Weird graphics. Is this Balance?

[Evildrew]

So I have looked at the balance patch changes a bit now. Take a look at these graphics f.ex. Like come on, this is what is annoying people. Random changes that have nothing to do with balance...

The first time I saw this I thought it was the new effect taken from Blackops for cloaked units, but it doesn't seem to be the case, so I don't know...

Did you even try to report it in the tech support forum with proper logs?

[Exotic_Retard]

this is a bug, already fixed in some develop version, dont worry kids

[Evildrew]

Why is blackops graphs even being introduced to the game? I can understand that some units blurring, while others in the same area of the map not, being a bug, but why is this even being done and my question remains, what does this graphical stuff, or ideas of awassas bouncing off puny shield have to do with balance?

[Evildrew]

TheKoopa,
No I havent tried reporting it in the appropriate place because there is no clear procedure highlighted in a frequently viewed place that would give anyone clue how or where to do it.

But yes, bug reporting needs to be easier.

You know
Not everything that is released into faf has "something to do with balance"
You have a clear lack of understanding for development processes and you continue to show it with your low quality shitposting

@OP - Bug happened because of the obscure way a lack of E goes about disabling intel. It accidentally called the FX code. Hotfix should be coming very shortly, once someone with server push wakes up.

As for why I decided to add it, it's because there was previously no way to recognise if a unit you had was Cloaked or not. It should have had a small impact, as only a handful of units ever cloak (Outside of mods), and it should be really helpful to know when your Selen or ACU are hidden.

Icedreamer, sounds reasonable to have a very very slight glow to the unit to know if they are stealthing for team mates. Lets wait and see the fix. Maybe it should not have been included in the "balance" patch.
