For those of you who think BW graphics are better than SC2 graphics, click this.

I'm not sure, but I think most of the people that are saying BW's graphics > SC2's graphics don't mean it literally. Perhaps a better way of stating it would be they prefer BW's aesthetic style over SC2's. There is no denying that SC2's graphics are better but the style of BW has a certain appeal to it that has grown on us.

k well... i dont hate the wings, but i would miss the old zergling a lot..... my solution...... leave the zergling without wings and let the wings be and upgrade. Maybe it could be a lategame upgrade that allowed zerglings to hop over terrain like a reaper. It would be a lategame upgrade, im talking hive if they still have it, so it wouldnt take away from the reapers uniqueness since reapers obviously come before lategame. This would also give the reapers more story, like zerglings started flying over terrain so terran needed a unit that could chase them. But yeah, dont know if this has already been suggested. Sorry if it has.

SC2 looks quite cheap, colour wise

broodwar looks _amazing_ in terms of colour schemes, the original had much more muted colours which gave it alot of feel imo.

Screenshots don't do SC2 justice I think. SC2 looks beautiful in motion much more so than SC1.
Keep it simple stupid.

much agreed. SC2 is too vivid and fantastic. it doesn't have the dark "battle-worn" feel of SC.

too bright~!

eh, I'll just tone down brightness and color contrast or something XP

The new zerglings suck! The mutalisks as well! I don't want crappy locusts and I don't want War 3 gargoyles. Bring back the sickly cool looking units that made the Zerg race as awesome as it is!

You are not right at all. Just because the graphics of SC2 is more "advanced" it doesn't mean it's better than BW's graphics.

And IMO, BW's graphics is much better than SC2's graphics, partly because it makes the game unique and not exactly the same as e.g. war3 and other of the modern day's RTS games.

I've always imagined the ling as more of a half-lizard half-bug thing rather than a dog. That'd be much cooler too and would actually make more sense with the eggs and all... Oh well.
I can't sing and I can't dance, but still I know how to clap my hands.
