N3O Age Of Empires and Starcraft 2 Clan

Since patch 1.4 increased the barracks building time with 5 secs, I feel like I have so much idle CC time when I try to go orbital at 16, since you already used to have a few seconds delay and with the new patch 5 secs are added. Would it be better to go orbital command at 17 supply (so squeezing in one extra SCV) ?

can you just go 14 refienry, making it the same timing as before? if not, then i'd say rather make one scv less and get the oc faster.

even with 14 refinery its delayed

how about 11 rax 15 orbital? i heard some people are doing that to good effect

i actually dont see the problem with 15 OC.. can do it without delay.

bump    this is the way it's meant to be done:

10 Depot, 12 Rax, 13 or 14 Gas, 15 OC

Yeah its still the best to go orbital at 15 like before. Some gas first builds might open up different timings.

Isn´t it this how u played it before?
For me it is still the same.. before and after patch..

With gas first i usually get my OC at 16/17

no it's not like before the patch. you always had orbital at 16, wth a marine in queue^^

technically if you do it like that the marine and OC should be made at the same time.

Its not a mineral issue, just takes too much time to build :S

obviously it's only a time issue, since the only thing what got changed ts the 65 second barracks, nothing else
