    Sc2froums sends a monthly report to blizzard with our good ideas.
    Well I hope he'll include this.

    If this makes it in, Lemmy and I ought to be paid for our hours of hard work. We should also be credited in the Creative Team.

    Lemmy, we'll split it 80-20, but I get any baked goods that may be included.

    Blizzard does not need us to help them if we say we want to be paid.

    If we post our suggestions, that's free. Else we'll just send a CV to Blizzard to be engaged.

    * haha I like it!



    So this idea basically puts the 3 on a scale.... right? so the protoss's technology doesn't show it off as much? on the big screen?



    Least Visible<--------Protoss----------------Rens----------------Zerg-------->Most Visible



    just an idea for terrans and toss.

    **********************************************************

    What if when the terrans were viewing cloaked units, the enemy's cloaked image (- the green-static sort of holgramish one of course -) sort of "blink'd in and out" but this did not effect the range of weapons or turrets... its just a little nuance....

    like if the terran player, if he was ripping around the screen tooooo fast, they could perhaps miss that cloaked ghost sneak past those turrets when it blinks for that 0.65 of second.

    however, the toss's viewing image was constant - Superior tech plus they rely on their obs so heavily cuz they are weak... so this affect would just keep the rens on their toes!

    and well, the Zergs viewing would obviously always be visible, its thermal for gees sakes, not luminous.
    *************************************************************

    but ya dude, GREAT THREAD!

    Well, I don't think it is a good idea. The best way is SC1-like in my opinion. The proposed idea would make only a mess on my eyes.

    why? you would never see cloaked units in ALL the different ways, it all depends on what race you play, and usually people only play 1-2 different races, so you would get used to it.

    why that, one person would only view one type of cloaked units?
