When Blizzard fix this hopefully at the same time they can look at the air upgrades and make it do a proper +1/+1 instead of +1/+0. Been +1/+0 only helps Terran (marines, hellions and SCVs), which is pretty lame if you ask me.

I can dream, right?



Am i the only one who didn't understand this post at all?



More like, did anyone understand anything about this post?

Same here, the phoenix stays in the 'graviton' mode even after the unit dies.

I can understand, if they patch the phoenix's ability, and by some bizzare bug in the code, that causes com sat scans to act funny. I can forgive blizzard for missing something wierd like that. (Note, there is no comsat bug)

But when you patch the phoenix's ability, and that ability is now broken worse than before, that is something really dumb. It takes about 15 minutes to play an average game. Besides just random testing, sit two employees in a game, tell one to go for phoenixes, and SEE IF IT IS FIXED.

yes because that is what blizzard has been doing a lot with starcraft 2. making it more difficult and harder for new players.


Are you saying you would like this advanced technique to stay like I do?

Can't you already turn off autocast for medivac heal? Now that's what true pros do.

Back in my day we had to tell each individual Carrier to build interceptors separately! And we liked it!
Try using both Irradiate and Defensive Matrix on an Overlord. It looks pretty neat.

You had to do that in the original and it applied to reavers as well. They changed that with BW.

This really just isn't good enough.

It's not even a complex bug. If it was something like ... using the graviton beam on a Queen as it spawns a creep tumour which caused some issue, it'd be understandable, because they obviously can't be expected to test for EVERY possible scenario which could take place.

But this? It's just using the ability which causes the bug. Don't they test their fixes at all? =/

The problem this bug creates is much bigger in actual combat. In harass it is not so hard to just cancel with escape key although it does complicate matters a bit. The BIG problem occurs when you have some 8 Phoenix with your main army and you have to pick up a ton of units off the ground. Which messes up a ton of stuff because you are doing a lot of other things at the same time.

It REALLY screws up the unit.

they released the game when it was still in beta form, why would they start treating it like a final version now?
It is a profitable thing, if one is wise, to seem foolish.
