I think my username for that is WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW, i.e. 32 Ws in a row.
I played in the Alpha 2. It was pretty awesome. If anyone has played the free shooter game S4, then let me tell you this: Hawken is much like S4 but the mobility is toned down and people are generally a lot tankier.

What's the error? Maybe it was a server issue?
Looks okay. Downloading for the hell of it.

Someone made an introductory video to what Hawken is about.

Anyone want to play with me?
This game has moved into Steam, have had a change of developers, and a load of updates. I play regularly and have most of the major gameplay elements unlocked.

So it's been a couple of years, how is this game? Looks pretty good.

NudeRaider -- blessed innocent soul knows nothing of the strife we had before EUDs were discovered

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically[2026-6-21. : 4:26 am]
Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings[2026-6-20. : 6:15 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.
