Guys we should start compiling EE finds and other such lulz.

Here is one I found during the second Roach Evolution mission:

The girl is named Maye and her two dogs are Diamond and Onyx. Don't know what the hell that reference is supposed to be?

I do stuff and thingies... Try widening and reducing the number of small nooks and crannies to correct the problem.

found some on reddit:
(<-in the infiltratioin mission: powerade & protoss kitchen)
(<- in same mission as maye and her crystals)

Maybe just the crystals in the cave.



None.

<- more from reddit, supposed to be something from wc3 according to that person

Also, there is a Marine complaining, if you trample his car in the Ultralisk evolution mission.
edit: someone made a video of it

None.

Woah

I doubt it. Usually the simplest reasons are the correct ones. There's probably an artist or designer named Maye and dogs named Onyx and Diamond. :lol:

We can't explain the universe, just describe it; and we don't know whether our theories are true, we just know they're not wrong. >Harald Lesch

I've found another one:

Woah

Not to mention there's no similarities other than both being in Marine armor. :P

In the Swarm Host evolution mission, there's a billboard advertising "Pabsh" beer. I'll get a screenshot of it sometime.



None.

Oooh I get it, shout outs to Artosis and Tasteless. I wonder if Day[9] gets one.

Btw. earlier I was just alluding to the fact that it might just be a comm relay and that comm relays look that way.



Is that a reference to Frozen Throne (wc3)?

I don't get that one. Is 24601 some magical number?

Prisoner 24601, also appeared in southpark and maybe in much more media.

I think that is the Lich King from wc3? I have no idea. :D

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically
[2026-6-21. : 4:26 am]
Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings
[2026-6-20. : 6:15 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.
[2026-6-20. : 3:47 pm]
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
[2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:
[2026-6-19. : 9:57 am]
Oh_Man -- makes me wonder if SEN knows anything about the topic
[2026-6-19. : 9:57 am]
Oh_Man -- artosis dropped pretty interesting vid: https://youtu.be/EqZHB8Blra4
