Rest assured I have written down every single one of these bugs and will address them all as time allows, so don't worry they will all be fixed and if they aren't they'll be mentioned in the loading screen as game bugs until I can (hopefully) fix them, though 99.9% of these definitely appear to be fixable. Thank you for all your hard work!  | ||

Telling a larva to morph into a viper works fine, but tries to trick you into thinking it's a zergling; it says while in egg form that it's morphing into a zergling. Also, the viper has no scan move command, forcing you to tab through units to attack if you want to use an ability of the viper's at the same time. Banelings(tried to use a baneling cloud attack if you couldn't already tell) don't function normally with the attack command, so I don't think it had one. I had to tell the banelings to just explode. | ||

Blizzard's replicant was able to steal workers. To stay true to the HotS showing I think you should make them able. I don't believe stolen units get 3/3, but I didn't see that in the mod anyway, so maybe you reversed that. As for gaining access to abilities with replicate spell, (idk what you already use) but an 'or' - 'replicate buff' could be used to allow individual units to gain access, but only if you gain them from the spell. Also the Thor didn't have modified data other than cost. The Odin was nice to see, but the Thor does 65x2 from what I heard, with no air attack. Simple fix, just takes an extra minute As for the shredder, it's really annoying, maybe you could go without the stuff flying out of it. Also when it dies the shrapnel is ridiculously huge. Oh PS I loved the Tempest attack animation! | ||

The two new units for zerg open up a lot more micro opportunities to a race that was considered to require the least micro. For example, positioning of swarm hosts is very important because you don't want locusts stuck behind roaches, and you can use blinding cloud and fungal together with some good unit movement to attack with hydras+roaches while the enemy can't attack back. The burrow charge might end up working a little differently in the expansion but the general idea of getting the ultralisks in an attacking position very quickly is making my choice between brood lords and ultralisks a very interesting one. Burrowed banelings seem a bit too powerful though. Mineral line without detection and static defence? Dead. Army without detection? Dead. I can't see this making it through beta haha. Not sure if this was mentioned but I may as well add it to this post: Ultralisk burrow charge has a bit of a graphical bug, after a fight there were what looked like some ultralisks frozen in the air haha. | ||

Replicant build time should be 30. Baneling burrow research should be 150/150 and take 90 seconds. Viper's blinding cloud should be 10 seconds. Got most of this information from This guy's videos. http://www.youtube.com/user/kentliu Also, I don't think units are supposed to auto agro against the entombed minerals. From the official video, it seemed that the workers just moved to the next nearest mineral patch. | ||

Also pylons blocking the zerg natural is just so hard to deal with now because of arc shield. | ||

I said that because the person 2 posts above me and another one a few posts before that from the EU was reporting that the game has missing character models. Did you just only read my post or something? And when I wrote that post it was not up for the EU so the posters before me were obviously not playing his version. | ||

- when a viper is grouped in with everything else it disables the attack command | ||

It's actually kinda cool/insane; both of the new zerg units really require a seperate hotkey/serious control. Lategame zerg micro could be really crazy - Broodlord/corruptor, lings/banes, infestors, swarm hosts & vipers - that's like 5 hotkeys (and bunching them together could cause serious mistakes, aside from maybe infestor/viper). As easy as it is to bitch at Browder and Blizz, it seems like they've learned a lot in terms of making the game complex/interesting. I get the feeling we won't be seeing another colossus or marauder by the time HoTS ships (despite how the warhound looks right now). Edit: Also banelings with burrow seem like an okay way to punish any lack of detection. It's almost like DT's in BW - no detection/not paying attention and you can just lose. The one thing that worries me is it'll likely be the death of baneling landmines lategame, as ravens will be mandatory (as well as spread turrets). | ||

 Also, some more bugs:- replicant can't copy ground units. I wasn't able to copy my probes. - Tempest: no splash vs air, it atacks only one target. Or it's too small? - Tempest: is air-to-ground weapon has so small range? Isn't it bigger? - Tempest should be more faster? - please delete this funny animation from Shredder and recolor blue aura to orange. That will be enought. - fix baneling atack in unburrowed mode. They don't have "Atack" button - burrowed banelings don't get speed bonuses on creep and from Centrifugal Hooks | ||
