Re: So without the Paladin class

The Knights of Westmarch and cult of Rathma still exist, so the chances of coming across a paladin and/or necromancer through your travels are pretty good.

Re: Female monk revealed!

Tue, 09 Feb 2010 04:17:23 +0000

We decided that it wasn't worth holding up the update to fix the artifacting on her hand. Essentially it's just that the green screen process used isn't quite sharp enough to keep details like her dainty fingers. Probably something we'll correct but it's not going to stop the show.
OR! You can expl...

Try clearing your browser cache, or just a simple shift+reload while looking at the page.

Re: Isn't a female monk called a "nun"?

Tue, 09 Feb 2010 00:42:43 +0000

This thread reminds me of that episode of Cheers where they corrupted that Basketball player into their oddball way of thinking. Remember how he was counting bolts in the ceiling at the arena instead of playing the game?

You just dated yourself buddy.

Re: How big are replay files gonna be?

Mon, 08 Feb 2010 17:42:32 +0000

Yes, replay files are very small. A few hundred KB at most for a longer match. Since none of the artworks, models, maps etc. need to be stored in a replay it doesn't take a any more space than a StarCraft: Brood War replay needed.

For EU fansites, you can use the following webform:

If I see a US fansite sign up there, I can pass it along. We don't have the RTS fansite program as fleshed out as we would like it to be, so don't worry if you don't hear back from us. We are keeping tab...

What speeds do the replays offer? Is there a 1/3 or 1/4 speed because 1/2 speed can be too difficult to follow sometimes.
At this moment the slowest speed is 1/2 of the normal one.
Can you literally do click by click, play by play replays? (See every single move they do) Is it true we can s...

Re: Suggestion for new equipment slot: Cape

Watch The Incredibles. Never wear a cape.
I think Dollar Bill made a better and earlier case for why superheroes shouldn't wear capes.

Although the shoulder pads do look ridiculous, you gotta remember that you're not going to see the character zoomed up.
I have to agree that these screenshots make it look like the monk just stole some spare shoulders from the barbarian while he was sleeping. End game is going to be really hard to ...

Re: Question on neural parasite

I was actually waiting for someone to think about that, as I was curious about it myself a few weeks ago. You cannot load any units affected by the parasite into overlords.

We design and animate our characters to be viewed from game-cam distance. They really aren't meant to be seen from the distance that we show them on the website. So yeah some things (all things?) might seem strangely exaggerated that close. We have to design our characters, create textures, animatio...
