Its hard to mess up rally lol come on really?

Yeah it isn't worth complaining about, the worker count stuff is what weirds me out.


The auto rally almost seems worse to me. the worker count doesn't actually change a persons ability to make workers. The auto rally and sending of probes to mineral lines just automates the game XD


It is only the first base you have though. The worker count stuff means that every player will now have perfect saturation of mineral fields with little effort, seems lame to me.

Thats actually a very small unimportant change. Hitting S on a hatchery selects all larva already :/ I dont know why thats so funny. If you want one larva for a roach just hit R once as is standard.

No it doesnt, the worker count shows /24 for the minerals. This means people will still need to:

1) constantly make probes

2) transfer at 16

3) re-rally when each base has 16 workers

4) select the extras and retain 16 workers at each base when saturating a third base.

It doesn't change a single mechanic and means nothing when you are actually playing.

This option is OFF by default. Unless you change it, you can't even click enemy units to see upgrades.

Looks like the warhound railgun got nerfed a bit from 25 to 23? Probably a good thing...

What happened to that super-thor? Regular thor is back, but I don't think it was changed.

Mothership core has a movement speed of .47...cool...

Tempest damage nerfed from 35 to 30 if I have that right. Ouch...no wonder that warp prism took 7-8 shots to go down

Clicking on larva with ctrl pressed to select was too hard, right?

It doesn't really take more skill to manually check how many workers there are, just a little more time. As far as I'm concerned reducing the number of actions it takes to do a given action, so long as there's still plenty to do, makes the game better because it increases the number of decisions-per-action.

I'm not sure why anyone would want that on. Personally, I sometimes select them individually so I can make drones with the ones closer to the minerals in the early game.

But now you have ingame reminder floating over every Town Hall of your saturation. That takes the skill away.

LOL as if this would have any influence on the decisions. Even in Broodwar with way harder mechanics players were able to basically pull off the perfect decisions most of the time.


Blizzard should just fucking stop to make this game even easier on the mechanics part.
