Wow. Very nice. I got fed up with trying to get the cliffs right over the stupid height thing the conversion did and gave up on HBR. :S

If people in the community had kept more cool heads, then perhaps it wouldn't have turned out the way it did. yeah. it's good for them to be getting feedback, but a lot of what i read on this board sounds super amatuer tbh. as design suggestions, i mean. they're mostly really short term fixes to problems people are having individually RIGHT NOW and really have no bearing on how the game is designed. i don't even see people taking advantage of control groups in the livestreams right now. at all. sc1 is super refined because of the years of headaches that went into figuring it out, not to mention patches and a very important expansion. if everyone gets their pet nerf/buff granted, the game is gonna end up far stupider and easier than it appears to be right. | ||

They give out beta keys to get feedback, realizing full well they'll have to sift through a lot of feedback that is bad. It's up to them to find the needles of constructive criticism in the haystack of "WTF NO XXX BUFF?!1 STUPID!" Bashing does not equal constructive criticism, plus giving feedback on a patch in which we haven't tested yet defeats any sensible argument. Kids are so hasty these days to throw around stupid conjecture, because this is the internet and I am allowed to be retarded (anonymity) . This is no excuse, and why should blizzard suffer? Have you been to the starcraft 2 b.net forums? They are disgusting. These forums are the only ones I participate in, because TL.net moderators do their job and limit the amount of crap spread around. I see actual intelligent debate here and that is the reason that brings me back time and time again. I mostly lurk where ever I go, because trying to converse with immature kids is self-defeating. | ||

Come on, if you were designing such a sweeping overhaul, you wouldn't even be done PLANNING the units, abilities, and their costs. On top of that, you also need to create new art assets, implement everything in the engine, and test thoroughly. Hell, in-house testing alone would probably be a month. The fact that Blizzard has not fixed fundamental problems with the game does not indicate in any way that they aren't attempting to do so. It doesn't indicate that they are either, but the point is, you can't make any statements about what Blizzard plans to do, because we wouldn't see any results from it for another 2-3 months anyway. The good news is that if there's anything that Blizzard has a track record of doing, it's pushing back release dates to fix fundamental problems with a game. However, the fact that it hasn't been done, coupled with the fact that the release date isn't getting any farther away, doesn't bode well for the kind of massive changes you're talking about. Furthermore, Blizzard has not said that they are changing any of these things. So I don't see how you're reasonably expecting any changes along these lines. | ||

I enjoy 1v1, its why I played original Starcraft and it is what will keep me on Starcraft 2, it sucks though that I am going to have to relearn alot of hotkeys because people play with friends with crap internet. That change had no warrant. Protoss already had the advantage of not having to bind their warpgates and now my spawn larvae is on the other side of the keyboard making it more difficult to use as fast. Much more finger travel time. I hardly see how this is a good change. I dont plan on every playing protoss at the same time that I am playing Zerg. The "Neural Parasite a probe" strategy only works if you are TheLittleOne. | ||

Yes, I saw what you did there, and your analogy sucks. A maxed out terran mech army is stronger than a maxed out protoss army or a maxed out zerg army in SC1. Why? Because of the AoE. To compensate for this, Terran tends to have fewer bases, thus lower income, and less capacity to replenish its army quickly. In SC2, this doesn't happen. So, yeah. Your analogy sucks. The problem of Terran mech scaling too well due to AoE is the same as it was in BW, but the way it's balanced in SC2 is different. | ||

You get enough of these, and units with regular attacks like zealots, immortals, roaches, hydras, etc. become useless against the terran ball of doom. To compensate for the superior scaling of terran mech (the more units there are on both sides, the stronger the terran mech army becomes compared to the other army), mech is way immobile. Tone down the scaling of terran mech (less splash damage), and make it less immobile. Sure, I'd go for that. | ||

i think it would be a fair trade to give thors more speed for less dmg :p i dont think its a fair trade to make siege tanks faster and lower their aoe. i mean even if u make them faster they r still gonna be immobile as holy hell and must be sieged before battle and thats not worth it in any situation xd. | ||
