If anyone is interested in scale in the Starcraft universe http://i2.minus.com/idKJOHIciRf0E.jpg
Very true.
Guessing in a few years Blizzard will open a completely separate cinematic department for full feature films. I'm hoping so.
I wish they'd play just the straight cinematic on tv, instead it will be cut up and they'll through it flashy words just like the Mists of Pandaria ones.
wasn't kerrigan's face more mutated in SC1?
it looks pretty strange now with all those zerg dreadlocks transitioning into a perfectly clean skin.
P.S. Lookout for the wilhelm scream at 1:44
Holy crap! That looks AMAZING! Better than the ones from Wings of Liberty. So so so good.
The only thing that bugs me is the statue falling for no reason
I had to crank it up to HD full screen to see what was going on so not visually explained well at lower, smaller res... STILL, loved it, watching it again!
other than that, so good.
and this
is very cool
That scale reference gives a whole new meaning to Starcraft.
I think Kerrigans voice couldve used some work though, she sounds awfully neutral and monotone in the video.
But this kind of bothered me:
Hey guys, there's this giant thing floating in the sky. Let's send a few Vikings to piss it off and have a couple of marines and a tank patrolling the streets just in case.
When shit does hit the fan let's all stand in a line and meet them in the open.
Like, no bunkers? maybe a Thor or 2? A Ghost with a Nuke?
The siege tank transform was fucking sick though.
Thought the same thing. Lets all stand around and pretend that thing isnt their.
Also, Wilhelm scream
But hey, imagine your playing starcraft 2 HOS and you are in your village and the SHTF when you realize that you didn't produce enough and the zergs are all over the place, murdering and destroying everything.
Then again, there's still the quit button.
hahahaha !!
I have watched most Blizzard Cinematics hundreds of times and still they never get old, they just dazzle me each time. It must be SO fun getting to work on all the amazing things that team produces.

The siege tank animation to siege mode was kind of cool too. I also wonder if that's the entire opening cinematic, or just part of it. WoL's opener was a decent length for what I remember.
Boxer wasnt microing :P }
I really hope at some point they do a breakdown like the D3 trailer at Blizzcon.
I bought the Collector's edition and i have Zerg wings in diablo 3 :P
I think this was the entire point of the cinematic though. To see the game through a more realistic lens. I think it's kind of also hinted at by some of the dumb decisions made by characters in the trailer. Like when the viking decides to land against an ultralisk. I think we as players are meant to laugh at that because that's exactly what happens in the game. Where in "real life" i'd bet vikings would be equipped with atleast some ATG weapons. lol
Isn't there a storyline/scenario that would revolve around the Protoss for a change ? note that i dont mind any of it.
I thought zerg also have gigantic flying units. Now the scene where the battlecruiser falling looks a little bit odd
this.
supposed to be as big as a moon, but in game its tiny.

be fun if the game units actually had some sense of scale to them

0.43 raptor evolved.. into raichu!
whats the point of hellion trasform into flamethrower btw..
One thing I'd like to see is a bit of size variety when it comes to big unit numbers like all those bugs. They all look so uniform there...
