    If you will notice, it says that this unit builds from a robotics facility, confirming that there will be one. Hoefully they get shots of this out soon. Will probably look so badass. It will have like arms and stuff just making it look more... robotic.

    Itll probably open up and have cool effects just like stargate etc.

    I hope so. It would be great if all structures had some animation so they look more real/organic.

    Yeah, judging by the animation on the gate i'm sure there will be some amazing animations in the game that really bring it to life.

    Maybe it'll like sit there like the old one does. Oh and it will sparkle and shine. And the texture will be flat.

    Im pretty sure you can catch a glimpse of it in the 21 minute intro movie.

    i'm pretty sure you don't. that building wasn't released a month ago... you only saw few ptotoss buildings in the gameplay demo.
    are Robotcs really filled with hoes? :p

    No, im pretty positive it is, watch it again very carefully. It is definitely not pointed out by the Dev, but you fly through a large Protoss base with a variety of buildings in the beginning of the video, I'm positive its there, because I spotted it the first time I watched it.

    you only see it in a second though, but effectively, it's there

    Unless you pause it then you can see it for as long as you'd like.

    However, I only see a nexus, pylons, photon cannons, stargates, gateways/warpgates, a forge, an assimilator, and two unidentified buildings between the gateways and the stargates. These two buildings do not resemble any SC protoss building. The one to the left bears slight resemblance to the Robotics Facility but nowhere near enough for me to say that it is.
    Later you see those two tall slender buildings but they also dont resemble any SC protoss building.

    Where would it fold? For that matter, why would it fold?
