No, but LotV will be standalone. Probably only ladder and campaign behind the paywall, though! (If they keep the theme thaat they have with heart of the swarm)


That is terrible .. How can we compete with other esports...

You can't make it F2P unless you have microtransactions like in MOBAs.

@Hider:
I agree with all the points you mentioned actually. But what exactly do you mean with Damage Point?


The time a unit needs to stand still before it can attack. That's why Immortal and Collosus feel more unresponsive than Marines and Maurauders.
For some units, there is a good reason to have a damage point. For instance Hellion vs Speedling as Hellions otherwise would be able to kill infinitive Speedlings, but with Immortals it's just completley unncesary and just makes it unpractical to attempt to move it around.

Having a damage point of 0 makes it feel so much more rewarding (and imo fun) to control the units. I really would like Blizzard to look more into that.

8 range colossi is huge. Everything definitely points towards a general gateway buff.


I would take that trade any day of the week. Better Gateway units for less WG capability and less reliance on AoE.


Well, I'd take that too, but where did you read anything about a stalker buff (chargelots probably don't need buffing) ? Because I didn't. I feel they should at least tell us changes to the gate units are on the way, because man otherwise... As a Protoss I don't even know what would be strong about my race anymore.


Nowhere. I think it's just a given, everything else does not make sense. They didn't talk about Collo being only range 8 as well, that tweet basically did... Maybe the panel on "what's next esports" will deliver all the answers we seek.

Maybe include the LotV showmatches in the OP to see the new units in action

Just make it a generic vehicle that shoots air without lock on. Just make it a reliable Mech anti-air cause thats what Terran lacks with Mech. An Anti- Air Unit that shoots fast and is mobile. Hell even if they remove it bring back the Warhound that shoots Air without that Anti Mechanical crap.


You know that viking is an anti air unit ?

Im talking about a mobile GROUND Anti-Air Unit. also Vikings dont shoot fast.

I don't think it's a good idea. The videos explain already the reasoning behind the changes pretty well and those showmatches were quite embarrassing (except maybe the ZvP).

If people aren't allowed to voice their opinions/concerns about the concepts, then what's the point in showcasing LotV at all?

Its not even in Beta and people already whine. Its fine to voice your opinion but not if you havent played with it. My point was that they should not just remove a unit without having tested it properly.

To be completely frank. I do not think blizzard understand what makes an rts game fun, is by unit interactions against each other.
Player control is the key, race dictating the power or what to do is boring as hell.

So to be realistic here, i dont think they will adress the bigger and more important issues in this game.
Tonight they will talk about sc2 multiplayer - we will get more intell then, hope iam wrong but i really dont think i am.

Just look at the economy. I even think a tweet from a sc2 dev said something along the lines "the economy had a big overhaul".
No it doesnt. Its the same economy. Its not what the community wanted, pretty far from it.

Redesign the Thor so it's actually fun to use like the Goliath is. Having too many AA units in the game will just create an overlap effect.

It's sad watching the commentators try to pretend the LotV isn't grotesquely imbalanced. The game is in alpha, there's no reason to not call a unit out for being stupid.

This. Thats also a good way. But instead of making it smaller, faster, less costs, and less supply they want to make it self repair, which is just promoting cheese strats again and not the problem of the Thor.

Vikings are already pretty much the best anti air/cost in such situations - even without Raven support. You can't have the cake and eat it too. I am not sure fixing that particular "problem" should be that high on the agenda... but that's just me.
