    Am I the only one who noticed that, after a period of shooting, the infested terrans blow their own heads with their guns? :p

    I noticed that right now, watching the HD video for the 12372987398073489th time :-D

    Go and check it for yourself!

    And don't ask for them either! That's just bad form.

    As far as the suicidal Terrans go - that wouldn't make sense. Are you sure? I'll have to take a closer look at the video I guess.

    please, prove me wrong.
    i think it would be pretty sweet for there to be an animation of them killing themselves

    Omg. They do actually shoot them selfs. I noticed a few shooting them selfs in the face. But I think it may be a part of their death animation. Since at the end when the Marines were dead the Infests went on to kill the CC.

    I've tried to screenshot it but its pretty hard.

    well, I tried to make a short movie clip of the suicide animation, but to no succes.. these screenshots really don't help.. you will have to notice by yourselves... It is not that hard... choose an infested terran that is not one of the first to enter battle (since he will die by the marines) and you will see what I mean... the HD version helps ;)

    Having so many Marines at one time like this, maybe they got a timed lifespan like the broodling in the original SC. After that time they die, or decide otherwise to shoot themselves up.

    We need more high res videos :upset:

    EDIT: Marcus where did you get that high res video? Can you post a link?

    Its not a timed life span cuz the ones at the back don't kill them selfs, which means its part of their death animation.

    interesting, hmm... if they would just kill themselves like that, why dont they just add a suicide explosion ability to them where you can blow them up with an addon ability

    Like Zergalicious said, it is probably just a death animation...
