Really? Because some people say that Salvage could be OP in its current carnation.Quote:
I like this more than Terran salvage, and would gladly give Terran salvage up, since it doesn't do much anyway.

Those crazy TLers and their crazy ideas!
Giving the ability to the hatchery and make it a ranged ability will help out trouble shooting as creep is not player owned. As a secondary effect the hatchery might stop producing larvae (even if Spw larvae is used on it).
This way ppl might think it twice...
as well slots could be added into the hatchery, this will allow the player to recycle every unit but with different timing
lets say a ling takes a single spot... so u can digest 4 at the time and takes a little time.
then u decide recycling an ultra... so u can digest only one and takes longer
Nonetheless, the process can't be stopped, so if you lose the hatchery you lose the unit and resources as well.

Well, but now i believe recycling my units is a bad idea (time and no larvae) What stops me from not doing it?
Easy, after a unit is digested it will return 2x the original resources. (subject to balance of course)
Er... yeah, don't like it much. Giving the Queen 'consume' is a much better idea in my opinion. Maybe as a hive upgrade?
My question about this is: what makes it better than Spawn Larvae?
It is the resource asselerator of the zerg, why should i have more larvas than i can produce units.
Zerg are quite vulnerable when producing drones. As for terrans and protoss its not that risky to boost resources. Even if you manage to produce the drones necessary to reach the full capacity of a boosted protoss, you will still make less minerals than him.
(following information is a test)
60 probes harvesting = 600 mins per min
60 drones harvesting = 500 mins per min
And if by some point you manage to match the scores. Population for the zerg will start being a problem.
Would be crazy in the late late game when instead of killing of drones for extra supply you actually get paid for it lol.
And with the new larva mechanic I feel that zerg will have enough larva too produce drones and units just fine
