Sorry, but why would you take the results of a poll that is biased towards a certain outcome into consideration? That does not make any sense...

I'm pretty sure 90% people reading this thread are intelligent enough not to change their mind by reading 2-3 sentences where I describe, what is this poll about and where I express my own opinion. Its a poll after all and you shouldn't feel in no way forced into any answer, concidering we are talking about unit design. It's about what you like and not. But I guess it's ok, several guys here can't bear this Star Wars refference, like it's hard to read "I like it, Mechwarrior ftw.." or just "I like it.". What is important is the expression of the comunity and I think this poll is good enough to make a picture..

I dislike the model, but even more than that I dislike the projectile it fires upon ground objects. It almost looks like a nailgun of sorts, but not in a nice way.

Agree. That rifle is not at all mech.

Dustin swallow your pride and use your SUPER AWESOME goliath model. Call it the warhound, dress it up, just don't waste your perfect unit model and animation. Seriously so depressed when i played with goliath in single player 
|
How about they keep its same attacks. Call it the goliath and change it to look exactly like the goliath and bam.
|
It needs to be builkier. It just looks flimsy at the moment.
|
It would be awesome if it looked semi-rushed/cobbled together. Considering that there are transformations for 'multi-role' units, i could totally see swanson going "oh shit thor broked, lets throw some missiles onto a random walking gun thing" :D
|
the design is such a rip off of BattleTech/MechWarrior its kind of sad/annoying 
|
it is probably the worst design of all time
it's just so so so so UGLY looking.
i can't think of an uglier design

Could you add this poll to your OP?
Thanks, I'm curious to know the results, since a few suggestions have come.
Poll: What should the Warhound look likeGoliath 2.0 ftw! (24) 62% Should have four legs, like a hound mech from WoL (4) 10% I like GUNDAMs (4) 10% It needs to look more sturdy/tough/menacing. (3) 8% A thor but more agile looking (3) 8% A tank is fine too (1) 3% It looks awesome! (0) 0% I'm not sure, looks okay I guess (0) 0% Super vulture inspired (0) 0% 39 total votes Your vote: What should the Warhound look like (Vote): It looks awesome!
(Vote): I'm not sure, looks okay I guess
(Vote): It needs to look more sturdy/tough/menacing.
(Vote): A thor but more agile looking

(Vote): A tank is fine too

That thing looks like an oversized SCV or something ripped straight out of Supreme Commander/Total Annihilation.

this one will also peck the ground like hounds do?
anyway, the only problem I have with the warhound's looks is that it's nothing like the battle hellion stylewise. these 2 new units weren't made by the same terran race. the contrast is absolutely ridiculous. what the hell is terran style now?
|
I hate how it looks and I don't get the "StarWars ftw". It doesn't look anything like SW imo.
|
Ya, for real.. just put those stats on a goliath ffs.. becaus eonestly, it basically is a goliath
If not, give it something better it is an epicly powerful unit
Seems to be another anti-protoss unit for terran though (As everything protoss has is merchanical).
They need something better to deal with mutalisks
mutas are instane against terran.

Not really. There's a reason word choice is so important and talked about in polling/surveying. Stuff far more subtle than this poll affect answers. This poll is EXTREMELY biased.
|
It looks weird, but it has a certain appeal with its awkward and ungainly gait. I also like how it shoots those visible missiles, seems like a lot of fun to mass up.
|
I think its attack looks stupid. Also it looks to skinnny. ;/
|
Just bring back the goliath... It fits practically the same role. Edit the stats to make it what you want. That model was hands down 100x better.
|
As far as looks, it's too tall and too skinny for my liking. Something that feels a bit thicker and rooted to the ground would look better imo. That's just how I feel mech should look.
As far as the idea...like it.
