watch the tvz battle report on yoütube it was on howling peak and skip to the end or so, where tons of tanks are killing hydras. dats it btw the nuke animation is the same but now mechanical parts fly off the screen when a nuke hits hellions for example. so the dynamic and logic is not contradicting, as in previous patches the exploding parts flew away like they wanted to, not from the center of the nuke explosion. basically it should be harder for the cpu to make all this in realtime, counting in which direction the debris should fly etc, but still it hasn't such an effect on the fps. | ||

That said, venues will still need internet to stream the games, so streams could still be affected by internet issues. If blizzard releases the b.net server then we will have a lot of pirate b.net servers. This would possibly be worse then if they release LAN. With lan you need to have something like Hamachi to play over internet and it is often some connection issues. If there where pirate b.net servers you would just need to change a ip adress in the game and it would work like the real one. | ||

I doubt it's significantly more work for the CPU, to be honest. Before, the rag-doll pieces inherited their velocity from the last frames of the death animation. Now they can also get impulse from an explosion or other impact. | ||

The game timer has moved. This could be annoying. Also I don't think the idle worker notification will be as obvious, atleast at first. | ||

Added a Select Army Units button next to the Idle Worker button. Did everyone else seriously miss this? Is 1a too hard for people these days? Lol So overall this patch makes the game worse. GG blizzard | ||
