Starcraft 2 Information

Yes thats the one.

Although, there is also corsairs, carriers, and dragoons in the colossus concept art so the presence of wraiths really don't mean that much anymore.

 

They were still vital to the Terran army. They were the first aerial unit for Terran, could Cloak for very long times with 250 Energy when upgraded, had a decent air to ground attack when upgraded, and a very lovely air to air attack.

 

And they looked sexy

 

:>

 

My brother continually tells me there was a unit called the "Tempest" that acts as the Protoss Carrier for this game. I can't find it anywhere on Starcraft2.com but tons of other people are telling me that the Protoss Tempest exists. :S

And Terran better get something new besides the Reapers. The game play video showed how when the ghost paints a nuke it's this giant round red ring now. I always liked painting my nuke on a bleeding zerg unit or something else red so that it would be hard to find and stop.

 

He clearly isn't living and breathing starcraft 2. And the nuke thing will be a small red dot for enemy players, it's a large thing for you and maybe your allies

 

The large thing has a timer so you know when it's going to launch. I just moved my Ghost away after his gun came back down and the dot was gone.
Is anybody else finding that they scan the spot after just to see the destruction?

Congrats on 2000 posts Paragon.

 

oh i scan the spot many times just to see what died. or I just walk the ghost back over.

 

what i think starcraft 2 should have is a classic mode where all the old units and how they looked and stuff all in multiplayer so u can choose between two modes u know what i mean?

 

yea man itll be a good idea

there's been some discussion here:

There are plenty new protoss structures around the base we see in the gameplay videos.
There are also some terran machines doing something to mineral fields at the beginning, when the fleet arrives at the base. Maybe they are just doodads, dont know.

 

We know the marines are coming back. But what i noticed (because i am who i am) is that death animations seem like they depend on how much damage is dealt. Like when the Coloss' beam killed a marine, he just fell down. But when the reaver's scarab hit a marine, he blew up into pieces. Maybe all of the units have multiple death animations now. I want to know what ghosts look like now. Cause the Zealots look alot different than in SC.

 

I saw some marines being torn by half by the zealots. Just look closely.

 

Yeah I remember catching that in the 20 minute video.

 

Haha yeah, but hey, it's all in the strategy =P. Now I'm not 100 percent, but I'm fairly sure that I read somewhere that in order to phase them in at a location other than the Gateway, you must upgrade the Gateway to a Warp Gate (??).

EDIT:
Yeah, sorry if my post was a bit repetitive or uninformative, but I just checked back on SC2's website where I thought I read that in the first place and yup, that's the deal; Gateway->Warp Gate->Psionic Matrix.

 

Just to point out, Medics are also confirmed to be in the game. It's in one of the interviews at E3.


Bonus 200 minerals for an informative post.

 

Or lock the prism. That'd make a mess, cheaper and faster haha.

 

Do you have a link to a video or something? I would really like to read this.

 

An aerial battle over a canyon, pretty nice.
The grass seems to looks less wc3 than on other screenshots.

Good find. 100 mineral bonus.

 

Quite nice picture, although I have to agree with the comments - the tanks do have kind of a strange angle.
