Blizzard's way of trolling you to the bitter end. Lol, could probably still find games on fighting spirit or texas from join / create game, just no guarantees of skill level.

You don't have to own HOTS to use chat channels -_-. Just have to own WoL. If you're reinstalling SC2...then you already have it.

Streamers, please put "Starbow" somewhere in your stream title when you're playing the mod too. That way you're easy to find using the Twitch search function. Thanks!!

Has there been discussion on the use of sunken colonies versus spine crawlers? They were great for creating sim cities and letting zerg be more defensive.


Once again, why change more things to BW when it's not necessary? Why does this always come up in this thread? Constant suggests of adding BW units and abilities instead of thinking of something new or using what's already there in new ways. The game has lots of potential and hasn't even been remotely explored yet.

I wouldn't have brought it up unless I thought it was a good suggestion. Forgive me if it tires you, but this is what discussions are for. And what if I suggested a sunken colony that unborrows and can walk? Would that make you happier? I merely want bulkier static defenses if I play zerg. And this mod is a blend of BW and SC2 so get used to it.

And on another note...
I would like to say two things:
1. The Corsair looks friggin awesome. Great job on that model.
2. Why can't I kill neutral units with the Sentinel's Null Ward ability? I had a 200/200 sentinel army and surrounded a neutral unit with Null Wards only to be disappointed.


Well I don't doubt you felt it was a good suggestion and I'm not saying it's a bad suggestion either. What I'm saying is actually echoing something that you said: "And this mod is a blend of BW and SC2 so get used to it." That's the whole point. If you take out all of the Sc2 content and replace it with almost exclusive BW content, then it's no longer a mix of the two games, right?

Almost all of the unit and ability suggestions in this thread that are not related to aesthetics are basically asking for more BW stuff and less SC2 and new stuff. In my opinion, there's already enough BW and mechanics in Starbow. Let's allow the developers to have some creative license and also allow SC2 to have some presence in this game. Otherwise this becomes no different than SC2: Brood War and fewer people will play it.

Same goes for Reaver's scarab shot. Not sure if that was intended. (No splash damage either)


They do have splash. I just played a game where I killed 44 probes. And that is without the +dmage upgrade

Well to my surprise, my opponent can still catch up on harvesters pretty quickly.

Sorry I was unclear. I meant that Reaver's scarabs do not damage friendly units whatsoever

No need friendly fire on scarabs since you dont want workers to counter your reavers.

Just go to menu>>options>>gameplay. Change the drop down box from WOL to HOTS starter edition..

This give you free access to all the arcade and custom HOTS games.(including HOTS starbow and chat)

I tested it and scarabs work like every other weapon that splashes but doesn't hurt your own units (corsair/valk/archon...)

1. it hurts only one of your units if it's fired directly at it (so there's a cost if you're trying to hurt a cloaked enemy by shooting your own unit)
2. it hurts allies units with both target firing and splash, making teamplay more interesting/annoying

I just have the feeling that it's a bit too big. Otherwise, it looks cool

Anyway, it's not the really-cool australian crocodile model

Afaik sc2bw has a pretty nice defiler nowadays, I'm sure Maverick wouldn't mind giving you guys the model (and you might as well take the carrier since it looks soooo much better than the sc2 version).

Starbow is a mix of BW and parts of SC2(Only the good parts, which have been heavily revamped and redesigned to accomodate this positional, amazing game. You can have a part in shaping it. Many play it, and they love it. To them it is true passion again. Please tell Bisu what this is, and advise him to give it a shot.)

I wrote this poem and PM to give to Bisu, can anyone contact him for me? I...I sent this to novemberstorm but who knows if he'll ever read it. If ANYONE has contact with Bisu, give this to him please, from the starbow team.


Not sure why you pm'ed this to me.
