Yes, the new 2.0 model looks great. I don't believe the overall size of the carrier needs to be increased, but the design of the new carrier is better than the design of Blizzard's current carrier.
425-298 cumulative record in the beta. 49-26 record in retail. Account: Practice

Is it just me or is that a cartoon villain with a mustache and a big nose on the back of the carrier?


Tell that to blizzard and they might change the model to something else. If that shit goes live I'll be thinking of the cartoon villain all the time.

it's not just which model looks better. it's also about which model blends in with other in-game models better, blends in with the landscape, looks better with little interceptors coming out of it, has a size that is proportional to its power, and has a design that looks about right considering its size.

having a model that looks good doesn't mean anything. we can all agree that some models from movies look cool, but that doesn't mean that we should just copy/paste those models to SC2 either. same logic same concept.

If we use this new model Im not sure if many peoples computers will support 20 of those things with interceptors, its almost as big as the Mothership and they limit you too 1 at a time

Both are too similar (apart from the difference in size) to be any good...
When thinking about Protoss carrier I'm thinking along the lines of:

Too everyone referencing that artwork. Think about what it would look like as an ingame model. IIRC their was a part in the Blizzcon art panel about making the models clear and simple for easy recognition.

can't they just go back to the old sprite models?
3D models are cool and all, but honestly, how can your replace the nostalgic 8 faced sprites?

Wow. That first one is exactly how I would imagig the Protoss Carriers. The second picture gives me more a swarm feeling.

I like the concept art too, but thats the same carrier we have today

Its a bit different from the concept because the 3d model team (dont know the real name) has some freedom when translating the concept to the game engine.

The 3d model team has space to judge if the concept really goes well to 3d or not
Many units arent "exactly" the same as their original concepts, thats common.

I hope they improve the model to look more like GnaReffotsirk's 2.0 or more like the Concept

agreed. too bulky and intricate. A lot of people get carried away when designing something.
