Blizzard recently released Warcraft 2: Remastered, though not without some controversy, as the original version of the game is sadly 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:about to be🐻 delisted from DRM-free storefront GOG. It seems Blizzard wants to make sure this new version of one of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best strategy games ever made is worth investing in, however, as the studio has just released Warcraft 2's "first bala🅺nce changes in 24 years."

I put "in 24 years" in quotes because I can't independently verify exactly when the last patch went live - PC game updates in the '90s were not nearly as well documented as they areꦅ today - but the word of Blizzard's Adam Fletcher on is probably enough to trust. At a minimum, this is certainly the first balance patch to hit the game since it was succeeded by Warcraft 3 in 2002.

for yourself if you want all the details, but basically it's a bunch of damage and power value tweaks for various units. Most notably, Bloodlust spell for the Horde's Ogre Mage unit has been nerfed, decreasing its duration, increasing its mana cost, and making sure that the double damage effect it bestows on allied units applies after armor reduction - not before.

Bloodlust has the best spell in Warcraft 2, and the power it gives the Ogre Mage means that Horde has always been seen as the better of the two factions, such that competitive players . This particular change has been a long, long time coming. "Bloodlust FINALLY NERFED after 29 years," as one puts it. they've been waiting🌌 for this "since primary school!"

World of Warcraft devs used to joke about the MMO making $1 million per month - just months before it smashed through $15 million in monthly revenue.
