Starcraft 2 news » Call to Action: November 30 (Burrow Control Testing)

We’ve just published a new Balance Test Map titled OrbitalShipyard (3.0.5 Balance v1.0). We’ve created this test map in order to explore burrowed and un-burrowed units being in the same sub-group, and having two separate hotkeys for Burrow and Un-borrow. We’ve also included bug fixed to the Disruptor and to the map Dusk Towers. We encourage you to test out this new change - to do so, just go to the Multiplayer section, and then navigate to the Custom section and look at the top of the list!

We look forward to hearing your feedback and seeing how these changes affect the game, and please remember that none of these changes are final.

We’d like to remind you that feedback based on playtesting is the most helpful information you can share with us at this time. We kindly ask that you spend some time playing games on the test map before offering your thoughts on the changes listed above.

As always, thank you for your continued feedback and support. Once you feel you’ve had enough time to test thoroughly, we welcome you to share your feedback!
