WHY I HATE STARCRAFT 2 - Page 2

The units are big as hell and take up a large portion of the screen. Exactly like warcraft.

Actually it's not the units that are large, it's the buildings that are small. A Nexus is so small while it's supposed to be a huge temple or pyramid of some sort.

Ohrly? Like Xel'Naga temple in SCBW? It's large but looks small? (takes 6 Turret spaces) I think.

The zerg buildings look ugly as hell. I miss a lot of the older images. So far, this 3d bs hasn't treated the Zerg or Terran well at all. Hopefully some of that changes before the release.

SC:BW is not made in 2008. This is supposed to be at least a lil bit more realistic or something. **** are small.

AnAlbinoAligator · 07-09-2008, 02:43 AM

I think your entitled to your opinion and i did realise all the things u said but please dont knock it untill youve tried it

Zhuinden · 07-09-2008, 01:38 PM

But it looks like Warcraft III.

Jinai · 07-09-2008, 02:10 PM

I know I know, sorry. I already got warned about it.
But yeah, The Zerg look ugly in that game, but in the Game-Play video they look like the master race. Since they were so weak in StarCraft I guess Blizzard decided to make them stronger?

Raistlin · 07-09-2008, 05:57 PM

I get a kick out of the comments about SCII looking cartoony.

SC and SC:BW are cartoony as ****. I love the game but it's true.

Jinai · 07-09-2008, 08:08 PM

Well yeah, but StarCraft 2 is also. I'm not saying it's a bad thing. It's a Command and Conquer game, it's not supposed to have super-realistic graphics.

AnAlbinoAligator · 07-09-2008, 10:02 PM

i heard there takin out the old sound board
hydras wont ever be the same without the HRSKK sound

Jinai · 07-09-2008, 10:53 PM

Yeah I heard that too. That surprised me.

Zhuinden · 07-09-2008, 11:40 PM

Well okay, the unit sizes are Okay, I guess. But I don't want this to be Warcraft IV: The Blazing Throne of Kerrigan or something.

nano351 · 07-11-2008, 12:38 AM

it's not going to fail like Warcraft III. No heroes ****ing up nonUMS nor is there high hp values everywhere.

exzapel · 07-11-2008, 02:55 AM

To those who think it's too cartoony or different, what do you think it's supposed to look like? It looks about right to me. BTW, it's 3d, you'll be able to zoom in and out, your units won't look as big as they do now if they do that. As for the buildings, they're out of proportion because of the amount of space they'd take up otherwise, they were even out of proportion in SC/BW, it's already a part of the style.

AnAlbinoAligator · 07-11-2008, 03:50 PM

chyea he's right you'll be able to zoom

Tib · 07-11-2008, 09:37 PM

it's not important what it looks like but what it feels like. There are plenty of 2D games that look much less cartoonish then SC1 but that didn't make them better. It's important for the graphics to make the game playable not realistic. One has to easily recognize a unit or building rather then say ...wow ... they all look so real and indistinguishable ... imho

han_han · 07-11-2008, 10:18 PM

Honestly it's not even out yet, wait until it is released to rip on it.
