Good write-up. I'm really interested in obelisk vs regular pylon. Even just thinking about it I'm finding it a little hard to choose. | ||

Well it sounds like it has a short warning animation before the actual damage effect, so it might be even easier to dodge? I can't wait to see blink vs. psi storm  | ||

You can still manually target it, correct? (aka the storm drop worker harrass is still viable, yes?) Or if when you get 75 (?) energy to cast it will automatically do it for you against clumps of units? If there's only a couple units or one unit does it still cast storm on them? | ||

I can't wait to see blink vs. psi storm Oh I suppose that's true. Was only thinking about hydra micro, but considering Romantic said the hydras move really fast, it may be easier. Blink vs strom sounds pretty cool though. :D | ||

Oh smartcasting =/= autocasting. It's just that when you select multiple temps and tell them to cast, only the closest one to the cast location will actually do it. | ||

That did always annoy me somewhat that if you selected a group and casted with all of them if they all wasted their energy for a storm on the same spot. But at least we still should see some awesome storm placement from pros again. Bad reading comprehension on my part, hah. | ||

Of course it is also a kind of torture, since I am aching to play the game myself.  | ||

(Auto build is when you can set a structure to continuously queue up new units as it produces more without you needing to do anything for the rest of the game) | ||

The pubescent nerd rage explosion on this forum would be felt on Neptune. And here goes 1 scouting ling and your 75 precious energy f***s off. It wouldnt be too much of treat IMO, PC wont choose better target for storm than good player, thats why prolly noone would complain.

(Auto build is when you can set a structure to continuously queue up new units as it produces more without you needing to do anything for the rest of the game) Yeah that would be more annoying, however only game i've found that had autoproduction was Warlords BattleCry series. And it wasn't that great - it sucked money at constant rate so you had to have adequate number of prod. facilities, and protect mines even more. Plus differences in certain unit's build times made getting good army composition hard (but yeah, there were races like DE, whose best army composition was mass sorcerors anyway, etc;p). Not mentioning problems with saving $$ for upgrades. | ||

Anyway: was the new SC2 music in the game, or was it still SC1's? Also, are there still any sound effects that are just taken directly from the original? (Stalker death = Dragoon death, etc.?) | ||

but it's slowly getting phased out and the new sounds are really cool. edit: storm is... iono, units clump up so it's harder to dodge but it's definitely possible. I feel we're going to see a lot of predicting where storm is going to land and dodging beforehand. | ||

New storm is interesting (I may have to sit in awe the first few times I cast it though, wow @ the graphic).. MORE damage over LESS time, sounds op with the new pathing... Can't wait to start balancing this beautiful game More reports please :p And on the music, glad to hear it's great, nothing gets you immersed like a good soundtrack, i'll never forget how cool the Terran soundtrack in SC1 is. | ||
