I dont know about you guys but it seems like they are just making SC2 into another warcraft. All the graphics, units, and 3d viewing looks just like the game. Granted the pre screen for the campaign looks decently unique but lot like mechassult online.
Also some of the units are going to ruin the game or just make things little stupid. Like the mothership, thor and the tower that sees unit movment. Those to me just seem like the imagination of this new crew is being peeled little to much or just being recycled.
Mothership is just like those units from 40k even though blizzard didnt make 40k it is still like it. Thor is just like elphants from age of the emipres. And the same with the tower, just another thing from age of the empire.
None.
Why is this here not in SC2 section?

And what are you contributing to the thread besides spam and flame? ...Hypocracy isn't good
I'm stoked for Starcraft 2! I've been waiting for this game ever since the original Starcraft came out!
"It's about damn time"
Honestly man, why are you being so picky about what they're doing? Its hard to come up with original ideas for new games.. Have you tried?
Anyways, like I said, I'm really stoked

I agree, the sensor/radar towers have been done before (I've seen it done in Supreme Commander, don't know about other games), but they didn't ruin the game there... in fact, they were quite useful and strategic. But it's fine to use ideas that have already been done, because knowing Blizzard, they'll tie all these ideas together and polish them to make something far greater.

I fail to see the Thor -> Elephant connection... and every RTS has some sort of defensive structure.
Honestly, if all you have a problem with are three units: Mothership, Thor and Radar Tower, then that means they've done 30+ units that you like, so I guess it's fine.
Although Motherships need Black Hole back!
SC2 will be great, but knowing blizzard it wont be out till like... 2010-2012

War Elephants in Age of Empires are incredibly overpowered (just 15 are hard to beat unless you're really good), and usually massed online. I guess he means that terran players'll mass several of these and be indestructable.

Really? Can't you just use Priests to convert them or take them down with Ballistas?
I simply have my paladins distract them, ( granted they get destroyed quickly because of the Elite Elephant's splash ) and have either trebuchets or ballistas pound them from the back.
Anyway, on topic..
Yes, the game isn't going to be what you all want, at least not at first. Blizzard will make patches fixing balance issues, and other things.
Remember, a lot of the things are probably just Beta graphics. At least, I hope so..
With all of these Über updates to Terran, and some to Protoss, I can't help but imagine what Zerg is going to receive..
Carricruisalisk, anyone?
None.
I likie Carricruisalisk!
On the topic of WH40k: GOGO CHAOS!!!
None.
On a more serious note:
Blizzard's exceptionally good with keeping up with balance issues, and no small part to all the patches that'll get released.
I also can't wait for the Zerg units, though I hope all the old ones'll be back

I think they said in an interview that the Hydralisk and Ultralisk were almost certain to return... which makes sense, because they're really iconic units. I hope they do something to the Ultralisk to make it a lot more useful though.
And on a possibly related note, I want to see units that are able to knock units around, push them back, pull them forward, etc. Now that we've got this wonderful physics engine, let's get some good use out of it!
I hope they dont release too many patches... It might get too complex that way =/
None.
Think of it this way, we exploit the game, they make a patch, then we exploit the patch!

The Ultralisk is extremely useful.

Does that mean i'm "really good"? Lawls
You just need to know how to defend yourself better...

Um..... Paladins are AoK (Age of Kings), not AoE (Age of Empires).... Along with Trebuchets...

Three armies of Hydras, two armies of Ultras, the rest of the 1-0 = Zerglings = Pwnage.
