how do u find the sc2 new graphics

What i mean is: Look closely to doodads like the shops on platform and badlands, and you will see an amazing level of details. Even the tables can be seen inside the dominos pizza look alike doodad on the space platform.

 

will that create a lag problem with over detailed things

 

Lag is about connection speed, and since units and doodads are loaded from the hard drive or the CD, they dont create lag. However, a sistem that is not good enough can start working slowly if stuff is too detailed, that generates in game slowness for everyonone, but stricto censu its not lag.

 

i dont like how some units look kinda warcraft ish. mutalisks looks almost identical to that flying thing on wc3.

 

aww ty for explaining lag and how it happens i never knew until now

 

I daresay you should be more specific... I don't think anyone whos had any experience with Blizzard beforehand would complain about the graphics as they are now. I myself believe a little tweaking is never a bad thing... but for someone who comes into a Blizzard game, complaining about cartoonish graphics is obviously noob.

 

maybe hes talking about the gargoyle?

Well anyway i think the new sc2 graphics are great. to be honest i liked warcrafts graphics a lot too. The only thing wrong with warcraft (graphics wise) is when there was a huge huge battle, with all the buffs and curses casted you cant see anything. the battle becomes a huge blur of bright colors. Like you have inner fire, scroll of protection, lust, auras, wands, healing wars, stasis traps, summons, spears and missiles flying around the screen it losses the feel of a battle... more like the special omelet that my mom makes on my birthday. but from what i can tell starcraft 2 battles seem pretty clear from what i can tell.

 

lol im looking for people that say the graphics suck...but im too lazy to go to the next page...

 

I'm actually wondering how they're going to make the more slimy biological Zerg buildings and units. In the SC1 when buildings and units were mutating you could see all the fluid pulsating movements (think of the latter stage of a Lair evolving into a Hive). I'm sure graphically the Zerg are going to be the most difficult, because they're not as solid and defined as the Protoss or Terran. The Zerglings so far almost seem mechanical/robotic rather than biological.

 

That's a very good theory Jewels, this is probably why they are doing it at the end.

Nice first post... probably the best "first post" I've ever seen.. people always start with that "hello I'm XXXX" Bullcrap.

good job.

 

jewels, welcome to the forum

 

I am a little worried about how the Zerg will look with the new graphics, but the Protoss and Terran look perfect with them. I am very happy with all of the units and buildings EXCEPT the Mutalisks and the Zerglings. The Mutas look too chunky and not slimy enough and the Zergling wings annoy me, plus they are a little to big. (lol)

They are probably just temporary models. The Banelings and Nydus Worms look fantastic.

 

I wish Blizzard would hurry up and release information on the Zerg. Then we could see how they look, finally. I hope hydralisks look awesome. Because hydralisks are my favorite unit.
