Does anyone else think it'll take them another year to get to beta?

Man, starcraft2.com isn't updated yet......

I'm pretty disappointed in the graphics. They just can't seem to get it right.

Oh the irony, even ZERG builddings look like plastic. Just check out the spawning pool.

Look at the top right of the shot. The infest animation is plain horrible. It's like it's spraying red goo from a fat hose. That has got to go.

I'm kind of glad the zerg look like that, it means they still have a ways to go. They made the terran look better, so I'm sure eventually the zerg will as well.

I hope they do. The graphic changes weren't that big but it's a start. If they set the release date for next year, they will hopefully have enough time to really improve the graphics.

Q: You said the development process takes a long time but Activision Blizzard's CEO Bruce Hack said it'll be out soon. About when will SC2 be released? And what will happen to SC1's sales and marketing once SC2 is released?
A: We can't say when we'll release. We'll be going for perfection. Also we have differences with Bruce Hack. However we both want to release this game ASAP. And because we have SC2 it doesn't mean we'll forget about SC1. If there's one user that loves SC1 we'll keep it going.

I thought this was kind of funny. And relieving.

Yea ur right about the infest animation TheTyranid.

I personally think they shoulda kept with the whole tentacle theme with that animation in particular, it just doesnt seem to fit at all...

Watching this vid over and over, I've come to the conclusion that any and all beam weapons have to go. They don't work, graphically. Look at the lats clash, where there is a collosus fiering constantly into the swarm. Notice that there is a Ultralisk standing right in front of it as it fires on the zerglings right behind it. Beam goes straight through Ultralisk and it looks ridiculous.

I've thought about similar things before, like the terran demo where the vikings land and start blasting away, standing in a very tight group and basically shooting through each other at the enemy. This was less obvious in the 2D starcraft1, and really there is no good way to get around it, just ignore it. But the beam weapons make this way too obvious. Unless it cuts through the units in front, also hurting them, or whatever other fix one might come up with, this is going to drive me insane, I think, because I am really goddamn anal about plausable graphics animations.

Edit: also, tentacles seem to be real big on Zerg atm

Edit 2: HOLY SHIT was that a nydus worm in the first vid where the collosi attacked the zerg base?

Or they could, you know, not let units shoot through each other in the first place.


They could also not let units shoot each other. It's better to solve conflicts without violence after all.

Noone really cares about '"projectiles passing through units".

Yeah really. Sounds are dry as hell. I guess that's something they work on as the whole thing progresses. But especially the zergling attack and marine death sound are just plain bad.

What? I'm in love with the new ling sounds. Much better!

Overall, more than pleased tbh. As for graphics they really do shine in live action in comparision to pictures.

i agree with nal_ra; its too early to talk about balance. it DID take an expansion and several patches over a few years to make bw as perfect as it is today

so true.
The zerg are looking good in my opinion. I also hope there will be some new units when it releases. (when he seleted larvas, there were some slots free, perhaps for new units?)

and like i mentioned earlier, the colossus' streaming laser looks to be gone in this build. theyve opted for what appears to be 5 simultaneous laser bursts in a sweeping line (not like the lurker's spike line, but from one side to another). easier to calculate damage, i suppsoe



I noticed this myself... looks like "real" AOE is coming back into the game finally. Very good news. I have no doubt the original laser just didn't kill zerglings and such fast enough to be worth it. Now we just have to worry about more screen clutter.

ultralisk is slow as shit, the zergling sounds dont make them as tough, the mass attack will have trouble distinguishing units from units.

Meh Lurkers dont look as cool anymore. Why did they remove their Hdyra heads and instead gave them a helmet?

The video FINALLY works for me, so I wanna take a moment to say something...

Blizzard, I take back everything bad I said after seeing the screenshots, the game looks ABSOLUTELY AMAZING when in motion. I'm once again dying to play this game!

It's just wowwwwwwwwwwwww

OR we could go with the idea of the thor being a giant SCV, and give him an oversized fusion cutter (I forget what the scvs thingy is called).

see!

If you use an scv to build a thor of another scv, a thor should be able to build a superthor on another thor, and the super thor should be able to build a mega thor on the super thor etc. Then a corrupter comes and makes it into a superduperultra infested thor wich is here to challange kerrigan of the command of the swarm wich gives us the zerg campaign.
