STARCRAFT 2 ANNOUNCED!!!!!

[neutralizer]

The units look weird. They look more blocky than they did in Starcraft and the colors... so cartoony.

 

[trmiv]

Crap now I have to build a new PC so I can get back into PC gaming for this.

 

[gamepad]

The graphics probably look much better in action.

Edit: WTF, this looks exactly like Tiberium Wars...

Eh, it's still a little blocky but at least it doesn't seem like they were trying to make it cartoony, like they did with WC3. I do miss the good old sprites, though.

I think it's the colors, and the reflection... the ships look like toys

Seriously. WAY too blocky. Zerg looks pretty awesome though. 🙂

The space platform-type map setting matches the terran units too closely. I can hardly tell whats a unit and what is a part of map-eye-candy.

LOL, the haters come out so quickly.

I have not yet been disappointed by any product I bought from Blizzard.

IGN is now down for me, but is that the "Real Men Drill Deep" one? Made me laugh out loud too. 😀

omg, i think i found the cure to the WoW addiction and it is Starcraft II !!!!

 

[irishScott]

Wow. They really fcked up the Siege Tanks. They looked so bada$$, and now they look like, well, a blocky Z-Bot (if anyone remembers these)

I like it, I will definately buy it. I would have to actually sit down and play the game to see how the units handle. But from the graphics, they look clunky.

Looks like from the strategy side its going to be many small units will counter the non-splash, sustained damage units like the protoss warp ray. The Warp Ray had relatively low HP I thought, especially for a protoss unit. Seems like they added alot more splash damage units though, like the zergling suicide tech. Playing will be tricky.

It's good that protoss has something to counter siege tanks. Protoss was always at a disadvantage to terran push.

I really hope this game runs in widescreen!

 

[Acanthus]

Power overwhelming!

 

[OverVolt]

Mutas look SOOOO badass

Looks like marines have some sort of shield-tech.

Dunno, but they are starting to take notice on their site.

[Aimster]

looks blah

units look too big
too much color.

 

[Rickten]

I think the expectations people will have for this game are going to be impossible to fulfill; however, I see this as being a huge event selling millions of copies in the first weekend kinda like a movie premiere.

 

[swtethan]

Where does it hurt?




*needle sound* ahhh yeahhh
