Contribute to the Monthly Report!

Guess so, I'll just have to wait. I still like the sig you got now, coolest one I've seen on this site.

 

Yeah, I missed this thread completely, dunno how. Had a question about the emphasis on mobility and the blurring of units...

-Sits and Waits for next month-

 

Why not send them ALL in

So the one you added was exactly what I already asked?

Good job

I applaud your effort

 

You can still suggest questions, I was just telling you guys that I'm not in a dire need any more. Please do still suggest them.

Also, @ BoP , sorry, somehow I missed your post.

I gave you credit now

 

How many suggestions/questions do you forward to Blizzard each month? Do they put a limit on how many you can send because that would be tragic.

I have another question:
In the original game Shields took fiull damage from attacks regardless of the damage type of the attacker and unit type of the attacke. How will the new damage system affect the shield dynamics? Will unit type damage now be factored in (ie. shields ofsmall unts take more damage than large units vs anti infantry weapons)?

 

@ BoP

Yes, sadly, we're capped to 5 issues and 5 questions.

Also, regarding your newest suggestion, there was also some discussion in Hyperion regarding this very subject and whether the different Protoss units should receive different base boosts of "armor." Such as the Zealot receiving 0, the Stalker 1, Colossus 2, etc....

I think that will be included in next month's report once we've had a chance to flesh out the idea. So you may want to make a thread regarding it or just brood on the idea and suggest it again for next month's report.

All in all, though, the reports are getting tedious because they expect feedback and yet release no information and fail to respond in a timely manner. It's very agitating, but it aligns perfectly with my past experiences with Blizzard.

 

That's a bummer.

I will get right on that thread. If you wouldn't mind sending me the relevant information I will be sure to include it in the topic. I do though already have a thread in the Protoss discussion already about having higher base shielding on larger units

 

Then I would just expand upon that idea.

I don't have any relevant information, it was simply a passing comment made in the Hyperion. I believe it was authored by NateSMZ, but I'm not entirely sure.

There were no numbers or figures involved, it was just a suggestion. But if you want to flesh the idea out for the next report, that's fine with me.

 

OK I was just wondering because if you already have a discussion going the comments would help direct my thoughts.

I will get to writing though some time soon and if you would like I can also compile the results of the discussion at the end of the month so you can include It in the submission

 

Sounds good to me. A lot of times it comes down to my making perfunctory assumptions about what some of the major discussions have been over the month, so if someone notices that I haven't posted in a thread in a while and doesn't hear me talking about it in a preparation thread, I may have overlooked that particular thread and it might be a good idea to bring it to my attention.

I welcome anything that will spread the workload a little more.

 

I suggest that you assign a person to each section to look for good discussions becasue some of them are really good

 

Haha, well, I don't exactly know about that, because then I would become lazy.

And trust me, I see about 95% of the threads on this forum. I may be late in getting to a number of them, but I eventually at least scan most of the threads.

If it catches my interest at all, or in the least pertains to SC2, I usually read it in its entirety. If I have posted in the thread or made an argument, I've obviously taken a keen interest in the thread and I'm considering it.

I'm only concerned about the threads that it's humanly impossible to see. I mean, when confronted with 1,000 new threads a month, I'm going to miss a few.

But I'd rather members play safe than sorry. I'm actually quite happy when I receive a PM, it makes me feel like I'm helping. So if you see a great thread and want to let me know about it, and you're not sure if I've seen it, please send it to me! Or if you have a question or concern that you don't feel has been answered very adequately, feel free to PM me. I'm here to help anyone I can.

I really won't mind.

 

Oh OK. I didn't want to waste anyones time. I press the report button enough as it is.

I am willing to help out if you need it since I always need something to do to keep me from staring at the wall between classes

 

I understand the system around the questions but I don't really understand the system behind the suggestions, could someone elaborate please?

 

Hey don't forget to include the October discussion of te month. It might have fallen off the radar due to lack of posting

 

This may be late, but if you still need issues then you could add a link to the omni shield thread. That has a lot of good and important things about how shields should/ will/ can work. If anything, it gives Blizzard a look at how we like the new recharge rate and ideas on how to best use shields.

 

I am compiling a shield thread for the NEXT report

 

I've already submitted both reports because they were due at midnight.

I didn't forget about the Battle.net discussion. I just compiled the ideas that were in that thread. There were NINE good ones that I submitted. Pretty crazy.

I doubt they'll bother to read it, LOL!

Anyway, I'll be keeping a sharp eye out for the next report as well. But it's up to you guys to have awesome discussions that generate these good ideas!

Note to self : Don't forget pylon detectors

 

Note to self: make a word document to keep a permanent list of all the questions I come up with for next report.

Report early so to have a better chance of being added to the list.

 

Will it be possible to get an upgrade for the Zerg to speed the heal up for ground and air units, and so structures?
