Swarm Guardian in Video

http://youtube.com/watch?v=wEb-lQhBmSo&feature=user

Its only a brief sighting.

Also, is it me or do them Zerglings running around look horrible?

 

It looks fine. Zerglings skip instead of run which makes them move unevenly. It probably makes them harder to target as well.

And the guardian looks really menacing, especially its movement. I just love the corruptor and the guardian's animation. But do note that the bunkers have the old model so these videos are about 1 month old.

 

Yea definitly outdated.

The Zerglings seem to tilt to the side like little race cars sometimes and seem too long meaning their movement doesn't look natural as it did in other videos showing PvZ, maybe they were messing with another Zergling model or movement script.

Or maybe they didn't scrip every part of the Zergling as its body parts didn't move accordingly when it turned and stuff.

 

the swarm guardians are like spaghetti lobsters in motion lol nice find...

 

That video was quite awesome, the Swarm Guardian's attack animation is quite awesome and i love the blue team colour for zerg

 

Ah, they're serpentine now! That explains why we all had so much trouble identifying them. They look pretty good in my opinion, they just shouldn't get too carried away with the wavy movement, as it could easily get too busy or awkward. Still, looks pretty sweet at the moment. Valuable find, Psionicz!

About the Zerglings, I love their new hopping animation. We saw it clearer in their announcement video among other things, but it still looks great here. It's like the Broodlings of StarCraft1 with the staggered movement, but it fits the Zerglings much better and gives them a much creepier look and feel.

 

Not that, when they're all clusted in this old video it looks ugly, its obviously changed tho so no worries :]

 

are these exclusive videos from korean pro-gamers illegally scooped by a korean paparazzi?? lol

 

You can clearly see recording is allowed :]

 

too bad it was taken with poor quality, perhaps taken by phone.. if they only have it footage or perhaps they did and doesnt want to cover since its possibly just beta .. + copyrights and testings are still on the go

 

nice...NICE!! i love the movement of the guardian and the corruptor. it just looks so...AWESOME!! LOL xD

 

The Swarm Guardian looks awsome! I like very much the movement anim. It's perfect. I think the first pics of the guardian, that appeared 2 weeks ago or so, were from this vid.

Nice find, Psionicz!

 

lobsters for dinner ever1!!! ^_^

 

I know this is slightly off topic but did anyone else like the look of the zerg base, and the creep?
I for one quite liked that part of the movie the best, but that may be because I could hardly make the units.
Great find Psionicz

 

Recording is NOT allowed. All of these videos are leaks, not supposed to happen, but Blizzard knows they will happen, so...

Anyway this is clearly the video from which our leaked screenshots of the Swarm Guardian originated from, and now people can stop claiming that there was an Ultralisk in there. There was, but there were two Swarm Guardians.

 

lol I thought the swarm guardians were nullifiers the first time I saw the video and kept wondering when the guardians had appeared. Then I realized how stupid I was for not wondering why there were 2 'nullifiers' in a TvZ game.

I love the animation for them and it looks completely natural.

@2:55
Ultra: "OMG a nuke! run!"
*BOOM**blinding light*
Ultra: "nm, it was just a flash bomb, keep moving"

 

The Ultralisks took that nuke like true Spartans.

 

I seem to remember nukes doing 800 damage or something so I don't know how they survived. It doesn't really make sense anyway so I think ultras will have less hitpoints than nuke damage, in the end.

 

Nukes do 400 damage, not 800.

 

Meh why call it a nuke then. I know it comes from the technology and the mechanism but most people associate the word with a devastating missile that erases everything in a large area.
