There is a lot of people who would be pretty upset not to see the return of some of there favorite bw units, but I have pretty good faith in blizz in that if they don't create new units they're probably making a good effort to improve or innovate in other areas. I am hoping for a lot of new battle.net features.
I don't want to see a return of the BW units. I'm not paying another 60 bucks (or even another 20) to see Lurker 2.0. Either give me something new, be it a unit, ability, or whatever, or don't release the expansion-- don't sell me old stuff with new graphics.

The problem with this news might be that they don't change the content in the multiplayer possibly, but just patch it a bit while adding a new campaign.
I for one am only interested in the multiplayer part, but im forced to buy a campaign expansion which im not interested in just to be able to play online again with changes they could apply with a patch too.

It's much more likely they mean they will replace units / change how some units work fundamentally.
Not that they won't add units.

Oh man can someone give that OP a warning?
He obviously left out the "just" on purpose in order to get some attention for his thread. That's just pathetic.
I was like "can't imagine that going to happen". Checked the Interview and yep. He misquoted. Weird how you can copy past the whole paragraph but somehow, someway a word goes loose

Maybe they will just make the current units more useful.
|
im pretty sure they're gonna add units and remove some of the lesser used ones.

Indeed..
Zerg got the least amount of units afaik
We at least need a new spell caster and a cloaked unit (something like the lurker).

ROFL that was a terrible misquote. Haha.
I think P and T may have some units changed/removed while Z will get a tier 1.5 spellcaster equivalent to the sentry. This unit would help with early game defense and late game utility. I imagine Z would have some unit changes aswell.

@dilla Blizzard has repeatedly stated clearly that they are making additions/changes/etc for the multiplayer part of the expansions as well as the new campaigns

Wait don't all the races have the same number of units?

Not at all. Zerg has fewest. Unless you wanna count broodlings/changelings/infested terrans.

They will never be able to get away with not adding new units to multiplayer. Units feel bloated and overlapping? Make it work!

I guess i don't really care about new units. However, I do hope they change a few things in the gameplay department. I'd like to see some useless abilities worked on such as neosteel frames and neural parasite. Really, even some unit redoes would be sick(reaper, hydra, carrier, corrupter, ultralisk).

That isn't what they said. They said that they WILL add new units, but will also change or remove existing units to get rid of redundancies and other things that aren't fun.

It would be a shame to only get the next chapter of the campaign. Not touching multiplayer at all.
Hopefully the expansions will improve multiplayer in some way like improving Bnet 2.0 or something.

I bet theyre going to add heroes to the multiplayer game instead.
Don't even joke about that. 
I wouldn't mind them not adding units to be honest. If anything new units would just completely reset all progress made on solving the metagame and delay game balance.

Not just new unit could mean a lot of things.
Here are some suggestions to Dustin and the rest of SC2 development team.
Problem with Ladder:
The point system for ladder is too one dimensional. There needs to be more depth to it.
For example, people seek to obtain "prestigious" accolades that not many people can earn.
The only real motivation to laddering is the portrat that we obtain from winning a certain number of games. But.. What if you expand that further into "Divisions" ?
The only reason why Facebook got popular in the first place is because of its pretigious name.
People wanted to use ".harvard" behind their email address or ".princeton"
So why not host a weekly tourney consisting of top 10 players from each division and these 10 people would play a tourney to win the top place.
The winners would move on to the next prestigious division[how you make certain division more prestigious is your decision], so on and so forth.
Also you can implement a portrat for winning 50 champions or 100 champions. These will take true dedication and you can truly say oh shit... this guy is good by just looking at the portrait.
