Wasn't very happy to hear about location hot keys being F5-F8, kind of awkward for me, I hope they will allow for a remap. Overall I really liked this article, good work guys.

Blizzard may annoy everyone with their lack of release dates, but the end product certainly makes up for it.
Looks amazing.
There are many in this world like me who have killed their emotions.

Sounds like an amazing day, and i'm glad to hear single player will be a challenge. too many games are so simple single player these days. also those out of mission mechanics like the cantina and armory look amazing! what a great feel they will add to the game. Can't wait to get my hands on it!

I know they want to use the game engine for movies as often as they can, but are there still going to be the extremely HQ Blizzard CGI we've come to know and love? Raynor and Zeratul seem sort of meh.

The more and more I hear the Phrase "that feature will not be available at launch" SEVERELY makes me doubt the capabilities of the dev team, even more so when they add in the phrase "either in a patch OR expansion".

Can't help but feel it being intentional for a future promotional tool, which is a poor stunt.

On a lighter note, I do love the direction they made with the single player campaign. Looks kick ass! ^^

Day 9! Teach me how to do presentations!!!!

Oh and good read... hope they say something about high ground next time.

Boo lurker!
Not only does it suck because it's tier 3, and gets countered by detection. It stagnates the game when it gets dark swarm cast on it. Every unit should have at least two counters and the only terran counter to a lurker with swarm on it is irradiate... limiting the amount of tactics possible. It doesn't do its intended function of killing swarms of little units without swarm (rines have range) and don't always form a limbo line.

The lurker was fine in that it added some strategic depth. Getting fast lurkers meant that a terran could not move out so zergs could safely pump drones until a terran got science vessels. People liked to do lurker run-ins and drops... It also changed the pace of the game from move and kill to holding a position down (lurkers have to burrow to attack). Changing the pace of a game is good because it adds variation, which people like, just not to the point where action stops completely and a zerg can make an invincible unit with only a single counter. Having a single counter decreases variation...tic tac toe...

If only Blizzard made a new unit that emphasized the lurker's strong points without being too similar to a terran or protoss unit, and while not overlapping with the ultralisk on tanking as the big zerg unit and attacking swarms of weak units (or other similar weak points). I feel a unit like this would be a good addition and would help the zerg diversity issue? I'm really hoping Blizzard really thinks there is a diversity issue and is not just tagging on to what the community says is true.

We should have another contest like this one for the zerg... if not just for fun:

I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

This man speaks the truth! Great post! I loved the video of when Raynor and Zeratul meat again. Especially the part where Raynor says "Nice to meat you too".

This was a really awesome and informative post! Love it, and i love where the single player is going. At first i said i wasn't going to play it for a while but i might do it first!
You make it sound like there's a correlation between what should happen and what actually happens. I mean, life is chaotic and it's often unfair. I know it is for me.
