Eli Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 3:14 - Protoss colossus - huge unit that can blast out dual lasers and use long legs to traverse differences in terrain height - in the demo two of them obliterate about fifty or so zerglings. Wow, Protoss is going to rape everyone... :pinch:@Eli: I nominate you fastest post updater. :heart: I agree. Protoss sound pretty killer now. 3:15 - Zerglings can mutate into suicidal bomb things thar roll across the ground - very powerful explosions. Colossus using new IK system to move across differences in terraing height. Colossus extremley weak against air strike - New unit for protoss - Pheonix - can overcharge guns for multiple projectile blast - but after blast the ship is rendered inert for a short period.

Showing phoenix units failing to destroy terran battle cruisers - new protoss unit - Warprey - flying unit that does increased damage the longer it hits a target with it's continuous blue laser.

Osiris Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Good RTS's are usually rare and always welcome. Whilst ive forgotten much of the events of starcraft, more indepth play, story and RTSing in the SC universe should be good fun. Although my enthusiasm would have run alot higher for a Diablo III or maybe even a SC MMO. hrmm, now ive lost my inspiration to play this overpriced copy of Diablo II I purchased the other day...never quite finished it back in the day, rumour of a Diablo III gave me the inckling to hack and slash my way through the oldschool one, but now I just feel jibbed that I payed so much for an old game Back to events, what are the graphics like, Warcraft III style 3d esque? Edit - NM I forgot your not actually there, guess ill wait for the IGN guy to comment on it Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/561540-starcraft-2-official/page/6/#findComment-588564256 Share on other sites More sharing options...

No pics yet :( 3:18 - warprey also very effective against structures - very vulnerable to small unit fire - shws warpreys getting wiped out by terran marines. Physics system lets debris from warpreys roll down a ramp. Showing one more unit - warped in in a serious of cubes - giant floating base - called a protoss mothership - can only have 1 at a time - cost big resources - special abilities include timebomb that slows all enemy missiles inside - shows terran missle launcher shooting in projectiles that stop in the field before they reach the ship - when field ends missiles drop the ground - planet cracker attack - giant lasers stream from ship to ground - ship can be moved around while planet cracker laser is active - the ship looks like a metallic, triangular sand dollar - mothership can create a black hole anywhere it wannts to - creates distortion that actually sucks ships in and destroys them - in the demo the black hole destroyed four terran battle cruisers in about ten seconds.

Eli Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 God this game sound wicked. I need a new computer :D 3:23 - now showing terran and protoss fight - marines and zealots clashing on the ground - mothership and battle crusers in the air - framerate seems relatively stable as more units stream in - hard to tell - about 100 units on screen right now - a few of the new protoss units just came in - nuclear launch detected warning - every unit on screen destroyed - three nukes were launched at once - then zergs rush in and spell "GG" while turning into suicidal bombs.

Lighthalzen Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Protoss Mothership is overkill........... New race is gonna be Protoss and Zerg combined... and Zerg + Terrains thanks to Kerrigan breeding babies! :woot: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/561540-starcraft-2-official/page/6/#findComment-588564267 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now showing a giant rush of zerglings - probably over 100 of them, swarming with no slowdown - mroe character art - finishes with the StarCraft II logo. And with that....I think I'm off to bed. I got a new fridge and stove coming in tomorrow morning.

Osiris Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Maybe Blizzard is adding some real dimensions to the races, ie Protoss have a skewed tech dominance, Zerg have overwheling numbers, and the Terran, well the Terran have that never die always come back human attitude we like to imbue in our games, music and movies :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/561540-starcraft-2-official/page/6/#findComment-588564277 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helba Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Oh yeah. Hopefully we'll be getting a visual leak pretty soon here. Lol. Or maybe even an official release? Who knows? Maybe the Starcraft II Blizz page will be up by tomorrow.

VipeNess Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 April 11, 2007 - Put on your skeptical goggles because rumors are swirling that StarCraft 2 is finally a reality. The Team Liquid forums have translated an article from Korean site Fighter Forum that says StarCraft 2 is on the way and a beta will be released at the end of 2007.According to Fighter Forum, StarCraft 2 continues the story of the original and adds a new race based on Kerrigan, making a total of four races. While that wouldn't be totally off the mark, we figured the new race would be more the super-race mix between Zerg and Protoss rather than Zerg and Terran or at least the mystically advanced Xel'Naga. The three older tribes will each be receiving around two additional units. The report also claims that Blizzard plans to shut down its original StarCraft servers in order to ensure the success of the sequel. As popular as StarCraft was on these shores, it doesn't come close to the enthusiasm the game still enjoys in Asia, where televised, professional matches are held regularly. Blizzard has an event coming up in Korea where they are expected to make a large announcement, so it could very well be that the company has chosen the area where StarCraft is the most popular to announce its sequel. As of this writing, Blizzard could not be reached for comment.
