what...? no one knew about this..?
whenever i heard 'upgrade complete' or 'research complete' i'd hit space, go back and research +2 or stasis or something. or else i'd forget later.

spacebar takes you to the most recent event that happened. like if you heard "our forces are under attack" and you hit spacebar it brings you to the place that your forces are under attack>

I think TLO is the first one who used nukes(a lot of it) in a serious, tourney match. Literally it was raining nukes in that game, scary...He even used it defensively

someone recently told me that if you hit spacebar after a nuke is launched it centers over the red dot...
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

Yes, and it will be the death of SC2 as an e-Sport.

Seriously? We don't see nukes nearly enough anyway and when they are fired it's usually peon lines or armies, so checking there for a few seconds hardly takes any effort at all. So why make it even easier with hitting spacebar.
Hell, one nuke can't even kill a colossus. :<

If the space bar highlight is true on Nukes, it's a glitch that WILL be taken down.

Well, it's true on nukes... How do you know that it WILL be resolved?

I have a question

If you put the Crosshair for the Nuke on top of a building, such as a Nexus, can the opponent see the dot under the building?

Well, apparently it wasn't taken out of BW, so maybe it won't be taken out of SC2 either.

I think The Little One still showed how nukes can be effective, even if the enemy knows where they are. Such as in his game, where he put a nuke behind his army while he was attacking an expansion. So the enemy army couldn't engage his without being completely nuked, and when he destroyed the expansion he just cancelled the nuke.

The last message, for example when you are under attack as well. Makes navigating the map so much easier! When you hear "Our base is under attack" instant spacebar and you are there!

And as said many times, spacebar centers on the nuke in broodwar as well. Nothing new.

I don't see why Blizzard would make a tiny little dot barely unidentifiable if you can reach it simply by pressing on space-bar.

He also tried to nuke the protoss army a few times out in the open, which is silly when they can just spacebar and know where it is. (his opponent always moved his army asap, so maybe he knew about this) Nukes are very nice but I really hope they remove this spacebar thing to introduce more skill.

Also in starcraft I remember reading tips to "nuke under overlords" so your opponent cant see the dot and we could spacebar it all along, wtf? But anyway, I guess if you really want to cause mayhem you need to chain 2 or 3 nukes so they can only catch the last spot. ^^
