Why do you want stacked rocks? You can increase hps with the editor.

Anything adding more choices is good, I'd like to see destructible bridges, you could make a choke, block all paths to go full air.


Because splash would hopefully affect stacked rocks, making them easy to take down once you have stuff that deals splash (effectively dealing x10 damage for 10 rocks) which works quite differently from giving a single rock huge HP.


There are only 4 units in sc2 with splash though and one of those is only splash to air and another has to commit suicide. So basically the only thing that would break stacked rocks would be siege tanks or colossi which is kinda dumb :\. You could also build a planetary fortress to break the rocks but that would be... well pretty awesome, but very stupid.

Edit: There are 5, hellions have splash, but they suck hard against armored targets :\.

Some units have bonus damage against buildings wich are armored and they do not splash, this isn't bw. I'd like to see workers given a huge bonus at destroying rocks (they gather minerals all day long), this would make back doors easier to defend and easier to destroy if you got control of the area.

Maybe they'll integrate Google Search Bar in the battle.net browser?

All it takes is 1 million $ from Google and we'd get it. No chat, clans, or ladder though.

I think the demotion/promotion is calculated after a certain number of games, and win/loss ratio determines whether you are promoted, denoted or if the league is unchanged.

Added some new changes to the list. I too also like the idea for Archons to "Pull units together." Going to add that to my dream list

General:
Buildings: No longer count as Armored, but rather given a new armor type: Structural Armored.

Protoss:

Forcefield: Forcefields now have 60 HP, but count as a neutral building. This means a player must force attack in order to destroy it.

Immortal: Damage changed from 20/+30 vs armored to 25/+15 vs armored. Damage upgrades changed from +2/+3 vs armored to +3/+1 vs armored.

Stalker: Blink moved to Cybernetics Core

Roach Warren:
Glial Reconstitution no longer requires Lair to research.

I dont think you realize how much having forcefields have that low hp would utterly ruin PvP... Warpgate all-ins would suddenly be near unstoppable, and every game would be sentry zealot vs sentry zealot, which tbh are the most retarded fights in the universe.

immortal change seems odd, i think with increased build time and increased neural parasite range they're fine PvZ, and were never really that big of a problem PvT, unless you go pure mech or something stupid.

Blink moved to cyber core would make robo tech waaaaay to good, and even more than previously we'd see pure robo tech with no templar tech from P's.

Why do roaches need speed before lair tech? Does anyone seriously think roaches are too bad early game? This change seems utterly bizzare to me.

Everything else you pointed out is a reasonable change, i like the idea of scrapping ultra speed and armour upgrade all together tbh and just making them spawn decently, they should be a big fuck off unit that is stupidly hard to kill, hive tech is relatively hard to reach in this game anyway.

so is a patch coming out or what cbf skimming through 24 pages last time i was on my sc2 didnt update whats taking so long been awhile since op posted til now

agree with ftrunkz as much as i like HD i gotta say some of those are pretty stupid lol (not saying im right just my opinion):
- FF is pretty much only thing keeping toss 'in the game' to say,
- blink to cybercore isnt needed, its fine where it is - id rather see dt's come out of temparchives to see more temp tech than robo/colossi
- marauder hp lower ehh i guess thats ok but id rather see stim removed because immortals are meant to counter marauders but with stim the shields go down so fast that investing in immortals is plain stupid - slow + crazy attk speed is kinda stupid, who needs air attack when you can pump marines for 50 mins anyway
- broodlords with energy for broodlings - i thought of this idea a while back as well but 25 energy is a bit too much thats only 10 attacks
- roach speed before lair tech wtf lol
no comment on the archon/corrupter dont really understand what thats meant to mean

Got demoted after winning 3 games in a row in 2v2 (was plat rank 20, into gold rank 94 (940 points @ win/loose rate of 13-9).
It is probably an effect of the "estimated ladder level" or whatsitscalled, not a bug I think.

they need to put back unit sizes small and medium and attack types, like explosive and concussive, that do different damage to each sizes. i think unit sizes and attack types made a big difference in sc1 which contributed to the balance of the game. right now all we have going for unit attributes are massive and armored. most units in early-mid game are all the same sizes (small). even most buildings look small too. not until late game will you able to see massive units like the ultralisk.

How can people still not understand that the damage/armor system is almost unchanged compared to BW, it's just the way of describing damage values that changed. Instead of damage penalties there are damage bonuses. I.e. "explosive" in SC1 is the same as +armored in SC2, "concussive" is the same as +light. If anything, SC2 system is more flexible because it allows to adjust individual units' bonuses, while in SC1 there is a fixed damage penalty for all units.

ye totally agree
sc1 system was based on dmg reduction while sc2 is based on dmg increase in a number rather than %, its more accurate and its easier to understand and balance. much better imo

A little bit of info to educate your guesses on when the patch will be: notes for 8+9 appeared at approx 1215 and 1125 Pacific US time on the Thursdays they came out

So it probably won't happen for another few hours. Remember that it's 0815 in Blizzardland right now

Making forcefields weaker will.. increase the strength of sentries?

i think you guys are forgetting the medium-sized units which take 75% damage. i dont know if that makes a huge difference but it can contribute to unit compositions. in sc1 an explosive unit like the hydralisk would do 75% to vultures and goons. only their atk speed helps them get more dps. vultures would be effective towards small units like 100% to lings, but useless to large units like 50% to tanks, but not completely useless because they do 75% to medium units like hydras.

The sc2 damage type system is more powerful than the sc damage type system. The sc system can be replicated in the sc2 system. It isn't though. As was just mentioned, sc had small/medium/large. SC2 only has light and armored.. also something that has led to more and more units getting 'normal' damage, like hydras, siege tanks, thors.. This does have some effect on the game, though I like the sc2 SYSTEM, I'm not sure if I like exactly how it is used..

yes but thats the exact same concept of the other dmg types, reduction in % lol

i wouldnt mind them using the extra dmg vs massive/biological/psyonic more tho, they r almost not used at all
