It would also be a bit weird if the turret was indirect fire and make the game feel less "starcrafty". It would probably be built defensively against tank pushes making the game even more gridlocked.

And, guys, the game is still not even in the beta phase, so please don't act like this will be the final product and whine about how much it will suck. | ||

...some good changes and some interesting ones... I wish they would just bring out a beta for us to play around with but by the sounds of the changes they have made and are still making, i can't see a beta being anywhere close to being ready...  | ||

You can tell who does and doesn't pay attenition to the SC2 scene much Blizzard made this game to be an e-sport, from the ground up that is exactly what their intentions were. | ||

The tempest was a powerful splash anti-air capital ship at BlizzCon. With the addition of the range upgrade on phoenix in Wings of Liberty we no longer feel like a splash anti-air weapon is necessary on the protoss, but we would still like to give the protoss some additional firepower in the air. The tempest is currently a very long-ranged aerial siege weapon that can strike both air and ground targets. This gives the protoss army some real reach to force an engagement on their terms in the end-game. Sounds pretty much like the carrier to me but with guaranteed damage (no interceptors to be killed). | ||

Players want to win, developers want to make it hard for everybody to win. I think that too much player input in the early stages is bad. I guess Blizzard had and still asks players for input, but you cannot just go an please the players. Most players consider their own race being the hardest and asks for more and stronger options for their race. | ||
