Actually the way the battle is handled seems rather stupid - especially the viking: "ooh, that guy just ignored several tank shots and stomped the machine; I better land down to fight it with my low calliber machine guns" wtf o_O Also - where are Thors. I want to see Thors because Tanks/Ultralisk scale is waaay different than in the game (unless these were Omegalisks which I seriously doubt). | ||

Trolled by blizzard, vikings are useless after an Ultralisk remax  :D :D I've already watched the trailer like 10 times, will watch for the first time today v0v cant wait for the campaign TBH. No demo for us?  | ||

The size of those textures is pretty small, so additional skins would likely fit on the same texture file (the same texture atlas). There wouldn't be a performance hit since the texture gets drawn anyways, a different skin just means that it gets drawn from a different sub-position in the texture file. The only performance hit with such a change could come if your ram is really small and can't handle the couple of megabytes of additional data, meaning you constantly have to reload stuff from the hard drive. Alright, thanks for clearing that up! my Ram is fine, for instance In Heroes of Newerth I started lagging so much when they added all the skins and new heroes, and I thougt it was because of bad coding (the optimized a lot of shit and performancewise its much better for me nowadays). this might be a cool add for casters | ||

Lol not that I found it out myself. Just read on another website. The people (apparently a group of Hungarians) who found it are pretty imba I gotta say. It's pretty much impossible to spot if you don't know what you're looking for.Source: http://s.163.com/13/0123/10/8LT9831I00314D0E.html + Show Spoiler [Easter eggs] + At 8 seconds and 18 seconds at the screen changes, there are pictures of people (supposedly the development group) partying. + Show Spoiler [At 8 seconds] + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/XBmNoFy.jpg) + Show Spoiler [At 18 seconds] + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/WhDkf5U.jpg) This is not fake by the way. I saw it for myself by pause/playing really quickly on the 1080p Youtube video. A bit freaky to be honest  | ||

Maybe because I'm not used that much in macroscale battles in StarCraft cinematics.

What's good for the game is not very good for the cinema. | ||

Dude the viking landing in front of the ultra was a really obvious (to me anyways) and humorous nod to how infamously bad vikings are on the ground. I loled anyways. I still can't get over the sheer quality of the cgi though, pretty crazy. | ||
