3:07 - Showing gameplay footage - Looks like protoss ships - floating over asteroid/ base structure - entering protoss ase - similar looking buildings - vespene gas still in the game - character pane shows up on right side - some protoss guy - shifts to terran bases floating on rockets over same type of territory - sill collecting crystals as resources - marines load out. Dustin is actually playing the game - nothing in the game is final. | ||

Toss could be even more heavily micro intensive than it is now, with the player expoing as to get a few power units to wreak havoc, while zerg could be more macro intensive. GOD I WANNA SEE SOME INGAME STUFF >.< | ||

Ah.... so that's what's inside a barracks! See in the beginning: A prisoner released Came out, step in boots. Then korean should say: Marine or some other pre-determined unit type for that dude. Then construction of armor, looks darn permanent, is constituted on the marine. When he's done it's over. | ||

Marines have shields? And this looks like it's going to require alot of good hardware, especially in a large scale battles. Look at how detailed even turret rockets are... Too many colors and graphics for my taste. I hope they tone it down a bit. | ||

Actually no, cause you don't have time to react since it can be anywhere on the map. Oooor it could all be good if it's costly. Or not truly incredibly damaging. In which case what's the point. Hm | ||

Yeah one thing about fancy graphic of WC3 that I don't like is it tends to be too fancifully messy. When starcraft untis fight each other, you know what is going on. When lurker spines shoot up, You know marines will pop, zealots will flame, and dragoons will leak. But in WC3 you see arrows flying spells storming units bashing all over the screen and nothing happens. Then you go "erm wtf did those shinny things just do?" | ||

Jump pack dudes should go abit faster to emulate a vulturelike behavior, a hord of rampaging locoust I think... Immortals are sorta bleh... might be good for flanking terran metal but hell maybe metal will be obsolete w/ SC2 hahaha... OH DID U C THE PYLON? fucking insane... You can do cannon cliff with 100x effectiveness. Also, you don't need to proxy gate anymore, just make a pylon and it's an instant nydus canal! Woah! Imho they did a good job in making the untis very versatile, not saying it'll be balanced but they made even the smallest unit have a dramatic ability. It's not like other shitty RTS where each unit has a spell... like one infantry has 1+ dmg spell and some other infantry has 2+ def spell... Not like that. They made the spell so the untis can literally shreds around the battlefield and makes great dynamics. !! :D I'm very excited. And No game doesn't look too messy in ingame play with his description. | ||

It is impossible not to see my point. + Show Spoiler + My point is you are overly generalizing the dimentions of PvT, very narrow minded in thinking Terran in SC2 will opt a metal based army and will be trashed by immortals. Same mindset as those newbies who think carriers are invincible simply because they are effective vs. the normative unit combination. But I do think when you typed that post you didn't take it too seriously and was half joking anyways so no biggie. | ||

his point is that it takes a lot of time to make a carrier, and even though carriers are instawins you hardly ever make the time or money to afford more than maybe one and still win the game (especially in 1v1 games). if you say these obviously expensive immortal units are powerful and you can push them and then use units afterwards, you'll have to take a lot of time to save up for these expensive immortal units — and chances are they'll be like carriers in that you need to wait a while in order to get them available and much less make enough to do this strategy. edit -- then again thost terran reapers really tore those fuckers up in the vid that mr.grizz posted earlier (outstanding posts, sir) | ||

Lots of mineral patches are still there, which means there's a high chance of flexible economics and a large number of workers to play around with. The units don't seem to be stuck in the frontline, but harrass and backdoor attacks look really favored. And the atmosphere is serious and intense. This is all that we could have hoped for. | ||

Collosus looks uninspiring, it's basically a long ranged archon, if you look at zlot+collosus vs lings ling die about same rate as if they're fighting zlot/archon army. Phoenix looks uninspiring too, beside the crappy shape design, it's just a valkarie which will hit sprite bug haha... Lol blizz guy tried to micro his blinky dudes, <3 | ||

To stay on topic, I am very excited and the game looks pretty damn good as it is (the visuals), so I can hardly imagine what the final product would look like. I don't see how anyone can complain about new games having better graphics. Usually, as time goes by, people get better computers. If it doesn't run smoothly on your computer, stop being a cheapass and get a new computer. It's a RTS for god's sake. It won't be insanely high req. Blizzard always makes significant improvements to interface, multiplayer system and gameplay with each passing game. Remember how they made a working ladder in WC3 after BW? Not to mention the tournament system. Although I have to say it really sucked that they forgot (?) to include replay viewing on battle.net for WC3. | ||

1. Unit sound! You click zlot it goes "MY LIFE FOR AIUR!" :D 2. Before the loss of Aiur, veteran protoss warriors who had been crippled in battle could volunteer to continue their service by being transplanted into dragoon exoskeletons. Now, the dragoons of the past are all but gone. The sacred shrine that was dedicated to the creation of the dragoons was infested by the zerg and lost along with the protoss homeworld itself. They stand on the front lines of the final war, sacrificing themselves to buy their race a few more days or hours. Soon none will remain. So NO more dragoons! They're replaced by Immortals... hopefully they have a better AI haha... So NO more dragoons afterbreed in SC3 if they happen to make it. 3. However, the overthrow of Aiur has proven that guile alone cannot defeat a foe as relentless as the zerg. Inspired by the ancient and honored dragoon walkers the dark templar have begun to build war machines of their own. The stalker is a machine controlled by the shadow-essence of a dark templar warrior, willingly fused into its metal body to protect his people. Okay so DT are still there but there's these DT dragoons... I think DTgoon w/ speedlot will trash siege tank, teleport in for the rape. These things looks like they have great micro potentials, could probably do insane manuvers if you got the brain to think about them. 4. For thousands of years the Protoss have studied the nature of time and space. Through their painstaking studies and experiments protoss researchers have uncovered many of the secrets of the universe. Using psionic manufacturing processes, the protoss have learned how to create a robotic mind whose programming is built into the molecules of an advanced crystal lattice. This "crystal computer" is able to manipulate matter and energy with a precision no ordinary organic mind could comprehend. So these beauties are the new arbitor, probably gonna get them alot earlier relatively than the current arbiter, cuz the tech tree is in the robo... Great potentials, pylon power could mean maybe Protoss can even caontain a zerg with impromptu teleport and wraping in 10 cannons around it. It is by far, personally, the best designed unit artistic wise. 5. Did you guys notice the voice act are different? They took WC3 voiceactors so it seems... man I miss the old voices though T_T 6. Gateways now have this uber wrapgate upgrade, so once you've made a gateway a wrapgate, you can wrap units(I assume the untis making in the wrapgate) and create it in ANY part of your pylon matrix. Website says it's good to use the phaser to make a temporary pylon matrix and use wrapgate to rally into some remote spot, sounds pretty sweet. 7. Marine statue, anyone fancy? 280 bucks haha https://us.blizzard.com/sc2collectible/starcraft2/menu.html | ||

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. ^_^ | ||

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 | ||

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 | ||

Still hope it will be either an upgrade or that they can only charge in a straigth line (that would make microing against it much easier). Edit: Now they can of course charge however they want. Hope they change it. It's a brilliant idea otherwise. | ||

But jump jet infantry, despite clearly being very CnC3/DoW (as well as the stalkers being very CnC3 shock trooper like), seem fun :D | ||

Even if some things look weird now, I think it will all work out in the end. We probably won't have the best RTS game ever, but something good enough to replace brood war by converting veterans and luring young people into the scene =). | ||

- Most of these pictures are probably from the campaign. - We haven't heard anything about the other races. - Why be disappointed already? Seriously, just be happy we know a potentially great game is in production. We don't have nearly enough context to judge any of these new changes. | ||

A lot of features Blizzard semi-declares get held for an expansion pack :o) Possibly including the 4th race. | ||

1. Blizzard has stated that their goal is for a fast paced, dynamic sc2 in the spirit of the original starcraft. 2. From the start, their goal is to make "the ultimate competitive RTS". I think those are two of the most important directions they should go, and I'm glad that they recognize this so early. | ||

"What is StarCraft II? StarCraft II is the ultimate competitive real-time strategy game, and the sequel to the hit original, StarCraft. The game will include three completely distinct and balanced races, the Protoss, Terran, and Zerg, which have been overhauled and re-imagined with a number of new units for each, as well as new tricks for some of the classic units that are returning." <3 | ||

P.S. Jet infantry also sucks, an age old idea, not to mention they are armed with pistols, wtf?! A pistol shouldn't fucking do anything in sc, you have a freaking machine gun dealing 6 damage for a lot of bullets fired, what would a damn pistol do? | ||

Continious laser stream attacks are also bad, each separate attack should be distinguishable and you should be able to repeatedly move and attack, but with lower overall movespeed than compared to simply moving.

Not nearly enough context: The 'motherships' may be weaker than a carrier or battlecruiser, we don't know yet. They also may only be campaign. Perhaps the jet-pack infantry have very weak attacks and are primarily used for scouting? Perhaps they cost a fuckton to make? We just don't know. | ||

Perhaps the jet-pack infantry have very weak attacks and are primarily used for scouting? Perhaps they cost a fuckton to make? We just don't know. Motherships are restricted to just 1 unit max and have very powerfull spells, so there is no sense being weaker than BC/Carriers. Artifical unit restrictions are just plain bad and super units suck twice as much. If it wasn't limited in number and is not all powerfull, so you need several of them, I don't mind, but a 1 unit army can hardly be both usefull and balanced. Even if they have weak attacks they should have unleast a rifle, wtf is this pistol bs, why not attacking with their bare hands(a la skeleton karate chops from warcraft 1), that would unleast be badass P.S. Siege Tanks look awful, but I'm sure they'll change that, after all it's not even a beta | ||

"According to the panel, the game is apparently being developed by a team of approximately 40, though on the matter of the budget and the schedule, Morhaime simply said, "We don't really have a budget; we'll spend as much time and resources as we need to make this game great."" FUCK YEAH!!! World of Warcraft was good for SOMETHING! Now that Blizzy has money up the wazoo, they can make SC2 as frickin' good as it can be.... =D | ||

I hope he had the gamespeed set on slow, although it sure looked like normal pace for what was being shown. Also, with the ability to just 'click' and create protoss units, it seems they destroyed the traditional sense of the macro game. I'm curious to see how it will play out =/. Gamespeed was set to slow (or at least slower than the fastest speed) for demo purposes - multiple sources has stated this (SCL, gamespot are the two I can remember seeing). He didn't just click to create toss units btw, they were warping in from upgraded gateways (warpgates) I believe. | ||
