Of all the changes made to SC2 that made it mechanically easier than BW, this is by far one of the least significant.

Calm the hell down, this won't change anything.

Anyone know if you can see enemies information like this or is it for your own main buildings?

Maybe this will save the top pros, but they either glance at the mineral line, see its good, or they quickly box them as fast as you would click the nexus and check, this has no difference at high level of play, and in lower leagues those players will often forget to check as they're worrying about army control and general macro, like making stuff.

By the time we get to third expansion, I am willing to bet there will be auto chrono,inject and mule. People then will be saying that it'll only help Bronze league because any good players know when to chrono,inject or mule. lol

Makes no difference at high level of play, and helps out lower level players.

Why so much complaining?

honestly, like Hiea says, it'll mostly help lower league players, and honestly, it's a really nice thing to do, to ease their already overwhelmed mind and make it easier for newer players to play starcraft and get into it.

Exactly lol it is pretty hypocritical thinking if you are against this but are okay with all the other changes that made this game easier.

Great change - now it is so fucking terribly impractical to check number of workers, but you can do it - they just upgrade interface, i cant see nothing wrong with this - this game is difficult enough to diffirentate between good and bad players. This whole situation reminds me times when Blizz introduced display of time, I remember when some retards shouted: "ZOMG this game will be so noob mode lol" - and it didnt happen.

Good work on this Blizz. I like the change.

No, that's just not true. It's much easier to count how many harvesters you may have in a base (and if you're not sure you can box it) than it is to inject, mule and chrono with every one of your bases.
Also these buildings/queen have other abilities, so it's just no.

Okay, I will keep this recorded and we will see who wins the $1,000,000. Actually, we can make it a billion if you wish.

More information is never bad..............................It's not like the game transfers workers for you. Looking forward to this change.

This feature will stay for sure, doesn't affect balance at all and is good for newer players. I really don't like it though.

So by that logic, now that you can rally units from a barracks to an enemy unit and have it attack without any other control, we can probably expect Blizzard to introduce an auto army micro feature later on?

I really don't think its necessary. My friend did bring up that it really doesn't affect how the pros play, as they do this seemingly, but it makes it a lot easier for new players, or those of us who play casually. I would rather not have it in the game, maybe out of elitism but I guess its unavoidable to having a bigger player base, which is I'm sure what Blizzard wants. I would prefer people teaching themselves, but eh... I voted no, I would rather not have it.

Because there is whole bunch of elitist jerks, who thinks that SC2 should be as user unfriendly and should have as terible interface that only the most devoted of all should be able to play this game properly.

They're dumbing down the game again! Automine! MBS!

*rabble rabble rabble*

Honestly though, I don't see it changing much for pros. Instead of boxing your mineral line you click on your main building to see your worker count.
