Here's the Terran tech tree. The Command Centre can turn into a Planetary Fortress or a full fledged Surveillance Station. Also, SCVs can build a gigantic unit called Thor. It's slow at turning but extremely powerful. There's more -- the Starport can now turn into a Starbase which is basically a mobile mega Starport. It's noticeably larger than a Battlecruiser. Check out the following links for interesting information over @ gamespot.com: StarCraft II Campaign Demo, StarCraft II Initial Hands-On Impressions, StarCraft II Hands-On -- The Terrans

Yikes, it's been awhile since anyone posted in this thread. Anyway the official site has been updated. The Carrier and Observer are back. The Terran's get a new unit called the Nomad. Also, there's a new feature on the website titled "THE STORY SO FAR... PART 1: STARCRAFT". Click here to read it. "PART 2: THE BROODWAR" will be coming soon.

Be sure to check out the BlizzCon07 Walkthrough videos at Gametrailers.com.

I read the Terran section today... cool stuff indeed!

btw, is it worth playing the SP mode on SC? I usually find that stuff kinda boring though... only play it for the awesome movies that Blizzard make.

In my opinion, I think it's worth it. Then again I beat the single player campaign back in 2001. The game may seem boring but if you give it a chance, it could become quite an amazing experience. I warn you, you'll need the patience of a Tibetan monk in some levels.

First Look at StarCraft II Zerg

This new StarCraft II trailer that just debuted in Korea gives a first look at the Zerg alien race. Great looking trailer! Just checked the news, and no, South Korea hasn't imploded. Yet.

The Zerg swarm is just... oh my god. :o

EDIT: Also, the Zerg page at StarCraft2.com has been updated. Click here to see it. From what I can tell, they've added the Hydralisk and Mutalisk.

That was sick!!

I can't wait to see the rest of the Zerg. :p and the game of course.

Starcraft was my favorite game back in the days. it was also the first game I played on a PC that showed nice graphics (I had only played Duke Nukem 3D). I always wondered what's taking so long for a sequel. oh my, I can't wait to play this gem!

Sounds interesting but I think I'll skip this one though. The first one was quite fun but what killed it for me was I found it too hard (yeah I know, I suck :p) even on easy I'd die without fail in the first 5 mins of the game (the endless rushes is what did it) and on the extremely rare occasion I'd survive that, I'd eventually get wiped out by an ever bigger rush :wacko: One can only take so much defeat, before one gives up. I suspect StarCraft 2 will be more of the same with prettier graphics :/ great game but unless your really good at it, it causes endless frustration :p

    • I can name 10x that on why not to switch.... It's funny outlook/office are going towards web app wrappers, and then MS is now preaching native apps again.... ugh can we just pick a lane and stay in it
    • Absolutely NOBODY has suggested such a conclusion. I am affirming the sober reality check that AV2's overall market adoption will take longer than AV1's adoption rate -- which, by the way, is the whole point of the article! While PCI-SIG is productive (on paper), other WGs have created all sorts of confusing progress plans that consumers have tuned-out of their improvements... HTML/W3C, USB, HDMI, BT, WIFI (ieee802.11) as a few other groups where spec naming conventions, split progress paths, overlapping ambitions... I'm not critiquing the AV specs group; I'm simply affirming that adoption for AV2 faces headwinds beyond the macroeconomics of it all.
