Okay, so its like moving on to a new area. But you can go back to completed areas. As long as you can do that, I'm happy Thanks for the explanation. I thought it was more in the style of say, a zelda game. Where the world is open (mostly) from the start but in order to progress you need to complete certain 'missions' in order.
Just wondering...Are 'acts' like level 1, level 2, and when you beat one you move on to the next area? I thought Diablo gave you an open world (obviously not all of it would be open at the start). So I guess my question is, in diablo 2, when you beat an act can you return to that area and come back? Or is it that once you beat an act that area is 'beaten' and you move on to the next area? Sorry for the n00b question I think this in the right forum, but if not I apologize.
The editor has very great potential. The problem is 90% of people don't know how to use it well and we get dota, tower defense, etc... But the amount of stuff we have seen in the editor so far has a huge potential. There are single player dead space style games in production, for example. The sc2 editor has almost limitless possibility. As of now there are only a few maps that are really awesome. I don't actually do much custom gaming, I just use the editor.
I know I only have a few posts here, but I'm actually a website moderator at sc2mapster.com (for those who don't know, its sixens other site) and I use the galaxy editor tons. The newest patch is a major improvement to the custom games system, (search bar means pop system has very little effect now. we can play whatever we want) and the editor is the most powerful tool I've come across. The only problem is people who don't want to put some time into their maps say "its way to hard! Blizzard is so mean for making us an editor thats so complicated!". I can assure anybody who thinks the editor is confusing that with a few tutorials and some work, you will begin to understand the editor, stop struggling with it, and genuinely enjoy making maps. With the search bar added, people can advertise their map on the internet ( sc2mapster ftw!!) and people can play it right away.
Moderator to noob Thats the cycle of life, huh? I actually don't own D1 or D2 but D3 looks pretty cool so...I plan on buying it. There better be a D3 editor so Sixen can make D3mapster.com and I can obsess over modding yet another blizzard game:D
Hi everybody. I'm a moderator from sc2mapster.com. I found this site through one of Sixen's posts over there and checked it out....Thought I'd introduce myself, since I'll probably be posting here from time to time.

Aww I see my post count and moderator status didn't carry over from sc2mapster... lol Gotta start all over... I'M A NOOB AGAIN!!!
I think owning a blizzard game is enough (other than the WoW trial, which is why some of my friends got the sc2 beta). Lots of people are going to buy D3 who didn't own D2, so blizzard should hear the opinions of newbies as well as veterans . Just my opinion but.. yeah
I think there should be no micro-purchases in games. It's ridiculous. It gives advantages to people who have money. If blizzard implemented a Vanity Only store (where you could buy things that don't affect gameplay) I would not mind it too much, but I'd still rather have no way to sell items. I hope blizzard cracks down on people trying to sell thier items for real money.
