Does this explain why every game over 30 minutes (and it's Metropolis, of course the games last over 30 mins) looked like a ppt presentation?

While they're at it they should replace the rocks on the island with a creep tumor... Rocks on an island expansion whose idea was that must've been Browder. Am I supposed to warp in 10 zealots to break them down?

i think that creep tumor favors terran a lot, they can load scvs in a cc, scan & kill the tumor with the scvs. other races have to tech to drops/nydus (unless there is no room for the cc to land... not sure if there is)

I don't understand why they didn't use the Lite version that GSL has published in the first place. This fps issue has been known ever since Metropolis was released. Good job, Blizzard.

I'm rather curious, I think this issue might be related to ATI cards; though I still need to confirm that...

I noticed a frame rate drop a couple times -- from my usual ~60 to a still smooth 25 -- but I didn't realize there was a flaw with the map. I liked it for the most part, shame to see it go.

I like this map and hope it comes back soon. Great map aesthetically.


I think its because of a) they dont like it b) they think its imba for zerg cus after killing the tumor you can throw down hatch right away and other races cant do that

Metalopolis will be the NaDa's body of the Blizzard map pool and just keep going and going and going and confusing newcomers and old timers alike who haven't accepted it.

Apparently SCV's have good jetpacks because you don't need to be landed to unload/load SCV's.

Well this sucks. I don't recall hearing about this problem before (Blizzard tinkered with it and put in in their map pool)... Was this an issue before?
