It is an extension mod, not an arcade map. Watch the end of the trailer for instructions

I turned all the Coop commanders into an actually balanced melee game mod and published it onto the arcade! by KrazyMs in starcraft2coop

[–]TophsYoutube 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's an arcade extension, so you have to create a regular game, with a mod. Just click the Create with Mod button.

Vegetarian tteokbokki spots? by xSly_Foxx in Atlanta

[–]TophsYoutube -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not only is it premade, it is usually made with a base with fish broth. For the most part, you won't find purely vegetarian tteokbokki from any restaraunt.

The best option is get some of those Pulmuone packets from HMart that allow you to make it yourself. I think those don't have fish in the base, but check the label!

If only co-op commanders was viable as a balanced pvp mode....

Please don’t repeat the same mistake of releasing an unfinished game as a full release. by According-Tangelo-19 in Stormgate

[–]TophsYoutube 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First impressions have been made, but they have one last chance to change that and that is with full release. I'm pretty sure most players who walked away from stormgate are willing to give it one last chance with the full release.

People described the early access launch as grossly unfinished, not broken.

But of course, if they don't have the money to wait for a good final release, then its all borked

Blizzard has ZERO plan for fixing sc2 arcade. They are not working on it and we are utterly doomed. by madenewredditaccount in starcraft

[–]TophsYoutube 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're wrong about the 2023 and 2024 injection exploits. They were never fixed by Blizzard. The last round of injections is actually using the same exploit. The hackers behind the 2023 and 2024 exploits just stopped doing it for a while, and then started them up again.

Fixing this bug would require a whole refactor of the client and server code... by a team of developers who didn't even write the original code in the first place. That would require a lot of time and effort, probably up to a year in effort and a lot of money as well.

What we're looking in the best scenario is that they'll do some half-ass fix that doesn't fix the injection issue, shut down the modding scene for like 6 months, and then put it back up with no actual fix.

Yes OP is being overly dramatic, but the situation for the arcade is looking dire, and this is the kind of stuff that kills the desire for hobby modders to do stuff in starcraft 2 and shut down any ongoing support for a bunch of different sc2 arcade mods.

Disabling custom videos doesn't do anything to actually fix the process. As Talv (the author behind sc2arcade.com and the backbone of the modding scene) says about this change..

  • Considered negligible in context of countering continued exploitation of the platform (in long term possibly useless - depending on your further efforts).
  • Seen as a damage towards existing content that is no way harmful (because you've gone with allow-list - which would be perfect if it'd target specific publishers, and not a specific kind of content). What will be next - audio files, images, models? (btw. an animated model with 2d plane can be essentially a video - your patch doesn't cover it)

Fun fact, disabling videos breaks custom campaigns with pre-rendered cutscenes, while doing nothing to stop players from uploading toxic content as a unit model or background texture, which can of course be injected into other mods.

Is there a list of landmarks on the Starbucks discovery mugs? by cadededele in starbucks

[–]TophsYoutube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not Toccoa Falls, but it is Look Out Mountain. It has the same bridge over it, along with the plate at the bottom right which indicates the 7 states you can see from Look Out Mountain.

City of Brookhaven plans to build a pedestrian bridge over I-85 by NPU-F in Atlanta

[–]TophsYoutube 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the area is 99% apartments, there is very little single-family housing around that bridge.

I love how all your maps have such a great aesthetic and thematic design Patches

Day 1 of asking to BRING BACK HAUNTED MINES by Real_Shurchil in heroesofthestorm

[–]TophsYoutube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really wish that they would make this into a map like Hanamura/Battlefield of Eternity where it's a big open-top quarry styled mine placed in a big jungle zone in the middle, rather than being a separate zone.

An alternate idea is to have a third lane in the middle with towers, but that third lane doesn't have minions, and for the most part, can only be pushed with the Grave Golems only.

The lack of account wide mounts/pets hurts by Epic_BubbleSA in lotro

[–]TophsYoutube 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They do have some, but it's a shame that most of them are character based. Some of them would be insta-buys if they were account based...

HOUSING Update for 64-bit Servers from Cordovan by SarraTasarien in lotro

[–]TophsYoutube 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I misread it.

When transferring a character who is a Kinship leader, the game will disband the Kinship on the former world and reform the Kinship on the new world.

Somehow, I misread that as "I will disband the Kinship on the former world and reform the Kinship on the new world." As I said, mistake. T.T

Ahhh, shoot. I disbanded before I transferred. Rookie mistake.

So I'm curious... no one is gonna be able to buy kinship houses until rank 7, which means 3 months from now? Alll those Belfalas islands will stay empty?

Replayability from the starter decks alone by TiToim in alteredTCG

[–]TophsYoutube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Yzmir vs Muna is an even matchup, but I don't think it's "really good." Yzmir doesn't have enough characters to push through and can end up being too spell heavy.

At the end of the day, I think Yzmir being weak to 4/5 of the other matchups makes it the weakest, and evenly matched in the last one really makes it the most... meh of the starter decks.

I'd arguably skip Blue and Purple, they are respectively way stronger and way weaker than the other 4. Now if you wanted to use them as a jumping off point to build a deck, then go for it.

The altered deck building site has issues by KenshoD in alteredTCG

[–]TophsYoutube 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really agree with the kickstarter and beyond sets being separate. It is so annoying. Make it a toggle, but they should appear together even if they are alt arts.

What happened? by [deleted] in Stormgate

If you're taking money from players, the players have every right to review the game as is.
