GHOSTCLAW and Lovedrop will be representing TL at Blizzard's Heart of the Swarm preview later this week. They'll be writing a recap and all that fun stuff.

As far as we know, the presentation will mostly focus on the single player campaign, so try to focus your questions on that. We'll try to sneak in a few multiplayer questions but there just might not be that much info about it right now.

What do you guys want to know? What do you guys want our two TL reps to ask? Post in here and we'll hopefully get some nice information from Blizzard.

Soooooooo excited :D

Will there be any way to link the decisions made in WoL (save Haven/purge Haven, etc.) to the HotS? Or will an "actual" story line have taken place which has one or the other... or will it not matter at all?!

Is there any possibilities that players will have even more choices to make and will any of these have long running consequences?

Thank you!

Are there any plans to add Zerg units that can traverse different level terrain like the other classes have?(Protoss Collussi and Terran Reaper)

Will Zerg get a unit that provides better early game harass?


Basically any questions about new units going into the game for HoTS.

Any plans on implementing games where allies in a 2v2 game, can remove ally and "backstab" like in BW ?
Team LiquidUnderneath it all they were really quite nice. They just got screwed up. Mostly by stuff that wasn't entirely their fault.

Will the leaked ending of HoTS still be the same, or has it been redesigned?

A question I have:

How will the difficulty of the campaign (especially the beginning several missions) compare to WoL? Will the first several missions be designed to introduce players to Starcraft, or will they begin with the assumption that people have beaten WoL and know how to generally play Starcraft already?

I'm just hoping that the first three-four missions won't be teaching us how to move units around the map. ^^

How many units are planned on being added to the multiplayer?

Will there be campaign only zerg units just like in Wings of Liberty?

How many missions do they plan on having? More than WoL or less? and also, will there be upgrades to your units or no.

Will there be controllable zerg hero units apart from Kerrigan? If so, can you tell us a bit about them?

Will there be a co-op mode for the "single" player campaign? Something akin to Left 2 Die.

How do they plan on working in the upgrade system for Zerg units? As it makes some sense to have Money paying for upgrades to Terran Units, it makes no sense whatsoever for Zerg.

Also I heard they were planning on increasing the "RPG Elements" from WoL in HotS. Have them elaborate on what that means!

Will there be missions that are a more traditional "Build a base and Army, break the enemy's base", or will they be the same style as WoL?

Is Tychus findlay's involvement finished?


Will Single-player units have the same stats as sp units from WoL, or will they be adjusted to what mp stats are?

Will there be a radical change of style in how the story develops or will they continue with the small branching that does not actually affect the story too much. I mean, in the choices the player faces, will they have a greater effect on the storyline; i.e, you chose to side with A instead of B, so in a later mission B comes back to kill you while you have something else to do, hence making the mission harder; or will they rather continue with the soft choice system they've used so far?
