Reapers

theres been lots of posts about the reapers im new to this website and so far i like it

 

@pro its cause reapers are "the shiz"
reapers are going to be like zerglings, u click to build one and get 2

except ur have 2 pay for em and u get 3 then a cooldown, + great to have the building right next to your base so if there is a unexpected harrass you can get 3 reapers out in like 15 secs tops. (not exactly sure how long)

Also this is my first post sence my internet came back online, lemme here a w00t!

 

those reapers are going to show terrain imbalance lol

 

thats like saying, "those stalkers are going to show protoss imbalance"
or "those immortals are going to show protoss imbalance"
or "those nydus worm are going to show zerg imbalance"

its all new stuff so we cant know what will work or what wont work right now.

 

calm down tweak! Just have some coffee. No one is gonna abduct you... ;p

anyways, if what you're saying is true... then reapers are gonna be sick!
Man, even with all the things that need changes... SC2 is gonna be sooo different from SC1 and it's gonna be awesome!
All the small changes just add up to make it seem so great! ugh- can't wait.

 

lol u think coffee helps people calm down? thats what put me in this situation.

 

i dont know much about the SC2 units i keep forgetting them i only know about 3

 

what? i didnt get that post sorry

 

It does limit the power of the siege tank, but it's great that there's finally land units (reapers/immortals) that can take it head on, rather than being stuck with air for large concentrations of siege tanks. I can just see reapers jumping in between tanks to make them blow each other up... hehehe

 

nice thread btw, but it just got me thinking of something (dunno if this is posted somewhere else) but, when a unit, say reaper, jump up/down from a cliff, will the siege tanks be able to fire on it while it is in the air, will turrets fire on it? what u think?

 

i would probably use the reapers for worker harassment more than anything else, i heard they're pretty weak, but really cheap and quick to build. I wouldn't even use them for attacking immortals unless the attack is in conjunction with marines, they're just not tough enough. (did you see just how many reapers are sent in to kill off 4 immortals in the original gameplay demo? like 15-20 lol http://youtube.com/watch?v=1ipBCEZwbM0 ) So naturally anything that can't fight back with low hitpoints like workers, would tempt me so much if i had reapers.

can they attack air?
and also can reapers only use their jump packs to jump up cliffs, and not just to hop around the map?

oh LJYLJ if turrets could fire on reapers, that would look awesome, but idk the answer to that lol.
(btw i wish they they'd give reapers a helmet, the leather skull mask/cap thing looks foolish, and the eyes?? cmon we all know where they got those eyes ... http://ruremodeling.com/dic1.JPG i mean just because they copied blizzard doesn't mean that blizzard has to get revenge by doing the same BLIZZARD YOUR ON A WHOLE 'NOTHER LEVEL FROM THEM.)

 

Does Southpark pwn or what?

 

lol they are commmin!
