ArchonWing Wrote:M builds a marine while c builds a medic. Yes they do begin with the same letter, but that's still annoying. I don't know many people that can associate the letter c with medic immediately
It's because Medic is a BroodWar only unit. The marine was in original starcraft and was thus given M. I think C is a totally OK hotkey for medic - since e, d and I would have been just as illogical. How do YOU think they should solve the marine/medic hotkey conflict?:)
I really like the interface for almost all blizzard games (Not warcraft 1, though :) ). Easy to learn, mostly intinuitive and just nice ;).
Pete, if you select a (unitproducing) building in Warcraft 3, rightclick is "gather" point. So Blizzard learned their lesson from starcraft. Should make you happy :P
I wish there was more unit grouping hotkeys though. I go through 9 hotkeys in a second, although it can be considered a intentional limitation, since you could macro in a siiiick way if you had like 18 unit groupings. Yumm, macro...
Also, I'm ruined by playing Quake with my brother. He used inverted mouse so now I do it too. Can't play with "normal" mouse. Bah.
When I play *most* games (very few exceptions) I sit with my (left) index, long and ring finger on AWD, pinky on shift and thumb on space. The best FPS / RTS / Diablo hand position, IMO :)
