    In siege mode it looks more like an artilery than a sieged tank. Keep in mind the actualy Siege tank is a mobile artilery, not a Tank with an artilery aspect

    Actually it's both, it's a tank that can also be deployed as an artillery unit as well.

    That's why it's called a siege TANK.

    Its main purpose is to siege things imo. Its more of an artilery than a tank, it is both but its more the siege part, imo that is.

    Minimum range was there for a reason. If bliz decided to take it out, it would only be because they are still developing the game. Bliz seems bent on trying to make the game perfect, and It's impossible for a tank to shoot a target 3 feet away from it's current position.

    If this is permanent, then tanks will be at a benefit, as they can still shoot their close-ranged attackers that will undoubtly destroy them anyways without any negative drawback.

    True but I just see it as a hybrid. The tank mode is just as useful IMO. Anyway it should look more like artillery when in siege mode because it is.

    Siege tank is getting a REMODEL!!!

    Sorry if I sound too excited. I'm not sure if this is worthy for a new post. But here it goes.
    Siege Tanks are getting a remodel!!!

    http://www.battle.net/forums/thread.aspx?fn=sc-general&t=197971&p=1&#post197971

    I'm just soo happy they are because they were soo ugly when they were in Siege Mode. I'm sure many of you guys are going to be happy to see this news. Siege Tanks model was one of my biggest concern in SC2 because they were too damm ugly. Now, I'm just excited they are actually going to remodel it. I can rest in peace knowing that they are actually going to make the Siege Tank a cooler looking model.


    Bonus 300 minerals for yet another good find.  Good job on finding us info.

    Also rewarded the [misc] Worker Drone item for recent contributions providing this community with an anbundance of new information.  We appreciate your efforts.

    Are you sure this amounts to them getting a remodel? I can't be sure since all Karune said was "[noted]". I hope they do remodel it though.

    Yeah I was gonna say that really wasn't a definitive answer. But it is possible since, as we all know, nothing is final.

    OMG KARUNE NOTED YOUR POST WTF BBQ LOL HAX FTW FFS PBS ZOMG

    that doesn't mean it WILL be remodeled. That means that the will probably change the end of the gun for siege mode and keep the rest.

    probably because they are renders of high poly models at various angles

    IF blizzard would just do bakes of high poly models then starcraft 2 would look amazing and everything would be cool. INSTEAD they are taking the quick and easy way out and doing straight texturing via tablet or, if they're ballsy like me, a mouse.
