Yeah, seen this one. I'm shitting my pants over the implications of mobile Photon Cannons.

 

[foodang]

thats freakin sweet i just wish they would show some zerg or terran

 

[betaalpha5]

i actually think it's better that they leak it out. fans get to see a little inside of the game and if something they don't like they can tell blizzard what's wrong and they might fix it. get consumer input.

 

[Vadriel]

I'm so excited...they look to be really beefing up the variability of gameplay with tons and tons of abilities and options. If these trailers are any indicator of how the finished product will turn out, I think SC2 could persevere as long as if not longer than Starcraft 1 has.

Movable cannons FTW.:hxc:

But what's up with those soul hunters.:-/

 

[DoYouPie?]

How dare they reshape and rename our beloved Carriers! Although, I agree that "Tempest" is a pretty good name that does suit the unit well for what it does... but you can count on it that I will never refer to them as "tempests" when i play sc2!

Wow...muta rush is gonna be non existent. Theres looks to be a theme of quick raids instead of all out attacks.

Rushed Phase Cannons, anyone?

Soul Hunters must have some special ability. They are pretty boring at the moment.*

 

[Vadriel]

Soulhunters look like they're especially good against lightly armored units.

 

[Zoltar]

Vadriel showed this to me the other day.
Pretty frigging sweet. Cant wait for it to come out.

If the Terran and Zerg are as sick as the Toss. The gameplay is gonna be wicked.

 

[betaalpha5]

question, do you guys think that the mothership while using the time distortion field can stop a nuke?

 

[Zoltar]

Hm. Good question.
I would think not though. Its seems like the only thing that could take one down easily.

Lockdown-->Nuke. Silly mother ship;there goes 7000+ .

Wow...muta rush is gonna be non existent. Theres looks to be a theme of quick raids instead of all out attacks.

That's what muta harass is all about. But because its a different game, I'm guessing strats wiil be, too. Hopefully pvz won't be so gay.

what if the time distortion lessed up the lockdown missle too?

 

[PauseBreak]

If a nuke was fired at the Mother Ship, the Ghost would still need to be detected before its painting could be finished. I think that the MS should be able to withhold a nuke....but thats peer speculation.

Soul Hunters. Lightning guns. Tempests. Mobile Phase Cannons.

In short, StarCraft II is gonna be pure unadulterated awesome.

 

[Emperor Pan I]

Soul hunters get a stronger attack the more units they kill, aparently. just so you know

 

[Phoenix2003]

I don't think I like the new carriers. I've heard they only attack ground units. I suppose if they were upgraded, or left alone even,(like they needed to be upgraded) I'd probably ignore other air units save the phoenix like I'd ignored scouts in the original SC.

I'm gonna miss the Finger of God.
