U can actually destroy Replicators-

-If towers are within firing distance they can be selected, like any other units, and directed through the replicator. As buildings cannot move, they fall back on their natural reaction to any problem presented to them, and blast the hell out of the thing. Eventually the replicator will explode and be permenantly(?) destroyed.
Is this a bug?

It sounds like it would be, but since it actually blows up I am not sure if it is or not. I think it would be cool to destroy the replicator.

nice find. that is a bug, and it will go on the list. It will probably be fixed in the next release.

Fix it!?!? Heck, no! Why would you fix it? If anything, make MORE things destroyable - like walls, rocks, whatever can stop a shell. :D

Being able to destroy a replicator adds a whole new dimension, especially if the enemy tries to destroy it when you control it. Why, it might even blow up quite dramatically, leveling an area. :twisted:

"Commander, we can't take the enemy out - they are replicating too fast!"

"Sarge, take a squad of men and destroy the thing."

"But sir! That's suicide!"

"War is hell, son."

BaBOOOM!

Yeah, I agree this seems like a really cool feature to me, not a bug.

Bowing to popular opinion we will probably leave this as it is. As for destoying rocks and walls, that will probably have to wait till after we are finished with the multiplayer version. I assume that it's more important to you that you can talk some smack to you friends then blowing up a rock here and there right? :twisted:

You are making the assumption that we all have friends :D ... especially after we talk smack to 'em :twisted:
