EPTNew Dustin Browder interview (From WCS china) - Page 4
| Forum Index > SC2 General |
monk: Just talked to Dustin and did an interview. There's a mistake in this translation. He said in the test map, Psionic units will be unaffected by Fungal, not Neural. Also, they're looking into a lot of changes for the infestor, including removing Neural entirely in HotS. | ||

Sad to see they think BL/infestors are only a problem in PvZ, but i guess 250mm strike cannon changes will resolve the issue... | ||

Stalkers have to blink under the brood lords to avoid being blocked by broodlings. Which means there's no way to avoid fungal once you decide to engage. ==> it's exactly how it works now. pretty much hit the nail on the head it's not a question of OP or UP (although it probably is OP), but having most of your army locked into place and riddled with a thousand broodlings that screw up pathing is not very exciting to watch. people pay to watch battles not duck shoots. | ||

Yea confirmed, if you have the unlimited access to WoL you'll get HotS for free when it launches in China(which is very likely to be around the same time as rest of the world imo). I was right in front of Mike Morhaime when he said that and the the interview room just went on fire lol. | ||

PvZ isn't a stale, or imbalanced match-up because neural parasite works on a mothership. If you can't control a mothership without getting neural'd, don't make it. Quit running it out infront all by itself and being surprised because you ignored an obvious possibility. But, the greater point is that this wouldn't change anything for the match-up. I don't care if I can neural your mothership. It's not like any of us think "ooh I'm just gonna neural that and win!" as our playstyle. However, many Protoss do seem to think; "I'm gonna vortex them and win!" Maybe fix that. Nope, they think "I'm gonna vortex them and maybe have a chance not to lose instantly! ". | ||

They think "I HAVE to vortex them to have a CHANCE of winning". | ||
