Agreed, people seem to have forgotten about those or something. Rocks aren't new to starcraft ;O
not sure if i would prefer them to be rocks instead of temples/etc. tho, haven't thought about it. with sc2 graphics it could be cooler with neutral buildings (then they'd have no excuse to not have neutral depots for ramps :D)

@lorch ouch i never really played bw multiplayer and never watch tournaments but thx for the answer, never noticed that!
but still if blizzard (and they do) cares so much about the asthetical aspects of the game they shouldn't just bash up lore-wise enemy buildings into ones base

Right... but not sure if people have forgotten that a majority of the placement of destructible objects in BW had some meaning to them. Along with things like minerals that could be mined out, hidden 3rd bases through invisible eggs, glitching units over destructible temples for DT rushes or backdoor cannon rushes. All of the sort had MEANINGFUL placements. Even if it was strictly for balancing racial issues on a certain map almost always was there a "point" to having it. The reason people really hate rocks is because in SC2 they're placed at ur 3rd base, or in the way of it, when ur getting ready to take it anyway. So you just kill them and then you're done with them. There isn't anything meaningful to them.
On the other hand, collapsable rocks seem to be providing more of what we're talking about with BW - something that changes how the game is actually played, and in a strategic way rather than "stupid" one.
That said, I'm pretty QQ that this patch still isn't up. T_T At least I got my subway and brownie to eat while I wait for the 4PM EST announcement... hope it's a good one.. ;~;

Was just going to post it... We're $%^&ed. Maybe they will write something more useful in 2-3 hours then. This might be a preview of someone trying to get more useful information: Community Manager: What is wrong, we want to tell people what is going on? Programmer: I don’t know what is broken. If I knew, I would fix it. They will get to know when I know. Community Manager: Well everyone is trying to connect and we want to give them an ETA. Programmer: Yeah, they should stop doing that, it isn’t helping. Community Manager: Well people have been looking forward to these changes and they are kind of unhappy it isn’t working. Programmer: You told them it was a free beta right? The kind when they don’t pay for anything. Community Manager: Well yeah, but still, we need something. Programmer: Look, it’s a massive UI overhaul with an improved back end, updated in game physics, new data collection and profile system. I am happy it even installed. Tell them we are looking into it. Just a theory, but that is kind of what it is like when stuff breaks in my office.
They just delayed it to 1 pm PDT

Haha, calm down, everyone. Do something else. Watch some porn. As for me, just logged in before starting work to say, I enjoyed your two recent posts on this, Plansix. They gave me a good chuckle at 8 in the am.
Be well, chaps.

Time to take a 1 hour shower then.

I kept thinking of float variables and it made no sense.
