Hey blizzard workers in case you're reading this thread to view reactions to the presentation of the game...

my email is michael.lee0@gmail.com and if you're looking for beta testers, i would be more than happy and beyond honored to seriously help! you can completely trust me with keeping any information secret as well — i'm somewhat known for that kind of thing socially.

I wonder when the beta (closed, whatever) starts, I could probably play the game 16 hours a day or something (hint hint) :D

I need beta connections asap

I'm really impressed and all... but with all these new units and abilities, i'd like to know the pricing and strategical costs of doing such things. For example, i know there are a few singleton-ownage units... but i'd like to know how much macro etc is sacrificed in attempting to get one. People are scared about imbalances, but maybe by the time you can manage to get one of those units, you've already won? It's like owning with zerg, and infesting a cc and making infested terrans, just to rub it in. You get me?
Oh no

Coolest thing we have seen yet:

OMG the zerglings really look like a swarm now!
Zerglings can be suacide bombs!
Burrowing looks awsome!
New toss units have really neat abilities (the shuttle/pylon thing, dt goon, new goon etc)

Things I don't know about yet:
Jump jet infantry? Feels very CnC 3.
Tripods, same thing. That ray looks like it could be confusing.
Siege tanks, those blasts looks like they could be confusing, dunno about how the unit looks.
Zealots having charge - hope it will be an upgrade, otherwise it will be hell to micro against them early game (which it shouldn't be)

Things I don't like:
Protoss mothership. WTF BLIZZARD? NO SUPER UNITS PLEASE, BRING BACK CARRIERS! T.T;;

I hope they keep it clean and make it a bit more gritty and less colourfull. I have high expectations for the new zerg though. ^_^
Unity, support, family, and kneecapping bitches.

The mothership is the most disappointing unit so far. "Super units" just don't cut it. A semi-super unit like carriers etc. are enough. But w-ever, mby it will all work out for the best!

looks nice, but we still know too little to judge the game. toss surely looks strong, but im guessing they aint stupid to make 1 superstrong race and 2 that suck. So, im looking forward to seeing some interesting Terran/Zerg units.

However, untill i see a presentation of a fast paced game like BW, i wont look forward to this too much. (a simple marine dodging lurker spines would make me go OMG OMG OMG)

One thing I like *a lot* is how the tripod seems to be treated as an air unit in the videos (missile turrets are firing at it).

If that is indeed what it is (a slow moving cool looking air unit) I'd be pretty happy about it actually.
It still feels way to much like CnC, but I guess that is what we could expect with a cnc lead designer. T.T;;
Protoss had ONE walker in the first game, now they have 3? Meh, don't ruin the unit design.

And if they cut vultures (coolest unit ever) for fucking jump yet infantry... wtf blizzard?

Other than that it looks so awsome.

To summarize, just based on the coolness factor of the units:

Vulture >>> Jump jet infantry.
Reaver > Tripod thing
Carrier >>>>>> Mothership (WTF blizzard?)

On the other hand.
Shuttle < Awsome pylon ship thingy
Old zergling < New awsome looking zerglings
Unity, support, family, and kneecapping bitches.

I guess some of you never wanted Blizzard to create Warcraft I then, since it would never have happened without Dune 2.

But if you are going to talk about copying, make sure you go back to the source, and the source is usuallly a book, turned into a movie, then copied into a game. None of the things people list were afaik original for cnc3.

I see other elements that might or might not be inspired by other games, like the warp spiders from dawn of war (and the jump jets again of course), and the creation of units from thin air does remind me of something, I think its actually total annihilation kingdoms, but that game sucked so I'm not going to look it up :p
