You're right, every single person that thought that Terran mech was stronger than their options, and hence a little too strong was "some noob."

Do people understand the point of nerfing/buffing? It's not <i>just</i> to get rid of strategies that are too strong in every single MU. It is just as important to balance the race internally - Blizzard has to <b>balance various strategies that a race might consider, and make them on a similar viability level.</b> If Terrans only go mech in every single MU (not saying that's happening), then even if the strategy is not "too strong" they still need to change it so that going bio won't put anyone at a huge disadvantage. This kind of internal balance is hard - they have to make more than one strat viable without messing up the TvX MU.

Yeah its a good point but going Bio Vs a Zerg who isn't retarded is a death wish sadly lol.

Try to keep the changes in perspective; the hellion and thor changes really aren't that significant; they wont affect the gameplay at all until you get upgrades, and even then they'll only deal 1 damage less per upgrade against light units (for a maximum of 3 less damage overall), while still doing the exact same amount to non-light units.
Just a momentary diversion on the road to the grave

Yeah just a bunch of noobs complained, it wasn't a list of good players or anything ..oh wait...


When it comes to Zerg it doesn't matter because the entire Zerg playerbase is as whiny as a bunch of children. They've whined since day 1 of the beta about EVERYTHING.

What is it that attracts these people to Zerg?

Lowering tank damage by 1/6? Seems excessive. Zerg players just didnt have enough time to come up with mainstream strategies to beat mech. I lost ALL THE TIME in TvZ to things like nydus worms, tunneling roaches, losing thors in a battle and zerg switches to muta, corrupter/broodlord, getting my army caught out of position, etc... but of course the race that started totally imba ends up getting what they want because their opinions of their own skill are inflated. And nerfing factory upgrades? wtf? I just don't get it.

And to top it all off, blizzard slaps terrans in the face by making up for massive nerfs with a decrease in cost of a useless upgrade. grrrr. They should make an upgrade that requires armory or something that makes reapers not completely useless after 5 minutes into the game.

And how is this a bad thing?
You mean you have to change your build according to the race your playing?
Gosh.
Racial differences?
Gee.

I don't get the bitching here or the defending of the idea.

There is about 4 threads whining about Mech at all times.

This is the first patch out of 15 patches that is pretty bad on blizzard's part. They gave in to bnet forum whining + some whining here instead of waiting to see what developed.

Same thing happened with the command and conquer community, players whined horribly for things that really were not imbalanced and EA gave it to them, and look where cnc ended up

sighs.

LOL, that's because it's the first patch out of 15 where Terran has been nerfed. Cry more plz.

50/50 cost upgrades are pretty stupid for a strong ability like nitro packs.
tank nerf seems good.
not sure what effect hellion / broodlord upgrade changes wil do.

Just because other people do something never justifies you to do the same. Be the bigger man/woman. The way to solve "zerg whining about everything in the world" isn't to whine, nor is it to bait people with your posts.

Its not just about TvZ....TvT is also one dimensional because tanks eliminate any other possible ground unit, including "tank" units like Rauders and Thors. When a unit makes a match so "obvious", that unit is probably a little OP.

That being said, this change isn't significant enough to change anything really, because tanks still splash such a huge portion of most units HP.

those thread were filled with people disagreeing and TLO as the only T/Z player saying its fine.


wat?

really i think blizz really did something way too fast (2-3 weeks give players a chance to adapt! ohwait...") but watheveer. let them do the qq related "balance". they did in for all races and now its apparently Ts turn to get the "lol we dunno lets just do something " nerf. :>

You people going at each other remind me of the xbox/ps3 fanboys on sites like gametrailers.com where they rage at each other just because they prefer one console to the other
