As for Protoss motherships, I think theyre fine, but I agree, Ive seen way too many "motherships" and "black hole creation" ideas in stories/movies, etc to believe that SC copied C&C3.
I recall a lot of the Korean leagues (correct me if I'm wrong) didn't like WC3 because it was slower paced with fewer units?
I'd say those pundits got to Blizzard.
Korea is an entire entire country. Imagine if an entire country's economy is devoted to your product. You'd do anything and every thing you can to keep that client base happy. We witnessed this first hand as they introduced SC2 in the WWI in Korea of all places. They took the time to dub Korean language and font, yes textual Korean characters, in the cinematic trailer. I guess Blizzard market researchers determined people over there liked certain things from SC, and so, they stressed those features in SC2? I absolutely agree with your comment concerning z-n is suppose to be on par with the p-pp.
The premise is certainly different in the beginning for WC3. Instead of possibly rushing your opponent, you're sort of prodded into killing creeps. And the hero thing being touted in a country, Korea, where conformity is probably more favored than the 'one' savior concept. It seems WC3 didn't lend itself well to compatibility with the Koreans. I'm certainly sure they're exceptions to this, but as a whole we can see that SC remains more popular than WC3 over there.

They should make the mothership do soemthing else.. Like be able to carry all your units or something, if it isn't good enough yet.. It's fine in my opinion..

I'm sure everyone wants slow, ugly and practically useless units in SC2! The CnC mothership looks like CRAP, a ring + some shit in the middle, wow!

Not to mention it's slow as hell, pings on the map when it's build, and is easy killed. you literally need to have stormriders guarding it at all time from Venoms and Firehawks. And for god's sake 4 pitbulls and 3 mammoths can eat it up when left alone with it for longer then 1 minute. It's useless and costs 5K credits that could have gone into Tripods/stormriders/storm troopers/planetary assault cars.

dude it costs 5K? Where did it say that! 5K is too much, waaay too much in my opinion.. Maybe it'll cost about 5 carriers..

we just need some PLANETARY ASSAULT CARS in sc. that make it more worthwhile.

He just shortened carriers to cars and SC already has carriers... and it's still unknown if there are gonna be carriers in SC2.

Yea...I'll be sad if they get rid of carriers...they should be a protoss staple...the ultimate flying unit of the toss, and the micro involved omg...

MOTHERSHIPS DONT WORK ANYMORE
|
good reason for necro'ing 4 year old thread......
|
they nerfed them to hell man
|
havent you seen them in 2007? they deflected bullets even
|
It baffles me how people can find these old threads...
|
How did you even pull this out of thin air? Stop necro'ing threads..
|
Now with the new warp gate delay I think it might be even better. I hope to see some pvp stargate builds and the next natural step is mothership.
