What makes protoss weak isn't how they spawn gateway units, but rather how weak gateway units are, how much Protoss depend on colossus, the inability to harass or punish effectively, and the cost inefficiency off every protoss unit, etc.

Observer requires Pylon, Gateway, Cyber Core, Robotics.
I am not sure how you count your "tiers" (there is no official definition) but obviously Banshee requires 3 builds in order yet Observer requires 4. The total build time to get to Starport is 170 seconds yet 205 seconds for robotics.
As for some AoE shield generator, it would be good addition to fix a bunch of stuff, especially in PvP which I think has the biggest balance problems. Terran and Zerg already has two defensive buildings.

I can't believe nobody is reading the OP. The reason the gateway units are weak is because warping in strong units would be OP offensively. That's the premise of the OP.
It's obviously not "how they spawn units" which is the weakness, but the consequence of balancing that for offense involves neutering gate units, to prevent offensive warp-ins from being OP.
So, outside of offense situations, gateway units don't really hold up because they are inherently weak (in terms of unit stats) but can spawn right at the enemy's doorstep. But when they're not spawning at the enemy's doorstep (e.g. defensive situation) then they don't really cut it anymore.

You are wrong about the defendor advantage in my opinion, protoss with easy wall in, photon canon and force field has a better defense than zerg. The problem with warp gate lies in the strenght of it : since you can warp in a round of unit in a limited time anywhere on the map, protoss' timing attacks are godly. To balance that, protoss gateway army has been nerfed down (zealot with less shield, stalker low dmg, sentry nerfed back in the beta). So, in the end, protoss army is situationnal : at some point you have an advantage if you go for a timing attack (4 gate, 6 gate a really strong... but timing based of course) but overall if the zerg or the terran opponent build an army in time and don't play too greedy maccro wise, know the timing, then they can defend. But in big army vs big army, the gateway army act like a big wall of unit, with no dps : only templar, archon (well... a bit) comes from the gateways and deal some dmg. Mass stalker is also a good end game combination since it can almost deal with everything, is easy to replenish, with good HP and really nice mobility.

You forgot the depo. Don't add in the pylon then leave out the depo just to make your point.

So many people are just too dumb to understand the point the OP made. Many posts make me believe they haven't read the thread at all.
|
I've been saying this for ages since before retail at least. A shield battery type ability was infact available pre-beta, on the dark pylon thing i believe. They didn't think about warp gate implementation at all apparently, the fact it breaks defenders advantage and removes rush distances. It's absurd.
You can't give an ability like teleport, chuck it right in at tier 1 and then balance the game around it. It's madness... BW maps were carefully made to be some exact number of seconds rush distance to ensure the best balance, it should be just as important now.
|
I havn't read the whole thread but besides the differences of cooldown, the cost of a unit is another important factor of producing. Maybe its not the cooldown or producing time, that needs a bit of tweaking.
Just a sample: warpgate unit cost remains the same - gateway unit cost is slightly reduced. Zealot: 80/0 instead of 100/0 Stalker: 100/50 instead of 125/50 Sentry: 50/80 instead of 50/100 HT: 50/125 instead of 50/150 DT: 110/110 instead of 125/125
I don't know, if this would be too much or wouldn't affect the producing in any way. But no one mentioned it before.
|
It's an interesting read but I don't think much will change this far into the game.
|
I had honestly almost forgotten about the shield battery, but now that I think of it, I would love to see it return in SC2. I think it would work just fine, and serve the same role as it did in BW: I.E. an emergency defense, and nothing else... which is exactly what protoss would need to hold off all-ins better. Would really like to see it out on PTR to see what would happen.

There could be many solutions that would help with differentiating offensive and defensive Protoss, and these are just a couple that came to mind that could be viable in my eyes:
1. adding a shield battery or equivalent structure - PvP or rather PvX defender advantage for that matter - would be funky if used offensively early game
2. changing the gateways/warp gates cooldowns - make warp gates cooldown 1/3 or 1/4 longer than gateway - requires 1/3 or 1/4 more production buildings respectively to keep production at the same level when warping in @ proxy, so it would give the defender that much defender advantage - not sure it would be a good idea to make the cooldowns lower than they already are
3. make warpgate upgrade at cycore warp in only next to gates - add proxy pylon upgrade at cycore that requires citadel/stargate/robo bay/buildingX to unlock - make maybe enable warp prism to warp in without proxy warp in upgrade
4. adding a "tax" for warping in at proxy instead @ gateways - hard to say how much, 10-15%(?) - tooltips could get confusing - maybe have proxy warp in upgrade from point 3. to remove the tax later in game - or making the tax inverse, making the units cheaper when producing out of gateways
5. any combination of above
I realize most of these affect PvP the most, but that is the goal, since other matchups don't have that many troubles of getting past early game. We still don't know how 1.4 will affect Protoss holding off the 3-1-1 all-in so I would be hesitant suggesting bigger changes that would turn pretty much every matchup at every stage of the game upside down.
Most of the solutions would make switching from gateways > warp gates and vice versa a decision, unlike the gimmick that it is at the moment, set and forget.
So here's to hoping that they will make some adjustments along those lines in HOTS or WitHitV (What in the Hell in the Void), I think it should make the Protoss race that more diverse and fun to play

I don't know, if this would be too much or wouldn't affect the producing in any way. But no one mentioned it before. I mentioned this on page 29, but i had them buff the units, then increase the cost of warping in.

It messes up the basic fact of defenders advantage that most RTS thrive on to have longer more stable games

Not true. The choice of where to warp-in can only help Protoss; it can't hurt it. Protoss always has the close rally perk in PvT and PvZ, because it has the close rally perk everywhere, whether attacking or defending. PvP is balanced by definition (both sides have the perk).
It seems to me that the best way to solve Protoss' lack of early defensive structure is to make the Photon Cannon weaker at the outset and include a midgame upgrade for it, bringing it to its current strength. Not only would this solve the problem of needing an early forge to expand, it would reduce the effectiveness of the ever-annoying cannon rush. Finally if we're talking about balance then it is hard for me to say if Protoss need help defending or should even have help opening up extremely economy oriented. I personally feel like you guys can keep up fairly well in terms of economy with chronoboost and sentries, and your two base timings are just so darn good that I would feel uneasy if Protoss had access to higher economy all ins with well fortified bases. If anything the changes that would be made would have to be very carefully thought out, it seems like it would be too easy to make something overpowered. First off, cannons are right where they belong, just like turrets and spores. Toss just has no bunker/spine equivalent, tech wise. Sentries fill this role of early defense... But by making sentries to defend, you have less attacking units, so the number of gateways you have to produce before expanding with a good defense is more than the other races. And its not like sentries are free! 50/100 is EXPENSIVE. Extra sentries means more gas, which means less minerals. More sentries means more gateways for other units, which means less minerals. Which all adds up to a later expansion. Also, Protoss has the slowest econ growth of the 3 races. Some chrono must be devoted to early units and warp gate for any defense to be viable at all, and MULEs and inject are much more efficient at growing an economy.

Warp Mechanic does not make the defenders advantage weaker. THe defenders advantage is mosly comprised of travel time, vision, defensive structors, and concave. Tosses units are not weaker especially with sentries able to enhance all the defender advantages.
About the above post, u make an analogy where sentries are like a spine or a bunker, then whine about how u cant be offensive if you make sentries. Also last time i checked sentries could move and can block ramps of ur opponent.

How are Gateway units weak? Weak in what sense and with respect to what? People keep saying so that it seems to be becoming received wisdom, but I am not sure if this correct. If they are not weak, then the whole premise is wrong as is the focus on WG mechanic.

Of hatch tech, rax units, and gateway units gateway units lose every time.
