we've all seen the Terran campaign style so far; walking around the Hyperion, talking to folks, etc. how do you think Zerg will work? they don't exactly have any spacefaring 'ships', or anyone that can really even speak to send you on your missions, etc.
The Hive? Kerrigan's Lair? In an Overlord (see relative Overlord riding thread)? Also, you could have missions that explore the anatomy of a hydralisk. Pretty pimp! Bio lab, anyone?
Actually, this could be considered a separate post. It's in the correct forum, and it has a separate topic. It's the briefing room and user interface rather than the actual storyline. But thanks for keeping an eye out?
Maybe Kerrigan replaces Cerebrates with Infested Terrans and talks to them that way? The briefings are probably on Char, in the Primary Hive Cluster, which is where many of the previous briefings took place. Who knows? Blizzard is going to (once again) pull off some crazy kick a** stuff that no one has ever thought of.
Who: Kerrigan, Player(new overmind), Succubus, Independent newborn cerebrates Where: Infested Space Floating Fortress.. When: 10 years after broodwar Kerrigan being the queen and operations commander briefing with the user as a new born overmind.. with extra characters maybe like the succubus... and maybe the illegitimate child of kerrigan and raynor ^_^ hahahaha.... Its been 10years of spacey loneliness for our queen,, i wonder how hard it was for her to withold human instincts and sexual needs hahaha maybe thats one probable reason she'll have raynor along her side once more....
The zerg should develop so far as a distinct race. IMHO you guys are pushing to much to have the zerg and the terran together. Why not have the zerg and the protoss together with infested zealots walking around? That would be a good idea IMHO. As for the story we all see that the other races have all sorts of distinct characters while the zerg have only Kerrigan. Why not have a new player in town for the zerg Those are just some ideas...
yea. a new infested terran hero would be cool. it'd be especcially cool if he had the elephant nose thing.
How about the story line? That is how this thread started... From my point of view the zerg should evolve somehow into a more stable race with a hierarchy or something. Also to make it more interesting we should have some problems inside the zerg race. A different faction that will not a agree the Queen's actions To add up some spice we could even see some nice experiments from the zerg on the terran/protoss... think about zerg using technology for some of their hybrid creatures/structures... We already saw that in SC...
Zerg already had a hierarchy. Pre-Kerrigan: Overmind -> Cerebrates -> Overlords/Queens -> the actual fighting units Post-Kerrigan: Kerrigan -> Overlords/Queens -> the actual fighting units The only big difference of the Zerg hierarchy, if that's what you'd like to call it, is the replacement of the Overmind by Kerrigan and the removal of the Cerebrates. Kerrigan killed all the Cerebrates, remember? Also, there cannot be a different faction inside the Zerg race that does not obey Kerrigan. The actual fighters of the Zerg have no mind or thoughts. Therefore, they cannot rebel unless controlled by a Cerebrate or whatever else being that has the psionic power to control them, possibly a machine as well, like the psi emitter. The Terran and Protoss have done some experiments on the Zerg, but I could hardly see it the other way around. The Zerg do not need technology. They do not have the means to create it, which is why they evolve.
The zerg already have spacefaring ships, its the first organism they infested when they were on zerus. You can find it here: http://starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Zerg So perhaps the briefing room could be in there?
It doesn't necessarily have to be in space. The Zerg briefing room being located on the ground or underground makes the races that more unique.
