The patch says it was sucessful but then it keeps trying to redownload it (which finishes instantly because it's already downloaded) and it keeps going in that loop.

Ok, why the FUCK do Infestors need MORE range on stealing the biggest fucking opposing unit there is, and why do we get even less of a chance to fucking split our troops on a fungal growth that KO's marines. what the fuck are they thinking?

In effect, HSM went from this:




To this:





Which is quite a change in its splash. Before it did 100% splash in a 1.6 radius, now it does 100% splash in a 0.6 radius.

Couldn't they at least have made it cost 100 energy or something then? It's not very good as it is... I mean, it's not BAD but the PDDrone is waaaaaay better.


I don't know. Making it cost 100 energy would be making it even easier to completely destroy all the probes on a saturated line. I would only need one full-energy raven instead of two.

As opposed to psi-storm which costs 75 mana?

You almost never get HSM vs P anyway - feedback is way too good vs casters for me to want to make them.

It's less about your feedback and more about having some mice to run through the maze they made. Unless you really think your complain posts matter that much to blizzard. If they did, you'd see lurkers back in the game, roaches and marauders would be nerfed into oblivion, forcefield would have an HP bar, and infestors would cast Dark Swarm instead of infested terran.

Ask yourself if the your "feedback" is really all that valued. Then go back to running the maze, you mouse.


Well, then, I hope you're not posting any feedback because according to you, it's pointless. And no, I'm not naive just saying that having a voice to be heard is still vital to the improvement of the game.


Only feedback I've posted is "Thanks Blizzard. Keep up the good work! :D", because even Blizzard could use some encouragement.

And it really depends on what your voice is saying. If your voice is saying "Turn StarCraft 2 into StarCraft 1.1!", then no, your voice isn't vital to be heard. If your voice is saying "WAHH WAHH ROACHES MARAUDERS IMMORTALS WAHH WAHH", then your voice is equally useless to the improvement of the game.


Did I say that? All I said was that I disagreed with you saying that Blizzard knows better than we do.


You're still equally wrong. They're a successful game developer who's acknowleged to be the one of the industry leaders. They have an army of playtesters and statisticians and designers and the collective sum of the data gathered throughout the beta period. And you're an silver-ranked beta-investigation hero with a keyboard. Trust me, they know better than you.

No, I think force field has to be MOSTLY the same.

What about making its range less? That's what bothers me most - all my units are too slow to escape from force field unless they have stim.

I don't like that you can permanently keep someone locked in their base either but I have no idea how to solve this - not allowing force field on ramp seems too drastic, and giving it a HP seems to defeat the purpose.

Templar don't fly on the own though. Getting a warp prism with gas-heavy cargo in it shot down is real expensive. Losing a Raven is still expensive, but less so.

can't wait to get home so i can try the new maps... too bad most are 2v2 maps

Would have liked to see something changed w/ forcefield. I really hate the mechanic a lot. Need to give it a hp bar or something.

I share your opinion there. HSM was rarely used as it is, despite doing that insane splash. Now with the average splash, I doubt it will be used at all. The energy cost is simply too high.
This road isn't leading anywhere...
