Looks like you shopped a zealot into a space background, I can also- but just barley, make out the in game menu. Nice try tho.

It looks like the Protoss interface with a sunlight effect in either Protoshop or Paint Shop Pro. And the unit that is selected is a normal Protoss Dragoon in the unit portrait but it shows a picture of Zealot (which looks exactly like the the model in the Original StarCraft Protoss Campaign animation) near the middle of the screen.

1. You musta been on crack if you made this.
2. Who would play a game that's soo dark?
3. I'm pretty sure no one else is going to get fooled :\

I can't even tell where the zealot is. all i see, besides the console and minimap, is a bright light and what looks like a asteroid.

it's a picture taken from actual Starcraft 2 gameplay. The picture shows a zealot in 3D runing on an early alpha game engine, whle theres a dragon selected in the background, the effects are all from the engine itself which has volumetric lights, shadow maping and so on but the picture is actually darken in image editing software for obvious reasons!

y does it use the same game interface( the EXACT one) from the previous one, if its supposed to be a 2nd starcraft? Slickr your antics are ANNOYING, come up with something better cause your stuff is starting to piss me off. At least try to make it a little more reasonable and believable, cause its not working right now
it uses almoust the same interface as starcraft, imo blizzard dev team decided on this as starcraft features an easy but powerful game interface. There are 2 more option that are implemented within the interface, something like in warcraft 3 where you click on interface icon and it shows you other stuff like where the minerals are and so on...

If you want us to believe you, then brighten the image so we can actually see it.

I dodged it up a bit, and my result,

It's just a normal SC screen minimized, darkened witha len flare set to yellow added. The background is totally unclear though. SC2 image my ass.

Nice try, bub.

EDIT:
I see the Zealot, but it's the Zealot from the original Starcraft loading screen. This is pathetic, really.

i did not darken the image and i can't undone that but i can say that more pictures coming soon!
what unit do you want to see? note only basic units as advanced units are still beeing developed and are not finished and are not high quality 3D models!

the zealot you see on thr image contains more polygons that all the starcraft game did

Get laser eye surgery, then get a pair of the best glasses money can buy.
That zealot is the same zealot on the Original SC loading screen

Use paint or something and maximize the picture.

The zealot on the image looks like the starcraft loading screen zealot beacose IT IS ZEALOT. Zealot look well zealot, though starcraft had 2D graphics and for today technology extremly low quality. The zealot present in the image is from actual gameplay.

Note the in-game menu. And a zealot with a sun next to him
the sun you are refering as close to the zealot is actually far, though beacose the image is darkened the sun looks close and too bright!

EDIT 2 - Finished.

Okay... Let be break it down.... THAT IS A LENSFLARE DONE BY PHOTOSHOPtm AND THE ZEALOT FROM THE PROTOSS VICTORY SCREEN!!!! It's not even complex!!! It's just a photoshopped Starcraft 1 screencap!! It's SO poorly done, I can make one RIGHT NOW!!

That's right folks!! Even YOU can make a 'Legimate Starcraft II' Screen cap! HERE'S HOW!!! First you need the following items!
1 Starcraft/Broodwar CD
Photoshop(or GIMP)
10 minutes of your life
And... A Starcraft Victory/Defeat PictureIf you have the provided materials, then let's get started! First grab your Victory/Defeat Picture. I'll use this one:

5847

Next: Either run Starcraft/Broodwar and take a screen cap, or if your too lazy to do that(like me), type in "Starcraft" In google image and search for ingame screenies. I'll use this one:

5848

Put both in Photoshop separately like so:

http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/6156/step1bc4.png (http://imageshack.us)

Next either cut out the Zerg and copy it, or why not erase the background like so:

http://img243.imageshack.us/img243/1214/step2mk3.png (http://imageshack.us)

Copy the image and paste in the battleground like so:

http://img224.imageshack.us/img224/2276/step3ns6.png (http://imageshack.us)

Make a copy of both layer in case if you screw up. Also make a layer, paint it black, set the Opacity at 80%, and combine it with copy layers and go to FILTER>RENDER>LIGHTING EFFECTS

http://img150.imageshack.us/img150/7114/step4pk7.png (http://imageshack.us)

On it Put the Style on RBG Light, remove two, and shine it on your creature. Make sure to make the Exposure and Ambience level the way you like it. It will turn out like so:

http://img169.imageshack.us/img169/7517/step5pg7.png (http://imageshack.us)

Finally, time to rise the sun. Just click FILTER>RENDER>LENS CLARE

http://img246.imageshack.us/img246/531/step6su7.png (http://imageshack.us)

http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/3494/step7bp8.png (http://imageshack.us)

But wait! After you put the Lens flare, it's white and not red! That's eazy, go to IMAGE>ADJUSTMENTS>COLOR BALANCE. Turn the Red right and the other two left. Click accept and it'll end up something like this:

http://img149.imageshack.us/img149/3889/step8ni1.png (http://imageshack.us)

And that's that! Just to compare: Mine is on the top on the other is on the bottem:

http://img241.imageshack.us/img241/1583/sciiimagefw0.png (http://imageshack.us) http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/1707/sc2scrnshotcmzltji1.jpg

Mine is not as 'authentic' as the other, but it's just about the same frikkin' thing! I messed up on the lens flare because it was supposed to be behind the hydra to make it more 'realistic'. Dispite that, that's what these images are. Just Photoshopped screencaps.

P.S. I'm just proving that the image is obviously a fake. It's not mean't for insulting or degrading anyone.

P.S.S. I just wasted an hour on this post. Yeah I have no life ^^;

Whoop-de-fucking-doo. Q3 2007? That has got to be the most random business date ever. First off, games are rarely released in Q3, developers wait for early-mid Q4 (see: black friday). Two, blizzard will announce their unnanouced titles in mid-Q1. Three, get your punctuation and spelling right. "imabses?" No, sir, its imbecile. Doy. Furthermore, I doubt anyone here wants to see anymore of your "1337" paint shop pro sk1llz with lens flares and the like.

SlickR,
Trust me, this isn't the real sc2, no matter how much you play pranks, or found it off the internet. It isn't, because Blizzard is keeping StarCraft 2, a non- preview until its done and is in BETA testing. Blizzard isn't like that just showing some picture then puting it on the internet when its not nearly done.
Hunny please, faking is worse then saying, "hay look what i found that said it was starcraft 2". I agree with most people that disagrees you.

If anything, they wouldn't even use the same engine. The only thing that might look REMOTELY the same is the command menu, and EVEN THAT looked dated. Seriously, things have changed since then. It would look shinier, and zealots, last time I checked, DON'T TAKE UP AN EIGHTH OF THE FUCKING SCREEN! I saw the terrain, there. Also, if you're such an "inside man", GIVE US A FUCKING SOURCE! You're nothing more than the next generation of tin-foil-hat-wearing DUMBASSES! I know you don't work for Blizzard. I know you don't have "inside information". Stonehand produced an almost IDENTICAL version of what you displayed. DAMMIT! This idiot just doesn't give up. Also, even if this WERE "inside info", NOBODY FUCKING CARES! Most of us already made up our minds we're probably going to hate the game anyway.

Like that rubs off on any of us. Why would Blizz release 'censored' SC II pics? That'd be stupid. They'd release a teaser, yes, but they wouldn't be so lazy as to censor the pictures, they'd let us fanboys get whipped up into a frenzy. I'm sure they know how to work the crowd by now. Relic release teasers through cameo races and obscure background units but they never censor anything, they leave stuff for the eagle eyed to spot. That doesn't mean darkening it!

Also, they'd release info officially, not through an 'insider.' Why would they do it officially? So it sounds credible, not like someone pretending to be from Blizzard. Sound familiar?

Dude, your facade is about as substantial as a sheet of tissue paper. Anyone who actually connects to a community as part of the company wouldn't be so demeaning. Just look at any of Buggo's posts on Relicnews. She gets a fair bit of stick every so often but, (as is also part of the job) she doesn't react to it in such a demeaning way: "bad kid, you no like so you no get candy."

Please, c'mon, you're smarter than this surely.
