Heart of the Swarm Beta is coming soon!
by Day[9]
The 3rd battle report for HotS has been posted! This time around it's a Terran vs Protoss game featuring the all-new units! As always, the game is still in development, so the racial balance will likely change. Check out Day[9] and Rob Simpson's 3rd battle report below!
The units are cool, but I think that the Match itself was boreing lol.
Cant wait to see a good battle with these units.
Melee: Warhounds were needed unit vs Terran, though who knows about TvP.. , I think better than Marauders and wow I love the Widow Mines! Even though they should have more use vs Zerg. They can remove Seeker Missile from melee, it's barely used and with the coming of these mines. These mines were needed because BW was so fun with using mines around the map! And T needs finally some AOE damage..
Mapmaking: Is this a new terrain set? I don't remember the roots? in the ground on some places (almost look like worms beneath the soil), The flora is awesome! Also I was gonna do in the past a shooter and needed this red-brown color soil and since I never learnt how to customize the color of a texture, this is the type of terrain mud I needed!
Soon™
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@JakeCake26: Go
True that, I am greatly looking forward to all the new things that can be used to make new terrains.
@Gradius12: Go
I hope they didn't remove the original units from the actual game and just didn't make them available in melee, would be a pain having to port units from 1 starcraft to the other...
Doodads at 07:37 could do for some sick Jungle Terrain :)
Will be nice to have all these new units to play with in maps
@Gradius12: Go
As they should be.
@zorbotron: Go
They're called warhounds now, and they're produced at the factory. :P
Tempest is such a weird unit...so slow and mediocre damage with slow fire rate...I cant really see it becoming good unit to use (most likely its OP or too bad to use, sorta like carrier was)
no marauders in sight. good.
@GhostNova91: Go The Transforemrs feel is out of place. Battle Hellions are gimmicky transforming Firebats. I like the new options and strategies.
Aside from the tempest every new portrait seems waaaay out of place for these units. And the only thing worse than the war hound model is the portrait :(
Sick game though!
