On the navigation on the left there's a starcraft section titled 스타크프트래. The second link down from there is "map download" (맵 다운로드)



Following that link will bring you to a list of topics where it looks like people are posting there maps.

However you can't just look at the posts and download the maps. You will have to sign up for naver, and then join the clans naver page. Part of the joining process you have to go through something called "real name verification" which you need a Korean phone number or an ipin. Look at this page for help obtaining an ipin https://sejongcityforeigners.wordpress.com/2015/10/16/how-to-get-the-i-pin-ipin-in-korea/

It's a whole ordeal, I don't have an ipin or Korean phone number so that's as far as I could get. You might have better luck asking the clan leader for maps.



None.

You don't need an IPIN for real name verification on Naver. I made my account a while ago so I don't remember the exact steps, but as a foreigner you can get your account verified by sending Naver a photo of a valid ID (I used my New York drivers license and it worked just fine.)



all i am is a contrary canary
but i'm crazy for you
i watched you cradling a tissue box
sneezing and sniffling, you were still a fox

Oh nice, i'll have to see if I can find that. I couldn't seem to get past the real name verification, but i'm glad to know there's a way to do it without an ipin.

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.

Symmetry -- :wob:

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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

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

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.

NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
[2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:

Oh_Man -- makes me wonder if SEN knows anything about the topic
