Though, I'd like to see some more creativity from Blizzard's side eventually. Then again... That might not be a good idea since they don't seem to be very good map makers... Anyone think they'd probably put in a major update with like an off-set campaign or something? I kinda miss having those around in BW made from both Blizzard and players. Seeing as they limited the amount of maps people can upload through one account I don't think it seems to be so great. | ||

IMO everything in the game should attack the nearest enemy "thing" regardless of type. The priority system is practically designed to cater to casuals who would suffer from bad positioning and control, but gives stupid advantages to those who abuse the system, like stacking SCVs in front of ones army, which severely hinders Zerg's short range army. | ||

This is a terrible idea. There's a reason why we have unit AI and attack priority. The priority system is practically designed to cater to casuals who would suffer from bad positioning and control, but gives stupid advantages to those who abuse the system, like stacking SCVs in front of ones army, which severely hinders Zerg's short range army. If you want everything to attack the nearest enemy thing, how would that change SCVs being used as meat shields? If anything, it would make it more useful. All your units would focus on the SCVs and ignore as they all got shot at by the ranged units right behind. | ||

All your units would focus on the SCVs and ignore as they all got shot at by the ranged units right behind. The reason SCVs as meatshields (with auto-repair) is so strong is that Zerglings try to attack things behind the SCVs even when there's no way for them to get at them without killing the SCVs. Which makes them run around like headless chickens. Ranged units auto-attacking SCVs wouldn't be a problem, SCVs would fall quickly anyway, or you could instead right-click the enemy you want to attack (which is hard to do with SCVs hiding behind Thors). It's not like there aren't ways to get past that (hold position lings, Banelings to kill SCVs, etc.), it's just an annoying game "feature". But I doubt Blizzard cares, so whatever. | ||

If you disagree with the way AI ignores repairing scvs, please comment at: http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/791239331 Blizzard wont change anything if they think everyone is ok with it as it is. | ||

The marines just don't friggin' die when there are medivacs around. | ||

i would be happy, it would stop my air units from running forward unto their deaths because there is a unit that shoots air back there that couldn't hit them while we were shooting these here units in the front that can't hit air. SHEESHHHHHH | ||

How was that elitist? It's truth. If you surround a Thor with SCVs and i try to attack with lings, they run around in a circle not attacking anything. That is a HUGE flaw in the system, yet of course blizzard fixes thor priorities with medivacs/ground units instead of this. | ||
