why the fuck are ppl disagreeing with this? Its not like this is gonna change ANYTHING or allmost anything. This is only to help deaf ppl or who ever plays without ingame sound.

Smart change

will be a bit harder now to try to disguise 2 nydus's as 1 now, but ppl usually don't read the notifications anyways

Does that mean I go to the location when pressing the Spacebar afterwards?

Be honest, when was the last time you actually paid attention to the on-screen text notifications... Compare this to the practical usefulness of the macro mechanic notifications in 1.3. I played 9 games this morning, and only noticed it once -- that was because one happened to be frozen on screen when my opponent left and the score screen dialog box popped up... This is helpful if you can't hear the sounds for whatever reason, and totally inconsequential otherwise.

Seems reasonable. Will mean I won't occasionally lose a pvz as I was listening to music and i didn't hear the scream.

Let's face it, if you were desperate enough to use a nydus offensively, you were probably desperate enough to rely on your opponent not hearing it as well (as hard as it is to miss the scream). Even if it is a nice change for the hearing impaired, it reduces some of the nydus effectiveness.

I'm surprised people don't understand what is meant here. The text alert is WHEN IT'S PLANTED, not when the units can come out. You don't get "Nuclear Launch Detected!" when the Nuke lands, right?


The blue post didn't specify what the exact change they'd make would be, but I expect it will be that the message appears at the same time the sound occurs, which is when the Nydus completes.

What next, a warning when Protoss puts down a Dark Shrine? =/


Why not a warning when you get scanned?

It won't really change that much imo

I cannot believe that there are people who have time to read those alerts on the side of the screen.

Wow, some people on this forum really need to think before they post. The text is obviously not going to appear when the worm is planted, the text will come the same time as the sound. It's so obvious it really shouldn't even need to be clarified.

Well when you're deaf and can't get anything but visual queues.... you generally learn how to handle a lot more visual information. I really like all the things they are doing for the game that are fair and even for deaf people.

Getting a visual warning at the same time as an audio warning is perfectly fine.


Anectode evidence of disabled people handling more information:

+ Show Spoiler +
My friend plays Civilization which is a board game, that and Settlers of Catan. He plays with a group of board game oriented people and one of the guys he plays with is blind (lost his sight after birth). He remembers what every square on the board is at all times while playing. He makes a grid in his head and he has the concentration to "always" have that mental imagine in his mind. These games have randomized boards every game. It's not like learning all the squares at Monopoly

Thus, anecdotily, one could imagine that deaf people can grasp a lot more visual queues with then the average 5 sense person.


Edit: Chill : Because we can. That and people think it's like when the Nydus worms start making which by the wording of the OP (original poster) is not the case.

Yes how can you disagree with this. It is for deaf people so they arent at a disadvantage. You hear the noise or read the text at the same time. No problem whatsoever dont QQ blizz about this. They have made plenty of bad decisions lately (cough*removingwinlossratio*cough), but this is not one of them.

I don't see the problem as long as it's at the same time as the sound. Who misses the nydus scream anyway ? I don't even miss the softer scream you hear when your spire finishes

Now that could be problematic, I hope it isn't the case. It is the case with nukes I believe, unless they changed it since the beta. Not really a huge problem with nukes because no one uses them but nydus do see the light of day every now and then.

Try playing while listening to black metal. It's actually impossible to make out.

I don't see any issue with this at all. Nuke has both a visual and audio warning.

I would like to see nydus being used in less cheesey ways than "Nydus in your base lols!!" but the cost may make that more of a lategame option. I dunno, on these larger maps it just feels like drops take way too long to do.

yes lets make nydus even shittier than it already is, i just go for ovie drop now nydus is stupid that he can just pull his workers when he sees/hears it and only get a few lings out before it dies. ad it can't be cancelled and it is super expensive i figured blizz would want more variety not less but i guess i stand corrected
I came here to kick ass and chew bubble gum and I'm all out of... ah forget it

R.I.P Nydus


Did you notice there is a sound that informs the opponent that Nydus is up? What is the freaking diference between have an audio or a sight advice?? Did u read the deaf issue with the nydus?

Edited.: just overreacted.
