Bug Fixes


* Fixed a bug where the Infestor's Neural Parasite ability could cause Reapers to lose the ability to move.
* Fixed an issue that could use an incorrect HDR format on some ATI cards.
* Fixed a crash that could happen on some ATI cards.

 

The bug fixes are a welcome for the Terran reapers and in general of course. Reducing max capacity of the zealot is going to hurt the early game a bit but not very significant until the late game phase. Terran got a huge buff on weapon / armour upgrade speeds for both biological and mechanical units. 30 Seconds is quite a big thing, making a Terran push / offensive much faster. With that, we might be seeing more fast expansion heavy upgrades builds which are starting to pop out into the third week of the beta.
