I am happy with the vast majority of changes. Not quite sure about the Hydra design, but things are shaping up nicely so far.

I would really like to see a side by side with all unit and building models, as well as animations like

storm
defiler cloud
reaver scarab
iradiate
arbiter warp in/stasis
etc

hoping the spell animations got an overhaul as well. I can't really tell from these videos

Why would you? You don't even know the spells' real names .. xD

Jokes aside: True though, since after the trailer, I've been wondering, too, how the spells animation look like. I was thinking about storm and plague the most.

Haha, I imagine dark swarm (aka defiler cloud^^) looking weird. My brain just can't handle it being in HD... weird. I guess plague will be HD red instead of just red... Gonna be exciting how the spells will look like for sure!

I made a long post on the official blizzard forums addressing my concern with the updated marine graphics, which got deleted twice... Not sure why but I'll add it here.

So, the updated marine does not pop out on the screen as much.

On the Starcraft Remastered homepage, where there are the 5 graphical comparisons, there's a group of brown marine/medic getting killed by yellow muta/ling. I'm sure you've all seen it by now.

I don't know if it's just me, but the marines really badly blend into the dark road tiles. In the original artwork,they're less "realistic" looking, but have better visibility because of the lighter grey color glints on the armor. The new artwork looks cool but has a darker grey metal design, which seems to blend in with darker tile sets pretty badly.

Does this bother anyone else?

I wonder why it got deleted o.O
Well, I've seen it before but didn't think about it but I know (and now see) what you mean. In a certain angle they're harder to see, that's true. I assume this won't be the final version but if yes, allied colors could help? I don't know. To be fair, burrowed lurker are hard to see, too. Especially on Ground Zero (or Ash tilesets in general) - and yes, I'm a Zerg player myself ^^

edit: Hm... burrowed lurkers seem to be seen better now since they a greyish semi-circle on the top (can't really explain but it looks more 3D this way).

I posted it twice and it was deleted both times with no reason given so I dunno. I figure feedback like that would be helpful unless they're completely done with the new sprite designs.

And yeah I agree, using allied colors would improve it, but I'm just finding the dark grey they are using for the metal parts of their armor to be too dark. Should be fine, might just take some getting used to.

Those aren't the little portraits you see at the bottom are they?

Cus the 3 here are obviously painted in 2D. But in the footage they shared, the unit portraits are animated and thus must be in 3D.

Considering the video has the Battlecruiser with updated portraits, I presume those are concept art.

Maybe the portraits will be animated based on the 2D paintings. In the screenshots in the interview thread, the portraits look redone in that style.


Ah makes sense, thanks. It's cool looking at such skilled artist's concept art.

I don't entirely see why they couldn't be 2D and also animated. Perhaps it could be prerendered, for one?


Err, I mean that they couldn't have possibly had painted 2D images being animated since that's just ridiculous work.

Oh well they will fix that i guess. Marines are a little bit darker and burrowed lurker are a bit thin but if it's a problem they'll update it.

After being released and seeing it crumble to rise on the chinese side. Then to be back in Korea and now to be updated....

I'm so happy to see this game beeing birthed a 4th time.

Protoss Pylon explosion animation seems a bit overdone. Animation seems to take up too much space, and lasts a long time. Bright as well, and obscures the units near it. Don't really like the style of the explosion either, old style was better.

Overall the graphic improvements are good move though.

This happens in game, not that anyone would ever notice. Pretty sure it's so that her shield is never blocking her "healing light" regardless of her orientation.

The original concept art and renders of the medic had a syringes on her arm. It's cool to see that detail on the new sprite.
