So, Metalopolis is a pretty good map. Almost everyone can agree with that. But deep within Metalopolis likes a dark secret so sinister that very few people know about its existence. The map is... haunted.


[image loading]


So most of us have probably seen something like this before. The graphics glitch in a way and the textures are all funky. But what you didn't see...


[image loading]


Is the FACE right below the base. It kind of looks like the Adjutant (female looking robot) from the campaign, but still. It's a face! I couldn't even play right during the game because I was still in shock.


[image loading]


Here is another picture of it from the 6 o'clock position. The weird thing is that the face only appeared at my base and the 6 o'clock one. The other bases did not have it. Another weird thing is that after the game, I went to watch the replay and the glitch wasn't there anymore. I even created a game on the same map and no glitch. For me at least, these texture glitches last until I restart SC2.

So if you ever lose on Metalopolis, you know why.

That totally looks like the badguy in the Ultima series.

I get weird textures on occasion. Mine usually are the zealot textures for some reason. I think it's an issue with hardware acceleration and sc2.

I once got some weird blue/black dots in metalopolis aswell.

I think it is some kind of easter egg.

This happens to me sometimes. I change shaders/textures settings to something different and it fixes the problem.

I'm pretty sure the terrain turns weird when your system is overheating. I remember reading that from a blue on the Blizzard forums.

What graphics setting do you have? Have you altered any of starcraft 2's source files in any way? Was this a costume game or a ladder one?

Well it's a Texture bug where any kind of texture is used instead of the correct one. Looks rather weird mostly

Looks like the adjutant face to me, obviously just a graphic bug of some sort.
