Hi everyone.

We recorded the Starcraft II Multiplayer Panel at BlizzCon and uploaded it to own3d to share it with all of you

http://www.own3d.tv/video/243861/Starcraft_2_-_Heart_of_the_Swarm_Multplayer_Preview

Edit says : We added http://www.own3d.tv/video/243920/Starcraft_2_-_Heart_of_the_Swarm_Multplayer_Q_A

Dunno if its worth, but maybe this adds nicely to the news about the panel for everyone who wants to see the whole panel themselves.

Best Regards
Mike

Im pretty sure this is illegal, isn't it?

I watched the panel live, and I must say that im not super convinced that all the things shown at this, is actually gonna make it into the finished game.. It looks like they are making things extremely complicated for themselves as developers..

On one side, I like this because it's ambitous - On the other side, Im affraid that it's abit too ambitous :/

When they show the units ingame, the game speed is not on faster right? Because it looks very slow.

If you're going to be pointing to and clicking on a ghost, you might as well Feedback him. Just saying...

If you straight posted their video coverage then yes it would be, if you have a media pass and they allow you to record footage then no it wouldn't. There may be legal issues if they didn't have a media pass and or worked for blizzard and just got what i'd assume is a cheaper pass into the event and took footage to post for a media outlet.

Long story short if they did it right and blizzard didn't tell them they couldn't they should be fine.

No, they said that stealing workers is possible right now, but that they will be monotoring if it will be abused

Will they did kinda imply that by saying the only exception or case that they are giving more attention to is the OC.

It's pretty weird. Stealing workers and building a CC or whatever seems pretty fun for casual play but fairly impractical for competitive play. essentially you're paying 1000/200 for an OC.

I guess part of that would be mitigated if you could use probes to bring resources to a CC, and if supply depots counted towards your own protoss supply cap, then the real cost is only something like 500/200 for an OC since you actually get a viable expansion, but assuming mules pay for the cost of the OC itself, then really its 350/200 extra cost for an OC-- still a pretty big time/resource investment.

I suppose the easy fix would be to restrict workers to being able to bring minerals/gas back only to native command structures-- this forces you to build scvs out of the CC if you actually want the CC to pay for itself as a viable expansion. *shrugs* I just think it's funny that they're so worried about it.

I'm extremely skeptical about all of these additions and changes. These new units are overly complicated and have abilities that discourage micro ("oh he's disabling his opponent's minerals, lets sit and watch"). Also, none of these changes address the current problems in the game.

Each race gets a super unit per expansion. Thor will be removed at end of HotS, and the Hatchalisk will be added for Zerg.

Any thoughts on their proposed balance changes for the next patch?

Reduced splash size on EMP sounds like a good change to me. And cheaper Forge upgrades? Yes, please.

DB thinks recall will allow protoss to "hopefully be more agressive early on"

Yet I heard it cost 75 energy from the nexus? Do they not want us to chrono anymore?

Apparently, he was one of the developers for Battle.net so all the gameplay questions didn't apply to him. Thus, he stayed quiet.

Also, if replicating workers is forbidden, it might be possible to replicate an Infestor then use Mind Control to steal a worker. Would be pretty funny.

Warhounds look extremely one dimensional, and remind me of command and conquer.

The shredder looks like some QQ incoming. I hope they can balance all these units though they look promising. Also they should just tweak the model of the warhound :p

Because mothership was not noob friendly. They made the new thor noob friend, 1 a, etc. It is not meant for competitive play.
