For what it's worth you get to see plenty of nuke drops in this video.

Programmers?
Those guys are Pro players, not programmers

pro-gamers Black Rose. one 'm'.
Nukes are still pretty underwhelming, both graphically and damage-wise. The grid based building layout is a needless limitation. Other than that, looks okay.

Most pros dont make usage of nukes

I agree with the nukes, but I like the grid layout personally.

You gotta remember this isn't Supreme Commander size nukes. There is something in Starcraft lore that mentions the warheads used by humans to be low-yield warheads.

Bingo.
If you guys wan't huge explosions, graphics that have the initial wow factor, and lack of game play turn to the EA games.
Re: Video of two progamers playing SC2
Or, I could state an observation that the explosion from a nuclear warhead seems a little underwhelming and that it bothers me. 
To see grass still growing and a building relatively untouched after a direct strike seems a little mind-boggling.

Well permanent terrain modification isn't out of the question. You have to remember nothing they show is really as is as you can see by the weekly changes made to the game. SC2 is built on the Havok engine, which is the same physics engine used by Company of Heroes which did have permanent terrain modification. But with that change, balance changes might come into question like higher ground damage reduction.
Re: Video of two progamers playing SC2
Oh, I'm not even really asking for something along the lines of a CoH sized artilly crater (though that'd be hawt). Just some nicely scorched Earth as opposed to a 1x1 crater would be pretty.

Taknarosh, never mind him. He gets his criticism from the EA games talking points memo. EA releases a memo every morning trying to find a way to criticize god's greatest creation. People who buy into the EAs rebellion against game play shouldnt be trusted.

Boycott EA and their goal for world domination.
And none the less, a nuke shouldn't just be a flash and then have nothing noticeable occur afterwards.

Thank you!
Re: Video of two progamers playing SC2
Alpha K thanks. If it bugs you that much complain to blizzard. The did change the siege tanks graphics on request. I'm sure if you complained on the forums they would do something to the nuclear blast.

If every unit/ability were as strong as its name implied, the game would be quite imbalanced wouldn't it?
(For example: black hole)

Anything is fair at the right price. Even jordan admitted that!

I wouldn't listen to thayme he's on the take from EA games.
Re: Video of two progamers playing SC2
The Protoss would be capable of generating a tightly controlled black hole (or perhaps just not capable of generating a very powerful one, given the energy available) from their Mothership. Meanwhile, you are in fact launching a nuclear warhead at the painted target. No excuses.

Simple strategies work on progamers, cuz they are progamers and lose 3 mintues after a failed zealot rush.

Can you rephrase that for me?
