Think about this for a moment...is the game now actually worse than when the beta first came out. Seriously, do you honestly think that these patches are going in the wrong direction? Lets at least see how this one plays out. It seems like the gameplay changes in this one aren't nearly as drastic as many previous patches anyway. | ||

My guess is that the endless loop will go away once the game can make a connection to bnet and determine that it is up to date. | ||

If you still have your heart set on an immortal rush vs Terran, you'll still be chronoboosting which only makes it a 7 second increase. The marauder buff isn't all that big of a deal, they have always been a pretty ridiculous unit in terms of cost-effectiveness and ground-ownage. Nope, it's not 7 seconds and I wonder how did you even calculate such an amount, because even if you had infinite chrono boosts it would still be a 10 second increase, since the chrono boost increases build speed by 50%, i.e. it reduces build time by 1/3. You also ain't getting any extra chrono boosts, the nexus energy regen does not change based on how slow your immortals build, you would use more boosts per immortal, but only because you will be producing a smaller amount of immortals in the same amount of time. The ratio will be 11 pre-patch to 8 after the patch(or 55 to 40), the ratio remains the same if in both cases they were getting constant chrono boosts or they both weren't. | ||

1) Map changes - So they took out your favorite ones and left the crappy ones in. Did it occur to you that they took out the ones that you liked because they're basically finished? This is beta, they're going to fix the maps that people hate, not the ones that people already like. 2) Hotkey changes - You can change them yourself. Anyone whining about this is being lazy. 3) Balance issues - This is hilarious. Liquid'Drone writes an article about how none of us are in any position to have the perspective necessary to evaluate balance. Everyone in the comments agrees with him. Two days later, we have a new patch, and everyone is nerdraging over minute changes without having even played the patch yet. 4) Zerg staleness/Unholy trifecta - Blizzard obviously acknowledges these are problems. But really? Beta has only been going on for 2 months, and these problems only really came into the spotlight last month. As a project, completely revamping Zerg could take up to 6 months to design/implement/in-house test. Do you really expect Blizzard to put off patching the current Beta builds until there's a better version of the Zerg race? | ||

This isn't about playing maps you think are totally cool and rad and awesome. Your preferences don't count for anything here. You're a beta tester, and that means playing on this map, whether you like it or not, for the purposes of testing it and gathering data. The beta is NOT in place for you to have fun. | ||

Obviously you have no idea how good DT's are against T...especially since every PvT pre-patch 9 has been concentrated on robo heavy units. Fast DT into expo is a very viable tactic that will either catch the T with his pants down or give you a huge window of safety for you to tech and expand. | ||
