    Someone has posted the video on YouTube. Confirmed to be the real deal guys. I'd watched the clip before it was taken down on Dailymotion. Here's the link:

    Aren't we suppose not to talk any leak around here? I'm pretty sure the Mods will say that we should wait for further news!

    I've seen it on youtube! I'm.... slightly confused with the storyline, Things getting twisted as ever!

    It's not illegal as such, and things like these spark discussion, so I see nothing wrong with this.

    I watched it and didn't quite understand the whole thing lol but I won't watch it for a second time to avoid spoiling the story for me. Though I have a feeling that
    we'll be fighting against Kerrigan yet again as Zerg in HotS

    I understand Kuvasz. =)

    From your point of view Kuvasz?

    I agree, Kerrigan should be a "human" Villain or I'll be disappointed

    Pretty sure she was just on her period and those guys just hit her at the wrong time.. Jus sayin.

    And on a second note... Female ghosts must be like...insanely scarey if they have bad periods.

    ...
    There's actually a good chance that ghosts don't get periods. Most of their brain chemistry is regulated anyway, so there is a good probability that they tinkered with stuff like that as well.


    And yes, I took that way too seriously. I know. Taking stuff serious is funny, and it's not like we have any other lore to discuss (at least, no one posts it. I haven't obtained the game yet, so I wouldn't know)

    in-game screenshots:

    ok, ok, this screenshot has me wondering how hard the campaign could possibly be:
    http://www.insidegamer.nl/pc/starcraftiiheartoftheswarm/screenshots/162668

    you can upgrade Zerglings to pop out 3 at a time, AND spawn broodlings after they die. That's 3 lings and 6 broodlings for every 50 minerals. wow. talk about cost-effectiveness. All the marines got were stimpack and combat shields, not +100000% combat effectiveness from their permanent upgrades, lol.

    Maybe swarmlings are weaker than regular zerglings?


    Otherwise, the campaign should be pretty friggin' hard to counter those.

    Q&A says they will only have around 20 missions, which I feel is a ripoff. I want to play with the zerg more, so those 20 missions better be good enough to make up for the 10 less missions in this expansion. 20 missions just doesn't feel like it would allow enough time to really enjoy all the various upgrades the zerg units will be able to gain.

    Love that Kerrigan will be a hero unit within the missions and you can upgrade her with different abilities and upgrades. So looking forward to spamming abilities with her in my attacks, can't wait to see how strong she gets.

    I'm curious what units the zerg will have this time around and what old zerg units will return in the campaign. Screenshots show the ling, bane, roach, hydra, infestor, and queen make their returns.

    I am wondering about the story. Apparently, instead of cerebrates, Kerrigan had Brood Mothers to help control the swarm and some have gone rouge after her loss of power. Kerri also lost most of her memories as Queen B**** of the Universe, she just knows she did terrible things. Her adjutant seems interesting too, as it is a part of Kerrigan and something completely unique in the zerg swarm.

    Can't wait to see what Blizzcon has to offer.

    Just figured out the story. Spoilers ahead so if you havnt beat the game yet...well you suck... but don't read ahead..

    Kerri awakens, **** happens, Jim is told my kerri to leave because the entire universe is on their way to kill her for what she's done somehow knowing she's weak due to her lack of zerg swarm. Jim leaves to get help or something. Kerrigan fights for control of her swarm and gets some back. Jim comes back in a time of need and informs her about zeratuls visions. Blah blah blah some more **** happens. Then eventually in game 3 they fight the hybrids and kerrigan isn't strong enough so she has to go back to the zerg side to get her full power back much to jims dismay. So after a heart warming scene where she escapes his chase to stop her she transforms. In her efforts and utilizing all of the zerg/ghost power she has she dies killing the darkone and leaving jim alone and emo for the rest of his life. Zeratul prolly dies and some point too. Kerrigan was pregneant though and leaves behind a REAL hybrid and Raynor stairs at it for the final scene. Cliff hanger.

    The (new?) queen looks a lot like Baal. Meh.

    Regarding the metagame, I'm thinking with the recent balance changes and the campaign focus on Zerg there'll be more Zerg players out there. That's another meh.

    I already think zerg is a little OP, or at least some units are. Infestors especially. I kinda don't like the fact that they are probably gonna get some buffed *** units in the up coming game too. =/

    All races will get new units for multiplayer, not just zerg. The OP units will probably be kept in the campaign.

    because they're useless. Marauders serve the purpose of mobile anti-armor and they do it with more DPS.
