It was originally suggested for people who are deaf by a player who is deaf on Blizzard's forums. You know, deaf as in those who can't hear the in-game sounds? Games should be accessible to everyone and this change has nothing to do with being a "noob". | ||

You know. . . Whatever happened to being good enough to prevent halfwit tactics such as nydus worms? Is it really that hard to spread supply depots pylons or overlords throughout your base so you can, oh i dunno use the friggin mini map? | ||

If we can justify giving this to nydus, it isn't too much of a stretch to give a warning whenever a mothership appears on the field, and other things like that. There's already a warning for motherships. It's a 2 second game freeze. | ||

It'll go off when the insanely obvious and loud nydus roar goes off. | ||

Exactly. I think when people are confusing the Blue post when he compared it to the nuke, thinking it might be when the nydus starts building, like when the nuke is detected. I'll edit the OP, thought it was pretty obvious that the warning comes with the nydus scream but I guess not. | ||

I think (I HOPE) that it's just because they aren't realizing there are hearing impaired people who play SC2. It's nothing about making the game "noob friendly" and everything about making it accessible to all players. | ||

Lots of stuff pops up on screen for everything EXCEPT nydus worms. So then how do you play the game vs a Zerg who uses nydus and you dont see it on the minimap building? IMO this is a fine change all the more to get individuals playing this game who otherwise cannot for fear of something like a disability getting in the way. As long as it is reasonable to do so bliz should make it easier for those with physical disabilities or conditions to play the game. Now if only they can help red/green colourblind people out as I have heard some complaints from colour blind gamers about sc2 before (though cant exaclty remember what about atm). | ||

Yes, because the nuke text also appears as soon as it begins building. Honestly. | ||
