EPTIt sounds like the cry and attack sound of a long range unit to me. Thoughts?
Blizzard shares a new SC II sound file - New Unit?

Blizzard does tend to like giving units some extra stayability and/or buildability when later-game hits. They're treating this much better than they treated units like the Scout in BW, for example. | ||

Couple that with the weapon we hear and it seems much more likely to be a Reaver. The sound near the start is Day[9]'s overlord impression, that's probably why folks think it's a zerg unit. But clearly it's not just a zerg unit, because there are explosiony, techy sounds as well. Hybrid seems possible, but I'm hoping it's a sound from one new unit of each race (and I'm hoping it'll be Reaver / Lurker / something cool). EDIT: Actually, maybe I hope that there won't be a reaver ever in SC2. The thing that made the Reaver exciting was the utter randomness of scarabs bugging out and the huge damage potential (plus the exciting micro). I think Bliz would rather have a more consistent Reaver...which would make it horribly overpowered, were it to retain the micro potential and huge damage. So damage would get nerfed...to the point where it wouldn't be as exciting. Considering the slightly absurd investment, mid-game Reaver harass will never be viable in SC2 (unless Bliz overhauls the game so that defenders have a more significant advantage). It'll be a late-game tool, which means it won't be as exciting. Or, it'll be part of the deathball. | ||

And then they decided to just not bother with changing the SH to its original purpose with how the metagame developed. | ||

I don't think it's a reaver-like unit, it sounds like artillery to me. Right after launching, there's a "projectile going out of a cannon" sound that doesn't work with reavers. This sound effect only makes sense if launching projectiles and dropping projectiles are VERY distant in time. Guys, this is a full seven seconds! It's almost impossible to make a multiplayer attack last seven seconds before effect. Campaign could work possibly, maybe you're being bombarded from afar on some mission. Most probably cinematic tho. | ||

The first half could be the standard on-click unit sound, the second half the attack sound. A Zerg artillery could be the re-introduction of a Nydusworm that shoots btw. | ||

I really think that it could be from the cinematic thingy blizzard will show at Blizzcon. If its a new unit.. it would be hiliarious if the unit is completely broken like all the new units they tend to make (it would not surprise me). But I hope it's a good unit that actually makes me want to come back again to the game. I think that you're underestimating the extent to which the community really cares about StarCraft. Chill mentioned it once back in ~2010 in TLOwnage where "Blizzard could change the colour of the Maurader's Boots and we'd argue about it for ages." It's the third part of a long-awaited sequel to what I presume is the childhood of a lot of the users here. A new unit would have to be super hype, but I think that this more or less confirms LotV instead, given the length of the clip. | ||

That's ridiculous that it would be several units in one, imagine the debriefing from Blizzard on that "great job guys, you guessed them all, it was a new unknown zerg unit roaring and doing nothing else notable, then the new reaver scarab launch sound and a marauder farting, excellent work cadets" Campaign sound is also bizarre, there is absolutely nothing to hype about campaign sounds. | ||

Probably they will have showmatches with the players into the finals to showcase the new units (or at least I hope, I don't want to see David Kim destroying Blizzard's employees again) | ||

That would be quite complicated to manage though. But forcing more mobility is definetely the way to go. I think the good thing with SHs is that they favor fighting all over the map instead of deathball vs deathball, and positionnal play. This could be emphasized by the SH having less range, a quicker burrow/unburrow and move speed, and perhaps manual locust firing (locusts being stronger to compensate) | ||

If you want to go that route it would be better to have slower spawn times on locusts over a period of burrowed time. | ||

Make it a unit that can be very cost-effective, but in order to attack it also needs to get into attacking range of the enemy. A positional unit is exactly what zerg needs, and I hope that it's not a long-range artillery unit. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + Let's say you're a new player and you build a queen from your hatchery. You mouse over its abilities and then you spot a grayed out upgrade: "morph to flying queen - powerful spellcaster. requires [x]". I think those sort of teasers are very fun aspects of the game. It's similar to hype created by a community over new unit suggestions, which derives from the same anticipation. Compare this to just seeing a unit in the larva's command card. There are units there to the point of overload so that the effect is lost and it feels less special, less like you can get to discover a new unit for yourself. | ||

And progamers play what gives them money, because it is their job. Rarely because they think "X" game is better. Just like food industries sell food that people eat rather than food that is "better". | ||

baneling catapult it is. not sure though if it will get merged out of 2 existing zerg units, a complete new unit or if its just an upgrade. you can clearly hear a zerg sound at the beginning followed by a "i shot sth noise". after that some "big projectile flying through the air sound" and at the end you just hear an impact and a baneling explosion at the same time. case solved, thank me later. edit: 4th race - good one. | ||

I think everything is free in lower quality. But you have the instant replay with the ticket in full HD (like i can pause the stream, go to sleep wake up and hit play and it will continue). I don't know if it's avaialable for free though | ||

Or maybe the UI gets changed to fit more units, what do you think? They are probably going to be removing/greatly reworking swarm hosts so that's 1, other than that I'd guess they come from morphing. I can't see them changing the interface, since blizzard is so afraid of scaring off casuals with changes. | ||

I think apart from a potential removal of the SH, it will be from morphing for zergs, I don't see why they would remove other units (except the corruptor. BLIZZARD PLEASE REWORK THAT DAMNED CORRUPTOR). And morphing is a mechanism that is very unique to Zerg, so going this way is probably what they'll favor | ||

Larva into corruptor is meh, but I guess it is/was required, because Blizzard is too stubborn to put in scourge. Hoping to see hydralisks or even roaches morph in LotV. Last chance, Blizzard. Surprise me. | ||

Another explanation seems to be an infested Reaver (which would explain the zergy war cry without words being spoken; Reaver from SC1 didn't speak), but the middle 'missile' sound doesn't seem to match up with the Reaver attack. Then explosion at the end of the clip would match perfectly with the contact of an explosion. Anyway I'm excited for Blizzcon!! :-) Here's some clips I found of similar noises Check either the Defiler, Devourer, or Guardian from the following channel to hear the noises. The beginning of clip: (Example) Devourer SC1: | ||

Up until this point, work on LotV has been heavily stalled since the majority of Team 2 is working on Heroes of the Storm full time. LotV had become sort of a side project. They might have done a ton of hiring though and built up a new team for LotV, and then fully split the Heroes and LotV teams apart, in which case they'd have stuff to announce at BlizzCon. That would require a lot of spending though. It doesn't look very likely either as the panelists for BlizzCon are still the same for Heroes and SC2, implying that it is the same Team 2 with the heavily split focus (mostly focused on Heroes). | ||

Listening to it again, it might be launching something hard, like a roach to a different part of the map or something. Really weird but the impact is definitely hard. | ||
