Its funny cause its true.:P

Edited.

I have not clicked the link get. But I watched two movies on youtube. Locked really nice to me. =)

Hell, its been long wait. (or somthuing) ^^ haha.

"Hell, it's about time."

Cat n mice is gonna be kinda rigged with that huge ultralisk...

I CAN'T WAIIIIIIT!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Blizzard games are always ridiculously balanced)

Man, the first time i had played starcraft was like.... 10 years ago....
yes seriously ... i can't wait either....

I started reading the starcraft book nova, so I'm planning on buying that too, especially if it comes out for xbox 360. (i'm not much of a PC gamer)

Hi!

We already have a thread on this!

^_^

Didn't even notice that...

Merged.

Dark templars don't look as cool as they used to IMO... And the mothership is a little funky too =)

Ghost sniper ability is really flashy, but I wonder what its usefulness will be in an actual game... Can you snipe off ultralisks?

You can brood ultralisk so you might as well be able to snipe em.

Lurkers look funky.
Vikings are blocky.
Reapers SUCK. They are seriously trying to force you to use reapers now. [Read the SC2 forums to understand the situation.]
Infester is ugly.
Terran needs ATA Superiority. Viking doesn't count.

Phoenix are pretty cool looking, same with those ray thingies...

And what's the deal with reapers?

I don't particularly like the Phoenix but I think the Warp rays are going to make protoss vs T / P VERY interesting.

How do you think motherships will play into the game? All depends on how much resources is needed huh. I can guess that alot of strategies and build orders might revolve around this unit in the future.

I wish they would change the name of the mothership to something more EPIC.

The mothership will totally obliterate bad players. But anyone with some common sense will be able to counter it quite easily...Protoss just need their own mothership or a few warp rays to counter. Terran will use several yamatos.

Zerg need skourge back...Skourge just scream zerg...And it was a nice contrast to see these huge scary battleships tearing through the zerg and out of nowhere these tiny little cheap pieces of .... blow the crap out of the superpowers of the battle, instantly changing the tide

Mmm scourge... They countered Carriers rather well if I recall, not too great against BC's because their attacks aren't delayed like carriers (interceptors). So far I don't know much about the zerg units yet.

Scourges are mainly used for sci vessles in zvt aren't they?

Skourge pretty much counter anything that has wings and alota hp :|

Iunno I just think Skourge would be the ultimate counter for the mothership.

I think so too, i'm guessing the mothership will be really expensive and the perfect counter to that would be a bunch of tiny cheap suicidal winged aliens :)

What about that time stop ability, if you time it right, can't you trap like a whole horde of Scourge and shoot them down in leisure?

Which is why Scourges are cheap and the Mothership (will most likely) be expensive. I'm sure spell will need to be upgradable too.

What about that time stop ability, if you time it right, can't you trap like a whole horde of Scourge and shoot them down in leisure?

I think it only stops missle attacks like darkswarm did in starcraft 1?

out of curiousity.. does anyone play the original sc? I wouldn't mind battle.netting with someone.. :P

I play the original starcraft but I don't really battle.net

They have the Zerg sector up for Starcraft II, but last time I checked there was only two improvements...well, if you have improved graphics and a hell lot of units to update, I would expect it to take this long...

STALKER

Check the sc2 forums not the regular pages for real updates...they have 40 something sets of Q&As already done. Lot of information that changes almost every other week.

That would explain why I'm so behind - I don't usually check the forums
