It's really gay Go watch BR2, you can see how good the graphics were there for blings explosions. and the death animations of things killed by them is really good. Also when blings morph, it's clear that they are not completed yet, as it is currently, the morphing blings just look like browner blings that can't move, I get confused all the time by them. | ||

I don't have a problem with the high quality textures etc on high my issue is that everything is reflecting light and it is distracting. On low the units are brighter and the map and random stuff is contrasting to that but on high everything has a fucking spotlight. So, does anyone know if it is a bug that important things like scanner or nuke dot don't show on low? And if blizzard has already been made aware of this. Because clearly this is something they would want to fix. | ||

Could you write down or post a screenshot of your graphics settings menu so I could see exactly what you got set to what? Cause those effects are probably linked to one specific setting and believe me I've tried to narrow down to which one and I can't make it work on anything but shaders/light/shadows on low. | ||

I know people always say Gameplay > Graphics, but a good looking game adds to the fun. I have to agree. I'd really rather play a game that looks decent haha. Another question is.... do we play health bars auto displayed. | ||

Personally I run it on Medium because my computer can't handle High or Ultra, and it looks fine, both aesthetically and functionally (to me at least). | ||

At first I didn't because I didn't know you could have it turned on, so then I turned it on and it was fine but as soon as games progressed to midgame or later I just for the life of me couldn't manage my armies well enough because the bars just clutter up everything and its impossible to see individual units inside a huge ball. So then I switched it over back to off again and I just use the alt key to show it. I am going to experiment having it on during the early game and then just turn it off during the actual game as soon as units start to reach critical mass. If I can do that without it messing up my gameplay. | ||

It's really gay As far as a battle computation, I believe there is a setting for animations. On higher settings the units make this pretty death animation, unfortunately it takes a split second for you to notice the unit is actually dead. The benefit, though, is a very visible corpse. On lower settings, the unit instantly explodes into a puff of blood with no trace. Banelings/queens disappear, etc. So even though on lower settings, things contrast well, easy to see units, etc, there are many things missing from it that need to be tweaked up for optimal competitive gaming. Low, medium, high, or ultra are not "one sized fits all" settings by any means. Each needs to be tweaked. It's just a matter of mixing and matching settings like those to give the perfect fit for you, the gamer, while still maintaining enjoyability as well as function. The "darker(enhanced) textures" thread helps greatly in this respect. Ultimately if you're too lazy, I think just setting it to medium and turning down textures/models would be the best way to go competitive-wise. | ||

Is this normal? I have a Geforce 260 and an intel c2d e6750 with 2gb ram. | ||

I play with the hp bars on so its even harder to see units under them on high graphics settings. | ||

I just set everything to Low and it only gave me 80ish. Is this normal? I have a Geforce 260 and an intel c2d e6750 with 2gb ram. With your specs, yeah that is pretty normal.
