What if there was like a Vice-Overmind? or a co-Overmind?



None.

Jun 26 2008, 9:27 am BeDazed Post #24



Cerebrates are Overmind's vices. They can operate without the Overmind's presence, and given enough time and energy it can evolve into an overmind. ( Or fusing with other cerebrates would work. ) Once a overmind's formation takes place, it would probably suppress others to become an overmind in order to have no conflicting orders on one zerg.

( As you saw on Brood War, Kerrigan had controlled one Brood against the overmind controlled Brood of the UED. )

What about the queens? The instructions never really explained it that great.
It seems that queens are tertiary, based on the tech tree.

that channel is based off of sc2. where the overmind is dead. ( ithink) so hes not on their and the queen has a more important role in sc2.

Let me show you how to hump without making love.

Kerrigan = Much more mobile and a lot smarter than the Overmind, plus, she can defend herself quite nicely

Cerebrates = Field Commanders, they are in-charge when Mommy is at the store

Queens = Hive Warden, she keeps the bitches in line yo

Overlords = Sarah told Jenny who told Ashley who found Elizabeth and told her that Emily had told Courtney who secretly told Amanda who was telling Kelsey when I overheard that you are supposed to go attack the Terran base up there

Minions = They kill stuff. If they aren't under control, they are coo coo for coco puffs.

Lower Cerebrate > Brood(s)
Queen > Hive Cluster
Overlord
Minions

Altough sometimes she kinda does , the bitch !!!! >:(

Hopefully nobody kills me for joining in on an old topic...

A thought I came up with is that Zerg units absorbed Minerals and Gas for certain nutrients they contain that promote mutation. Larvae feed on creep I guess... I'm assuming that other Zerg units would feed on creep too, or their life spans would just be really short.

As for the whole control hierarchy thing

Overmind> Cerebrate> Overlord/Hatchery
Or
Kerrigan> Cerebrate> Overlord/Hatchery

I didn't bother to include Queens, because they require control which is provided by overlords and hatcheries, and don't provide any. This is probably different in SC2, but SC2 changes a lot so I think it's better left old school until things are set in stone.

:P I don't get how a larvae can be come a ultralisk...Maybe its one of those crappy dollar store sponge animals that expand when you put them in water. Maybe creep is water-based?

Ultraviolet -- oh yeah probably. think I misinterpreted the original message. I thought he meant moving the flag revealed the base in the sense that it opened it up to being scouted, but what you're saying makes more sense
[2025-5-15. : 11:37 am]
Sie_Sayoka -- dont those ladder maps have use map settings game type? i remember in a lot of them there was display text showing the maker and other credits at the beginning
[2025-5-14. : 4:42 pm]
fritfrat -- Good point.. maybe in Melee it sets off the hard-coded Capture the Flag logic when they pick up a p12 flag, revealing the SCV
[2025-5-14. : 4:34 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah, I forget how they do it, but they can preplace P12 units in melee / TvB maps. Maybe unit sprites
[2025-5-14. : 3:38 pm]
fritfrat -- Artosis and Tasteless were chatting on an ASL cast that 6 player maps will likely never happen for competitive SC, but Artosis mentioned how there was a concept of one where a worker had to pick up a flag to get out of their base, which resulted in their base being revealed. That's not possible with Melee / Top vs Bottom settings, is it? Thought I'd ask..
[2025-5-12. : 7:50 pm]
dumbducky -- I am so good at procrastinating
[2025-5-09. : 8:45 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Me too. The general concept is exciting and fun to play, or at least I enjoyed it in the previous Diplo Europe iteration.

Excalibur -- I have no idea if Clans will finish his map but I hope so.
[2025-5-08. : 5:25 pm]
Ultraviolet -- don't count your chickens before they're hatched :P
[2025-5-05. : 9:24 pm]
Excalibur -- Sie is really really good and I'm glad Clans had them do the terrain for the new map. I feel like not enough of Sie's stuff will ever get used on a finished map.
