Actually, while everyone here seems so FUCKING sure that its all a huge 'ripoff' of CnC or Dune or whatever, realize that starcraft is basically based off of warhammer 40k. Toss are Eldar, Zerg areTyranids, Marines are Space Marines. The Reapers are assault marines, the walkers are dreadnaughts, the soul hunters had eldar equevilants, firebats were spacemarines with upgrades, etc.

Just stop whining please. Your making my dick soft...

Also, building 2 units from a building, what about contructing 2 buildings and doing the very same thing... did they forgot about that "feature" in BW?

Of course there are going to be goddamn charecteristics between the terrans in starcraft and units in games like CnC. You know why?

CnC is about futuristic HUMANS too. The terrans are also HUMAN. So logicaly the game designers are going to use similar technologies and such because they are both recreating what the human race will be like in the future, hence things like radar.

And I still don't see how the names cobra, reaper, and thor are any cheesier than wraith, goliath, and vulture. You're just not used to it yet.

What does Blizzard have to do to show you that its doing its best to create a great sequel. They've already gotten rid of the soul hunter and old seige tank model, how can you not have faith?

Hmm I think that after constructing a Thor the SCV gets to be its pilot doesnt it? I mean Terran dont have robotic combat units only (unlike Protoss).

I like the addon idea. But you guys are right: a lot of those ideas are C&C like. For example the Ghosts lauching xxx. Sounds like those specialpowers in C&C3 where you summon infantry to the battlefield.

since thor seems to be heavy armor and heavy attack/siege like the tanksImmortals and warprays prolly are the natural counter to it. I doubt thor even can hit air, looks like a exclusive land unit-building destroyer to me

- He has a mining ability.
- His mine is quite bit different from vulture's.
- A litter later after mining, it targets on building or unit which didn't show any movement, and explodes.


The bit about the mines is a bit confusing to me. Here's how I read it.

It's deployed like a spider mine is in SC1, but it will not trigger when enemies move past it. Instead, it will explode once a unit stops for a short moment in close proximity to the mine. Will also trigger on buildings since they are stationary at all times.

Do you think it will work like that?

I guess Zerg will have the most old units in SC2, lings, muta's, ultra's, hydra's and lurk's and I for one am very happy with that :D

I must admit... all these screens of terran army does look very Total Annihilation Esque.

But maybe it will be awesome! ^_^

Have an open mind about it... I want to see a Terran gameplay video!

Thor aren't super units - you can have more than one of them on the battlefield at a time.

My mistake. I see now why I shouldn't have classified a unit that can take out an entire base alone as a super-unit.

its slow and shoots slow, it can't take out a base alone
its very vulnerable to small units i guess and they already said its very vulerable to hit & run attacks

Everything is really great so far IMHO. And don't forget that the magic that made Starcraft such a kick ass game starts when they get into the beta stage. The Zerg were called the "Nightmare Invaders" at first and Drones could infest Command Centers for crying out loud...

Unless the statement is just an editorial exaggeration (very possible), it sounds like it can assault a base all on its own.
