I hope this actually isn't a bug but a intentional change. The more APM you have the greater the reward should be.

Besides Z having to spend 25 energy ONE TIME to cover the entire map in Creep. I still gotta say I don't like that mechanic.

I was doing fine with hotkeying my hatcheries to 5 and queens to 4. Never used the wireframe to spawn larvae.

Actually, come to think of it, it wouldn't be a terrible idea to limit the CC to 1 mule per OC at a time. That way you have to be paying attention to your macro. If you screw up and lose mule mining time, you at least have comsat scans that you can use instead (or supply drops).

It also helps deal with some of those late game issues where a T takes a new base and can instantly call down 8 mules to it to mine out a good portion of it in 90 seconds (not sure if this will prove to be a long term balance issue or not, but it's something to note).

Damn! I am so used to the spawn larva thing.. It would be equivelent if terrans could only select one CC at a time imo. But I will manage, SC style zerg hotkeys here I come!

Do I need to point out that "casual" players tend to not be in the beta. So.

1. Casuals won't know it was ever there.
2. By the time sc2 hits stores I think they will have it figured out, considering that if blizz wants money, they have to make the game accessible to a large group of gamers.

See I never played Warcraft 3, and was playing SC2 much like SC1... The few things I learned thus far from the my WC3 friends have proved mighty useful, however I still didn't know that you could cast via the icons and was going back to my base anyways.

I don't feel this is such a big change to warrant an outbreak, it adds a minute level of difficulty to using your races "unique" abilities.

Thanks


Dont worry im going to continue talking about how the macro mechanics, particularly Spawn Larva, can be improved. The current system is not Blizzard quality. The Teamliquid community was instrumental in establishing what macro should look like and were going to see it through to the end.




I just dont want to get myself banned which i why i wanna step gently and not start fights that end with someone severing me from the community.

I guess this means I won't meet any more Protoss players with 30 APM on platinum anymore.

Are you kidding me?

Look at the massive number of copper/bronze/low silver players and all the people who got beta through WoW and tell me that "casual players tend to not be in beta"

There are a lot more changes than what were mentioned in the op and in the patch notes. For one void ray damage subtly changed. I don't remember how but it was something like +1 or -1 damage for each of the stages. Also the time to charge up was somehow changed (shortened I think).

Another one that I plan to check on the moment my patch finishes downloading is I think you can now cancel an egg without losing the larvae. That's gigantic. I don't know how many games I've lost where I had 2 inject larvaes come to fruition, turn out 8 drones and then immediately the protoss moves out that instant. Now I can just cancel and get 16 zerglings, no sweat.

its not like you could play perfect anyway... more apm was already rewarded. by your argument they should remove auto-mining as well.

Removing wireframe targeting is retarded. It's basically like all those people who complained mindlessly about MBS ruining the game. It's just a needless change that focuses on adding mundane control to the game. In a game with smartcasting and improved AI and all this jazz, this is just a step in the wrong direction.

But of course a bunch of Terran icons in this thread are lauding this change. Anything for an advantage, eh?

They all got it already?

The immortal is less than optimal vs roaches, which is what it was supposed to counter to begin with.

So if you had all your queens on one kotkey like that.. What's the best way to center the screen on each one? Just click the picture of each one and tab through?
