I ran through the demo mission at Blizzcon on hard; the mechanics are 1:1 as far as I could tell.
The update is pretty awesome from a graphics perspective, but it is definitely not modified in any way mechanically. I'll buy it since it means I don't have to monkey around with resolution shit to get it to display properly at 1080p (not even awesome mode.) And it has been awhile since I ran through War 3 and FT. Honestly my standout from the whole blizzcon ordeal.

I kind of enjoy coop in SC2. Clearly WC has enough heroes and iconic maps to do something similar. I don't know that I would pay a bunch for a re-skin but add some modern game modes and altered units/mechanics and I'd consider it.

No way to know yet, but it wouldn't surprise me if they do. Either way, it's a remake rather than a remaster with any story changes.

I mean it's been what, 14 years of relentless recons every time they write new lore? I just don't see how it really matters anymore. I mean yeah, you're technically correct that it's a remake instead of a remaster, but I'm beyond being upset about warcraft retcons at this point.
I was never upset by the retcons in WoW. Mildly annoyed maybe, but certainly not upset. This pisses me off though as the point behind remastering a game like this is to provide modern enhancements to a beloved game. Changing the story on top of those enhancements makes it an entirely different game.
And this is why my previously mentioned "fuck pre-ordering" stance is important.

The delay is probably trying to figure out how to let gold spammers send you channel invites.

WC3 in my opinion hit an excellent middle ground. It was detailed enough to give you an idea of what was going on, but also let you fill in the gaps, and create your own image in the game.

If they neuter the custom map and use the same custom map system that Starcraft II used they will be fucking up immensely. For the second time.
You had some cool custom maps in SC2 but it was way harder to actually find games of shit you wanted compared to SC:BW and WC3.

how many people were actually playing customs in sc2 though? sc has always been the more 'serious' game I'm not that surprised it took me forever to find games, even just TD games for a while.
I haven't been in the editor in quite a while but what was the issue with it? Genuinely curious as I have no real experience on it. I made quite a few WC3 maps though.
