I really hate it. I think I could deal with the bad model if the attack animation was cool, but it looks terrible.

And I'm not just trying to trash it. It just doesn't look powerful enough. It shoots a tiny missile that you can barely see and the effect on the warhound is minimal, like it doesn't actually have recoil in any significant amount. Make it look like a freaking autocannon or something. Big bang, big recoil and a fast projectile that explodes with a big hit. It doesn't have to be flashy, but I want it to feel like it is a weapon of war made for ripping mechanical units apart, not a gangly walker with a useless arm and a tiny missile launcher on the other arm.

Hells yeah, bro.
It looks like it is made from a junkyard instead of a factory. :/
If they change the design similar to a Gundam (RX-78) I'll love it to death.

When I initially saw the concept art I was not very impressed. Seemed like something borrowed right out of BattleTech, though a lot more spindly and fragile, especially in the legs which look not to be able to support the upper torso. Seeing the unit in-game though does feel a lot better (camera angle and animations go along way), but it's far from what I would expect from Blizzards Art team, especially the attack animations/particle effects, bland and uninspired.


Heh, for me it was the opposite way around, the picture looked okay, but the in game model looked horrible.

Make look sleek. Like the Goliath in SC BW.

NOT like the SC2 Goliaths though. Those Goliaths are lame.

I don't really like how the model is quite a shameless ripoff hommage to the Battletech Warhammer, one of the first and most iconic Battletech Mechs. First released more than 25 years ago one might add.

It doesn't look tough. It feels fragile. It does not fit into the lore of SC. Walkers were designed to intimidate. The walker design was explained as necessary from the usually uneven terrain which made track vehicles impractical.

Terran Dominion designs are macho and intimidating, the only exception was the Science Vessel. Everything else looked hardy and tough, even the SCVs.. The warhound looks like it could fall over just from the tremors of siege tanks firing.

I seriously wouldn't mind another tank unit. It's getting a little too sci-fi with the current warhound design.

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

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

I guess I'm in the minority here but I actually have no problem with the WH design, I think it fits the unit just fine.

I also like how it references the classical battle mech style as well, the radar on the top of it's head looks kinda dorky but aside from that I think it's cool.

They made them look different from the goliath because marauders, battle hellions, landed vikings and warhounds would have looked too similar, also they made the model very tall if you look at the video when they are with hellions.
With that said, this model is still ugly.

Agreed. It also uses the stupid looking hoof foot and is about 30% too big.

Of course, w/ 260 HP, it seems that its current iteration is wholly too large. They don't seem to have shrunk the Thor enough.
We're here! We're queer! We don't want any more bears!

if they need to copy from battletech, then they should not use the hunchback, but the atlas...

The easiest way to not make goliaths is... Reverse the weapon roles!!!
Have guns are AA flak guns and the missile is the anti-mechanical weapon.

Have more tracked units. seriously, it's getting retarded now that you've mentioned it.

I hate 2 things, the model basically has small hipps and the shield on one of the arms.

We need it to have a melee attack and still be strong vs. siege lines. *THAT* would be cool.
