The reason sc1 became a game of economy and how to get away with as much economy as you can without dying was because of ramp advantage and worker priority. You knew your workers could be used to defend and the backside of that was that you weren't mining with them, not that they died instantly. | ||

Balance-wise of course it needs a ton of work. The fact that zerg mines faster with 15 drones than protoss does with 24 probes combined with their insanely potent macro mechanic combined with the fact that zerglings are faster than workers even without speed and not on creep so that it is literally impossible to scout until you have air units makes Zerg such a joke. | ||

Stop spreading lies. Each of the races workers mine at the same rate. | ||

I remember seeing a thread on mining rates of workers. Although I can't be bothered to search for it as I already know the info. In SCI the probes mine faster than drones which mine faster than SCVs. | ||

The way the game is now is fun but there is much more room for improvement IMHO. Also: On March 31 2010 05:44 TheAntZ wrote: seriously? wow that is fucking RETARDED if true Really...what the fuck. I dont see any logic in that I don't see that as bad, thing. Actually it's nice that there is more diversity between the races *but* it is of course harder to balance. What matters is not the perfect numerical balance but actual balance in number of possible strategies, relation of timings in army strenght/tech progres by diffrent races or maps and general diversity of game play styles avilble (viable for winning at pro level) for players. If blizzard can achive that having imbalanced worker mining times, supply counts, or any simmilar feature, i'm fine with that.  | ||

I wouldnt have a problem with zerg workers mining faster, if you couldnt get a lot of them but with the larvae mechanic, you can get a fuckton early on and just switch to roach or ling really fast if you need to, unlike in sc1, where switching actually takes at least some time | ||
