Impactful Changes in HotS?

I have been playing the beta a lot lately and noticed I cannot see the opponents upgrades or what building is being built/warped in/morphed in when clicked on it anymore.

I believe this is going to have a huge impact in the pro scene as scouting, while Terran buildings are a lot easier to recognize when being built, is a lot tougher to some degree, but not entirely impactful as deductive logic and a pro's brilliance would probably know what it is. The upgrades on the other hand might be. Waiting for upgrades to finish is a huge tell when to launch an attack no? What do you guys think?

I'm hoping this isn't a bug only on mine either as I couldn't find anything in the forum that mentioned this or I just missed it.

Edit: Spelling correction

I played beta for a while before noticing this option. So annoying that they would default it in that way!

Yeah, I streamed for like 2 days before one of my viewers mentioned that it was an option to me. I was raging pretty hard. >.>

IIRC, it started out as a default on, they switched it to default off, and now they've switched to it back to default on.

I sincerely hope they switch it back.

The first time when you start HotS, there is a window which says : "There are new options : enable select enemies units..." and all is detailed.

If only ppl read messages... Only click click click, and complain after that.

What is the point of making it in option? Seems silly to me, but thank all for pointing that had.

I think its one of those 'supernoob' features they are putting into HOTS so that new players will not click on enemy buildings and think that they are theirs in mirror matches and such.

It's for people who are bad and when trying to micro their units, click on the enemy's units and mess up.
