I have some questions and statements about replays as I'm a huge huge Warcraft 3 replay watcher, really enjoy it and I guess I'm one of the slim % of gamers who really do see it as a sport.
What speeds do the replays offer? Is there a 1/3 or 1/4 speed because 1/2 speed can be too difficult to follow sometimes.
Can you literally do click by click, play by play replays? (See every single move they do)
Is it true we can see the replay from the FOV viewpoint of where the original player was looking at the time (albeit confusing when they are at full speed)
I've heard we can go backwards on replays, can we also drag instantly to a spot in the replay (IF NOT: can we PLZ have a "are you sure you want to restart" button on the replay, I hate accidentally re-starting a long one)
Can we enable / disable observer chat, player chat, team chat levels? Sometimes I wanna see what the observers have to say, sometimes not.
I believe there's talk of adding support for casted games via mp3 file later on - but built in to the game, any more news on that?
On that note could we get a replay which is not only including commentary but it pans around the map as the caster sees fit? Almost like a video of sorts, without downloading hundreds of mb.
What's the approximate size of a replay, I'll assume larger with the new features, is it in the 1mb range or the 10mb range?
Does anyone else have questions, on the small chance a blue responds?

At this moment the slowest speed is 1/2 of the normal one.

I can confirm that you will be able to see what units are being selected and the camera will move exactly as the player moved it during the game, plus you will see all the clicks made by the player.
You won't be able to see the mouse cursor itself though.

You can jump instantly to a specific moment in the replay and you can rewind it.
There's no "Are you sure you want to restart" button simply because you don't really need it :)
