Great, make Terran more powerful and continue to nerf Protoss. Great job blizzard making this game completely unplayable unless you have a(T) next to your name.

All this patch business is well and nice, but I was hoping that the Mac client is gonna come along with it... Any word on when that will be comming? (it sure is annoying to change the OS just to play the beta)

why u even get mac in the first place?
to me it would seem more logical if everyone threw their macs in the garbage rather than forcing every single game to run on mac :<

They didn't mention the change (fix) to planetary fortress and HSM though, despite that they were fixed. I assume Blizzard are too embarressed to mentioned it.

Otherwise almost 50% less damage for HSM would be something people want to know about.



What change?

Planetary Fortress damage was fixed, it now does 100% splash instead of 150%

+ Show Spoiler +
<AreaArray Radius="0.5" Fraction="1"/>
<AreaArray Radius="0.8" Fraction="0.75"/>
<AreaArray Radius="1.25" Fraction="0.375"/>


Hunter Seeker missile was also fixed. Archon splash remains the same though unfortunately.

+ Show Spoiler +
<CEffectDamage id="HunterSeekerDamage">
<EditorCategories value="Race:Terran"/>
<Amount value="100"/>
<ResponseFlags index="Acquire" value="1"/>
<ResponseFlags index="Flee" value="1"/>
<Flags index="Notification" value="1"/>
<AreaArray Radius="0.6" Fraction="1"/>
<AreaArray Radius="1.2" Fraction="0.5"/>
<AreaArray Radius="2.4" Fraction="0.25"/>


In effect, HSM went from this:

<AreaArray Radius="1.6" Fraction="1" />
<AreaArray Radius="2.4" Fraction="0.25" />

To this:

<AreaArray Radius="0.6" Fraction="1"/>
<AreaArray Radius="1.2" Fraction="0.5"/>
<AreaArray Radius="2.4" Fraction="0.25"/>

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 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.


Right. The "HSM is too overpowered even for 125" argument that some made was nullified after the bug fix (which was a nerf). I even feel that they balanced it to be 125 due to the bug. I see no room for misinterpretation of the facts: if Psi Storm can cost 75 then "fixed" HSM can cost 100.

No but seriously, they just missed the "Twilight fortress removed from 2v2", right?

Right?


The point of beta-testing maps isn't for you go have a lot of fun on maps you think are totally cool and great. If Twilight Fortress needs more testing, it's going to stay. LT obviously doesn't since that's all people have been playing pretty much.
Bring back 2v2s!

Agreed; people are finally realize PD Drone is as close to dark swarm as you will get in this game.

wat

Try engaging colossi with mech.

Siege tanks are big, need a spotter, take a long time to siege and die fairly quickly.

Sure, if you are sieged up and waiting for him to attack you, colossi don't do that great, but otherwise? They are scary.

Add to this that they can EASILY waltz into your main, kill half your stuff and then walk out before your slow ass siege tanks get back.

EDIT: And I forgot to add: Thors cannot catch colossi. Range 9 means the thor will almost never get to even hit them :/

This is a gigantic patch, and there are so many updates, that it would be difficult to discuss them all in text, due to tl;dr. I don't really care a whole lot about the general changes, though the addition of achievements in the beta might be a bit cool. I'm glad they reduced the concussive shells...It was a real pain to research it. Additionally, I think the immortal's build time increase is long overdue. As for the new maps, i'm stoked about them. I was really hoping that we would get to play some 2v2 maps that aren't twilight fortress.
