Select Larvae does NOT select eggs anymore ever ! overseers/banelings/broodlords no longer move to hatch's rally point when morphed either! <3 (cant cast spells on unit wireframes though, that's intended not a bug according to blizz) | ||

If it exploded, you will still have 3, a check needs to be done before respawning a new larva via the timer in the hatcher (Check to see if already 3 larva, if not, create new larva), this way when you cancel the larva u get a new egg, and hatchery has a check to see if you have 3, if not give one, if yes, dont give larva. | ||

or they could have made it to where larva spawns 1 or 2 seconds later. you have to cancel the egg/eggs like at the very last second to get the extra larva. | ||

The 10ling 6pool rush could still be done the same way. Play with drone construction so that at the time the pool is ready you have 2 drones hatching, then make 3 lings, cancel the drones, make 2 additional lings. | ||

Braking it allowed also to find other issues in the code which doesn't appear to the gamer but still have to be corrected. The real question is how this passed their internal test process before publishing. | ||

don't know what everyone is so worried about, the 9 pool 12 ling rush has been removed like half a day after coming in... they realized it would totally botch the game up, and when you're releasing updates frequently with experimental things like this - bad stuff often slips through. | ||

The problem isn't that canceling an egg gets you larva back; that alone is not abuseable. The problem is that doing so allows you to stockpile larva beyond what you would normally be able to that early in the game. Thus, you can build up 5-6 larva, rather than 2-3. Blizzard could easily have removed the abuseable part. Simply check the Hatchery when an egg is unmorphed; if the Hatch has less than 3 larva, then they get a larva back. If not, then no larva is returned. It allows a Zerg player to at least partially undo mistakes the way Terrans and Protoss can. | ||

Yep that's intentional. From Blizzard: "The fix to wireframe casting is intentional and will not be reverted in the foreseeable future. The designers really like the idea of having the player need to get back to their base and take care of these special abilities instead of being able to control them remotely while looking elsewhere. Hopefully, this will give the player a better feeling of actually managing their base, rather than just clicking pictures on your hotkey bar or selection frames.

I wish they'd extend it to overlords while they were at it. Or maybe send the overlords to the worker rally. I don't think anyone wants their overlords to rally to the same place as their combat units. | ||

Any help would be appreciated as I recently pre ordered the CE and received my beta key and really want to play. I experienced it when I installed patch 9, but after closing out the patcher and starting up SC2 again from the desktop icon it worked fine | ||

For instance if you attack with a pop capped army and still macro larvae at a couple bases, you can recover very quickly after/during the attack with 10+ larva morphing immediately. also.. increase psi limit? seriously? | ||

I see what you mean I actually though about it on my way to work I wrote that still in bed, but along the lines that I was thinking is that it would get people from bitching about zerling rushes if the player is forced to build more Overlords early. Also this helps in smaller maps when your opponant or opponants are chronoing in proxy zealots. You would be able to at least build enough forces to do some surrounds. But toss with a warpgate bam bam bam you have 3 zealots in a few seconds. You can't tell me that isn't huge. I've seen this save Orbs ass a ton of times or at least keep his push going. Either way I still hate the Queen. | ||

If not, then no larva is returned. It allows a Zerg player to at least partially undo mistakes the way Terrans and Protoss can. Did you even read the link? Being able to cancel back to larva gives zerg a ridiculous amount of production flexibility. It has nothing to do with being able to stockpile larvae, because so long as you never go over 3 larvae, you lose no production time in the long run by canceling drones and turning them into units, not to even mention the fact that starting units off saved larvae before cancelling old eggs still lets you cheat any limit you put on larva count. As the article suggests, this could be abused in such a way that makes larva management trivial--always build drones, and cancel for units when needed. As far as "undoing mistakes", the pre-patch 9 way of doing things is actually closer to parity than being able to get larvae back. Here's an example with the patch 9 setup: A zerg player builds 5 hydralisks in X amount of time. If he started 2 mutalisks, then decided he needed hydras, he could cancel and still get 5 hydralisks in X time, so long as he never let 3 larvae sit at any one hatchery. Even if he did have 3 larvae, he could start those on units first before canceling the hydralisks, in order to "cheat" the larva limit. A Terran player builds 5 marauders in X amount of time. If he started 2 marines, canceling them would forever lose that production time. It is now impossible to get the marauders in that same amount of time. | ||
