I present the Starcraft Broodwar units as they are meant to look, in all their glory. I was watching ASL last night and agree with Artosis, SC:R reveals that details that we thought were different in the old blurry version. here are a few of mine.
- Zerglings run on two legs and actually have arms (which they raise above their heads? the same arms they use to attack.) I could be wrong, but are those 2 overhead just attack appendages and they have actual arms? Also makes sense that they run on 2 legs given that cracklings almost have a jerky hop run like kangaroos, if they had four, they would be smooth runners like cheetahs.
- lurker head is clearly hydra. but all his legs are on his back side, with only a
false appendage (like those in crabs) in the front
- ultralisk heads are insanely small. but those muscle-bound bods!
- No surprise for the terrans
- Find the Reaver eye! Nice detail
- Archons look overwhelming indeed
- And DAs look like... xenomorphs???

Damn, never realized Zerglings run on two legs, palmate, haha. Zerglings can swim perhaps one day. :O
Zerglings also have duckfeet.

I haven't played SCR in like 3 weeks, but did they change they way archons look?
Because that is not how they looked when I was playing, they were just a clunky ball of light.

Yeah I also remembered them having more smooth/smudgy edges. I like this one better than the image that was in my head.

how were they meant to look, in all glory? please, glorified fanart at most  i really wish we could have widescreen sd graphics but they aparently force 4:3 on those for no reason but to buy hd. well anyway the point is, when remaster 2 comes out in next 20 years, u can be sure theyll use same excuse to change art yet again, 4k is so small we had to fill in the detail for 40k! why are you guys so gullible. ofcourse casters and other ''mercs'' will say how much they love it, no esport shoudl ever have to go away! (but onyl if its remastered, right?) what a joke all of this is

What are you talking about??? I'm aware that there is commercial intent to SC:R, but I think OP and the rest of us here are only talking about how things look now that they are rendered in hd, like we can actually see the zerglings raised hands and webbed feet, etc.

By the way, this is just slightly off topic, but if that is how lurkers look, where are the spines and what is the mechanism in it spine attack while burrowed?
|
All I noticed is that there are way to less EN2 viewers.
|
This Archon looks amazing. This is not how it looks ingame though?
As far as is remember the new version looks like a glowing round ball.

Palmate Zerglings, omg, it's the most unexpected thing since a pilot of a turret.

I remember this. I knew it, Terran Imba, turret should cost 1 supply /s
Did Blizzard ever comment on this?

These units look nice. Good job.

I am 100% sure I'm not the only one who saw the Hydra like this

Spore Colony was the biggest imagination crusher for me. Looks completely different in HD than those blurry images convinced me of for so many years. Other than that, I join in with lings and hydras looking much different than I always imagined.

Any pictures? I hesitate to see them and destroy almost a couple of decade of mental image...

FuckMyLife, right? And look at that Hydra den! It looks like a fat mutalisk that decided to chill on the ground instead of flocking with the others. Damn SC:R, what are you doing to my childhood memories?!
