Dude, I was Plat and played TvZs for all my placements and got into Bronze XD. Granted, I did throw my last placement since I didn't want to play any more TvZs since I'm soooo bad at the matchup right now  .Huh, my client crashed when it started loading SC1 Greatest Hits.

I'm running with everything on low, except for medium textures and high models. My specs are i5 processor, Intel HD 3000 integrated graphics, 6 gigs of RAM on an HP Pavilion dm4 laptop. That being said, I've noticed that ground textures are sharper-looking, and I'm on the fence on whether or not I like the new Creep look. Sometimes it's harder to discern Zerg units when they are on Creep. | ||

Sometimes it's harder to discern Zerg units when they are on Creep. It's wrong. Zerg units are easier to see on creep, than now. Lighter creep - harder to see zerglings for example. And look at HotS presentation. They already said, that they will make textures better and sharper on low settings. And I understand that change. Players, who are playing on lowest settings, turning EVERYTHING off, including things, that do not change game readability, but makes game to look a bit better. Smooth textures looked weird really | ||

•Banelings will now auto-cast Unburrow if a Colossus comes within their attack range. Only relevant balance change I see. And... what? So the banelings unburrow and evaporate to the thermal lance? Are they on hold position? Attack (towards the colossus)? Why has this changed? EDIT: It was explained to me a few posts below I don't play Zerg ^^ | ||

They already can auto-unburrow when units come close to their range. This is not worked, if colosus walking over them. This is not a balance change, this is only a bug-fix of unpopular function "Auto-cast unburrow" for banelings vs colosus. Launch SC2 now and burrow ANY zerg unit. Then see, that you can auto-cast unburrow commandfor ANY zerg unit. if that hydra, then they will unburrow at 5+1 range from enemy unit. If ultralis, then at 1 range, etc | ||

Source: http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/5590642507 But, there is some bugs with balance. If you play ladder games, it is a 2010 WOL 1.0 build. But if you play Versus AI or custom games, it is the newest 1.4.3.2 build (with queen buff, overlord speed and all that). | ||

Also kind of upset there's no clan support yet (although there are signs of it!) and no old-bnet-like public chat. :/ Arcade schmarcade. | ||

Sometimes it's harder to discern Zerg units when they are on Creep. Me too, exactly the same stuff, except for models. It feels weird to play because of colors and I also get fewer FPS.
