Unit appearance

[Teh_Ephy]

I cried a little when I realised that zerglings have fairy wings. So beautiful.

 

[Darkness-4ever]

Thats what they get when you upgrade their speed, if you've noticed, the Marines get a shield when you upgrade their health.

 

[MGCǂSpectre]

So WoWers cant complain that they dont see a change in appearance

 

[Tleno]

Is that true? Do your units really become WoWier change the apearance after upgrade? Hmmm... are those are different models or... hmmm... attachments?

 

[Darkness-4ever]

I really hope they are attachments, I'd like to give the shield and wings to a Zealot and make it fly and shield bash and slice and dice enemies in the sky... ah one can always dream.

 

[Doron]

Welllllll.....considering that BlizzCon snippet on just *some* of the possibilities of the Galaxy Editor...I think you should make one when it comes out.

 

[Hawkwing]

Ultralisk with wings. It must be done.

 

[Bloody_Turds]

i think a missle turret with wings would be cooler , a late game upgrade that lets missle turrets become units ^^

i was really hopin winged zerglings could atleast jump DOWN cliffs... i mean seriously.. XD, it would be a pwn upgrade, infact if they could 'jump' the line, and get on the other side of the enemy for better swarming

 

[Teh_Ephy]

That would just make them overpowered. Speedlings that can jump ledges...

 

[Darkness-4ever]

Give the wings to the Mutalisk to make a Double Mutalisk.

Zerglings are ridiculously fast if you max the speed (Faster). Man, the whole battle vs them is like a flash of lighting. Then the question that follows is: what just happened?

This + blue colour = Fuck off Sonic

Actually will it really be possible to make such insane speeds that it will be like a flash?

 

[Teh_Ephy]

In the first Starcraft, there is absolutely NO AI that cannot be killed by throwing large numbers of upgraded zerglings in its direction. They're small, so they can surround things very easily, and they hit FAST. A fully-upgraded zergling does 8 a hit, which ends up as 9 zlings to instant-kill an HP-upgraded marine. And they hit FAST.

 

[HELL_YA]

What about a Hellion + Reaper? What would that make? A JetPack Car? wait i got a idea for a ability... Cars can jump off ledges! and then make a 360 and then say "What Now!"

This Idea is totaly mine so © and ®.

@Teh Ephy

Each basic combat unit of the 3 races, when all fully upgraded: zerglings do the most DPS at 40 dps. They attacked about 5 times per second. 2 zerglings could kill a zealot single handedly. 2, since you spawn 2 per as well . The only thing that could stop them were Archons and High Templars, or if an Overlord is not near, DTs too cuz they OHKO zerglings.

attachments are beautiful. Especially that uberlisk. They pretty much made it 10x easier to do what the big starcraft mod projects did(the ones with the modded units and stuff.). I can see it now. Someone making an Infested Mothership unit. A Thor that passively shoots out 20 rockets per second at nearby foes, as well as having the Colossus's ability to walk over high elevation. or a zergling that fires Nuclear Strikes as its attack.

 

[HELL_YA]

@oldmilk you forgot Hellions...FLAME THEM ZERGLINGS UP!!!

 

[Bloody_Turds]

lings that could jump DOWN walls wouldnt be particularly overpowered, although going up would most definently render choke points usless against them.

Although lings do the most dps, for there price, they also have an extreemly hitpoint value, and can get slaughtered by any kind of splash.

It might also be interesting if they lept rather than ran.

It would be interesting if units like Zerglings and Reapers, could infact become flying units, for a short time, essentially taking to the air, and being targeted as an arial unit...
I mean zerglings would be the ultimate arial swarm XD
They would really have to nerf how it would look though (they would have to swarm like carriers) and limit the number of lings that can be locked on a single target
