Ghost (Terran Casters)

Re: Ghost

^ You are assuming too much.

All we know from the demo is where they uncloaked, not where they aimed the nuke from.

They could've easily scripted for the ghosts to aim nukes from max range, wait for nukes to drop and clear, walk to destination, and uncloak about half way. And I checked the demo vid again real quick just to be sure, and the ghosts uncloaked roughly 10 seconds after the last nuke dropped. That's plenty time for a short walk.

 

Re: Ghost

Ghosts with Ocular Implants can target nukes and not have to clear out if they do it from maximum range.

 

Re: Ghost

That's chopping the burger.

The point was, they were too close when they uncloaked, but I think Remy took care of that.

 

Re: Ghost

i think at theat point the demo was over, they were jsut having fun
the zerglings coudnt have survived the nukes, so its possible that the ghosts didnt exist until after the nukes had dropped
they were jsut messing about for the sake of the koreans

 

Re: Ghost

Dude, it was just a movie....

 

Re: Ghost

i know for the sake of game play it doesn't work, but shouldn't the Terran and Protoss have some sort of space force orbiting the planet(satellites, cruisers) that could spot for them?

Theres a few game play things that don't make sense though, like shouldn't the creep be able to feel people walking on it? does the creep have nerves? what does it eat?Does it complain about tanks rolling over it?

 

Re: Ghost

"Daggoth, Daggoth! A tank just drove over my cerebral cortex!"
;D

 

Re: Ghost

its really jsut a game, imagine if they had to "replan" the game becuase of things like gravity on a space platform, jsut be happy you get to have a giant planet in the background.
And knowone really knows waht the creep is other than this goo that zerg use to build stuff on. It could do any number of things, blizzard hasnt told us yet though

 

Re: Ghost

Just trying to understand how this works out, to see if they got more technological in their range and being attacked.

 

Re: Ghost

You really have to wait till the demo is out to find out

 

Re: Ghost

i need a conclusive amount of time as to the difference of end of BW to start of SC2. Anyone know if the mother ships were already built before or if they were finally authorized?

 

Re: Ghost

I could make up something for you if you'd like.  Would you settle for that for now?

I don't see how it's possible for anyone outside of Blizzard to know a detail so minute as that, as of now.  Heck, I bet most of Blizzard hasn't even thought about that.

 

Re: Ghost

Oooo. I like it , but they do look strange.

 

Re: Ghost

Nukes away! Good ol' Ghosts. I'm glad to know that they'll still be appearing in SC2. Nuking your opponent to death is just way to fun sometimes.

 

Re: Ghost

Guys, it is stated in the PC Gamer Magazine interview with Blizzard, that the Huge Markers are only visible from the launcher's perspective. In the eyes of the enemies, it is still a small red dot!

 

Re: Ghost

Yes we've discussed this elsewhere.
On another note, if you look at the shadow of the ghosts when they are just standing there, they look very detailed so the ghost is probably very detailed.

 

Re: Ghost

I really like the new animation of their weapon fire. It makes them more impactful and feels hurting.

 

Re: Ghost

I doubt a ghost will be able to survive a nuke even if it's its own nuke.

 

Re: Ghost

I wouldn't be too dissapointed if the ghost just stayed the same. I like its abilities, it gave it a very covert ops feel to it.

 

Re: Ghost

Yeah, it's my favorite unit, it doesn't need any changes.
