Protoss is more "eye candy" than the other 2 races. That is why they introduce them 1st.
People wanna be impressed by crazy colourful pewpewlazeralienzomgun instead of seeing normal bullets/rockets from terrans or tentacle/slime stuff from zerg.

Remember the movie scene where a few marines went to a station to bomb it? There is one marine removed his headgear to drink coke, then the hydralisk mucous dripped on his head and he went screaming in pain.
I guess hydralisk's mucous is acidic.

Reaver drop will remain in SC2. US Pc gamer showed a screenshot of Reavers dropped in the middle of a base.
Colossus is anti-lightarmor ground units la. I dont think its gonna be a good siege unit. BTW, i heard Colossus is gonna be a expensive high tier unit.
If you want anti-building unit with high mobility, theres another air unit designed specifically for it.

QUOTE US Pc gamer showed a screenshot of Reavers dropped in the middle of a base QUOTE I disagree. How many of us actually use reavers as an anti-building siege unit? More often than not we use them as counters to swarms of small units (e.g. marines/zerglings/hydralisks). Ooops, my bad. I mean the reaver drop was in the middle of a bunch of SCVs.

QUOTE The thing I can't understand is how Raynor can talk to Zeratul, because obviously the latter don't have ears. Unless the psionics also work on soundwaves... haha Im sure protoss have some hearing organs. Just that it is not visible, hmm something like the reptiles. If they can't listen, they could have just died from all kind of stupid scenarios. (Getting run over by a vehicle from behind, coz cant listen to its movement..etc)

Blizzard's games always aim for maximum compatibility for wide range of PCs. Wide range of PC=Profit.
Unlike stupid FPS creators who purposely raise up min requirements to promote latest graphic cards.

Hydralisk spine needle shooting animation looks kinda crappy now.
Btw, is that a burrowing Ultralisk? WTF. How can you hide a thing of that size?
What is that creature that spray stuff on terran building? I dont think its Zerg Queen. Some forums name it the Infestor.

QUOTE In the build we were shown at the Press Tour, there are two main uses of the Queen: Against Terran or Protoss she will stay in the bases you occupy, and build the defences as well as creep. The 1x1 tile Swarm Clutches (that could be 2x2 in next build according to Dustin) are very powerful in tight formations together with Shreikers, albeit quite costly. For a mirror fight against the Zerg, she can be an excellent offensive unit, not unlike a Hero. Using the Deep Tunnel ability to teleport straight into your opponent base and create toxic creep under his workers, or lay swarm clutches on his creep are interesting ways to use your Queen. On the other hand, it might turn out to be a bug, and the release version of StarCraft 2 might only allow tunnelling to friendly buildings, and forcing any "Offensive-Queen"-user to work with Nydus Worms. http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/news/37487/St...g-Queen-DetailsSounds perfectly logic to me. Zerg queen should be something like an Alien Queen from the movies. Not some flying pesky annoying caster

Maybe Xelnaga is gonna be a campaign-only race like the Nagas in WC3. Not available in normal ladder game.

Lol, they are trying the WOW formula. Releasing X-pacs slowly while updating major content in between x-pacs.
I actually like it this way. That is one good way to keep one game alive and interesting for a long time.
