Actually...
  • They didn't replace the Submachine gun with the Huntsman.
  • As one carries either Huntsman or Sniper Rifle, they can still carry one of these:
    • Submachine gun
    • Jarate
    • Razorback
    for defending themselves at close range.
  • Will always carry the Kukri.

Hm :ermm: Guess they just don't pull it out, 'cuz everytime I get close range lately they just keep trying to pin me against the wall.



None.

Yeah its because of how effective Hunstman is at close range. Or they have Jarate

EDIT: Speaking of which, lolspy kill I made today just after he backstabbed my medic :3



(I was too busy screenying, that other spy to the left magnum'd my ass after the pic was taken).

Also, crosshair on the sniper is lame ._.
Yeah, it kind of made my no-scoping skills all for naught, since everyone can do it now. I had HELLA no-scoping skills.

Yeah, me too, even though I don't play Sniper much.
It seems like people thought that it was impossible to no-scope earlier, cause now everyone's doing it all the time. Pretty annoying as Scout.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[04:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings
[06:15 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.

NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
[03:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:
