How the fuck did he turn into blood goo?

Probably hit by friendly fire from a siege tank.
>>
>>747614206
If you play Starcraft 1 you'll see most marines turn into little piles of blood when they die.
>>
A roach probably puked into a breach in the armor.
>>
>>747614206
Hydralisk acid I guess? It’s seriously unclear how that barracks survived in the first place. In a real SC game it would be quickly annihilated if the Zerg were that close to the building. Dunno how they’d have the opportunity to scavenge the wrecked suits afterward either, that whole area was presumably crawling with Zerg. Honestly though who gives a shit… this game is 4 years away, the lore was already ruined by SC2, and the entire thing might become vaporware.
>>
>>747614965
The Dominion probably won.
>>
Because it's easier to simply pour a solvent into the suit and power wash out the prior occupant than it is to extract a full corpse.
>>
This cinematic was a perfect showcasing to me of why it's ok to let IPs die after a certain amount of time has passed. After seeing what they can do with just regular drones, why the fuck would you waste time waiting and training human, building stupid exoskeleton suits, then transporting all of them to attack large masses of soft tissue targets? It's fucking stupid it's mind boggling, they could've used all that empty space in the landers that touched down carrying the same guns and mow the enemies down. You can handwave it away as a different universe retardation/technology, but warfare had advanced to better ways of killing soft targets in the 70's. This shit is so cringe now.
>>
>>747614965
This was a barracks rush, clearly intended to distract the main zerg force from the actual attack. It had a large casualty rating because it's better against protoss than zerg but they still won thus allowing them to salvage the armor.
>>
>>747615271
>After seeing what they can do with just regular drones, why the fuck would you waste time waiting and training human, building stupid exoskeleton suits, then transporting all of them to attack large masses of soft tissue targets?
One could say the same with Starcraft 1 where they can also tear through marines like it's nothing.

>or kinetic energy from zerg's attack
>or sometimes marines get so fucked up that their flesh gets fused into the CMC's electronics so the only way for Dominion to reuse the armour, is to use acid and flush marine's remains down the drain

The Marine program was always a form of population control. The majority are 'reconditioned' criminals. Besides, you always need a grunt with a gun. They may not win battles but they patrol cities, hold facilities, pose for camera's, etc.

What's unrealistic to me is all the training they got. Weren't the OG marines hypno indoctrinated? Just, plugged into a fucking machine to have the propaganda and training zotted into their brain? Or am I mixing them up with 40gay
>>
>>747615480
Because it's what was shown in the trailer.
>alien factions with FTL travel fighting over minerals
I kinda forgot about that in comparison but it kind of solidifies my point. 28 years ago, probably more people than now that FTL is or was possible in the future, so it's easier to hand-wave in media like "yeah I could see us figuring that out and happening given our rate of tech advancement". I can't overlook an insanely stupid same use of infantry now that we have remote drones everywhere.
>>
>>747615271
rule of cool. space marines are cooler than drones

I liked one anon's speculation in a previous thread about using body dissolving chemicals to get rid of dead bodies in recovered suits
>>
>>747615726
>The Marine program was always a form of population control.
See, here's yet another thing I'd have trouble hand-waving away. Nowadays we know advanced civilizations generally deal with lower birth rates and demographic collapse rather than population explosion, having lots of kids was to have lots of people working on your farm. The further you get away from the era the game was originally made it, the worse the universe gets (for starcraft specifically for me, not general fantasy)
>>
>>747615726
idk in sc2 arcturus was always hyping up dominion troops. maybe all that medal stuff was just a few days of basic
>>747615764
i once read a review of the executioner (mack bolan) book series by a guy who complained that it was unrealistic compared to modern stuff like the gray man. i read that shit and 2 pages in you have a guy shouldering a barret 50 cal for sniping personnel with no spotter and apparently al quaeda and al jazeera were working together. trust me, all fiction is ridiculous if you knoww hat the fuck it's about and you're just not picking up on any of the other ridiculous stuff because you are also a knuckledragging moron
>>
>>747615726
>training
It looked cool in the trailer, plus basic training serves as more than just as a way to prepare soldier for battle. And people would ask questions why they are given equipment and sent straight to the frontline without even being taught how to handle a rifle

I do wonder if these marines are even briefed in on what they are going up against, or if they are kept in the dark until barrack's hatch opens. Did they even know they are going up against a swarm of aliens? Did they know they are most likely not making it back alive?
>>
>>747616130
>trust me, all fiction is ridiculous if you knoww hat the fuck it's about and you're just not picking up on any of the other ridiculous stuff because you are also a knuckledragging moron
Yeah but I would never feel this way about the Tolkien universe, there's some component of the fiction trying to be somewhat realistic to our current universe. I can't think of a perfect analogy, but it would be like a science fiction movie from the 1920's where they're portraying martians on mars and fighting them. The idea seems dumber (even for fiction) the longer the amount of time passes where we've seen what's on mars with rovers.
>>

Starcraft is older than the average poster by nearly a decade.

I don't think he turned into goo, his corpse is probably still in the armor the blood coming out was just pooled in the suit after he likely got stabbed/bit to death by zerglings

>give them some shiny bling to make them feel special (WOWIE YOU PASSED RIFLE QUAL WE'RE UPGRADING YOUR NAMETAG TO SILVER! HOLY MOLY YOU MADE IT THROUGH CLOSE RANGE COMBAT QUAL!? THAT DESERVES A GOLD NAMETAG!) to reinforce the idea that they're super hardcore killing machines and make them feel like they're the best of the best
>send them in a cannon fodder
>they're willing to rush in because god damn it the Republic told them they're the best fighting force to ever live and they've got a gold insignia so obviously nothing can kill them

Starcraft Ghosts would've been cooler.
>>
>>747619819
>or just have a ghost call in a nuke on the place once all the zerg converge in one location and overrun the ultimately disposable marines
This is the actual purpose of marines.
To be a distraction.
Either lure enemies to them, or away from something else, for whatever purpose, probably to nuke both targets and be done with it.
>>
>>747615726
I think it makes more sense from the Dominion's point of view because unlike the Confederacy, they're not using drugged up convicts. The whole recruitment/training strategy is obviously meant to foster a culture in the population that encourages them to willingly sign up and give their lives away for the cause.

Serious question. I still have SC/BW fresh in my mind even though it was well over 20 years ago but the missions and cinematics were just THAT memorable. But I only ever played WoL and have mostly forgotten what that game was even like except that you could know select more than 12 units and the custom games online search sucked.
With all that said, with 4 years of waiting, should I replay WoL and then actually play for the first ever SoXN and HotS?
Or are they so bad it'll ruin my currently good memories of SC?
>>
>>747623275
That's the thing though, the sheer scale is also what necessitates them to cut cost and cheap out on everything. Apples and most big tech companies are still using 3rd world sweatshops to this day.
>>
>>747623157
Environmental protection, they can operate in vacuum. Also strength enhancements so they can wield heavier weapons and move farther for longer and faster.
>>
>>747623661
You think world class militaries just leave their tanks where they are when they get damaged beyond operability? It's standard practice to repair and reuse military hardware.
>>
>>747623157
The power armor allows them to use said Gauss Rifle. And it's not for nothing even if one rine dies, spraying full auto into a horse can still cause a bunch of ling deaths. Its a good tradeoff from the overarching commander view.
But that's only if you treat life as cheap which is what they seem to be doing here literally landing racks in front of a hive or infested nexus or whatever. BUT it doesn't make sense for the Terrain at that point to treat life cheaply since the Dominion should be a professional military force and they just waste soldiers for no reason when there's probably do few of them left in the grand scheme of things.
Starcraft universe isn't like WH40K where there's an imperium of man with thousands of planets and some planets literally have billions of people so any imperial guard regimen is cheap fodder that could die quickly and not make a difference. In Starcraft the terrain are barely hanging on to a few planet the toss didn't glass yet from zerg infestation. I just can't imagine why you'd waste lives like this.

I really liked WoL, it's pretty fun. The story isn't great, but it's the strongest of the three. Heart of the Swarm is divisive, I didn't care for how Kerrigan-focused the gameplay was in most of the missions. Same issue in LotV but with the Spear of Adun instead of Kerrigan.

Thing is, that is so on-the-nose WH40K that the trailer felt more like some weird riff on blood angels.

They obviously wanted to ape the beginning scene from the most modern rendition of All Quiet On the Western Front, where a soldiers uniform is seen being recycled en masse in the most brutal industrial way possible, to showcase how dehumanizing WW1 was.

Difference is that the soldier in that movie was a 16 year old kid with 0 training and this muttoid had years of training, which makes no pratical sense if he's just going to be used as a meatshield and die in the first 5 seconds of battle.

Not even 343 Gaylo was that retarded, not even Starcarft 2 cinematics were that retarded.

Dunno why you guys get so hung up on this. That's just how dictatorships work, the only difference is the mechanism in which to convince people to lay down their lives and for the Dominion that's these training camps because realistically these people are probably only spending three months tops doing it as they get fed bullshit to hype them up.

>>
>>747627404
Blizzard beside Hearthstone and OW, they always have this gritty and edgy portrayal. Diablo and Starcraft are their edgiest works. In all, it's a concept trailer to shareholders, not people who are already familiar with the game. Trying shock value death horror of no name units, a throwaway low tier unit, in a rts ip is lame.

In the bw booklet that came with the original game (something you doubtlessly don't own) they plainly state that the addition of a medic to a squad of Marines extends their lifespan to an average of 9 (nine) seconds, not 9 seconds longer but an average of 9 seconds total on the battlefield.

This is one thing SC1 nails but Sc2 fucks up: the armor is just environmental suit design to keep the regular joe safe from space radiation and other nasty stuff.

So, what do you guys think the schtick of this game even is going to be? An open world FPS obviously with the grimdark established tone, but what's the catch?
Are we actually going to be playing as a Ghost or are we just the one hero unit Marine like Jimmy who isn't completely worthless?
>>747629186
If they were going for the cannon fodder angle with the Dominion I still think they should've used one of Metzen's scrapped concepts of lighter armored conscripts. Basically the guys who were so bottom of the barrel they didn't even get the power suit.
>>
>>747627947
>Gauss rifles would easily wreck 40k power armor
No? Astartes (to avoid confusion) power armor is on the level of being almost an actual walking Tank. Especially with the nuStartes. The only reason Guardsmen even beat Astartes while using lasguns that are probably around the strength level of Terran Gauss Rifles but with substantially worse minus firerate to reach that power level is through lucky weakpoint hits. Or by using gigarape energy weapons that invalidate everything they are pointed at in general.

SC Marines stand a much better chance against an Astartes due to volume of fire, but Astartes have been honed for fighting enemies like an SC Marine. It's not going to be a cheesy 1vs100 victory in an open field fight, but contrary to popular belief Astartes don't actually fight in open fields because it's tactically retarded if they don't have at least enough guardsmen backing them up to worry the Zerg.

WoL was great. The RPG elements and exploration and laid-back missions were fun. I really liked being able to spec into different units and upgrades. And being able to walk around interiors and explore environments was awesome.
Most well-balanced achievements too. You could get the extra hard achievement for each mission on the hard difficulty if you tried.

HoS and LotV are much worse. Stripped down RPG mechanic, less stuff to explore. But worst of all is the achievements. That Protoss mission where you have to defend against the big bad xelnaga like alien zergs was absolute bullshit. I couldn't get that achievement and I stopped playing right there.
>>
>>747629186
The visual design makes sense for the Confederacy and the immediate aftermath but it's the difference in visual design for Dominion soldiers makes a lot of sense and gives a stylistic change that suits the societal change. You get plenty of customized rigs in Raynor's Raiders where it makes sense that the standards are more laxed than an actual military power.

>>747629786
I've always liked that the Marines were in-universe overmatched and outgunned. It made the struggle against the Zerg and Protoss make more sense and it helps keep SC from being like 40K where guys in protagonist armor solve everything.

I think WoL is a GOAT single player RTS experience and no other RTS has been able to match the quality in presentation or feel. HoTS is extremely focused on Kerrigan and most people I know say it was a step down from WoL and even worse in the writing department (which is already SC2's weakest element).

LoV I think is more favorably looked at while being seen as weaker in gameplay and writing than WoL. The Epilogue campaign that people lump into LoV is universally regarded as the worst writing in the setting and permanently misses what was interesting about SC in 1 and BW.

It's actually similar to SC/BW. The Terran stuff is the most interesting even when it's poorly written or missing polish.

The Protoss are the typical le dying ancient race confined to a handful of planets.

>>747626598
The peace at the end of SC2 didn't even last a year.

The Dominion came out in the best shape since their separatists blew their load early and all got killed. The neighbouring Terran factions are all isolationists so they have fewer enemies to worry about. That said their dominant status, large undeveloped outskirts, and Valerian's passivity means that they're usually the go to target.

The Protoss are probably in their worst position yet, they lost almost all of the Golden Armada in the LotV civil war, the Tal'Darim broke away the second Amon died, they took massive losses with no way to recover, and they lost the Khala. To make things worse apparently the old conflict of High vs Dark templars got reignited by some high templar chuds in some spin-off book. More and more they are forced to rely on the Purifiers, AI that have already rebelled once before.

Zerg are the odd case because Kerrigan practically designed them to be in a constant state of civil war. Zagara is generally seen as a weak leader and has dealt with rebellion by Abathur 3 years after the end of SC2, and Niadra 2 years later. Even with all the upgrades Zagara got from Abathur, she's not nearly as powerful as Kerrigan was so many Broodmothers just do their own thing and there are random hidden or feral outposts all over the sector she can't do anything about.

>>747632765
For Zagara being seen as weak it's mostly SC2 itself. Kerrigan picked her because she was the first living Broodmother found, not because she was special. Zagara would often fail tests and get sent off to Abathur for more upgrades, so while she is "Overqueen" she's not that much more advanced than a normal broodmother.

The rebellions are from the spin-off books and comics.

Evolution has Abathur rebel and try to assassinate Valerian on his symbolic visit to one of Zagara's terraformed worlds. He made a strain of Zerg using Xel'naga essence to hide them from the rest of the zerg hivemind, as well as protoss and terran sensors, making it seem like Zagara was making specialized infiltrator and assassin units. They failed and were all killed, Abathur was captured and enslaved.

The Niadra stuff is from Shadow Wars. Niadra got her orders directly from Kerrigan to kill all the protoss and they override any orders she might get from Zagara. She keeps attacking the protoss to fulfill her orders and the Dominion, to gather psionics to infest and grow her own hives power.. While she doesn't fight against Zagara directly, she is a rogue Broodmother who's working against her goals.

Considering it's a facility that cleans the suits and perpares them for new use, they just poured in something to dissolve the body before opening the suit because it's much easier to clean up this way and they wouldn't give a fuck about proper burials.
Especially since all nametags also had the same sludge as the trailer guy's (which could be blood but considering they all had similar stains I'd say just like the trailer guy it's not just blood but the entire body goop) it'd seem it's just a standard procedure to dissolve the body for easier cleaning and also considering they're fighting zerg it helps prevent any random infestation being left inside the suit.

This is the official lore Blizzard has given on protoss biology.

For some retarded reason Protoss women have tits. I can appreciate tits like any other red blooded man can, but I prefer them to make sense on the alien races they are slapped on, the protoss don't even have god damn mouths and are photosynthetic.
If their women had just shapely thigs and buts and toned bellies along with flat chests and I would find them even hotter because that way my autistic brain wouldn't be annoyed and distracted by the question of "why does an alien that does not even have a mouth, have tits"

There is no lore regarding how the protoss reproduce. I choose to believe that they reproduce by handholding, or belly rubs, and that when their women get pregnant they grow a sort of pouch like thing on ther bellies, where the babby protoss develops until it is ready to be born, upon which the pouch detaches.

He's a petulant autistic savant, he can do gene-editing and pretty much nothing else. He thought that if the Zerg declared peace with the Protoss and Dominion then he would have access to less biomass and less toys to work with.

So he tries to assassinate Valerian, and for him being retarded

>Jump the gun on your initial attack
>Target gets saved by their escort

And this isn't even getting into the idea of an infiltrator that has no initiative and can only respond to pre-programmed vocal orders.

He's a Zerg turbochud who really hated that the whole swarm was being turned into some carebear peaceful parody of itself, so billions had to die once again, like in the good old days
Besides, he knew that what he does is still essential to the survival of the Swarm, and his rebellion would at worst have him get a slap on the wrist, but never killed, which is exactly what happened

Assuming those bodies around that one soldier are his allies, what's even the point of wasting that drone on him?

StarCraft has insane lore wank on how powerful Zerg are. Hydralisks being able to hit interstellar ships with their spines isn't just a gameplay quirk. They can actually just do that because they have 4,000 bulletproof muscles and produce chitin that's stronger than steel. Penetrating armor and hitting soft tissue probably just mulches you.

the guy isnt really wrong. infantry is mostly good for police action in controlled territory. using troops for taking new territory is very inefficient use of human resources when they have to deal with artillery and drones. Look at the conflict in middle east right now, Iran is putting immense pressure on the region without sending out any troops, just missiles and drones. Meanwhile in ukraine war they basically are using human wave tactics and a tremendous amount of people are dying without significant changes in the front line.

Pylon rushes are far more powerful if you have gateways set up than just floating a barracks to pump out zerg.

Aslo the Protoss are objectively the actual fucking heroes of Starcraft, and far cooler than the Terrans are. Terrans are just retard assholes most of the time, protoss in turn are a honorable, and noble warrior race worthy of actual admiration.

Human waves were a movie tactic, not a book tactic. The Mobile Infantry don't have enough guys for human wave shit; they get in, they absolutely ratfuck someone's day, and they leave; most ops are counted in hours and the corps makes a huge deal out of getting everyone back on the ship at the end.

I remember when the "good" Protoss strategy for dealing with the Zerg invasion of the Koprulu sector was to just annihilate every planet they found the Zerg on. Didn't matter if the Terrans were also there and handling it, just burn it all, they're all aliens anyway. These were your so called "good and honorable" alien faction. Oh and even though there was an active invasion on Aiur, they still had time for a civil war that only weakened them further and the sacrifice of Tassadar was the only reason the Overmind was defeated by the end of SC1 pre-Brood War.

Metzen is a concept artist and a failed comic book writer. In Brood War he was mostly going off from scraps that James Phinney left before he departed from Blizzard, and then it makes sense in context of whose writing is at play when there's a sudden drop in a character's IQ every time when Duran and Kerrigan appears during Brood War. SC2 is Chris Metzen's writing without anyone there to hold his hand.

>>>The internal civil wars continue but... Protoss and Zerg Space Hitlers arrive to shake up the civil wars and cause the factions to band together and then the zerg fly off to manifest destiny
*YAWN* truly riveting. I can see why this is a timeless classic that has stood the test of the decades.

Because (and you'd know this if you weren't a larping secondary) most of the badass psycho war criminals were Confederate ex-cons and other trash. The Dominion on the other hand is fairly stable and civilized, meaning most of their soldiers are volunteers or conscripts from the core population.

We know SC2’s story is just insulting.

Kerrigan is portrayed as a bitter and small-minded stereotype of a woman who kills billions for some petty revenge nobody cares about. She even said herself in SC1 that she didn’t mind Mengsk betraying her because it’s just such an insignificant matter at a cosmic scale. Now they let this desire for revenge become her whole character that determines the fate of the entire universe. This is not what people want to see in a sci-fi.

And then we have the final boss who glows dark red every single time he appears and all it does is scream “I’M EVIL”. Amon’s character theme is beyond cheap and every line is unbelievably shallow. You just don’t want to see this in a triple A title because it doesn’t even look PG12.

Every major character is made to look as humanoid as possible because they want a reskined medieval fairy tale. Did I mention how they even made Karax fat to fit the stereotype? What were they thinking? It’s hard to believe Starcraft 1 and 2 were written by the same person.

The bug war didn't end, but the book did. Didn't he just save his former training sergeant at Klendathu? For me, I felt the society was less of a caricature in the book, and was never depicted as a bad fascist thing. I think I'll re-read it, since it's been a while.

Drone warfare completely obliterates any need for self-protective morality. Cowboy Slavbop on his computer doesn't need to consider:

>Showing compassion because it doesn't hurt if his drone gets mutilated
>Avoiding civilian casualties, or in general warcrimes because you never see the aftermath burn into your skill, just static of a dead camera
Also it's video games' fault for disconnecting and desensitising us from violence. Bravo that lawyer guy whose name I forgot who bitched about video games in the 2000s. Lance bass? something Thompson? Who fucking cares you aint reading all this shit.

The funny thing is that the Ukraine war is proving that the endless meat shield tactic works. Ukraine isn't winning the war with drones. Russia's massive meat army is winning and is projected to win. And this is with abundantly cheap manufactured drones in supply meaning this is modern drone warfare operating at 100% capacity against a meat shield strategy operating at 2-3% (google: Approximately 2 to 3 percent of Russian military-age men have seen active combat in Ukraine since the full-scale invasion began in 2022.)

The economics of Starcraft are based on the fact that minerals only exist on the Koprulu sector and are absurdly incredibly valuable. So all that training and equipment the marine got to instantly get gibbed was only 50 minerals which is about a minute or gathering by a single SCV.
