    Several videos on BlizzCon show that the destroying of a Protoss building is suddenly, without any animation of smoking.
    Personally I don't like this because as an opponent you can hardly find which building is going to be destroyed. Recalling all the 3 races of the original SC have there building smoking, firing or blooding as HP lower than a threshold, hope Blizzard will fix it in SC2.

    Hmm... yeah that is a problem. I wouldn't be surprised if they added this later on, but for now it just looks as though you need to pay attention to health bars and whether the building has the little shield bubble around it.

    I wouldn't worry about it. I seriously doubt they'll leave it that way

    If they give everything away already, they wouldn't satisfyingly build up the tension for the actuall release of the game. I actually believe that it's all done and all this waiting is just to build anxiety till the release and make a huge impression by their first week sales. If they change something now, I bet would be minor things in response to public opinion. It's all done and packed ready for shipping! We just have to wait and see.

    it's probably just that they're not finished with it or they have other stuff to worry about.

    I want it now too daing it, the LATEST I can take it being released is early 2008.

    Anyway If for some mysterious reason they do leave it like that you'll have to get used to keeping that ALT button down whilst your sieging your enemy base.

    no problem. each race have advantages and disadvantages. and protoss got the better out of this one.
