    Q u o t e:

    When a nydus worm surfaces, and after releasing its troops, does it become a back and forth instant transport system similar to the nydus cannal in SC1? Or in other words, is it a 2 way road?
    Q u o t e:

    After being deployed and releasing troops, is the nydus fixed forever in its spot, or can it move again?
    Q u o t e:
    Is Nydus Warren first entrance to tunnels?
    Or are 2 Nydus Worms needed (each one as entrance and exit)?

    We speculated upon it. This is clarification.

    I didn't know that you could go from Nydus Worm to Nydus Worm tho, thats new to me.

    oh yeah that was new... who would've thought that you can exit out of whichever worm you wanted via worm to worm which adds a great factor of tactics for nydus worm deploys,

    Eh, I kinda knew this already. I could see some interesting tactics with having lots of Nydus worms popping up all over the enemy base and giving them hell.

    its like a GLA hole in C&C Generals, where you can place any unit inside and deploy anywhere a hole is available

    its a good thing that there arent any such excavation accidents in starcraft with all those burrows... if it was like here on earth, there wouldnt be any possible road to drive or walk as you might just go deep down straight to hell.. lol

    @ lurkers lurk - lolz, your really keeping it tight with cannon-fathers grammer i see... anyway have any of you guys seen Kevin Bacons' movie "Tremors"?? if so, you'll have a bright idea of what really is ugly and possibly its ideal movie basis like War of the worlds with Colossus

    yes i seen the movie, it was an ok movie, i didnt like Tremor 2 or 3 tho., and the creatures were ok as well, but for some reason i cant explain, i really dislike the animation of the Nydus worm.

    i loved the tremors movies and i wouldn't mind if the nydus worm's model was based off of the movie.
    Also @freedom23 whos "cannon-fathers" im pretty sure my name has the word fodder in it.

    Kevin Bacon was in tremors? I haven't seen those movies in forever. 3 was terrible, 2 was the best.

    Nice vid, although why does it look like a bad rave?

    @ CannonFodder - well actually i was pointing out to you being checked up on always by Lurkers_lurk, and the father thing is just a word fun...

    @ Bloodhawk - Kevin Bacon was an original cast of the first tremors movie and it was good.. btw its been one of the better old movies that deserves an epic standing ovasion lol.. the kid always reminds me of how bad he was acting... nyahahaha

    Kid above water tank: "we gotta do sumthin!!! we gotta do sumthin!!! way to go dude!" if youve seen the movie you'll definitely remember these crappy lines lol

    Anyway back on the worms its deployment animation was quite bizzarre as it looks like it was catching its breathe for air, of course its not real but technically blizzard probably just wants to balance the game giving time to other races to kill the worm before it deploys itself and unloads the swarm

    The worm-to-worm travelling is new to me. I wonder how they'll implement that: will loaded units be part of a universal group that any Nydus Worm can unload, or will you have to select two specific Nydus Worms to make a two-way path?
