Macro idea: Protoss "Speed Warp"

[ArcherofAiur]

If this idea was to make it in the game it should be focused on either just building construction or just research construction. Their are already several mechanics that affect unit production speed. So something like this



Zerg Queen
Spawn Larva
Creep Tumor
Hyper Evolution: 10X research speed for current upgrade



And Id move the healing spell to the Overseer and make it AoE.

It could increase the cooldown speed. Dont they display the cooldown remaining?
Im not saying I support the idea, it might be better on the obelisk or something.

Hyper Evolution: 10X research speed for current upgrade.

Ah ha.

AHAHA.

AHAHAHA!

Ah ha.

AHAHA.

AHAHAHA!

Id even go higher. But I kept it conservative for people like you......who worry about PC being "mass effect" and such

Now this is the part where the rap breaks down
It's real intense, no one makes a sound
Everything looks like it's 8 Mile now
The beat comes back and everybody loses theirselves.

idea: HAVE NONE of this stuff!! :O. Just normal resource and building like every other Blizzard game and not fuck anything up

I've proposed a similar idea for Terran. ;p

Drop Building Assistance Drone (BAD) (inspired by Santrega's suggestion):

- unlocked by Barracks
- requires resources (say, 50/50 min/gas)
- 25% building buff speed when dropped on a building under construction
- salvages the target (restricted to player's structures only) when dropped onto a completed building (technicalities of salvage subject to balance)
- destroyable
- only one BAD can be dropped onto a single building (however, it one BAD dies, the player is allowed to drop a new one)
- no energy from OC required
- no cooldown
- Sensor Tower's field of vision needed (subject to balance)

Works like this:

(- build Sensor Towers in appropriate locations)
- select OC (with BAD(s) available)
- press a proper hotkey
- select the target (Sensor Tower's LoS needed)

Possible uses:

- speeding up FE
- speeding up Depot/wall-in construction
- speeding up Turret construction
- faster teching
- faster tech switches (e.g. salvage redudant Barracks and assist in constructing Starports)
- getting rid of redudant buildings on the battlefield, and so on

Hey Maybe,

What idea was that? Do you remember?

Im sorry im just imagining what starcraft 1 zerg would have looked like if they had kept the building infrastructure the same as Warcraft 2. LAWLS!

I'm looking for something constructive from Blizzard Aiur, not something that is going to ruin the game.

We all are. But if your in this to be constructive and not just whine about how they shouldnt change anything then we are happy to have you on board.




Besides we've heard enough of that line from the anti-mbs crowd
