So basically instead of just getting an auditory warning for a nydus you are getting a visual one as well. I don't see the problem unless you are hoping your opponent isn't listening or has music playing.

Should help all the deaf gamers out there (Being entirely serious here), since it's the only big reactionary thing I can really think of without some kind of visual warning. And missing a nydus entirely is a pretty huge disadvantage.

Also,
Since you only hear the scream of a nydus worm when its done building, I would think you would get the text notification at the same time, so it shouldn't really change anything as far as trying to kill the nydus worm.

It makes little difference to anyone else.

Nuke text message is before nuke land, I think they mean same with nydus - just when you plant nydus sound goes on. I think nydus gonna be useless soon..

I'm okay with this because as far as I understand it, the alert will pop up at the same time as the sound playing. If you have a hearing disability (or play with the sound off) then this is definitely needed. And anyone with sound on who didn't notice the scream of the Nydus work definitely wont notice the text alert either.

If the alert comes up as the nydus starts being created though, then that's a different story. I really hope that's not what they mean to implement.

You are all misunderstanding the op! The text warning will come at the exact same moment when you hear the scream! Thats because deaf players can't hear it and so are at a disadvantage.

They aren't chaning gameplay, just the representation.

Why are people complaining over this?

Its a text based alert on the side. This really doesn't change anything in your gameplay. I fail to see how is this a bad move from Blizz.

Guys, I think what they mean is that the Nydus scream should be accompanied by text.

Not a text warning the second the Nydus starts...

"Warning!! Nydus worm inbound" + earthquake sounds.

Just like the campaign final mission.

You, and posters like you, seriously need to use some critical thinking. When does the text appear for the nuke? The same time the sound occurs.

When does the sound occur for the Nydus Worm? When it's finished building. Now using deductive reasoning, when do you think text will appear? HINT: There is a pattern here!

Sorry for the sarcasm, but this kind of thing is annoying. People are so quick to cry and complain about shit, and this in particular is meant for people with disabilities.

I don't see too much of an issue with this.

Nukes and Nydus already have a pretty obvious audio warning. Nukes have a text warning, but Nydus does not.

Now, if you've read the actual Blue Post and the OP that the post is responding to, you'll see that the reason for this change is to cater to deaf players or people playing without the sound on. It's a pretty big deal to get a visual warning for nukes but not one for a Nydus, especially if there is no sound.

If you read the OP in that thread it explains exactly why they made the change and why it was requested. If you play with sound the audio is a much more blatant cue and if you can't play with sound you are now getting information you are entitled too. I suspect anyone complaining hasn't understood the proposed change.

My bad, I was under the impression that the text warning would come BEFORE the sound.

Now all we need is a yellow text warning when a collosus is built! Everyone suggest this on bnet forums! Go go!

But seriously, I think nydus warning is FINE. Even if it is as you are building the nydus, hidden nydus is a lame gimmick anyway. Way more badass is a non hidden nydus built like a proxy plyon behind your army (see Moonglades stream for examples of its awesomeness), or defensive nydus connecting isolated expansions.

Why would this get anybody upset? For people who don't play with the sounds on, or actual deaf people, this is just a replacement for the screech.

People are understanding this change completely wrong. They aren't gonna play the sound of the nydus as it starts building. That's stupid, u might as well give us back bw nydus where u could only build on creep and dont go "RAWRRWARWARWARWRARWR" when it pops out and cost nothing. The text will display when the worm FINISHES.

Wow... rereading the bnet forum thread... this is to help DEAF players... not a game change... it will clearly not alert players before the nydus finishes building...

half the posts in this thread (including my first post) are very uninformed...

R.I.P Nydus

I think we should have a visual warning for when idiots post. Somewhat like the blue posts in the strategy section, only make the posts bright yellow on all the forums, that way it is easier to spot the retards from miles ways.
How the hell can you whine over this? Like, how is that possible?

There's one upside to guys like you: it makes me happy in realising that in comparison to guys like you I'm awesome and smart

EDIT:
Even if he misread it: I do not think it is too much to ask to take a couple of seconds to think about it before posting whiny posts like this.

I think some visual alert is fine, it is no more advantageous than the audio warning. I'm sure hearing impaired players will appreciate it.
