I knew it would be at 100% after phase two. I think this was staged so that right when BETA ended they release something else to help people cling on to the new game. Video is AWSOME btw...

There will be more people pulling all-nighters on the 27th than ever before. The world will never have been so sleep deprived.

I'm pretty sure I wont sleep until I finish the campaign no matter how long that turns out to be, lol.

Anyone else notice the two first portraits of the male and female in the multiplayer are the characters shown in this preview? They probably have a good part as extras in the campaign.

Even if it is just a collage of action movie cliches, I'm really excited that an RTS game has made the commitment to a cinematic story. What gets me isn't even so much that that video is great, but that this could be the beginning of a really exciting time to be a gamer.

It's more or less in the lore as well.

From the starcraft manual found via: http://homepage.mac.com/cheethorne/Starcraft/zerghistory.htm

Again, the story of the Zerg could have ended with the Overmind trapped on planet of its creation, with millions of loyal creatures under its control, but that would not come to pass. A random event changed the lives of the Zerg and the galaxy forever. A group of migrating space born life forms passed through the star system where the Zerg lived and the Overmind detected their presence. Because the creatures were unintelligent, the Overmind quickly dominated their minds and forced them to approach its planet. The creatures had the ability to enter and leave an atmosphere easily and survive in space and the Overmind wanted to possess those abilities. The entire group of space creatures was killed and its genetic code assimilated by the Overmind. Within a short span of time, the Overmind created the original Overlord creatures that would allow the Zerg to escape their home planet.

Holy shit, do YOU know how much understaffing AND skipping school will occur at the 27th around the world?

It's like a global statistics corporation can actually MEASURE the amount of slacking off and downtime at different workplaces around the globe.. why?

Well, STARCRAFT 2 WAS RELEASED BABY!

I'm pretty sure you can see mutalisks in space if you play a game on scrap station. I'm not entirely sure why they flap their wings, though. Seems kind of redundant.

I don't know as if Raynor wants the dominion itself to fall, perhaps he would be satisfied if it was under leadership that wasn't oppressive. Based on Valerian's character in the Dark Templar Saga novels he would be a much worthier leader than his father. Perhaps he will assist Raynor in overthrowing Arcturus in some way.

Holy shit that was INSANE! It may just be the hype of the moment, but I think that this is the best trailer I have ever seen for a game. Unbelievable cinematics, great VA, and what looks to be an epic story that will eclipse the first. Kudos Blizzard for doing it again. Tuesday can't come fast enough.

Spoilers, for anyone who hasnt read the Dark Templar Saga, and was wondering who the blonde-haired rich kid was.

+ Show Spoiler +
"Space Arthas" (as my friend referred to him as) is Valerian Mengsk, Arcturas' son, who isn't necessarily known to the public but is the heir. He runs a lot of things in the background under the name "Mr. V" and set things in motion that brought the zerg out of hiding and brought more terran/protoss contact during the Dark Templar Saga series. He's not necessarily a bad guy when I say that, mind you.


Edit: Looks like people already gave away Valerians identity in this thread vv. Nevermind I guess.

It's returning Kerrigan back to being human for sure.

I would definitely have to say the guy with the dreads is Duran, no idea on who the girl is though.

I don't know as if Raynor wants the dominion itself to fall, perhaps he would be satisfied if it was under leadership that wasn't oppressive. Based on Valerian's character in the Dark Templar Saga novels he would be a much worthier leader than his father. Perhaps he will assist Raynor in overthrowing Arcturus in some way.

It's returning Kerrigan back to being human for sure.


I wouldn't be so sure. First off because that doesn't seem like something he would be able to do, and also because I wouldn't describe that as what he's "always wanted." He's been fighting for the same thing (liberty I guess) since before Kerrigan got infested, though maybe I'm being too literal.

Edit: girl kissing raynor: http://sc2armory.com/files/screenshots/393.jpg Ariel Hanson. I think she's related to that mission where your rescuing people on some planet from the zerg? more info would be cool.

ill quote 2 answers from youtube which are about right... dont know it more exactly either. both of em are new characters.

"The Black guy with the Rastas is Gabriel Tosh. He is a Spectre, a new type of Ghost"

"That's that Doc-chick who's gonna "help" Jim over the campaign... she is some sort of medical expert or something"

You're probably right. I'm just high on hype. Besides they wouldn't do that in the first game. There are too expansions after all. They would save it for last imo. If that ever happens ofc.

ITS not Duran. Its the Torsh or Tosh or something (I think the name was changed along the way, some legal issue). The woman was shown in one of the SP previews cant exactly remember what was her name but if you search for the mission where you have to transport some people she is there

Should instead of shouldn't. Maybe i'm just mistaken, but i played it over and over and i'm pretty certain Raynor asks why he should kill Mr V

I can't help but notice that the quality of the cinematics kinda feel comic-ish, in fact, the reveal trailer felt much more realistic. I don't know... I mean it felt epic, but in terms of quality, the WOW cinematics are much better IMO.

Actually it's VERY close to SHOULD.. but if you turn it up you can he the n't ending .. it's about vague tho... Raynor sorta lets the word slide abit too long.. but he says shouldn't... listen carefully :D

I think its because most of what was shown there was in-game cutscene 'cinematics.'

They really have gone to a new level over warcraft III on this one, and those were fantastic cinematics.

I'm just mad we don't get to see more protoss units in action. Honestly, colossus in cinematics = badass. Stalkers blinking in = badass. Mothership = mega badass. When do we get to see the badassness that's protoss!

If you've been keeping up with recent games for the past years. You'll know that graphics have improved so much that a lot of movies are done with in game graphics. Look at FF13, god of war and any recent game. Only certain parts of that trailer were from actual cinematics. If you've played WC3 single player campaign, it will be like that wehre there is only like 6-8 cinematics but a lot of the story will be told through in game movies. Remember how cheesy the movies they had in WC3 in between missions?

You do realize that a lot of the video is done with the in-game cinematic engine? That means it's being rendered with in-game models. The pre-rendered stuff is better than anything WoW has released in it's entire existence by far.

What's with the weird audio? Could barely understand what the heck they were saying.

Oddly enough, this almost has me interested in the story again. Almost... but not quite.

Well played. Anyways I dont really think of V. as being very similiar to Arthas in terms of personality, though I'll certainly admit they look very similiar. He was a pretty cool character in the Dark Templar Saga so I'm hoping they do some good stuff with him here, especially if it involves killing zerg with his sword.

I can't help but notice that the quality of the cinematics kinda feel comic-ish, in fact, the reveal trailer felt much more realistic. I don't know... I mean it felt epic, but in terms of quality, the WOW cinematics are much better IMO.


You do realize that a lot of the video is done with the in-game cinematic engine? That means it's being rendered with in-game models. The pre-rendered stuff is better than anything WoW has released in it's entire existence by far.


Have you seen the Wrath of the lich kind trailer? I think its still slightly more technical than this.

They really have gone to a new level over warcraft III on this one, and those were fantastic cinematics.

I'm just mad we don't get to see more protoss units in action. Honestly, colossus in cinematics = badass. Stalkers blinking in = badass. Mothership = mega badass. When do we get to see the badassness that's protoss!

Good lord I wasn't interested in the single player at all until now, I just want to sit and watch a feature length film of that right now..

Not experienced the chills this intense since the first time, and everytime I watch the ultimate comeback.

Guys just for the record..

85-90 % of the footage seen in this trailer is IN-GAME... yes.. that's right.. IN-GAME cinematics... which means the graphics are fucking awesome...remember that... the REAL CGI blows anything ever seen outta the water... Blizzard excels at this art... always has.. always will... think back to when WC3 was released... it blew everybody's mind..

And also.. stop questioneing the black dude as being duran.. it's not... it's gabriel TOSH... a mysterious black guy with ghost abilities it seems... wait to find out more :D


I FUCKING LOVE THIS GAME

This makes me feel bad for never playing the SC1 campaign. It also makes me want to play through it so I can learn the story - so these awesome SC2 trailers aren't just fancy cinematics, I actually know what's going on.

Question is though, is a week enough to complete SC1 if I've never really played it? :O

Amazing how uniform the praise is. Did I watch the same video? Graphics are nice, things look and sound familiar, but let's be honest: the writing is some of the worst ever. The trailer alone used every cliche and cheap plot mechanism known to man. I am not looking forward to the campaign based on this trailer and don't really understand why you all are. The writing is fucking infantile. Whoever's responsible (Chris Metzen?) is a hack.

p.s.

Not a troll.
You can figure out the other half.

As I've understood it, the in-game cinematics will actually make your graphics card work to produce them, in contrast to pre-rendered video(CGI) which is just a video and thus not taxing on your graphics card..

Am I wrong ? ;P

There are 3 types of graphics.

What an amazing build-up holy shit my excitement level for SC2 just went from 150% to 600% its sad when SC2 is literally all i think about at work. I don't think i have ever been this obsessed over a game in my entire 22 years of life. Surprisingly more obsessed than I ever was with WoW (back when it was a decent game).

I don't understand the general enthusiasm. This trailer looks like it was produced using a modified game engine and looks nowhere as good as a actual CG, like in previous Blizzard's game. I imagine the good thing is that this means they can produce cinematics much more cheaper and quicker and so produce more of them, but I hope this doesn't mean that there will be no "actual CG" cinematics in the game. That would be so disappointing.

Lol, I liked the whole trailer except for that clip. Why is it flapping its wings? Silly Muta, there's no air in space!

So, who do we think the revolution guy that gives Raynor his badge is? Just some random new person? Someone from Umoja?

Just went back to do that mission again in SC1. pfft I saved Kerrigan, I had a 200/200 mech army back at base when I killed the last protoss building

lol and ofc the moment the mission ended that army dissapears and kerrigan gets owned by the zerg anyway....nice try though ^____^

i did it w/a bc army 200/200 w/all bcs except kerrigan.....so it was almost fitting that the army dissapears

I wish I could be as enthusiastic as allot of you are, but the writing for this trailer was pretty darn awful. Hopefully the plot/writing for the actual single player campaign is better than a B rated Hollywood movie.

The marine teaser was alot better and previous trailers, of which Blizzard are renowned for, are in a different league.

Just my opinion.

I don't understand the general enthusiasm. This trailer looks like it was produced using a modified game engine and looks nowhere as good as a actual CG, like in previous Blizzard's game. I imagine the good thing is that this means they can produce cinematics much more cheaper and quicker and so produce more of them, but I hope this doesn't mean that there will be no "actual CG" cinematics in the game. That would be so disappointing.


hey genius, thats because most of the sequences ARE made with the game engine.
they cant do all of them fully rendered due to the fact that it takes too much time and money.

Indeed. It looked more cartooney than SC1 and the dialogue/voice acting was pretty bad for the most part... even in the trailer where you would expect the good lines. Bleh.

Here's some interesting, trivia-esque information. The voice actor for Tychus Findlay (who sounds like a total bad ass) is named Neil Kaplan and was also the voice of Optimus Prime in the old animated series Transformers: Robots in Disguise.

Does anyone see the pun / hint in the title of the video or was it just me. Ghosts of the past is a direct kerrigan hint because she was in the ghost program....

seems like way too much of a coincidence. Can't wait for the campaign now, these cinematics nearly rival that of Metal Gear Solid.

That is a really good trailer. Speaks nothing of gameplay and isn't the demo we all hoped for as a best case scenario, but it's well done.

You are missing the point

Trailers are not meant to be complex writings, they are meant to be "cheesy" and catch attention

I must've missed the part with the epic lines.

Hell, even Zeratul chimed in a corny line.

I'm sure the actual campaign script will be better though, SC1's dialog was pretty damn good for a game.

And what would you have him say?

trailers like this are supposed to catch attention and use epic lines

And I'm all out of bubble gum.

I thought that SC1 had a really tongue-in-cheek style, and I hope SCII doesn't take itself too seriously...

Yeah not too impressed with the trailer, graphics are good but not outstanding and story looks terrible. Still very anxious to play the game. Not expecting too munch of the single player so I hope I'll get a good surprise.

I second this to the point.


Indeed. It looked more cartooney than SC1 and the dialogue/voice acting was pretty bad for the most part... even in the trailer where you would expect the good lines. Bleh.


I'm with you guys. When I first played SC1 back in high school I thought the story/dialog were the greatest thing ever, but when I went back to play it again some years later I found that it didn't hold up so well. I was older when I first played WC3 and found it...let's just say "unconvincing."

Well, at least Blizzard can still make good multiplayer games. We've always got Bioware if we want a game with a real story and intelligent dialogue.

The trailer was a mix of Cinematic, in-game cut scene and game engine graphics. You can clearly tell what scenes were made with Galaxy Editor.

I don't know what all the hate is about: This is STARCRAFT FUCKING TWO PEOPLE. Four years have passed since the events of Broodwar, lets find out what the fuck is going down. I don't see how the story could possibly be bad. Has Blizzard ever let us down?

Notice the little message when you put your mouse over the video on the Dominion page? It says "criminal propagandist Michael Liberty". Michael Liberty is the protagonist in the first Starcraft novel. I wonder if he's a character in SC2.

Yeah I must admit this trailer is very good ! But maybe I got tired of fantasy stuff and every semi-sci-fi game/movie give me big nerd chills :o

I actually think the art in this Dues Ex trailer is higher quality, wow

BUT I think the voice acting in the SC2 trailer is superior for sure.

Wow the ingame renders are actually fucking amazing. And the script and voice acting have certainly gone up 10 fold in quality since SC1 and WC3, to COD4 levels.. This is great stuff!

Can't wait to play, even if my computer is almost falling apart, even if my internet is laggy as hell, even if I don't have money to buy it anytime soon (should've been saving eh? Well, can't say I didn't see this coming), but there's always my FRIENDS house to jump at and spend all the time needed to finish the campaing and get a taste of the multiplayer.
Finally. Hell, it was about time anyway.

Seriously, is this because she's more bad-ass or you think Ghost Kerrigan was more of a feminine-looking character? (And my mind keeps telling me that Ghost Kerrigan's got some anime/loli-ish features.

Eh, I'm going to be optimistic and say that the dialog here was just for hype's sake. I think overall it will probably be better. But yeah, it's damn typical and cliche of action movies, or anything with a struggle. One thing I enjoyed was the dialog between characters in the first game at the beginning of each mission. It set everything up and gave insight into each character. Now we have more visuals to do all that, but hopefully they keep the dialog conveying the story, not just there because people talk.

I don't know as if Raynor wants the dominion itself to fall, perhaps he would be satisfied if it was under leadership that wasn't oppressive. Based on Valerian's character in the Dark Templar Saga novels he would be a much worthier leader than his father. Perhaps he will assist Raynor in overthrowing Arcturus in some way.

It's returning Kerrigan back to being human for sure.


Valerian could be mistaken in what he thinks Raynor whats. Mengsk fought against the Confederacy under the guise of a freedom fighter but was actually wanting to get power. Valerian could be assuming what Raynor is after is same thing. Just thinking.

Wow, I was just blown away by that! I’m almost speechless. Never seen something so . . . for lack of a better word, Epic.

I expected this game to be amazing, and totally couldn’t wait for it. But after this trailer I’m looking forward towards the single player even more. Something I didn’t really think possible.

There were so many amazing parts in the trailer, but I think my favorite was the part with Zeratul and the bit with Tosh uncloaking. But the whole thing was astonishing.

And some of the new characters look surprisingly interesting. I admit to being a bit skeptical of some of the new additions. However after this trailer I think the new characters will do just fine. I hope we get to see a little of Blizzards trademark betrayers though.

Not long until the game’s coming out. It’s going to be wicked.

I am in the midst of replaying the campaigns of the first two games and I have to say, it is amazing how bare bones the story is (not a bad thing, just the essentials). SC2 is going to be in a whole other league when it comes to story and immersion and for someone like me who love a good sci fi plot (especially the SC universe) it will be pure gaming bliss (or should I say blizz?)

I'm hoping there's context that makes that line less cringe worthy.

wow... That was epic. I almost think its a movie trailer .

Its crazy this will be the first RTS game that I will actually play through the campaign as it looks like it will be actually good! (in sc1 I just got into that may of last year and that was for multiplayer purposes never played the campaign ).

Can't wait for the game just a few more days, getting the game at midnight, playing a ton, next day, repeat the process :D

1:45, at first glance it appeared as if Raynor had a Zerg insignia on the right shoulder of his armor...

[image loading]

However after further research I found this image, which clearly shows it as the skeleton of a snake. Anyone have any insight into this? Or is it just Raynor being a badass?

Mutalisks, in space!


I'm pretty sure in a sc1 cinematic you could see some mutalisk in space, don't remember exactly.

Think it's mainly Guardians and Devourers in those scenes


I'm pretty sure you can see mutalisks in space if you play a game on scrap station. I'm not entirely sure why they flap their wings, though. Seems kind of redundant.

Cuz flapping = looks sick

Anyways, this trailer was amazing. Nice CG work. AHHHHHH LONG LIVE THE SWARM!!

I think the people who are saying this looks like some cheesy action movie trailer are sort of missing the point. It's meant to look like a cheesy action movie trailer. All the tropes. That's what they were shooting for.

Cheesy action movie trailer-launched RTSes ftw.

To be fair, they threw all of the cheesy lines into the video. Throughout the game which will last many many hours, these lines will all be spread out so it won't feel as bad.

When I heard that Valerian can offer Raynor what he's always wanted, the first thing that popped into my mind is bringing Kerrigan back to human form. I'm sure people have already mentioned that in the topic. Sounds a bit cliche? Probably not since this is just the Terran campaign and I can't imagine them already doing this in the first game right before Heart of the Swarm. Unless.. hmm.. we'll just find out I guess.

Not Sure If anyone else has pointed this out but at 2:21 Seconds there is a black haired chick making a move on Raynor.... This makes me mad! his romance with Kerrigan has fueled so much with this game! It was almost the hing that made our hearts ache as She was left on that god forsaken space platform... It is a bad day... What has blizzard done....

Avatar was full of cheese and story line was soo old - yet it became the highest grossing movie of all times over 2 billion $$$ - so yeah maybe some lines r cheesy, but it was well presented and im sure the story is worth it.

Valerian probably has a DNA potion that will transform Hydras into urban sophisticates, lings into Broadway chorus-line dancers, and Kerri into a daytime chat-show host and/or reality tv star.

If the entire campaign for Wings of Liberty ends up being rebels vs government I sincerely hope Kerrigan shows up and destroys all Terran. I'm tired of boring political storylines between humans and Jim Raynor's love interests - I want more epic Tassadar (if I remember correctly) crashing into planets!

And has anyone mentioned the Xel'Naga in the thread yet? I remember watching an interview with a SC2 developer saying how they had lots of bonus units for campaign use only - my lifelong dream (yes) has been to play that race.

Am I the only one who never really thought there was a romance between Jimmy and Sarah? Sure, there was a buttload of sexual tension, but that doesn't really mean anything. Of course he would be choked up that Arcturus left her to be overrun by the Zerg, but that was probably for a number of reasons.

hahah sick ass trailer, It made me think about changing my order to a special edition pack xD

My ONE question for ANYONE is what the hell is the blurred out thing in the very last scene of the trailer?!


Looked like an empty casing from that BIG ASS SNIPER rifle raynor was holding.

If the entire campaign for Wings of Liberty ends up being rebels vs government I sincerely hope Kerrigan shows up and destroys all Terran. I'm tired of boring political storylines between humans and Jim Raynor's love interests - I want more epic Tassadar (if I remember correctly) crashing into planets!

And has anyone mentioned the Xel'Naga in the thread yet? I remember watching an interview with a SC2 developer saying how they had lots of bonus units for campaign use only - my lifelong dream (yes) has been to play that race.


It's called Wings of Liberty, so yes, the majority of the campaign is about overthrowing Mengsk. Of course by doing so, Raynor will be able to unite/lead the Terrans for the coming conflict with the Zerg.

I don't know if you remember, but the Terran campaign of Starcraft 1 was basically about helping Mengsk overthrow the Terran Confederacy so this would mirror that nicely.

One thing I wonder if they'll ever address is Earth/UED. Broodwar made it clear that Earth was much more powerful than the Terrans of the Koprulu Sector, since the UED fleet was so powerful that Kerrigan had to join forces with Mengsk and the Protoss to defeat them.

Earth/UED would also have had 4 years to rebuild and study their opponents. I wonder if a new UED fleet will be involved at all in Starcraft II.

Earth/UED has no idea what happened at Brood War events, but there are UED survivors left after Kerrigan invasion

How come? Actually how long did it take for the colonists to travel there from earth? I'm also assuming communications would be a bit faster... than 4 years?

A+ on the cinematography as always.

D- on overwrought dialogue.

I wasn't too pumped for single player. But now we're starting to see some substance after all the secrecy behind the campaign and all of Blizzards big talk.

Blizzard has always done great CG cinematic trailers, I was sure they will do the same this time as well. Then again, one of my favorite CGI trailers of all time was for HG:L, and yet the game itself was really bland. Not saying I expect anything bad from the campaign, but epic trailer hype has been known to disappoint before.
I'm going to sleep, let me get some of that carpet.

Mutalisks, in space!


I'm pretty sure in a sc1 cinematic you could see some mutalisk in space, don't remember exactly.


Of course they have to be able to fly in space. How do they invade other planets otherwise? ;o They are supposed to be a threat for the entire universe right? Going for the homeland of the protoss etc.

Great trailer!

I may get flamed for this, but i can only speculate that everyone that thumbed it down and said it was cheesy and cliche'ish doesn't realize that in life, you do have to fight for things. And they are worth fighting for. Whether you're fighting for your country, or standing up for your little brother from the bully down the street. Whether you're helping a loved one through an addiction, or protesting the destruction of a rainforest, or trying to send relief supplies to a war-torn country, you do have to fight. It's HARD. It SUCKS. But it's totally worth it. That's why most of us get totally nerdgasm'd up watching this. It reminds us of the struggle in our own lives, a struggle that seems daunting and unwinnable at times, but because we love our family, friends, or our cause, we do it. That's why Raynor is such a simpathetic character. He's a regular dude, called upon to do great things, much like most of us are pretty "normal."

Just sit back and enjoy. I don't ever get tired of "romantic ideal" characters when the treatment is done right. It is fiction after all...

So you're suggesting that those who are not excited aren't because they got spoonfed everything in their lives and never had to fight for anything? Quite a theory you got there.

I can say for myself that I don't much like the line, but not because it's wrong, but because it's so trivial. There are things worth fighting for. O RLY? Yes, there are, so? Yawn. There's just nothing original about it. It's all so ... generic. Like the guy above said, it's Team America without the humor. Would be nice to see something by 2010 that couldn't have been there in exacly the same way 1990 or 1980 (except the CG of course, which looks more like ... 2005).

I had multiple nerdgasms, thank god nobody at work saw me watching that video. THEY JUST WOULDNT UNDERSTAND!! I will finish the campaign before I do anything else in SC2, it was just that amazing.



To the people who find it generic, it's video game writing we're talking about here... It's as good as it gets.

People thumbs it down because the writing is worse than Catwoman, whether it wants to or not. There is no way the writing can be this horrid and the trailer-structure so dumb if it was meant to convey an actual message. It's a joke - a spoof. But it's a generic spoof that adds nothing to the hundreds of similar spoofs on this type of trailer. Therefore it's hard to get worked up about. It's reminiscent to "Meet the Spartans".

Fortunately, the quality of the actual gamepart of the SP-game (the SP missions) is rumored to be quite high.

Now I may not know much about anything. But I do know that there is a war out there. It's a war that's in the heart of every man, woman and child. A war that many have fought and died for.

From the creators of 'a dude with an opinion', comes the biggest, baddest fanboy of them all.
Some called him crazy. But he was just an ordinary guy trying to fight to keep the world he knew and loved from the brink of destruction.

But there was something 'the haters' didn't count on. Sometimes, no matter the cost. No matter how large and insurmountable the goal. There's some shit that just an't gonna stand.

What did you expect?

Raynor revealing the secret to the meaning of life? Mengsk writing a book on philosophy of warfare?

What messages and one-liners do you really want that would fit in this universe in this trailer better than others?

the answer you're looking for is: NONE.

Why?

Because the "cheesey" lines as you call them are true... they make sense... that's why they are repeated for a reason... only they are repeated in the context in which they fit and appear.. e.g. in Starcraft 2... the lines tie in with raynors struggle.. and the entire previous story...

Avatar... highest grossing movie of all motherfucking time,.... story isnt even half as good as starcraft... and there are one-liners all over... so what? Who the fuck cares?

Who wants the main character to sit down in the midst of battle and go... "gee guys.. lets think this through abit... i'm in the philosophical corner right now... gimme some space y'all?"


NOBODY :D

Just roll with it dude... it's what people want... and it works... it's awesome... denying it is just arrogance and stubborness because your angry and jealous over the fact that you cannot seem to enjoy wht others enjoy to the same extent.. your life is SHALLLOW.. find your happiness

You know how long it takes and how much it costs doing a full CGI video over 2 mins long? If they did that then this video would be done after the game had released.

Great trailer!

I may get flamed for this, but i can only speculate that everyone that thumbed it down and said it was cheesy and cliche'ish doesn't realize that in life, you do have to fight for things. And they are worth fighting for. Whether you're fighting for your country, or standing up for your little brother from the bully down the street. Whether you're helping a loved one through an addiction, or protesting the destruction of a rainforest, or trying to send relief supplies to a war-torn country, you do have to fight. It's HARD. It SUCKS. But it's totally worth it. That's why most of us get totally nerdgasm'd up watching this. It reminds us of the struggle in our own lives, a struggle that seems daunting and unwinnable at times, but because we love our family, friends, or our cause, we do it. That's why Raynor is such a simpathetic character. He's a regular dude, called upon to do great things, much like most of us are pretty "normal."

Just sit back and enjoy. I don't ever get tired of "romantic ideal" characters when the treatment is done right. It is fiction after all...


People thumbs it down because the writing is worse than Catwoman, whether it wants to or not. There is no way the writing can be this horrid and the trailer-structure so dumb if it was meant to convey an actual message. It's a joke - a spoof. But it's a generic spoof that adds nothing to the hundreds of similar spoofs on this type of trailer. Therefore it's hard to get worked up about. It's reminiscent to "Meet the Spartans".

Fortunately, the quality of the actual gamepart of the SP-game (the SP missions) is rumored to be quite high.


In the end, the so called "joke" was a great success : It motivated tons of nerds to play the SP and tons of others to buy the game. The trailer served that purpose and did it. (And I think the trailer is awesome).

As much as this trailer was awesome (and yes it was amazing) I don't see how you can possibly give that much depth into an RTS game's storyline. If it was an FPS I could understand but RTS is a "disconnecting" from the characters and storyline and is more focused on the actual gameplay then anything else. Brood War was really about as in depth as you could get in terms of story.

I would see this movie though

Great trailer.

But spotted a continuity error already.

Kerrigan takes off her headset with her left hand.

In the next shot, she drops it from her right hand.

doh.

Sorry, but that's bullshit

Why is it impossible for an RTS game to give a great storyline? Moreso it would be even MORE compelling and interactive than an FPS game, because it lets you get a bigger picture and interact with the environment in different ways....

In Starcraft 2, you are not disconnected from the characters in any way... you get to play INGAME, you get to play out of the battlefield, inside the hyperion.. walk around with jim raynor and others... talk to all... listen to news... watch planet info... watch stuff and do stuff while not doing missions.. on top of that.. there is cinematics and ingame cinematics..

how is this not BY FAR alot more in depth than ANY game ever released virtually? and certaintly Starcraft 1...

While I don't totally agree with Spenguin, I definitely disagree that an RTS could be 'more compelling' and 'interactive' — controlling large armies is so much more detached and impersonal than controlling one single identifiable character, as you do in an RPG or FPS.

I sure hope Blizzard doesn't use the game engine to render all of the campaign videos... but I guess there will be so many videos since there are so many missions, so they have to make many of them in the game engine. Hopefully a few will be fully CG though.

This video mixed CG + in game and it annoys me... definitely worse graphics than the CG in Diablo II. However if it's just a trailer, it's a pretty damn good one.

But that's the point in Starcraft 2. You DON'T actually ONLY control large armies. You get to control heroes, single types of people who are in the story ON the battlefield. PLUS you get to interact with these characters only OUTSIDE of the battlefield.. in the STORYMODE campaign aspect of the game, which is totally different from the battlefield large army stuff.. so you see... RTS can be just as rich on story and depth as any other genre can.. just takes quality and professional people with good ideas to do it. And Blizzard fits the bill perfectly.

Most definitely not, I don't see how an RTS game can bring a player into its own world. However I did forget the interactive parts that you mentioned (hyperion scenes etc.). So maybe that will bring the player into the world of Starcraft 2, however I still believe that RTS gameplay (read: top-down view, constantly mining, macro) is not a factor that will bring a player into the games own world but instead forces the player to be constantly thinking about macro, micro, defending and attacking that the story won't have the time to get across.

I haven't played a game in 12 years of quite avid gaming which I enjoyed the story of more than starcraft.

Resistance fall of man was pretty good, I enjoyed the narration and it was set in the UK which is a rare pleasure. But even story heavy games like dragonage and mass effect have not captured my imagination like SC did . But then I was about 16-17 when SC was released so maybe it was just the last great game I played as a child.

My all time top games ever are:

StarCraft+BW
Myth: TFL + SB
FFVII

I am a sucker for a well told story!

I wish it was Tuesday already.

We could speak about the same idea on FPS, i mean all that controlling around and aiming and fulfilling objectives and dying in one spot over and over until you find the way around it, maybe on an RPG isn't that notorious but also having to decide whether you should cast magic, summon, heal, attack, switch etc. i believe its independent to how in depth someone can actually get when multitasking, i mean half of the macro i do is mechanic the other half is based on reacting and once my brain notices and reacts it makes more mechanic actions which i am not fully operating as they are mostly automated, micro ... all games micro in a certain way of their own, and a second factor that lets you actually take a good deep jump into the story is how well it is told in an RTS for example is how it is told by briefings, objectives, in-game events, in-game cinematics, debriefs and more things i could list, that are not only part of the RTS genre but a part of videogames themselves. So getting a deep experience based on a genre is only circumstantial to the player ^^.

You realize the campaign won't just be spawning at a base and destroying the other player's base just like ladder is? Blizzard has said(I don't remember where) but there is going to be a variety of gameplay such as the part of the campaign they showed a while back before beta started. Also you get to pick your mission paths from between missions from inside the hyperion so it will not at all have the player constantly thinking about "macro, micro, defending and attacking."

Remember tho, that eventho this is semi-realistic game world, it is.. in fact just a sci-fi fantasy whatever game...

There are no lasers in space too, are u going to complain about that too then ?

It would make movies like star trek and star wars and basically any other space movie suck.. because the effects of reality is simply impossible in space films.. Space is very VERY cold, there is no sound.. and no light.. becauuse there is no reflection... so big explosions and big lasers are NOT possible... since there is no oxygen and no light/audio waves present to travel in any medium in space...

just a fyi

If all goes according to plan I will only have 2 and I'm not going to open the collectors edition. All three, unopened, might be worth something someday. Especially if SC2 really does manage to kick off esports big time.

maybe.

If not they will look good on display in my lounge

I liked the trailer, though dialogue was pretty hit or miss. Awesome work overall.

Now that I think about it, wasn't Kerrigan abandoned on a space platform? Why would it look like a surface of some dusty planet and why would she take her headgear off?

Anyone wish they would make a movie out of Starcraft?

It'd make Avatar a joke seriously ...

OMG, my eyes are watering, heart overpumping this is an absolute perfect trailer.

I just want to play the single player campaign right now. The story is wicked sick, amazing, perfect. This is what I wanted from the campaign!

They did an outstanding job for the campaign, the artists, screenwriters, cinematic guys, music guys, its mindblowing!

Hell Yeah!!!

She takes the headgear off because the writers watched the Final Fantasy movie:

thats the Deus Ex: Human Rev trailer and its just as epic


I actually think the art in this Dues Ex trailer is higher quality, wow

BUT I think the voice acting in the SC2 trailer is superior for sure.



I have to agree I like the voice acting of the SC2 trailer as well

Most definitely not, I don't see how an RTS game can bring a player into its own world. However I did forget the interactive parts that you mentioned (hyperion scenes etc.). So maybe that will bring the player into the world of Starcraft 2, however I still believe that RTS gameplay (read: top-down view, constantly mining, macro) is not a factor that will bring a player into the games own world but instead forces the player to be constantly thinking about macro, micro, defending and attacking that the story won't have the time to get across.


We could speak about the same idea on FPS, i mean all that controlling around and aiming and fulfilling objectives and dying in one spot over and over until you find the way around it, maybe on an RPG isn't that notorious but also having to decide whether you should cast magic, summon, heal, attack, switch etc. i believe its independent to how in depth someone can actually get when multitasking, i mean half of the macro i do is mechanic the other half is based on reacting and once my brain notices and reacts it makes more mechanic actions which i am not fully operating as they are mostly automated, micro ... all games micro in a certain way of their own, and a second factor that lets you actually take a good deep jump into the story is how well it is told in an RTS for example is how it is told by briefings, objectives, in-game events, in-game cinematics, debriefs and more things i could list, that are not only part of the RTS genre but a part of videogames themselves. So getting a deep experience based on a genre is only circumstantial to the player ^^.

I sure hope Blizzard doesn't use the game engine to render all of the campaign videos... but I guess there will be so many videos since there are so many missions, so they have to make many of them in the game engine. Hopefully a few will be fully CG though.

This video mixed CG + in game and it annoys me... definitely worse graphics than the CG in Diablo II. However if it's just a trailer, it's a pretty damn good one.


CG worse than DIABLO II? not really i think actually its their best CGI made by blizz and maybe by most companies..... cgi + in game isnt bad it gives you a taste of all the ideas in the game but u got something right its an awesome trailer :D

Check out the E3 Star Wars Old Republic CGI and compare it to this one. Then check out the Act II CGI from Diablo II, it's actually still pretty f*cking epic.

Their (hopefully) not rolling out all the most epic bits of CG for this trailer I'm sure they will blow us away with the CG in the game as always.

sigh i cant afford my self more than 1 (CE that i already orderd) maybe 2 in a couple of weeks for me and my wife but i agree an un opened box of CE will be worth in a few years if they did actually just released a couple of copies if they keep them in production well they will make it to the trophy shelf

I'm thinking the same exact thing because I want every detail about the original campaign fresh in my head for when I start this one.

Blizzard just needs to write some epic SC movie for the big screen. 2 hours of SC bliss and badass CG.

And no the voice acting is not b-movie level, but its not oscar worthy either. What is sure is that in games level its A+

I'm pretty sure it's the same voice actor as in the original game. (Robert Clotworthy.) It probably just sounds different because he did the first Starcraft game like eleven years ago or something.

I'm surprised a good amount of nerds here have such a pragmatic and critical view of things like this. I suppose it's unavoidable. Kinda like if you listen to enough sports talk radio, where the "fans" bash their team 3x more than cheering for them (sometimes more lol). I believe that most nerds are like me and have a "romantic" view of not only games but life in general. We want to see classic good vs. evil, unwinnable fights, and unbeatable odds be overcome. We will have a great time playing this game regardless of whether the writing is "from 1980." If you want to be technical, many of the concepts here and those we live by are ANCIENT, from things like the Bible, etc. There's nothing wrong with that.

If you don't like the writing, it's cool. But it's not going to stop 99.9% of us from playing and loving the SP.

How is hyperspeed possible?

Good vid but not awesome. -.-

@I agree with Fischer, that one deserves about 13/20 the song is the good part, but it doesn't fit much the vid in some parts. At some times looks like they put the music on top of the vid without any thinking. At other time it fits nicely, when he is picking the white face from the ground, and when he's shown from above in the rain.

Wraiths don't land. To keep them lightweight and maneuverable their landing gear was removed. Terran engineers figured it wouldn't be necessary, considering the little bastards might as well be made of paper anyway. Gotta keep costs down.

According to IMDB it is Clotworthy as the voice for Raynor again.

Can't get over how badass this trailer is though. It really does have more of a movie feel to it then a video game and I like that.

However for all those who like to find weak spots:

If Raynor aims same "colt" once on Mengsk in TV and sencond time on Valerian how he can hold it in full armored marine glove ha? I think I got ya Blizz

P.S.

Jimmy looks like a BAD ASS DARK KNIGHT in that black marine armor.

I think it (just like clips from the New Gettysburg cinematic) aired at Blizzcon, and not really "officially" released online.

Mass Effect 2 cinematic fall way short of the awesomeness of SC2 and Deus-Ex.
Between Deus-Ex and SC2 its a tie.

Yeah this video is like a movie. Kinda makes me wonder how the game itself is gonna feel.

I'm so hyped for it, keeping it cool for me moment until I start to experience the awesomeness

Absolutely agree with tie between awesomeness of Deus-Ex and SC2 video
As much as I like ME1/2 it didn't stand close to this...

Zerg have always had the ability to fly in space. They wouldn't be very good at conquering the universe otherwise. Call it a genetic mutation

Actually this is explained in SC1 manual, Zerg took over genes from some kinda species that were able to fly in vacuum

I was under the impression it was Little Mengsk, I heard he will be an important character in Wings of Liberty. Don't quote me though, I could be very, very wrong.

Considering it looks pretty certain the Xel'naga are coming back(both from the hacked game files and the Duran stuff at the end of BW) I think the story is moving foward.

It is a little weird that they're revisiting Kerrigan's abduction and infestation in the cinematic, but I'm more inclined to think they're just doing a bit of filling out of what was a very bare bones SC/BW plot to set up the story arc of SC II. Much like what they've done with Warcraft in recent years.

Jim raynor is gonna kill Kerrigan in this game, and Heart of the swarm will be the return of the Overmind. A guy can dream can't he?

Also, I just realized at the end, that shell slamming into the ground, GAH SO EPIC.

Mark my words, Kerrigan is gonna save everyone from Xel'Naga with her Zerg swarms and eventually die. My intuition never lies.

Even though the trailer looks awesome, I think I won't buy it. And I can't see why I should with this fucking license agreement still unchanged.

Come on, are you really willing to buy 3 games to play with your buddies from USA, Asia and Europe? You could do that already like 12 years ago, why claiming a charge for it now?? 180 Dollars or so to play a video game with your friends from Korea and USA? What other game claims this ridiculous amount of money?

Blizzard really arsed people this time. And I can't see me rewarding them for that, no matter how cool the cinematics are. It's a matter of principles. They just can't do anything they want with customers, or shouldn't be able to.

the second game being a prequel isn't so farfetched. Obviously blizz knows how it ends already so speculation won't change things now. What's going to suck is that we will probably get a cliffhanger ending to WoL, to which we will then nerdrage our opponents on battle.net. ^^

I hope they plan for a quick turnaround ala the Matrix trilogy, for the sequels. Two years or more between sequels will kill us hungering for the end of the story. The reason i'm not terrimad at the guys at bioware for making us wait for mass effect 3 is SC and FF taking my attention.

I still fail to see how people who actually think about this feel like being ripped of and SC2 isn't worth its money. If that would be the case than I don't see any other game out there being worth it. Not even free games ;P

But hey if you can live with not playing this game okay. I'll have fun with my full game including an epic campaign, BNet (kinda epic ), multiplayer, map editor and so on.
And on top of that I can expect 2 Add-ons which would've come anyways. Why would I care about the date they announce those?

? How does this affect my argument in any way?

I'm in Europe, so how does this "Sea Version" help the customers over here out? Or did I understand the whole thing wrong, if so I apologize.

Why do you have to buy a game for every realm anyway, if you NEVER had to ("people gonna buy it anyway, so we can do what we want with additional charges")?! This just drives me insane! Nobody even mentioned this issue one single time in 600 answers. Everybody's like "Oh I'm so buying that". I think this issue should get way more critical feedback, like in Korea.

I just don't understand why everybody is compaining a bit, but accepting it in the end. It could get a real trend in the gaming industry..."first time somebody paid 180 dollars to play a video game in the internet like every other game..why don't we charge that for our game as well?"

If this really works, I'll just wait for the day where you have to pay this ridiculous amount of money for EVERY better game.

Or am I so wrong?

Well, that high latency shit.
The same thing we had in BW and it was perfectly fine. We could train with everyone, no matter they were. Now this realm restriction feels like im in a ghetto. If i purchase the EU i'll be able to play only against europeans, which is bad coz 80% of my friends are from Korea or NA. If i wanna train for some tournament i'll just play europe, and if i wanna play some fun games with my friends i can play them even on a higher latency.

If they don't allow cross regional play just coz of latency, then their argument is very very weak. If technology doesn't allow us to play with minimum latency on all of the server, it's ok, some day we will be able, but no need to FORBID cross-realm play.

Unless it's about money, than it is a whole different story (right Activision?)

I have to admit I almost lost my interest in Starcraft 2. Too many times I saw videos, screens, played games... but "Ghost of the past" with sounds from James Cameron's Avatar trailer hit me. Kerrigan... I still remember mission when this happened to you...

WC3 had a better campaign and story then SC by far.

I'm going to second this, but I feel that the SC2 trilogy is setting itself up to blow RoC and TFT out of the water. And WoW has succeeded in butchering the Warcraft story in my opinion, so SC may very well move forward and be Blizzard's best.

I would agree with this also. WoW killed WC3 so so much . And what they're doing with the SC2 campaign looks amazing.

Joke post?

The cinematics department at blizzard cannot pack up and just start working on the gameplay for SC2. Bummer huh?

I know we only got like six seconds of footage, but Prince Valerian reminds me a lot of Ozymandias from the Watchmen movie. Super calm, seems a few steps ahead of everyone else, maybe very subtle belittling of others, or at least acting all like "oh yeah I totally knew you were gonna do that, but you're an idiot cuz I already have a plan for that"

Maybe it's just me, but I'll be interested to learn more about this char.

edit. beware, there's a video out that gives away the ending to SC2. I reccomend staying away from sc2 related forums if you want to be as sure as possible you won't have the end spoiled for you.

Wonder if we're going to have DARK VOICE in SC2 :D

That would be epic.

Holy mother of God, this video is mind-blowing. I would love to see a movie produced by the Blizzard CG staff some day. :D
I just love video games, what's your excuse?
