metadigital Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 Then it's a sequel for all! Conspiracy cracked! World of Blizzardcraft One game to rule them all, and in the soulless RTS, bind them. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
Tale Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 One game to rule them all, and in the soulless RTS, bind them. I thought Gas Powered games was trying to make another RPG, not an RTS. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
metadigital Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 I didn't think we were talking about any particular game. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
kumquatq3 Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 Blizzard (hopefully) isn't stupid enough to waste their time with anything other than the goods. Bingo That and I have waited a damn decade to see Raynor kick some ass, to see Kerrigan's fate, to know what the hell was with Duran, to see if Fenix is really dead this time (I miss Duke already), and to check in with Artanis. I'm owed. F it, time to play through the campaign

I'm owed. F it, time to play through the campaign That is exactly what I am looking forward to. Plus some crazy multiplayer. But I will play through the entire campaign first, no doubt, then proceed to get my ass kicked on B-net. Man, I will be so crushed if its not Starcraft 2.

I'm owed. F it, time to play through the campaign I really don't think Fenix'll be making a comeback. Once you die as a dragoon it's game over man Duke was an idiot. Alexei Stukov on the other hand was cool when your mind works against you - fight back with substance abuse!
kumquatq3 Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 I really don't think Fenix'll be making a comeback. Once you die as a dragoon it's game over man Never count out a character named "Fenix" After all, there has to be new units, right? I'm owNed. Fixed. It always amazes me that you became a mod. What, Baley was busy?
Shryke Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 I really don't think Fenix'll be making a comeback. Once you die as a dragoon it's game over man Never count out a character named "Fenix" After all, there has to be new units, right? He's already come back once. I don't think they'll be doing it again Maybe they'll bring back Tassadar or something. Who knows? That'd be pretty weird actually... when your mind works against you - fight back with substance abuse!

He turned into a force of pure light and dark templar energies along with his Carrier and destroyed the original Overmind. There is nothing to come back. Entaro Tassadar!
Shryke Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 oh yeah, that's right forgot about that whole cutscene well maybe Artanis then when your mind works against you - fight back with substance abuse!
Tale Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 Starcraft 2 is official. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Calax Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 oh sweet f****** jesus it's starcraft... Did they have a release date? Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.

kumquatq3 Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 (edited) The lighting effects are nifty, but the new engine seems to lack the "gritty" look of the original. But, it's not finished, so whatever. The lead was the guy behind Red Alert 2, so that's sorta promising EDIT: That named a unit after Fenix, so, I'm guessing he's dead dead Edited May 19, 2007 by kumquatq3
kumquatq3 Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 also, anyone know what the marine says in the trailer?
Tigranes Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 I'm currently translating the Korean in unit briefings, will post soon. The marine just says something like.. literally is "At last, what will come has come", or "what must come hsa come"; it's spoken in a vernacular tone similar to say, a hardened American soldier. Conveys something like "At last... it's time." (dramatically) Let's Play: Icewind Dale Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Icewind Dale II Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Divinity II (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG1 (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG2 (In Progress)

Tigranes Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 Meh. I guess no need, then. Most of it was covered in English commentary anyway - it was just those advisor-types popping in with comments like "Sire, the Zergs are closing in" and "move out men!".

kumquatq3 Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 most surprising thing: No new race. Not literally said, but strongly implied: How many races are in StarCraft II? In StarCraft II, players will see the return of the Protoss, Terran, and Zerg races. Our goal is to ensure that all the factions in the game play even more distinctly from one another than in the original StarCraft, while still maintaining the fine balance that helped make StarCraft such a classic. We're also introducing a number of new units to each race, as well as modifying some of the familiar units returning in StarCraft II. With these design refinements and the new features we have planned for the single-player and multiplayer elements of the game, StarCraft II will offer a next-generation StarCraft experience.
Tale Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 Since it's only the second game, it makes sense. Warcraft took until WC 3, Command and Conquer took until their third Tiberium universe game (technically their 5th depending on what timeline theory you subscribe to). No point in introducing new factions while you still have room to refine the stories and armies of the first factions. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
