EPTBlizzard is constantly raising the bar with their cinematics. I am always so impressed.

I still have pause in regards to the clan system and what it will end up being. One of the largest downfalls from my point of view was the absolutely abysmal system they put in place to make WoL not unlike the movie aliens where 'nobody can hear you scream'. Adding a clan system is a step in the right direction, but if they don't add the proper tools to help new players or players getting back into the game to find those things they'll end up being mostly meaningless. Hopefully they've learned their lesson but based on past interactions where they just don't seem to be 'in sync' with the community and extremely slow to react (see the map pool as a good example) I am a bit wary that they'll get it right this time. For TL: Great post awesome interview and preview. HoTS has the potential to really help some of the issues WoL had both in the multi-player and community scenes, here is to the hope they get it right. | ||

Those Blizzard fellers are real inventors, next I hear they will create some kind of circular device with a rotating axis that will allow for easy transport of comparatively heavy objects. | ||

If the campaign could have that feel... that would be great. Hopefully the story is better than WoL. HOTS is really shaping up to fix a lot of the issues WoL had, in the game and outside of it. Really excited for march. | ||

Yeah it's pretty childish, i know, but I'm actually looking forward to the leveling system xP Also Dustin Browder did a great interview. He seems like a smart and pretty down to earth guy after all | ||

But 100% not an Ultra A question: as this is not a zerg world, the Leviathan transported Lings/Banes/Hydras via Zerg-Pods. And how the Ultras? lorewise it is unexplained in the trailer... just curious lawl. Also strange that they already have a Nydus Network... which doesn't make sense but who knows, maybe KerrKerr already invaded another side of the planet so it could set itself up. LVU for the Leviathan, i didn't like the Ultra/lings scenes though. The beginning with the pods/Vikings/Behemoth is far better! And then fucking iconic Kerrigan swinging her leg fucking iconic on dat dead... something. More iconic than Madonnas whole career tbh. But seriously, Blizzard made a leap forward in the cinematics! Visually at least. The Zerg seem alive and it's hell to render 50.000 of lings on one screen. The Ultras only look good from the front, but not from above or behind... not zergy :D Augustgrad looked really good from above, 15/10 points for the visuals! Kerrigans speech is laughable as always but that's why we like her so much, don't we? Also... what did she mean with "at last in this world..." The end bothered me a bit. Not the fact that it was a dream, but that it portrays Kerrigan a bit weird. For people who don't know the storyline and already hated the "amnesiac" Kerrigan for being weak, insecure, this will give them the rest. I hope you got my point. TL;DR All in all my faith in HotS has not been destroyed and i applaud the Cinematic! when the pods drop units they are still in egg form. so the ultras just hatch from the egg just like the lings but they take a little longer than zerglings and hydras | ||
