Hello everyone. By now we have many details, information, videos, images and some of us even played starcraft 2 at blizzcon. So the question is how do you like starcraft 2 where is is now and where it is going?

Just to remind on some details: Blue and yellow minerals, cliff jumping/climbing, warp-in, unlimited selection of units, new abilities, Thor, Carrier, etc of units... Lots of new units and upgrades.....

I like it. It'll be different, though. I'm concerned with the Thor, the pace at which blizzard has said sc2 will be played, and some of the finer points of individual units.

All in all, though, I am as excited as ever to finally have sc 2 closing in.

Unlimited select is not a permanent feature. They havent decided yet.

Get your facts straight.

Seeing as the in-game box fits 24 units, I'm guessing Blizz will go with 24 :D

I'm more excited for Halo 3 and Call of Duty 4.

I'm still undecided about SC2. I'm not that excited about it, SC is a great game but so far nothing about the game other than the advancement of the story plot really excites me.

As a matter of fact, I don't know jack about the game. The only new unit I know is the reaper, and everything else I have no clue about. It's my own way of having a genuine "OMGWTFISTHATHOLYSHIT!!!" reaction.

The complaints about zealots being ninjas and stalkers being crypt fiends is dumb. Some of the "problems" are just personal complaints.

Um...that's what the thread is for, dude. :P

The Zealot argument, I'm with you. Some of his complaints I disagree with, but for the most part, he's on the money.

I like the game so far, although I'm not too happy with the terrain. Some things, like the background for the space platform tileset just don't seem right, although the water in the badlands/jungle/wherever screenshot looks awesome. I also like how the protoss are beginning to look up, not quite the same with the terrans, though. Their buildings look too much like the offspring of safety scissors and a tin box. Especially with the rounded edges and such. Needs to look tougher, and the siege tank needs to be redesigned to something that does not resemble an Octorok.

But generally, <3 SC2

The Siege Tank needs to be the original turned 3D. No exceptions, just fucking make it the same.

What I found disturbing were his points on how hard it is to see units & micro.

Also the automation part, but we've been debating that already.

Yeah, the original Siege Tank from SC is the best.

They're not his complaints. They're complaints from the SC community at large. He says he disagrees with some of them. The Zealot one is stupid, though. I think they look pretty cool and the Colossus complaint is stupid. So, War Of The Worlds was written 109 years ago. Who gives a fuck?

yeah, but theres no tripods in the book. It's the movie thats popular anyway. But yes, I agree with you, the Colossus complains are senseless.

Like I said, some of them make no sense, but he's got several good points.

I believe that the main reason for this is because we aren't used to seeing the new graphics and units. Most of us have played Starcraft for hours and hours, so we can identify the units just fine. We just haven't had the practice. That and the resolution is shitty.

That video makes me think one thing... that guy has too much time on his hands.
