Wouldn't be surprised if they decided Thors didn't really deal with mutas correctly and then rushed this thing out because of blizzcon.

If it's gonna stay in the game, i'm sure it will get a sweeter model.
SC2 Archon needs "Terrible, terrible damage" as one of it's quotes.

sounds objective. your poll has a nice set of options too. im sure blizzard will listen

hahaha same reaction here.

Came in here to vote in earnest, then didn't and laughed on my way out after seeing the options and the OP's text. :p

The sooner you accept and embrace the obvious Warhammer influences in Starcraft, the better off you are. :D

Space Marines, Tyranids and Eldar, oh my.


What a brave move, do you feel justified now that you quoted an obvious troll? I mean, you come here, write a bunch of words, don't vote and then even admit you don't feel like voting because the pool didn't meet your usual standards? My intention was not to make a poll that would be put as an example of poll worth including into your final theses.. Now that I think about it I really should've included one more option like "Viper OP" so that people who really feel the need to say something trollish would just vote right there and not proceed to write something stupid absolutely not contributing to anything beside their egos..


I'm thinking he's just saying that'd he'd prefer a more objective, perhaps likert based, poll if we're going to show our collective opinions to Blizzard. Frankly, I think I'd agree. It would show a more serious and more mature expression of something some of us apparently feel strongly about.

I really hope what they showed isn't the final model. It would be a shame to have such an ugly unit walking around with my sexy rine/ruader ball

Why does Battle hellion look decent and WH is so ugly


hey man the battle hellion looks awesome, so i'm sure the same art team can make something that doesn't look like a plastic toy.

HOPEFULLY

edit:

HOLY SHIT LET'S GIVE TERRAN EVANGELIONS.
I would pay 20$ extra just for an Eva-02.

yes. lets have evangelions! :DD


You mean a mech unit that has a massive gauss rifle and go berserk, pouncing on mechanical units tearing them limb from limb while eating them for HP?

Used MS paint to remove the shield (why a shield for a unit with guns??) and the doodads on top. Now it just needs a missile pack.

edit: they should just reboot the goliath model imo

Seems the design team just slapped on enough attention to make it a not-copyright-violation Loki version. If that's the case, they should just make the right arm a shield arm (gundam/battle tech hybrid). Looking like a giant marine.

There is no oomph to this design. I personally prefer something a little bit sturdier with better armaments (have you seen the firing animation? horrendous).

[image loading]

Now, imagine three Phalanx CIWS on him. Something like 8 or 9 range with +Armored and a nice firing sound/animation. Give it a fast rate of attack (about on par with stimmed marines) and something like 4+4, 1 armor, and 160 HP for 125M/60G with 2.75 speed.



The shredder needs a bit of a re-design also. I would make it a burrowed unit until an enemy unit comes in range and then it unburrows and sends out pulses of damage (like a nova explosion). I also would have it affect friendly units & it would always be on. (Also would like to have it be able to hold position like a Lurker...would create a lot of excitement) That's for another topic though.
Thank you bureaucrats for all your hard work, your commitment to public service and public good is essential to the lives of so many. Also, for Pete's sake can we please get some gun control already, no need for hand guns and assault rifles for the public

I don't mind it nearly as much as the swarm host, Warhound doesn't look that bad tbh.

It looks extremely awkward. I agree it deserves a better model.

I honestly really like it, if any of you ever played Total Annihilation (possibly the best non-blizzard RTS imo) it would fit in perfectly there.

Maybe something more like this since it had ground and air weapon I can imagine it with Terran mech colors and more car polished armour plating and badges sprayed on it like old world war fighter planes.

In one of the panels, they said that some of what they showed was largely incomplete stuff they just threw together into something presentable. I'm really hoping the Warhound is one of those things. That's why I'm not really concerned about the attack animations. The art design is my biggest concern. It looks more like a jerry rigged scv/ gundam than a high tech military vehicle like a lot of the other terran units. I think someone said that they were hoping to make a lower tech looking unit to demonstrate the Terrans' haste and desperation to making new vehicles for their armies. Is that true?

i dislike it mostly because it's legs do not seem able to support the rectangular block it calls a body. it needs to be a bit stockier at least. also, warhound just makes makes it sound like a quadruped, the biped design makes it look very like a AT-ST (?) walker
