Also I'm very suspicius who is working in the creative section für SC2...the Units are very very dissapointing. Even the Unit's in War3 had a MUCH better design, looked better and fitted better to the scenario. But here the Protoss Units are looking so similar..some grey...and even more grey colours. This is just lame. Even the Interceptors of the "new" Carriers are looking "cheap". Somehow i feel Blizzard's creative section isn't up to their performance like when they worked on SC/BW and War3. greetings so far, SkY | ||

Just gtfo of this forum if you can contribute nothing but estetic whines. Shows just what kind of noob you are. Any real gamer cares less about looks, lame unit names or whatever and sees that kinda stuff as a bonus. Gameplay and strategy is where its really at. If you cant see that, please go troll on Bnet forums. The only thing we know about gameplay is going to be a new type of attack, namely continuous damage (colossus warp-ray). Which in my opinion makes for some interesting takes as they are hard to use for hit and run and cant really do the attack, move, attack, move as with most current ranged units because it looks like you need 1 second or more before damage ticks. Plus the fact that you waste the best of its ability which is the continued strafe across the battle field or the increased damage over time of the warp-rays. Another is the new protoss way of producing units and the way they can warp them in everywhere, that + phase prism technology are incredibly brilliant designs which make gameplay absolutely unique and innovative. If people would only look at what blizzard is doing to gameplay design and originality where it matters in my opinion namely where it really makes or breaks a game they would see its a diamond in the rough atm. Thanks. | ||

everyone also seems to forget that blizzards allways adjust the game in it's expansions  Original starcraft , diablo, worldofwarcraft, warcraft3 vs their expansions is worth a whole new topic. | ||

I mean in terms of colour contrast between backgrounds and units, glow and everything else. OF course you dont understand whats going on the first time you play starcraft, this is diffrent however. Starcraft 2 so far has a less solid look in terms of contrast between background/ units and buildings. It seems the background in starcraft 2 attracts the eyes ALOT more than in the original game. and imo a bad thing, especially since starcraft 2 will have so many units on screen in comparison to another somewhat unclear game (wc3) get it ?!?!?!?!??!?!?!? | ||

I advise you first watch the high resolution version, then if that still doesn't sort it to see an eye doctor. In wc3 units are HUGE how can that not be a clear game? :S Personally I have no problems at all with the current SC2 looks, I really like it but thats a personal and subjective thing. As far as Im an overenthusiastic fool, I dont see why Im a fool with my opinion and especially dont see why you arent a overpessimistic fool then along with all other whiners. This forum needs some form of positive antitrolls against all the whine. We Are the Blades of Aiur! | ||

It's ugly too, like starcraft 2 is so far. and your bitching about "whiners" is quite silly, cause most people here are giving good critical arguements.. you're not giving especially great arguements why sc2 is so great in comparison to broodwar.. Imo, you're the whiner. You're bitching against people who are critical (since when is being critical such a bad thing?) and thats quite lame. Are all threads about sc2 suppose to be about people worshipping the game? Before it's released you cant praise it much, but you sure as hell can criticize it to death. And you should too, i think. | ||

To each his own, you wanna be like that go ahead. But seriously you call unfunded dislikes about color or lasers well argumented criticism? What Uni do you study at? Lol. Its the unfunded complaints that are repeated in every thread they can. I see nothing critical in that, just a subjective complaint about estetics. As for the rest I'll decide for myself what I should do fyi tyvm. And being critical about pre alpha is just nuts. Nonstop bitching about looks while a game is all about gameplay and balance is just a joke. People take brilliant new innovations such as the new building tech from toss for granted while that really matters and influences the game but they just keep on whining and crying and bitching and nagging about some shades of green or if its lasers or plasma bolts. Sigh to each his own I guess. And FA totally agree with yous sir, soulhunters are tres dire. Personally everything Ive seen with the sole exception of the soulhunter has totally hyped me for this game and I expectantly wait for more goodies. If you feel differently, fine, but try argumenting why or make your own whine thread instead of clottering other threads up with negativism and unfunded complains. Reasoning such as its got lasers so its CnC3.5 so it must suck just tires me out. | ||

The game needs to be more realistic, grittier, and less boxy and cartoony in appearance. Complaining about this in the pre-alpha stage is a good thing because if Blizzard hears enough complaints about this they might actually do something to make the appearance more in line with the gritty feel of the StarCraft universe in subsequent stages. Complaining about the appearance of the game is actually one of the only legitimate criticisms you can make at this time since we know little about the gameplay and nothing about the balance. And saying that the appearance of the game doesn't matter is simply very untrue, especially for a game that is supposed to become a spectator sport. | ||
