Can someone in the HoTS beta, PLEASE bump the thread over at the Blizzard forums? I get a strange suspicion that Blizzard think that because they acknowledged the existence of the thread they "got rid of the problem"

Anyone?

For everyone who is begging to let Blizz know, they've already seen it.

Rock:
We have seen the video. We are very focused on Heart of the Swarm units right now and we don't know what the Carrier will be doing in the beta with all of the new units available on the Stargate. Will it see more use? Less use? We aren't going to make any changes immediately but we will certainly discuss it. Thank you for the post and thanks to the maker of the video.

Why did they have there armor dropped from 4 to 2?

Why do they have 5 extra health and the +1 range standardly included (compared to bw)?


TBH I think the carrier could stand to lose some HP/Shields if it really did get its original micro.. otherwise NOTHING could ever kill them... especially on maps with chunks of dead space.

Thank god. If the carrier is fixed, that'll be one fewer unused unit.

Are you kidding me... Its not even going to make the carrier viable, it just adds more micro depth to it (something which sc2 desperately needs). Mech Terran or Disruption Web is needed to make the carrier viable.

Thread deceased, Blizzard got away with this one due to lack of campaigning.

Nony said on his stream just now when I asked that apparently they responded and said they liked the changes, but right now they're focusing on the hots units. To me it sounds like they could eventually change, but they won't be changing initially.


From page 31


We're seeing some community discussion on units that we shipped with Wings of Liberty. Examples include:

- Carrier
-Thor
-Void Ray
-Ghost

While we are very willing to change these units down the road we are not focused on them for the next few weeks. We are very interested in what kind of strategies we are introducing with the new beta units as well as what types of balance problems we are creating.

Obviously you can post on any subject you like and if you want to talk about older units feel free. We will definitely read your posts on older units. But we probably won't make balance or design changes of any significance to older units anytime soon. Once we stabilize the balance on the new beta units we will take a look to see what changes make sense to older units.


-Dustin Browder


Currently not as worried about Carrier as much as the new HotS units, but extra special thanks to Nony's video, we're thinking on 2 possibilities in the future:

leashing thing
Interceptor launching thing

But let's try to focus on HotS if we can. -Dayvie, from the pro forum (I think we're aloud to post this stuff?)

As I said, they are just defusing the community angst, to be ignored.

I hope Blizzard's design team just put stop trying to design and just read teamliquid threads such as this one and implement these ideas.. :D

never understood why carrier micro was removed. I hate protoss, but seriously think the carrier is infinitely more interesting than the tempest.
