Dustin Browder said that we're 'going to see Roaches at Tier 2' . Do you think he just slipped up, or is that something they're actually considering?

He also said that even at this stage in the game, they're not completely closed to the idea of adding or removing units, which is exciting, in case they do discover something fundamentally broken .

We have an ability in the game now called “Acid Spores” which the zerg can cast on enemy forces and it creates these fungal growths on a person's body and then it will spread throughout your force. But if you manage to kill the guy who's infected really quickly, it won't spread at all. But it's only a fraction of a second you have to make that decision and make that move.

Ugh. I hope not... though that means Hydras are tier 1 again I guess. That's good for Zerg anti-air I suppose.

Well, Zerg kinda need at least one more unit I think.

Actually the whole sentence was: "You're going to see roaches at tier two, you're going to see hydralisks at tier two." Possibly he just slipped up on the Roaches and they're not actually going to be in Tier 2. I imagine that the build changed a lot before the Beta .

So... uh... we're getting zerglings, banelings and um... Infestors at tier 1? :P

Do keep in mind that this was very likely recorded before Beta went live.

Oo, Acid Spores sound nice, a bit of Disease reminder

3 month beta period? Sweetness.

3 month beta period? Sweetness.

Shortest Blizzard beta EVER.

[Kimera757]

That's not necessarily a good thing. Now that we've finally reached beta, we can be more patient... and Blizzard needs to make sure they're taking the right amount of time to do things right.

Final stretch = 1 year

3 month beta = 6 month beta

I hope I'm wrong...but this is Blizzard, after all.
