The SEN Magazine idea has officially become a SEN project, making it the first thing to make use of our long dormant Projects tab. This is an effort to regain SC community recognition, and to just have some fun, an online magazine is being created by The Staredit Network. It will have an issue published every other week, with articles on topics such as Use Map Settings, Modding, SC2, SC history, and a variety of lesser known subjects that are often left in the dark on the more mainstream or 'official' Blizzard fan sites.

The Official SEN Online Magazine Project


All members are encouraged to participate in the discussions. Even if you don't have the writing skills to generate an article, you can still give your input on import decisions concerning things from the page design, to the magazine's name. We are also in great in need of artists. Even if you can't spare the time to create something yourself, give some constructive criticism or praise for those who have.

Most importantly, the position of Editor-in-Chief still needs filling. With Drant declining the invitation, it's really open to anyone now. http://www.staredit.net/topic/7805/

If you would just like to be a lead editor in a specific department that you feel you excel at, please apply because you are needed. http://www.staredit.net/topic/7804/

If you are spreading the word about this, a link to this topic would be the most ideal.

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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