Wow, you got muta micro to work. I thought I heard the reason it wasn't put in the game because Blizzard didn't know how to reproduce the bug? It's so easy to do. One data change in editor and you get muta stacking without having to select overlord. I don't even make mods and I figured this out immediately.
yea.... but. that allows 100 mutas to stack without effort 
they also remain stacked when not moving.
it's not really THAT simple. like i said. Blizzard could easily code this in.
the hard part for me was working AROUND blizzard's pathing.
|
omg this game is so awesome. just did bunker rush and the good old 3 tank vessel push before defiler.. so many memories.
|
Looks like for the pathing they just removed the swarm AI code - but the superior pathfinding is still there. (In BW pathing was done by A* on a hex-grid followed by walk to target.)
|
How about tinkering with game balance now that you have all the small print down? I know scouts were the BM unit to make but how about actually making them useful? Perhaps a small tweak here and there would improve the game, after all BW is CLOSE to perfection, not perfect.
|
you need to get rid of smartcasting or vessels and templar will be overpowered.

guys guys, everything about BW is in this mod, please play the mod before commenting that it needs "X and Y to be good".
Still, marverk still has some work to do to make this perfect, which is why we need people to PLAY it THEN give feedback.

maybe its an option that you can disable or something, but the op doesnt mention it and I just saw on the stream 7 templars kill ~40 hydras because storm is enormous and does huge damage again, and you can just smartcast it all over their army.

Smartcasting can be turned off in the options ^^
They probably just left it at default or something for fun.

Wow, haven't played the map yet, but watched the stream and holy does it look awesome.
Good job with the work! For a BW and SC2 fanatic alike, this is a great past time. :D

Originally it wasn't possible. Blizzard had to break the game's engine in order to make it possible. They left it out primarily because of how absurdly strong muta stacking would be with unlimited unit selection and how utterly useless it would be with Thors and the like.

Leaving it out was probably a good idea. Would rape P (archon) and lose against T (thor) and Z (infestor) with it.
|
I suggest all Z players who has never played bw, to try the 5hatch hydra break against P and marvel at its awesomeness.

I am so happy. Now Protoss is fun again and takes real micro to play. Reavers owns! I have sat down waiting many hours to play this mod but no one ever came. But with this boost perhaps someone will join me for a game.
BTW: Is there any EU chat channel for this mod?

SC2BW channel. I got two games just now through that. I am d- or even worse in BW, but was fun anyhow.

Whats the point in making sc2 be more like bw? I mean, you could just play bw, couldnt you? Nice effort though

Bug:
You're supposed to be able to use the shield battery ability on the ground near units, and the units automatically run to the shield battery to get healed. This does not work.
Also is it just me, or is the music not working?

Music works for terran and zerg, but not for protoss (yet)
