Protoss Mothership!

especially the way they fight.
I like to see the map fill will moving points. crowd planes......

 

yea...but I am thinking...the warp ray and the mothership will replace the carrier and their little things ( I dont remember what they are called :)

this is the topic that discuses it

I prefer the look of the carrier, its iconic.
THe mothership, i think ive seen that style in a cartoon or something.

i bet the science vessels will look cool.

 

I like carriers too, but mothership just pwns. Uberly. There's no denying it.

 

Carriers will be left out of Starcraft 2

 

mothership is ugly!
The shape is so common in fantasy movies

 

As much as I loved the Carriers, the Mothership is a more than adequate replacement. Those abilities just pwn.

 

Was about to say
mothership > carriers

big time

(hehe, I just had to use the moving button. It begged to be pressed)

 

I'll miss the carriers if they aren't in there. But in a way I'm glad that the units are so different. It'll be fun making new strategies rather then just doing the same old thing all over again with prettier graphics.

 

and you can allways take a break from SC2 to do some Carrier ownage in SC ;D

 

Carriers will always be my fav protoss unit

the mothership is too much like the battlecruiser

 

yeah, i prefer the carriers more than the mothership... although the mothership pwns like nobody's business. but carriers are efficient... prefer it anytime over a crazy pawning unit in which you can only build one of... damn. are they really going to take out carriers?

 

^ yes they've removed carriers and will replace it with mothership, or a new unit ^

although i want the carrier to stay

 

In my opinion, carriers got really old after a while.

It seems like the whole goal of being Protoss in SC1 was to get a massive fleet of carriers, especially before broodwar. I think it will be much cooler to have a single unit with awesome spells like the mothership.

 

After watching the gameplay video clip, I have fallen in love with the Protoss Mothership.

Time Bomb - This attack is awesome, I can't believe Blizzard took so much time in creating this special attack for just one particular unit. It is visually extravagent. It is amazing how much attention to detail was taken, the missles in the demo that tried to penetrate the Time Bomb are suspended, then they fall, and roll. The effects of the shield reflecting, shining, and having the matrix-esque feel to it looks equally impressive.

Planet Cracker - Devastating. In the demo, this attack took out a army of marines and a terran barrack while the Mothership just hovered across the Terran base. This attack is also very visually spectacular, while beams bright blue light directed toward the ground leaves trails of damage to the ground, scatter lasers are discharged to focus in on enemy units and structures with more hp.

Blackhole - Right when I thought it was over, the demo introduced the Blackhole, the ultimate aerial attack/defense. It sucks in air ships within seconds, what other aerial special attack equal in terms of efficiency in destroying opponents? It looks great while doing it too, in the demo, Battlecruisers swirled towards the center of the hole once it was deployed. It showed the Battlecruiser animation being altered by the swirl effect of the hole, as it approached the center. After the Battlecruiser got sucked in, there was a nice poof I'm gone effect.

I'm in love with this unit. I hope Blizzard keeps all the attacks and their visual glory the same when it comes time for the final release. If you guys haven't seen the Protoss Mothership, you better check it out!

 

And did you hear the sound witht he Black Hole? It had creaking metal! How sweet is that!

 

I love they way it looks, and its spells are incredible! The only thing I'm worried about is la imba of the black hole. I mean, if you bring a fleet of BCs, you could just black hole away 1000+ minerals, 1500+ gas and countless minutes spent in creating the fleet.

PS - I love the way that BC fired a Yamato Gun while being sucked in! "I'm takin' a piece of you with me!!!"

 

I was a bit sad to see that the Battlecruisers were still crappy. Flame me if you want, but they suck :-\

 

I'm pretty sure they were tweaked to make it an easy win VS the MS.

 

I dunno, they seemed just like old SC1 battlecruisers to me
