HOTS Cinematic Discussion

[Necroplant]

I just saw the Heart of the Swarm opening cinematic they just released!

I must say, it must suck to be overwhelmed by the Zerg. I paid attention to the distance-shot of the Terran line being overrun, and how the marines stop firing as soon as the zergling wave hits them. I mean, that's truly a zillion zerglings in that video! I wonder if the hive-mind prevents the Ultras from stepping on them?

Also, I'm not sure if the opening zerg ship was an Overlord or not, or probably just a massive interplanetary Zerg.

I assumed that it was something like the Devourer from the last few levels of Wings of Liberty. That entire battle sequence was so badass.

[Azuriae]

Favorite part was definitely the Battlecruiser crash. Sick intro video.
Also, that WoW gnome @ 0:30. Anyone else noticed that?

[Cryptonic]

my favorite part was when the zerg attacked the highly developed terran planet and they had like 120 supply of units to defend with.

?? trolling?

[Nazzhoul]

Oh, and I think I heard a Wilhelm scream in there somewhere.

[ika]

i knew it was a ship of some sort but it does kinda look like a dick coming in at the 2 min mark. anyone else see that resemlence?

Look at the Viking's mirror tag.

[BorkBot]

Yep, it's one of those gnome girls dual wielding pink tails bigger than the size of her torso.

Me no likey how Blizz always loves to let those with defensive strategies get pounded on

[CmG]

Hey i had a female gnome tank with pink tails! I kicked Arthas butt!!!!!

RIP Viking.

Dear Terran Commander, do not land vikings to fight ultras.

[Orpz]

Typical Zerg 1-a

[Mugy]

The giant zerg creature is the leviathan...

[TheDarkestLight]

That Terran had the worst micro I have EVER seen. No stutter step, no stim, no OP MMM. What a noob. This was clearly a bronze league match.

[Espozito]

Saw it yesterday and it is awesome!
Before this clip I didn't even imagine that battle cruiser is so huge! AND LEVIATHAN!!!!

Also, I bet that Viking thought: "Okay. Fly here. Transformation. Start to shoot. Oh, sh*t-sh*t-sh*t, scope is broken! FFFFFFUUUUUUUU"

[Espozito]

Ahah! WoW Gnome as air fresher XD

[Azuriae]

Wuts dis? a thread in general discussion that is non troll? made by none other than necroplant?

And yes, I can't wait to play the campaign for HOTS for the rest of the cinematics, I love the Starcraft lore, I have most of the books. They did an awsome job with that leviathan.

And is it just me or is Terran becoming more transformers in every sequel?

SC they got the Seige Tank.
WoL they got the Vicking
HotS they get the Battle Hellion / Hellbat
LotV will they get Terra-Tron?

[CmG]

they have to do that. Otherwise people will just keep calling it a wh40k rip off. But then again.. TAU hmm...

No one else knows what a Terra-Tron is, aside from us.

[Mugy]

Anyone else notice the siege tanks were firing while moving backwards when the statue was falling? OP

[Fatalis]

LOLOLOLOLOLOL

Also I'm probably gonna buy HotS, the campaign seems worth it. But they need to buff ultralisk till it's that imba

[Necroplant]

Yeah it's very primitive how they can't even fire when moving in the campaign yet. I wonder how easy it is for tank firing programs IRL to hit their target while moving?

Also, I guess they couldn't really just nuke the shit out of that Leviathan, as it would crash into half the city lol. But they have many planets, the Confederacy, don't they?

Though that was their capital world.

[Espozito]

RIP Viking.

Dear Terran Commander, do not land vikings to fight ultras.

Just a theory: What if the Viking was trying to impress 2 banshee chicks who were flying with him? XD
