The dark templar look terrible, looks too mechanical. A dark templar is supposed to be stealthy and cloaked. It should look like it is low armored and used for sneak attacks, and its blade was what made it a perfect assassin.

i bet that sensor dome researches the Reverse Scanner


reverse scanner idea sounds kickass =)

the supply depot thingy sounds good to me.. obviously it replaces the barracks + depot wall. but we still don't know if terran will have to wall in at all :S
at least now scv-s won't get stuck. (i hope).. i still won't judge the look of those 'new' units - not before i see them in game. anyways, these units are being tested atm... which doesn't mean we will see them in the final vrsion.

I love bw, we all love bw. But for god sakes this is a brand new game. You should want a new game with new units, abilities, and tactics. I don't understand how you can already shoot down units and ideas we barely know about yet. We have a few shitty screen shots of couple of new terran units and everyone thinks its the end of the world. No, it's not.

In BW the graphics really aren't that great, you only love it because your so used to it. You will get used to SC II. You will get accustomed to the units. Blizzard can't make every unit look exactly like it did in the original game, and I personally don't want them to.

I think all of the new terran units in the screen shots actually fit the terran motif for the most part, and they look great. For the record, almost every unit that has been put up at starcraft2.com has looked great.

I really don't know what most of you want; first you complained forever on end for starcraft II to be announced, and then when it IS announced, all you do is complain about how shitty it's going to be. Broodwar is broodwar, starcraft II is starcraft II.

why are people so upset about the graphics? it's the least problem and the easiest to change. models and stuff should be blizzards lowest priority. they will get around to it as soon as the gameplay is done, i'm sure.

Oh man allways the same "it's not bw it's a new game" argument blablabla.
So i absolutly HAVE to like the mothership? HAVE to like the high templar/dark templar/reaver/tank model? HAVE to sit back and clap along just because it's called starcraft 2?

I'm pretty shure most people here love the idea of playing starcraft 2 but are just afraid of how it might turn out. There is no guarantee that the game will be good. Just because it's blizzard means shit considering new people joined the club there. And the simple fact that there's a dude from c&c makes everyone shaky.

That's why i hate this "unit per unit" releases. It's all blizzards hype plan like they did with wow and i can't stand this shit. They give you small peaces and everyones jumping on it, shreds it around and in the end the piece you might get won't even be in there. That's why one of my mates got angry when they announced starcraft 2 without specific details. Because now we have to go down the "this might be imba"/"i don't like his role"/"why do we need that for?"-road.

Do you believe that the enemy will be able to see the burrowed depots?

If they won't then it would be nice for trapping for scouting units, but probably they will.

That would be ridiculous if you can't even see it without a detector...


No i meant without a detector. Maybe they can still see the metal floor when its burrowed...

Yes, I completely agree.

I hope that thor won't be too powerful. He sounds like some kind of superweapon (which is bad).
And it seems very wc3 to me. Of course I don't know how it will work out and it could be the greatest thing ever, but I'm very sceptical.

Also I don't like the sensor dome, scan ftw.
If we hit that bull's eye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.

SC2 is set a few years after BW,obviously. Protoss homeworld has been exterminated. Why wouldn't some of their weapons and technology change? Before,DT was an assassin with a blade. Now they have a scythe,maybe a more active combat role by necessity. The units will suit the story,not vice versa. When the USA invades Iran,you want them to use P-51 Mustangs and sherman tanks?

I know it's a fantasy universe but still, the Protoss MUST advance their technologies, even on their old units, or they will be completely destroyed. In the end,who cares about graphics. Sometimes i sit there and actually LOOK at some bw units and think...this is THE worst looking game ever. As long as SC2 plays well, they can have the teletubbies as frontline toss units,who gives a shit.

Scanning should at least show some sign on the opponents minimap, so he knows if you scouted his hidden tech/expand/army/whatever or not

It should also be able to collect 100 Vesperium per trip!

The Planetary Fortress should move like a big turtle(since the heavy turet will make it unable to fly), it would be fun
