Hey everyone,
I just want to share my thoughts with you after I saw the screenshots and the gameplay videos of Starcraft 2.
Ok, first of all, complete reading my post and don't stop when I say one thing against Starcraft 2.
When Blizzard announced Starcraft 2 I was like "Oh my god, I love you Blizzard". Then I saw the intro and was even more glad than before. I saw the screenshots on IGN and then I was a little bit upset.. all looked so, how to say, funky.. coloured like Warcraft 3 and C&C! But to think about it, these screenshots were zoomed in like 300% of the game, and so it does not look that bad. After seeing gameplay videos of Terran and Protoss I have to say this is totally awesome.
The new units with their abilities totally own the shit out of me. For example the units that are similar to goons, who can teleport to a place that they see.. (near by) that makes them perfect to chase something.
Also the grafics are great, the environment in dirt or space is just totally great! The ramps that leads to higher places.. shimmering in a shiny silver.. like real metal.
I'm so glad. And this is not even the final! Lets hope they improve more ! I will definatly buy Starcraft 2. Perhaps 4 times to get all race pictures on my Starcraft 2 packet:D!
What do you think?
Additional: The Protoss mobil shield that can warp in armys everywhere seem to be strategical very good! GREAT GAME!

Graphics look like shit, its War3 engined, and so many things have been brought over from CnC 3. Why can't the lead designer forget about his job from CnC 3 and remember this is Starcraft.
There have been so many drastic changes in the game, and it doesn't look at all apealing. It infact looks like a CnC with vespene gas and minerals. Fucking Sucks.

gameplay vids > screenshots completely.
The Stalker seems imbalanced
BAD: It seems you can select like 30 + units at a time on the video, but this is still alpha, so no worries.
I CANT WAIT TILL THIS GAME GETS OUT!

I'll quote EvanTheBouncy
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?"

IT LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE C&C FFS. WTF!!!!!!!!! THIS GAME IS SO FAR AWAY FROM SC1 THAT YOU CAN POSSIBLE COME.
ITS A MIX BETWEEN WC3 AND C&C.it looks so ugly
|
i also thought on dawn of war...
and dawn of war is SLOOOOW.
i want the speed of starcraft!
|
I realized that there is so many toss unit. I am wondering is PvP will drastically change as well as PvT PvZ. Also looks like we cant hide nuke drop no more

Poll: Does SC2 Look Good? (Vote): Yes! OMG *ORGASM* (Vote): Fuck No, WTF is this shit (Vote): IDK man, W/e

The problem I see is that the units move too slowly - how long does it take a marine to walk from the top to the bottom of your screen in sc1? In sc2? It seems - from the gameplay - that its at least 2x as slow now. I really hated the slowness of WC3, and as sc2 so far looks like a war3 mod it may take over that.

www.starcraft2.com
go there and look at the site/vids.
They WANT to make it competetive and shit still dies fast.
The unit control looks WAY better then war3 and other rts games.
I think it is going to evolve into something great for the competetive community;o

Come on, its alpha.. and it doesn't look bad in ingame videos.. just the screenshots are crap!

Yeah, it DOES look a little bit like CnC3 but I'm not gonna pass judgement until I've played it ~_~
Also, I'd like to say that if SC2 had to look like another RTS I'd say CnC3 is a better choice than most.. But yeah, a little disappointed with this as well..
