Couldnt agree more....makes me hurt inside lol.
After playing the crack i suppose it is time to change races to Terran now that Toss are getting bent over

[seed013]

protoss are still ridiculous though imo, so hopefully its more balanced, but I don't think terran need so many buffs

Ok nice, they fixed the Ati cards but most of the problems are on nvidea cards....Good thing on balancing some more though !

Meh, Blizzard's main focus will be balancing all races properly. I wouldn't worry too much about it atm.

i concur... its only the beta, i bet u'll see a lot more changes to the final that we wont see in the beta

I think that the major problem with Terran is that they get way too many minerals with the MULE and not enough gas.  I think they should increase the mineral cost and reduce the vespian gas cost for Terran.

If you're gas low, try to get an expansion up with only gas to start. Also make some marines/hellion with reactors.
Zerg had this problem in SC1 as well.

Every race has their own special ability at the base:

1: Zerg get a queen, which if used correctly can increase spawn rate by a ridiculous amount. In my opinion this blows reactors out of the water. Especially when you have multiple Hives. From my point of view Zerg is a horde race, just make as many units as possible as fast as possible. Lings are very cheap and when upgraded arent too bad if you have air support. With the queen you can spawn 14 lings at a time after a hatch. Multiply that by 2 or 3 and you have 30+. Then with speed increase it doesnt matter how far your bases are apart, your lings will meet fast hah. Also, this wont cost you more than 500-700 gas too fully upgrade zerglings etc.

2: Protoss get Chrono Boost, which is f*ckin great. Speed up tech and unit production. No other race has the ability to boost tech production. That is a huge boost to the Protoss. I find myself twiddeling my thumbs waiting for tech upgrades when I play as Terran. I use the crap out of this ability. With a couple warp gates, you can call in reinforcements in no time using Chrono Boost.

So, when you think about it. Every race has a special ability involving their base, and when used correctly can turn the tide of the war. Wether its gathering minerals, production speed or unit creation.



On another note. I just played my first match with the new patch. I feel like the AI was alot better, but I think its just me. If any of you coders notice some AI got implemented Id like to know, I am curious. It could just be the combination of AI scripts I am using. I have Goosie v4, IAI Protoss, IAMI Advanced Melee, and the Zerg and Terran AI scripts from the japanese guy. This combination is the best so far! If anyone is interested I will upload a copy of my files for you to try. I have a replay you could check out if youd like also.
