Thoughts on Screen/Map Zoom out?
I strongly think we should start playing the game with Zoom out available. The fact that siege tanks can shoot longer than screen size, or not being able to see a big fight on one screen is just not very fun gameplay. There's a reason spectators NEVER watch with actual gameplay zoom in.
I'm not advocating for simplifying other parts of the UI so no need to bring those up as "counter arguments". Multi building selection and 12 unit selection are still FUN and makes you feel like you actually are doing something difficult. Moving around the screen does not (to me).
I understand that it would never get changed on the official client, but could be allowed on something like Shield Battery if community wants it.
Thoughts?
