thanks for translation!

David Kim is definitely know what he is doing.

(Chris Sigaty) We are planning on Cross-Regional battles. We are planning to make this happen before the Heart of the Swarm. But I believe that the balancing issue will remain. Balancing a game is a very difficult job.

coooooooooool!

Thanks for the translation. Like the translated responses rather than the english interviews actually. Wish they would comment why they're taking a relatively conservative approach to the expansions rather than a revamp touching even the marine. (Relatively conservative to what I would want anyway)

But if it rounds out to 50%, does that mean that protoss is dominating zerg? If so, that contradicts the:

"In Europe, Zerg tends to be stronger against Protoss. Overall Protoss seems weak while Terran and Zerg seems to be about the same"


I hope you are embarassed for not looking at the date of this interview and also for not bothering to read the rest of the thread were people point out that you should read the date of the interview.

David Kim: "We are trying to make it so that Terran players play bio half the time and mechanic the other half the time."

They have a lot of work to do if that is to happen :p

Good interview and thanx for the translation!

The Truth by Korean Netizen:

BestToss: The Terran problem is probably because the foreign players do not know how to use the Terran very "cheap." (Referring to all-in and etc) If Terran always goes all-in, they're such a fraud race.

that really does not make any sense once you think about it.


If a foreign terran cannot do an "all in" as good as a korean terran, then this whole thing about "all inning" not taking any skill is b.s, Since clearly it takes Alot of skill to all in properly .

Doubt they'll touch the marine in WOL, not with mech being less than viable.

Maybe in HOTS if Blizz reworks mech.

I hate how they're trying to 'fix' the problem of ball vs ball by making units as uninteresting and boring as the shredder. All the coolest units in BW and WoL were those that were versatile, which creative people could use to great effect. Vulture, infestor, baneling, are all units that are able to be used in lots of situations that offer a lot in offence, defence, harass, space control. Shredder? Can someone even theorycraft a creative use for the shredder that isn't 'place in random space to deny area', 'contain opponent', 'kill workers'. Heck nydus has a lot of creative uses that isn't 'stick it in enemy base', even though it is rarely used.

I'm seriously thinking about starting a "Save the Overseer" petition. While HOTS is a whiles away and little is known about it (to me at least), at this point, getting rid of the overseer seems like a huge mistake to me. Now, this is me imagining the viper's detection spell as a one-off, not energy based. If that's not the case, then my feelings are a bit unfounded. On the other hand, losing the changeling as an army tracker and general, cheap scout, would be a loss.

RELEVANCE EDIT: Sigaty said he listens to feedback, here's your feedback. Also, I think it would be a great thing for the community at large if each expansion was designed to create 3 truly viable games, though, I could see that being problematic for tournaments.

In the Expansion Pack (SC2), you tried to change the flow of the multiplayer games….

A. (David Kim) We tried to add more specialized units for the Protoss.


Why.
That doesn't make any sense, if anything, Protoss needs less specialized units, and better, sturdy core units D:

Given the date of the interview, I think the main bit of interest is the planned crossregional play... that sounds like it could be pretty good.
I also think that Protoss needs more core units, instead of more specialized units. What they have planned for HoTS seems kind of gimmicky to me.

Another buff for protoss and another nerf for terran?
There will be 0 terrans on ladder then.

T might dominate korea but will be dead outside.

The difference is that foreigners in general have far more stigma towards "cheesy" plays than Koreans do. In Korea, a win is a win (AFAIK) and if you win through all-ins or cheeses, so what? As long as the games are good.

Outside of Korea, the attitude is very much "play standard or you're a newb". HasuObs' PvP style compared to Huk/MC/HerO's, for example is very safe and standard and trying to go for a macro game. Idra is infamous for detesting all kinds of early game aggression.

Foreign Terrans are quite possibly the same. I rarely see foreigners polish up a 1-1-1 or variant and go kill people with it, and I would suspect that the ratio of "macro" games to all-ins is probably far higher than it is in Korea.
