They're working on new ways to make money off of stupid people. Maybe a real money auction house for SC2? Not sure how that would work, but I'm sure Blizz are doing their best to figure it out.

Gogo Carrier!! Seems like decent changes imo, Tempest range, Warhound, and the Oracle.

I can see the ads.

I really want to get into this beta, I got lucky and was in the first wave of invites for WoL no just luck this time around T_T hopefully more and more invites start coming.
|
Great patch!
HoTS is going to be a much better game! Yay!
|
Maybe not the right thread, but when are they going to bring back protoss upgrade costs to the same price as zerg and terran? Surely it must have been intended to spur protoss to use forge and upgrade builds more, and it has worked. However, their is no rational reason for protoss to have cheaper upgrades conisdering they can already have fastest upgrades (chrono) and their upgrades cover gateway/robo/arcon.
|
I guess protoss race strikes back now no switch to teran Tempest , Carrier, Mothership army so strong air .

I just had to make an account to ask a question that has been bugging me lately. Since i dont have HotS beta key i cant experiment with the new awesome units. The thing i want to know is; can you combine locust&nydus worm? As in put a nydus in your base and one in his base, poop your locusts in the worm and straight out in his base? I tried to research this (like details about locust, can they go far from swarm host without dying after a certain range.) Also, can you drop locust with ventural sacks? These are the 2 main questions that have bugged me. Thanks to anyone who finds the time to experiment and/or answer

I wasn't trolling or whining about balance at all, just wondering why they were fiddling around with most of terran's under used units and not protosses. Perhaps you could voice your opinion on the matter instead of adding nothing to the discussion.

The reaper is my favorite change. It will be huge in regards to kiting zerglings and huge in TvT where you can now know safely exactly where you can go.

Are you JOKING? The Oracle and Tempest just got massive changes to make them more viable (and fun).
How can you say they aren't tweaking Protoss? Hell, instead of playing around with the Warhound they just outright removed it. If that isn't boning Terran exploration I don't know what is.
It sounds like you didn't even bother to read the patch notes and won't be satisfied until the Carrier gets an extreme buff or rework.

It sounds like you didn't even bother to read the patch notes and won't be satisfied until the Carrier gets an extreme buff or rework. I'm talking about EXISTING units. Notice how I brought up BCs, reapers, battlecruisers, tanks? Hell blizzard are even trying to help zergs existing units with hydra speed and ultra charge. Don't see why you cant take your rage hats off for a second and read what I'm saying.
And I honestly don't know how anyone will be happy if carrier doesn't get rework... One of the most underused units in the game; I guess its pretty neat what they did; they take it out and when they replace it everyone is so happy that it gets brought back in they completely forget they wanted it buffed in the first place.
Also they are taking out the Warhound so they can work on it in-house before they bring it back in. Pretty sure Browder said explicitly that.

Why bother arguing your point when you can just say things like 'please tell me that was sarcasm' and 'he definitely has his blinders on'
Edit: I even explicitly said 'existing' units, guess you missed that too when you started going on about tempest and oracle. Was simply wondering why Blizzard hasn't touched any of the existing toss units when they have for terran and zerg, no need for everyone to get all antsy about it.

I wonder if they've considered replacing the warhound with that hover bike that was taken out of the WoL. I realy liked that thing.
