If you were a SC unit....

[VeljkoM]

Well think hydralisk at the moment saving grace is its range.

Archons well they are still sort of same, just I miss dark archon. Heh I also would like if they kept the Twilight Archon idea.

Dragoons well true successor seems more stalker, immortal is successor by lore but not function. Immortals are still damn good units, just I prefer to use colossus more.

 

[Misha]

creator of the colosuss must've watched war of the worlds a bit too many times

 

[clockwork2]

?????
whats that mean?

 

[Misha]

you mean you never watched war of the worlds movie? aliens there have giant vehicles called tripods, and they are kinda like colossus, as in built.. slender and towering

 

[VeljkoM]

Not like Tripods haven't been used in many other sci fi. Starcraft borrows quite a lot I think, just sc1 and sc2 use different references.

 

[Misha]

to be fair, we wouldn't have an awesome game without all those borrowed ideas

 

[VeljkoM]

Well to be fair I am not that happy with sc2 really. I prefer older games anyway these modern ones lack fun for me.

 

[Misha]

so what did the old games have that modern lack exactly?

 

[VeljkoM]

Fun. And lack of feeling that their reason to exist is to get money only. And the feeling that gameplay was more important then graphics. And should I mention the damn only online games, I like to play games off line too.

 

[Misha]

well the future is only going to get more on-line '~'

 

[clockwork2]

And good music!

 

[VeljkoM]

Actually old games had quite good music to. I liked Wc2 sound track way more for example. But uh this is not the topic we should debate.

So lets go back, You say siege tanks is your fav unit. Hood choice both on strategic values of the unit and the looks. though must admit the spidery form annoys me little. But results of fire power can't be ignored by any men who ever played starcraft.

 

[Misha]

lol, i have always throught of a siege tank as a turtle with hydraulics and a gun

 

[clockwork2]

I meant the old games lol. and yea, souped up turtle!

 

[Misha]

and one blizzard guy once said that sc1 archon is a naked protoss in a blue popcorn cloud and they didn't want that in sc2

 

[Misha]

no unnecessary dramatics, please :/

 

[clockwork2]

My apologies, butt still!
Lol, see what I did there?

 

[clockwork2]

Lets make units not even based off starcraft troops!
Like:
Future Soldier
HP:395
Dps:12 - 21
Abilities: Rifle Surge!
Description: Coming from the future, the reasons behind their arrival is unknown. But one things for sure, they're well armed!

 

[Misha]

interesting.. :]

 

[clockwork2]

Warpoid
HP:100
Shield:12
Dps:30 - 45
Abilities: Essence Siphon, Infect(if said target dies while the effect is there, it spawns a Warpling), Devour Warpling.
Description: while it may resemble an Archon in a few ways, it's persona is far more different. It is constantly bloodthirsty, and hard to control without the aid of high ranking psychics, none know where these powerful beings originated. But many speculate it is a creature tossed out of the Void.

Warpling
HP:120
Dps:10 - 30
Abilities: Absorb(the Warpling latches onto a unit that is biological and severly weakened(ten percent left of it's health), and absorbs it's characteristics and weaponry).
Description: a being spawned from a being who died while exposed to a Warpoid's unique virus, it is capable of viciously absorbing weakened beings. A very old Warpling may well look like a abomination with weapons sticking out of it's skin.

 

[Misha]

an unpredictable archon-like creature, eh? I like your imagination

 

[clockwork2]

heheh, thanks, btw just uploaded pics of my next tries at texturing.... I think they went pretty darn good. I uploaded em here because they were based off SC marine.
Also, no Fully custom unit ideas from you?? I'm shocked ! truly

EDIT: btw, Warpoids feed on the essence of living creatures, so if starved for too long. IT.WILL.GO.ROGUE.

Be careful if your in command of such beings...

 

[Misha]

about those pictures.. i really don't need half-finished WIPs of something that based of starcraft.. but rather something from either sc1 or sc2

and about the creature ideas, I'm perfectly fine with dragoon, archon, dark archon and hybrid destroyer >:3

 

[clockwork2]

lol, really?
I'm saddened.... which is why I release a unit for the zerg!
Zerg Cultist
HP:340
Dps:10 - 13(Ranged) 20 - 30(Melee)
Abilities: Infect
Description: A horrific servant of the zerg, he willingly infested himself and in return gained much power. His technology is horrifically barbaric though, and is less proficient at ranged combat.

 

[Soul of Blood]

Is this group still active? Also Misha you should really make some Models for Clock's ideas .

 

[clockwork2]

Dunno. Also yay!

 

[Misha]

it is active-ish and.. i can't really create that for war3

 

[Grey Knight]

Mine would be Ghost
because I like hiding, infiltrating Enemy Base and Support the Team,if they gonna Attack Zergy Base
