Changes look good and show that they're definitely testing out stuff rather than taking the knee-jerk reactions that are half of the posts in this thread so far. I'll wait to try them for myself before deciding but I'm always excited about new stuff! | ||

We have decided to keep the overseer Yes! I love the overseer! So happy ^^Not sure if we need these alternative Nydus Worms, because it sounds like stuff you can achieve by OV spread and drop. Generally I like the idea of variety of worm mechanics though. I hope they keep the Carrier, after all, hope they read what proportion of the fans want it. The Terran anti-siege missile reminds me for some reason of Dune 2's Death Hand of Harkonnen; I mean, it will probably have some serious disadvantages to its usage, otherwise it would easily become the most op unit in the game.

I can see 4-5 of these eating minerals in your opponents base pretty frustrating if your terran, with the lack of melee units. | ||

They've already talked about a beta. It'll show them how ridiculous any idea of a caster gaining energy from the most abundant resource in the game is. | ||

It doesn't exactly fit with their particular idiom of being an honorable warrior culture with superior technology. you can't be a honorable warrior in an aircraft?? And I just think it would give Protoss more options than they currently have, and isn't that Blizz's whole 'things' behind the expansions? | ||

Huh, nice work. except the carrier was useless when it comes to forcing fights when a carrier attacks you want to sit back and jsut blow up the intercepters instead of running in and attacking the main army | ||

Very concerned about the Tempest though. Sounds like a very very dangerous addition to the Protoss ball. | ||

They focus so hard on making role specific units and not ones with possibilities for diversity. Ffs, they say "this is supposed to do this because of this reason". | ||

We are also trying some additional abilities on the nydus network to allow you to spawn different types of nydus worms. The most interesting worms have been a worm that can spew creep across several screens to create a zerg assault highway, as well as a worm that attacks only enemy buildings, meant to be used as a ground-based zerg base raider. my body is ready | ||

If we keep the Thor, we are currently experimenting with an anti-air spider mine that would give the terrans a way to get some factory-built anti-air into small places that a Thor has trouble reaching (like near your minerals). Whether this is meaningful, considering terrans have marines, is still in question???????? We are also experimenting with an extremely long-ranged terran missile launcher that can be used to break siege tank lines to make terran-vs.-terran factory-based games more dynamic." If terran dosen't get a decent warhound and if Blizzard dosen't make mech more viable vs P/Z im finally gonna be able to drop sc2 without regret. Anti-air spider mine? Really? Long ranged terran missle launcher? Awfull thor still in game? From what I read here it dosen't really look like a expansion...it looks more like a terran nerf. | ||
