World Editor helps.

At least melee maps aren't difficult to make.

With any luck I'll have made something worth playing soon. Truth be told; I like it enough to continue struggling through it's rookie-hostile interface, lol.

I've seen a fair few interesting creations made with it, and I'd really like to find out how the pros do some of the stuff they've created. Even transferring the Reaper's cliff-jump ability to another unit is ludicrously tricky.

Don't Touch My Firebat is the best map in the entire game.
