    now if only ultralisk can fly and zerglings can ride them. ^^

    ultralisk banelings drop. lol. really how about zerglings can be mounted on top of the ultralisk taking no damage, when the ultra dies they jump off. ^^

    i want the ultralisk to get a hier tier evolution too. 8)

    I... really want to see the idle animations for this thing. Four massive blades... picture the unit just stretching them out when it is not moving around. Menacing.

    This Ultra looks like it could take a Thor in single combat. Yeah, it's smaller, but come on... it has four of those things while the Thor only has two guns.

    How can you be diasapointed when it is ugly? A Ultralisk needs to be ugly...
    Yesterday when I had problems sleeping because i couldnt remember what the Ultralisks name was... then this morning i remembered it, and guess what... It just got revealed on the forum...

    WOW! that is one huge unit.

    i cant wait to see a clearer image version of the ultralisk or better yet on gameplay video. ^^

    i hope the ultralisj can evolve into godzilla. zerg needs a new godzilla like monster. ultra is OLD, i really hope they get some upgrade evolution to make it bigger and much more monstrousity.

    Re: I am Proud to Present! The Ultralisk

    I think if the ultralisk is in the game, it won't look like this. In the lower right corner I think that thing supposed to be a Zergling, and I think that ling looks worse like the current, we have seen in the trailer.
    Soo one chance is that maybe this is a real picture, but from the really early state of the Zerg, or this isn't a pict of blizzard at all... Only edited.
    And Actually I like it, just remove the purple colour. If that supposed to be the team colour, than well.. I wait for a Zerg trailer to judge :) And they should also add some details to the carapace...

    Re: I am Proud to Present! The Ultralisk

    Wasnt it Blizzard who showed the picture? cant we trust Blizzard anymore?
    But perhaps you are right, they showed it to tricks us into thinking that they are working on the game, and not only working on WOW! perhaps the Ultralisk isnt even in??!?!? and they only showed the picture to tricks us?

    Re: I am Proud to Present! The Ultralisk

    and remember Guys, the camera angle is shoot down on a side view. just try to picture the ultra on a normal view...you will only see his huge armour carapace at the top.

    i still rkn blizzard have done a great job. i think the ultralisk looks awesome =]

    Re: I am Proud to Present! The Ultralisk

    Not much to add here. I was thinking the same.

    _________________________________________________

    Just compare these pictures:

    Crypt Lord (from Warcraft 3: Frozen Throne)
    [img width=111 height=163]http://www.battle.net/war3/images/undead/units/animations/cryptlord.gif[/img]

    "Ultralisk" from Starcraft 2
    [img width=325 height=370]http://www.starcraft2forum.org/ice_media/zerg/GDC-2008-Ultralisk.jpg[/img]

    Original Ultralisk
    [img width=130 height=150]http://www.battle.net/images/battle/scc/zerg/pix/units/Ultralisk1.gif[/img]

    _________________________________________________

    And what about the head of the ultralisk? It doesn't look like the original at all anymore:
    [img width=135 height=150]http://www.battle.net/images/battle/scc/zerg/pix/units/Ultralisk2.gif[/img]

    _________________________________________________

    But how is this official? I can't find any official confirmation by Blizzard anywhere.

    Re: I am Proud to Present! The Ultralisk

    No topics are made on battle.net about it yet. I just checked. When was this iamge first seen?
    I think that if it was released less then a day ago there is a slight chance that nobody has posted about it yet, but I can't imagine anyone waiting longer then that.

    I think that even the Ultralisk from SC1 looks like the Crypt Lord...
