...removing the zergling wings? They were great and made it feel like zerglings actually evolved since BW.

Now the evolution seems to be that they hop in unison.

Why did you remove it? PUT IT BACK!

"Ok, rush them guys."
*thirty seconds later*
"Red what are you doing? I don't see workers in your base."
"They're fighting the workers at the other base. You told me to rush."

Q u o t e:
zerglings develop their wings after the +speed upgrade, before that there's no wings because it's part of the evolution look. Similar to banelings crawling on the ground but once upgraded then it will roll, it's all about the upgrade display looks.


He is correct :) We want to visually be able to show upgrades so enemy players can more easily tell when they are up against upgraded units (such as Zergling/Baneling speed, Zealot Charge, Stalker Blink, Marine Shields, etc)

Q u o t e:

But, may I observe that in the last battle report zerglings did not have wings after the upgrade? Did developers remove them temporarily or?


The last battle report is not up to date with changes that are currently being talked about on the forums. Builds and updates change frequently and rapidly here - every week there will be changes and replays/games will be out of date.

Q u o t e:


What is the visual clue to denote the charge and blink upgrades?

Thanks.


For those two, they will not be static visual upgrades, but instead you'll be able to see easily in the animations. Not all the upgrades will have static visual upgrades.
