Space platforms have artificial atmospheres, there's both gravity and air on them.

 

i hope they will. no it does not. and it can still look better or improve better but still look practical at the same time.

 

johnnyxp64 please read the forum rules and stop queting people above you, how many times do i need to tell you?
I like everything, just amazing.

 

hail the new colours

 

What new colors?!

 

new skin, what you want!

 

Those flying Terran ships that aren't BCs, are those dropships or Nomads? They're pretty ugly either way. =/. And the marauders gun's look too big. I like the I idea of them towering over Marines though. And wheels look slightly akward on the Jackal, but I like the idea of wheels in general. Everything else looks pretty sweet, love the new skin.

Okay, I meant that I couldn't use the links but I saw them now, and I think their new color is awesome. I don't think I could be anymore in love with Terran then I have now. Does anyone else notice that the marines look a little different (And their rifles look like Assualt Riffles from Halo) and that reapers now leave smoke trails when they jump? And are nullifiers built from robotics facilities? They don't look like they are inhabitable by any form. And the battle cruisers plasma torpedos need to look like they come from different turrents rather then one area under the battle cruisers. And they need to make the rocks look more like their flaoting, since the only way I could tell it was floating was that dark templars were under them and running. I don't think that the tinnier guns are bad, I think they are beter. And the attack of the Stalkers are a little weak, when you see the collosus attack, it looks just as big as the siege tank shells exploding. Anyone else have somethigng to add?

 

Awesome, thats about all I have to saw about it.....

Also: it appears the Marauder shoots the grenades out of two attached "arm guns" which is good since i originally imagined them using a modified gauss rifle, which would be horrible, so yea, its awesome.....

 

Sweet screen shots. My opinion:

Likes - The new color scheme and grittier overall look for the Terran, Immortal's new cannons, Nullifier look, new Zealot and High Templar look, and Jackal look.

Dislikes - Battlecruisers with Plasma Torpedo no longer visually different than those with Yamato Cannon, Marauder's bulkiness, Psionic Storm (I know Karune said picture did not do it justice, but animation must be SICK to make the still we see acceptable), and Bunkers still look flat and un-menacing.

Overall though I am excited about where Starcraft II is going!

 

I'm with you all the way on the PT look. I really liked the forward-mounted guns, plus they helped you know which BC had which.

 

Wait, what is this anti-gravity attack that is talked about?

I've been checking for updates on this site every day and I never heard anything about an anti-gravity attack. ???

 

It's an ability that raises any unit or building to be lifted into the air, similar to WC3's cyclone.

 

And currently, Nullifiers have the anti-grav. When it was introduced to us, it was in the hands of the High Templar, but the spell is much more useful early game, which is why Blizzard gave it to the Nullifier.

 

Yeah they say it's more useful early game but when units like Thor, Ultralisk and Colossus start appearing, I think anti-grav becomes more powerful during late game than early game.

 

I never played WarCraft. I've been checking the updates on this site everyday, how come it never mentioned anything about anti-gravity? Am I not looking in the right places? Are they just not giving us all of the updates?

 

Apparently you're just not looking hard enough, or you don't read the updates thoroughly. That's really the only answer I could think of.

 

yes the terrans have a less toylike, less shiny colour and the grittiness they deserve
and woah love the model of the nullifier but jeez lazer attack again.... its gonna clutter up the screen..
and jackals looks like vultures
and marauders interest me, their attacks slowing down biological enemies seems to be quite useful

 

One question,
Colluses is freaken tall so how what would be his animation with anti gravity be? Guessing his legs would do the splits lolz
