Protoss The Pylon power radius now displays up cliff levels properly on Low graphic settings. Fixed an issue where certain protoss structures would sometimes continue to display a warp-in animation if they became unpowered. Terran It is no longer possible to stack a large number of units into tight spaces using Medivacs. The Medivac_HealLoop sound now plays properly when a player manually heals a unit with a Medivac. The Command Center’s Load ability will no longer reserve a cargo slot for nearby SCVs that are busy constructing buildings. Fixed an issue where flying terran structures would sometimes use their ground death animations when killed. Fixed an issue where the Hellion’s flame attack would only hit burrowed units despite other units also being in its line of fire behind the burrowed unit. Fixed an issue where a Bunker could be made to look empty despite being loaded with units by using queued Rally commands. Zerg Banelings will now auto-cast Unburrow if a Colossus comes within their attack range. Morphing units no longer become stuck in their cocoon state if they are underneath a Hatchery. Active Creep Tumors no longer display as dormant if their Spawn Tumor action was canceled during the spawn animation. Brood Lord and Overseer Cocoons now have a Rally command instead of Move, Hold Position, and Patrol commands. I am concerned with these changes.... so are they just for custom or for the actual gameplay of SC2? | ||

Can anyone confirm? Yes. I can say that is a lot smoother to move ur screen from minimap / on screen. Before it was all like sharp and shiet. Totally love the changes. Also I'm playin on LOW and the graphics looks pretty smooth / good too. Not that gloomy/depressing. | ||

Moreover, there seemed to be more waypoiting shown by probes on movement command. Though, all of the above may have just been because the client was not full updated when i was playing. There are now chat channels that u can join when looking through strategy, multiplayer(arcade) etc at the top of each game type. This is to help I guess with the "community" aspect. Overall, not much changes.. and personally I don't think it's really "better" just different. Though, some of the other things that will be introducted with Hots i think will make the new UI much better and smooth with the game. We will see though. Also not sure if this was mentioned earlier but clicking the mineral patches shows how many workers are mining from it (like how gas buildings worked already). | ||

If this is because they implemented an acceleration rate for screen scroll, it will hurt professional play, since it actually means "less responsive". | ||

It will hurt most of the competitive players. It actually sounds terrible to me and I'm only a mid master player -_- | ||

LOL wait so if you were to morph a ling into a bling, it would glitch and be stuck as an egg underneath a hatchery? Also, didn't even know you can tell if Bunkers are empty or not, wtf o.o | ||

I bet they will implement some sort of optional "Use Scrolling Acceleration" option, Blizzard is pretty good about that sort of thing. EDIT: "Optional... option." Check out dem repetitive redundancies, man. | ||

Also, didn't even know you can tell if Bunkers are empty or not, wtf o.o An empty bunker has its uppermost bit look kind of "lifted" and the portholes where the marines fire from are black. When the bunker has units in it the top bit lowers slightly and the ports light up based on how many marines are in it, along with the shooting animation from each port based on the number of marines. One marine will mean that if a marine shoots you only see shots from one of the ports, the one that is closest to the bottom of the screen for example. | ||

When you say smoother, did you mean more responsive or something else? | ||

I think you read that wrong. It says that if there is a zergling burrowed, and there are unburrowed zerglings behind it, previously the hellion would only hit the burrowed unit. But now, it will hit the burrowed unit and also splash the ones behind it if they are within range. | ||

Well, on the mini map with current version( not 1.5beta) when u move ur screen through ur mini map it feels like small jumps all the time, if u know what I mean. On 1.5, it feels very smooth, U can't really feel the jumps. Also i noticed that it's different feel with the cursor too. Feels really good. I love the changes, although the one thing I'm not happy with is that they didn't add ANY statistics. Such as ur winrate vs Z vs P vs T etc etc. Just same old shit with better lighting. No stats of ur winrate on maps or anything like that. The one thing that I really love is ur Ladder menu, with new Race icons and graphics. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/czJHy.jpg) | ||
