Guys pls confirm. Nah, wasn't promised IIRC. If we were getting it it would be in the patch notes.

Guys pls confirm. They said the next feature patch, which is 1.2. This is a balance/bugfix patch, no features at all.

Im kinda glad they nerfed the void rays. I never use them and I dont even see them that often any way. I never liked the thing to begin with.
Removing the energy bar from the Thor kinda sucks for me. I really liked Feedbacking those guys.

When does this go live in the US?

IMO it was at least in part a 1v1 fix. Ever get 7 rax reaper proxy reaper rushed? It's almost impossible to stop unless you scout it almost immediately (which is tough, because by the time your drone gets to their base, you're SOL and the first reaper is on the field).
I think it is still viable, but now you can have a few lings out to deal with the initial harass.

Guys pls confirm. You basically answered your own question. It is probably in patch 1.2 yes but we're not there yet we're at patch 1.1.2

Not sure if the medivac nerf will make any difference. The number difference seems really small. Marauder will take longer to snipe buildings as well.
Main thing I'm thinking of is if they stim and run their medivacs will be left behind pretty bad and my stalkers can eat them. And just general mobility is decreased post stim, with medivacs now sorta slow. Is a 9% speed decrease really gonna make them so slow that it holds back the whole terran ball? I mean I honestly don't know, but to me, this change just seems to give you a little mote time to react to a drop if you spot in on its way. Well of course it holds back the ball. Any ball moves at the speed of the slowest unit, and post stim that's the medivac.
Speed is a huge attribute, don't underestimate even a small nerf to it. Stalkers should be able to comfortably pick off retreating medivacs now, whereas before they could get some hits but usually the medivac would survive back to base.

Ya ya sorry... Got overly excited and thought this was already 1.2 patch... i thought it was FAST..

You're going to lose drones, sure, but he's already cut a lot of SCVs. But yeah, not going to see any really early rax again.

how nice how they fix all bugs except the one that affects zerg(ultra spash one)
|
Although I like medivac beeing nerfed, I dont think speed was the first thing I was hoping for. And depot before rax might be good in some way, but not necessarily what we need. Oh well, need to try this asap to see how it works. Wonder how this will effect GSL2.

Patch might be borked.
Downloaded new patch, logged in, now I can't play multiplayer on SEA (tells me i need to download the new patch!) or cant even log into NA (tells me I have a version that your server doesn't accept yet)
Probly just because I am connected to the NA account though, time will tell.

about time! im sick of seeing protoss think they can play like a zerg
i dont think the depo before rax was necessary... defending 10rax reaper wasnt that difficult even with a fast expand

Some stuffs pretty cool.
I don't think I'm going to lose with Zerg anymore.

Void Rays will work way differently now.
Supply Depots take 1 more Baneling to bust.
Reapers totally slaughtered, but everybody knew about that already.
Like the Thor and Corrupter changes. 250mm cannons may get more use now.
Wrong. Banelings do 80 (base) damage to buildings. You still need 5 (5x80=400) banelings to destroy a depot, same as before.
About your last point: I'm pretty sure that 250mm cannons are not avoided because it costs energy, but rather because of a bad mechanic. The ability itself is not getting changed in any way. Only thing that changes is that you can't feedback Thors anymore, which is good though. You still need to research the upgrade.
