    We'd need more info on the new ability first though. At the moment it just looks like an aerial Plasma Torpedoes, but I don't like the idea of missiles for Battlecruisers. They've always been non-missile/bullet users.

    That's been done. Several times, I might add.

    Colossus? :D
    Pros and cons of the two firing modes.
    The importance of visuals for an attack from the point of view of gameplay.
    How many elevation levels can/should the colossus see and attack.
    When does it count as an elevated unit (immune to melee), how far does it need to go up the cliff.
    Does/should time bomb slow down its rate of fire (since there are no projectiles).
    The boundaries of stepping over things (force feld, marine, tank, thor, etc.)

    how about zerg basic core attack units (zergling,hydra, mutua, guardian, lurker,ultralisk) all coming back. Therefore acquiring only few(roach/corruptor) new core attack units for the zerg in sc2 compared to the toss and terrans. Would you want to replace some of them by new ones? How many of these unit you are willing to sacrifice in place of new ones? etc.

    Ghost vs zergling one one one in melee combat?

    New races in sc2?

    Would you like the xelnaga and ued to be sc races?

    day and night cycle?

    i dont want to talk about level of terran or toss technology as itza suggested. I have a lot to say about that but would be very time consuming on my part so i would rather not go on with a discussion about it.

    And debating the returning Zerg units, Ghosts fighting Zerglings, day and night cycles, etc, aren't time consuming? Besides, almost all of them have been done and the others are just simple.

    Returning units? It's been done, besides, it hardly matters as their roles won't be the same.

    Ghost versus Zergling? It's been done, besides, that's no topic for an omnidiscussion.

    New races? No. Just no. The UED can't effectively be a playable race as they're all the way back on Earth and although the Xel'Naga may make an appearance, they should definitely not be a playable race. I'd even rather it if they were never shown and as little of their technology was shown as possible.

    Day and night cycle? It's been done. It's just preference.

    How about transportation? The implications of the removal of Drop Pods, the role of the Medivac as a transport, the Nydus Worm, the Phase Prism.

    @ itza.

    when i said time consuming, it means that the topic(level of tech) is too broad and both of us got a tons of things to say about it obviously compared to other already discussed topic as you said.

    New Race would be a good discussion.

    UED, far from earth so they can't be a race? whats with that.

    Yeah transportation would also be a great topic.

    @ zeratul11. New race would definitely not be a good discussion seeing as they've already confirmed that there will not be any other races, thank the gods, and also seeing as almost everyone will absolutely shout it down.

    The UED are far from Earth? The UED is the government on Earth. They're practically exactly the same as the Terran, only the Terran are in the Koprulu Sector.

    OK here's the deal, I have decided that these next 3 months I will do a general poll on your level of satisfaction regarding the units of each race and asking for comments.

    This month will be Protoss
    next month will be Terrans
    September will be Zerg.

    After that we will do something else
    ===
    With Q3 taken brainstorm for Q4

    Graphics and transport are great. Even if transport has been done, a lot has changed recently, especially regarding Zerg. They should be Q4 and Q5.

    Okay...this one hasn't been touched in months! That is just sad, and redisscusing or refrencing something is always good I think (at least once every few years, sheesh).

    The races, haha.

    How about particular changes? Give people a chance at giving their opinions about both the changes themselves and the direction behind some of them.

    Untagging everything isn't the solution to the tag cloud problem

    but brainstorming should be tagged to make it easier to find using the search, which is the purpose of tagging.
