Starcraft 2 Q&A batch 14

Immortal is not the replacement of the Dragoon, the stalker yes ? I do believe it is the inverse.

 

The Immortal looks more similar to Dragoons than Stalkers do but considering their abilities and roles, the Stalker is the new Dragoon with blink.

 

I highly doubt about the answer on "will bunker have any visual distinction of being occupied or not". In the terran demo, the bunk looks slightly different with 4 rines in the bunker, than with none.

 

That was a long time ago. Right now, the game is probably very different from the one they showed in the demo. So in the final product, it's entirely possible that there will be an indication whether or not the bunker is occupied or not.

 

yeah,but the thing is,there already was an indication...

about the immortals,i do believe they are the replacemente of dragoons,both lore and gameplay-wise,but i could be wrong...

i would like this to be adressed in the next batch:can two or more Ghosts use the Snipe ability on the same unit at the same time ??

 

double snipe, ouch! thats one dead marine

 

Of course they can. Why couldn't they.

 

overkill isn't it

oh and LT if i give you more minerals later (maybe) will you change the color

 

Yes of course!

 

Colossus can be transported, cool

 

I'm wondering if you can transport allied units, and if so, then would the phase prism be able to hold a thor? can a thor fit in a dropship?

 

I highly doubt it. Since allied units aren't controllable by the player him/herself.

 

They're not but if you control the transporting unit then you could theoretically load and unload all units except for enemies.

I would like to see more diversity between the races, like the Protoss being able to transport any kind of land unit because of their highly advanced technology (energy form) but the Terran could not transport Thors for example. I mean, they are moving forts 4 times the size of a Dropship!

 

I'm also wondering if transports can load units from other races like they do in SC1 (ie: load Siege Tank in Overlord / Shuttle). As there's no word of Mind Control, the only possibilities for this to occur is in UMS, and in team melee (which you can have more than 1 race to control.

 

Is it possible to drop alien units in the drop pod ? I mean the ghost can launch a pod with 6 marines inside ok ? But can we already choose what to put inside a pod ? If I want 3 marines, one ghost, etc ... can I do that?

And again can I put a zealot, a zergling of allies inside a pod ?

 

dropping 6 dark templars would be overpowered

 

I think the pods carry only the marines and nothing else and that won't change.
