How the fuck did he turn into blood goo?
>>747614206Probably hit by friendly fire from a siege tank.
>>747614206If 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.
>>747614206Hydralisk 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.
>>747614965The 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.
>>747614965This 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.
>>747615271why is THAT what you consider unrealistic and not the basic premise of three alien factions with FTL travel fighting over minerals
>>747614206vax status?
>>747614206Kek I literally came here to ask the same questionAI said>strong zerg acid vomited into the suit>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 drain2/3 of options are probably AI slop, but they sound metal as fuck
>>747614206>>747615506this is what people mean when they talk about audiences lacking "media literacy"
>>747615271>>747615439>>747615480The 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
>>747615480Because it's what was shown in the trailer. >alien factions with FTL travel fighting over mineralsI 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.
>>747615271rule of cool. space marines are cooler than drones
>>747614206I 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)
>>747615726idk in sc2 arcturus was always hyping up dominion troops. maybe all that medal stuff was just a few days of basic>>747615764i 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>trainingIt 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 rifleI 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 moronYeah 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.
>>747616539>Yeah but I would never feel this way about the Tolkien universe???????? that's because you're dumb as fuck. lotr is an ahistorical hodgepodge of different cultures and time periods with underground cities and saxon steppes cultures (with no horse archers)
>>747616130Fuck people who expect realism in fiction. As long as suspension of disbelief is achieved, then it's all that matters to meThis retard looking at remote drones and expecting every writer to replace all infantry with them is a massive sperg, not worth wasting energy on
>>747616669>>747616709lmao ok enjoy your 1998 IP because "based blizzard" made it 28 years ago I guess, I just grew up and moved on.
>>747616882you noticed one thing unrealistic in a work of fiction because you're an idiot who can't notice all the other fucking things wrong with it. also you think lotr is realistic (lmao)
>>747616882I will enjoy it, thank you.Enjoy your miserable life and find different hobby, preferably something that doesn't have a community on this website
>>747615506humans are full of goo the leaks out when you punch holes in them
>>747616095starcraft lore isn't about making sense, it's about coming up with excuses to include cool and nostalgic shit from the pop culture IPs of the dev's childhoods
>>747617204ThisStarcraft is older than the average poster by nearly a decade.Things were not explained to make them make sense, they were explained to make them seem cooler. Not everything needed a military historian on staff to fact check naval doctrine to see if this ship makes sense, the ship was made to look cool, with the explanation being WHY it was cool
>>747614206I want to see more cheese strats in the game. i want to see a planetary fortress built next to a nexus, or a single probe cannon rushing your encampment.
>>747614206I 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
>>747615726I know the whole brainwashing thing was used by the confederacy but I'm not sure about Mengsk's dudes. It kind of makes sense to give all this shit to bootfuck recruits intended to be cannon fodder>put them through bullshit training drills that ultimately don't prepare them that much but makes them feel like super hardcore killing machines>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>while they're getting butchered by the hundreds send in the actual best dudes 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
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 marinesThis 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.
>>747615726I 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.
>>747617064You ok jeet? Your grammar is a bit off there bud.
>>747617204>>747617620aka shitty millenial unc writing
>>747615506>or kinetic energy from zerg's attackYou'd need a ridiculous amount of kinetic energy to liquify someone and it'd probably crumple the suit
>>747614206Yikes! Holy bombad! Why-for dat scary zergling looky just like Jar-Jar Binks?!
>>747614206probably roach acid
>>747616539You're the equivalent of some sperg asking why an army of elves carrying warbows only fired when ordered to and not individually as soon as they could (which was what happened on real medieval warfare) Or why the orcs didn't develop a testudo strategy after milenis of getting Btfoed
>>747616539LOL this darkie can’t enjoy a reading of war of the worlds anymore! let’s all laugh at him!
>>747621154It was almost entirely boomers and xers
>>747614206Why even waste resources on power armors if they don't do a damn thing? Might as well put them in rags and give each a rifle like the talibans
>>747623157They're interstellar empires. Power armour and gauss rifles is sending them into battle in rags with rifles.
Why don't they just shoot from inside the barracks????Its a literal floating fortress
>>747614206Acid from the mutas
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?
>>747623275That'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.
>>747623157Environmental protection, they can operate in vacuum. Also strength enhancements so they can wield heavier weapons and move farther for longer and faster.
>>747623661You 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.
>>747623157The 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.
>>747614206what race was this guy? it for sure wasn't white but it seems they have dialed the nigness down to like a third or quarter
>>747615271Isn't this basically what the Protoss are?What are Reavers if not super drones?
>>747614206Banelings.
>>747623808>what race was this guy?Mar Sara mongrel
>>747623768Not only are they barely hanging on they're surrounded
>>747624010The zerg are encroaching on them big time.And this new game is supposed to take place 70 years later. That's insane.
this game universe is retarded and was invented when smartphones didn't even exist
>>747614206ok but can you play as futa protoss
>>747623556I 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.
>>747624208no manbut ask around >>>/lgbt/you might find want you want there
>>747619819>>747620693this trailer was smarter than I gave it credit for.all it's missing is the hicks and space western vibe of old SC. the SC2 dominion always felt like a empty empire trope of a tired and bored writing room
>>747624116>>747624010seeing it like this really makes you realize how smalltime and fucked humanity is
>>747615271>when asked Tolkien why they didn’t just fly the eagles into Mordor, he replied “shut up”
>>747624459This is such a dumb memeYou really want corrupted invisible super giant eagles flying around?
>>747614206He didn't turn into goo, he just bled out.
I don't understand how they managed to make a trailer that's a joke that lands the punchline but fails the setup. it seemed like it was supposed to be like one of those starship troopers type propaganda videos but it came across as an ultra cringe us army recruitment video.
>>747624720The morons will tell you how it is intentional. The trailer was weak as fuck.
>>747614206The atmosphere liquidified him after his armor failed?
>>747624628How did the insignia fall out with the blood if it was pinned to his shirt
>>747615348>they still won thus allowing them to salvage the armor.Nice, i didnt consider this.So he actually participated in glorious victory.
>>747624459lotr makes more sense when you consider that everyone was under the rings influence and it actually wanted to be carried into mordor by a weak and easily rapeable hobbit.People have arguments against this theory but i think they are weak
>
>>747614206JACKED OFF AND GOOD TO GO
>>747619819>distraction>recovers the armorYou know what's cheaper than recovering armor? Keep your distraction alive.Marines are disposable in the sense of>yeah we cant send backup good luck faggotsSending them all to die without showing how they actually nuked (literally or otherwise) the zerg is why the trailer sucks.
>>747625065Thing is, that is so on-the-nose WH40K that the trailer felt more like some weird riff on blood angels. I get that young blizzard ripped 40K off but one would hope after having a sweet storyline with raynor, Kerrigan and others they would differentiate themselves. Then they drop this bullshit on us. What the fuck.
>trying to do the human wave trope without having read Starship Troopers or understanding why it works when 40k throws millions of guardsman into a grindertrailer looks cool though
>>747625204the trailer was a joke, just not a very good one. they needed to do more to let you know you were watching a joke from the start instead of it being a realization at the end.
>>747625232It's not at all, you're just so plugged into the 40k meme sphere you see 40k in everything.
>>747623721Nigger the US Army left a bunch of tanks in Afghanistan because it was supposedly cheaper to leave them and build new ones than it was to put fuel in them and drive them away.
>>747625432But starship troopers the book had guys dropping in from space and launching nukes what does that have to do with le human wave trope or whatever nitpick you have with Starcraft?
>>747625432There's no human wave tactics in Starship troopers, which you would know if you'd read it.
>>747624010>A map of the major powers of the Koprulu sector in my crossover fanfic "Koprulu War".lmao https://www.deviantart.com/facepalmpunch/art/352696270
>>747625630>>747625665Operation Bughouse is kind of an important part of the story
I dont know why people are starship troopering it its clear all a reference to alls quiet on the western front movie. Its a good movie you should watch it
>>747625754It was a combined arms operation, there were no human waves.
>>747615271The most unrealistic part of the entire thing is they ship them with faulty weapon. Why waste time training fodders just for them not being to use those training
>>747625204Anon, it’s a metaphor for the machine and to show the dominion treats people like zerglings
Why do some people think that they're trying to depict the bugs as the good guys? You can depict military service as grueling and thankless and war as hell while still having a clear, obviously evil enemy.
>>747626243But the Dominion doesn't treat people like Zerglings. It hasn't since Mengsk died, which was 70 years before the trailer.
i thought the dogshit ending of sc2 made it so the zerg were peaceful and no longer needed to assimilate anymore after kerrigan fucked off and and the protoss and terrans also coexistnow the 3 way ‘status quo’ of 1/2 is suddenly back because the hacks at blizzard cant think of any other story?
>>747626598>lets make a starcraft game where the marines aren’t shooting down hordes of zergThat pitch got shot down faster than a really fast thing.
>dude this is unrealistic>dude this kind of material can't exist>dude you can't travel this fast>dude why is this species acting like that>dude why why do people have to strip every piece of media and analyze it like that all the time, instead of jusst reading somethign fantastical and accepting it as it is? it's just science magic, why anaalyze it? is it a pseud thing?
His commander activated the self destruct button, to make room to create more goliaths, since his marine+medics strategy wouldnt work anymore
>>747626229the acid breaks the gun
>>747623157It's not any different than wh40k where lasguns are genuinely worth more than the guardsman using it

>>747626243It's a 'metaphor' for how Starcraft is literally playedDo you think you're being cruel or whatever when you produce a heap of marines and then attack-move them towards the enemy base
>>747615271They 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.It's a really poor attempt at shock value.
>>747615271Isn't sending in remote controlled robots what Marathon is about?
>>747627248It was supposed to be shocking? I thought it was cool.
>>747614965>how did the barracks surviveLings can't attack air
>>747615271Muh realism faggots are such retarded dipshits.The dudes in power armor fight against the alien bugs because it is fucking COOL, you fucking subhuman retard.
>>747627248It's just meant to show how brutal the war and the zerg are, that even with all that training and fancy tech they still have such a short life expectancyI think going with such a realistic CG aesthetic was a mistake, it made lots of people take it way too seriously and go digging for pseudo bullshit
>>747615271>muh bideo games aren't realistic I've never once thought that realism was fun
Come to think of it, this game takes place 70 years after sc2.Wasn't Valerian supposed to make the dominion super wholesome?
>>747624010>MONKEY>MONKEY>MONKEY>MONKEY>MONKEY>blue monkey>zergHOW DID ANDROSS LOSE LYLAT
>>747627248Dunno 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. The confederacy didn't have that luxury so they went with using convicts hopped up on mind bending drugs and brainwashing.
>>747627439Eh? Do 'wholesome' space empires not still train soldiers to fight invading enemies?
>>747627520Was the dominion portrayed as wholesome in the trailer?
>>747626303Because some of these fags have grown up to become the male equivalent of karens.
>>747624116Koprulu is that big? I thought it was some backwater random ass corner of the galaxy.how did the protoss and the terran not meet if they were neighbors for 200+ years.the terrans knew about the zerg but not about the giga brain worms and the overmind.
>>747627439proxy 2rax is still a strong opening regardless of how wholesome you are
>>747627572What do 'wholesome' empires do differently for training soldiers?If I played the 'wholesome' empire in a SC2 game, would I not still be pumping out Marines and attack-moving them towards the Zerg?
Could the muttmarine have survived if the terran player had better micro during his barracks rush?
>>747627404>It's just meant to show how brutal the war and the zerg are, that even with all that training and fancy tech they still have such a short life expectancyI understood that perfectly Aliens and Starship Troopers did that decades ago, but if they had moved a bit further from the barracks before being zerg rushed suspension of desbelief would have been held. >>747627337It's supposed to be gritty and shocking, the muttoid training for years and with hopes of making it big gets wrecked in the first 5 seconds of deployment and his armor reused to begin the very same cycle.Well, Blizzard fans aren't know for their smarts.
>>747627675No, a wholesome empire has medivacs ready
>>747614206What surprises me the most is that these are volunteers they are sending to the suicide attack and not penal soldiers.
>all these dipshits whining about the marines getting chewed trough by a wave of zerglings.Have you niggers ever fucking played starcraft? Barring the barracks deplolyming marines, the trailer was bascially game accurate. Barracks being able to load up on and deploy marines would be cool as fuck gameplay feature as well.
>>747627404Blizzard 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.
>>747627479>That's just how dictatorships workMy parents and grandparents lived through one.You don't know shit.Nothing more retarded than an Amerimongrel talking about Dictatorships and Communism based on how they feel.
>>747614206
>>747627795>Game accurateThe game doesn't show me Marines getting trained for several months
>>747627439its 70 yearsmaybe his son is a gigachud who decided that the good 'ol days of grampa Mengsk were the best
>>747627848A shame modern 40Gay is just as sanitized and shit as Soicraft has been since inception.
hes a piece of meat boy
>>747627871So? The game also doesn't show you the marines being born and their parents raising them etc.That doesn't mean that in game, the marines are still supposed to be humans that had a background, they aren't born in the fucking barracks.
>>747627848for the last time, Gauss rifles would easily wreck 40k power armorand Terrans churn out Marines on an industrial scale while it takes decades to produce a single Astartes
>>747627928>So?So it's not game accurate
>>747627834I'm happy for you anon but you're still wrong.
>>747627248In 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.
So we're all in agreement that this will just be a Helldivers copy, right?
>>747628080>ur wrongGo die for Israel
>>747615506>AI saidDo you dumb niggers have any thoughts of your own?
>>747628273Saw an interview with some youtuber called Destin and it apparently a story game, with a beginning, middle, and end. Kind of sounds like the end of the character's story isn't necessarily the end of the game.So it might just be Skyrim with guns and space.Oh, also, it's third person shooter. Not FPS.
>>747614206>>747628652Found the vid for anyone that wants the barest sniff of informationhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9ONFf0YUvkThere's not much. Considering the game's only 3 and a halfish years out, they seem to have almost nothing fully built for it.

>>747626850Why are they wearing maid outfits?
>>747623157This 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. Plus gives them defense against the gauss rifle recoil, this is why SC1 armor was so full of custom hackjobs and painted decals: it's your factory work uniform, of course any blue collar will customize it, this Made each marine unique in the cutscenes.

>>747627140no? it ended with valerian and horner ushering a new age of prosperity for the dominionthe next generation or the one after fucked everything up apparently and zagara clearly failed to unify the zerg
>>747629152cause they're maids? what kinda question is this
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?>>747629186If 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 armorNo? 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.

>>747629786holy sovl
>>747629786Mengsk kinda does that with the Dominion Troopers in Co-Op missions.>>747630058One of the best power armors designs out there.>Industrial>Heavy duty>You can make each look unique >Smoking inside the suit
>>747627872sons love sticking it to their fathers by trying to be like their grandfathers s
>>747629452I mean I assumed it was just set during SC2 or in some border skirmish right before it. It's just a conceptual trailer made by marketers getting cliff notes of what the designers were thinking the new game's tone and atmosphere should be.
wh40k ripoff
eh, starcraft's worldbuilding is just not as interesting as 40k.
>>747614206The suits might be dipped in a vat of acid first that dissolves organic matter to make them easier to hose down.The hydralisk claw we see fall off in an earlier suit sort of debunks that, but maybe it only dissolves soft tissue.
>bro dying in a war is so based yeah fuck this yank propaganda, israel are paying for this game
>>747630193>eldarfag falseflagging againlmao, go back to /tg/
me as the armor jannyget to weld all day
>>747630751>40toddler thinks that someone shitting on their action figures MUST be all the same guyOkay dumbass-kun.
>>747623556WoL 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.
>>747629186The 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.>>747629786I'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.
>>747630727You're baiting. You cannot be this stupid. This trailer was extremely antiwar.
>>747630919>post protoss coom, pleaseOh shit, I'm sorry, taufag
>>747623556I 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.
>spergs arguing about the gameplay logistics of a cinematic trailer
>>747631259People still regard games as art rather than products, that's why.
>>747631259Blizz likes to put little snippets of their game into trailers sometimes, like the 4 gate cinematic, this is what a proxy rax looks likeI genuinely don't understand what people are so upset about
>>747627248>which makes no pratical sense if he's just going to be used as a meatshield and die in the first 5 seconds of battlein the lore their life expectancy in combat is 9 seconds, terran marines die like flies
>>747624010>Lylat spaceIs that really what it's called? Are there psychic blue foxes there?
Hydralisks spit acid, the black gue is how organic matter ends up.
>>747625616Well you can't just drive a tank out of Afghanistan.
>>747631582How many of you faggots have never played the games? In what universe do hydralisks spit acid?
I'm more incensed by how the official trailer on youtube is only in 1080p.It's a sign of Blizzard shitting the bed.
>>747623808your biological father's race
>>747631703You can fly a plane though.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDyBgOfHLy0
>>747631757embarrassing secondary
It's going to be slop.
>>747631582>>747631862Hydralisks shoot needle spines. Their weapon profile is literally called "needle spines" in SC1. You seem to think they shoot acid because they made a spitting sound.
>>747632067Perhaps there were some Roaches just offscreen that shot a hot load on him?
>>747631831A lot of that shit was intentionally left for the ANA to use.Of course it was no surprise that the ANA folded instantly, but they had to pretend it was going to work and they hadn't wasted 20 years and $2+ trillion.
>>747615726Thing is that even Marines need training in order to stay sharp. Hypno-docrtination, psycho-conditioning and other brain-altering stuff isn't the only thing here.Just because a good chunk of them are reformed criminals doesn't mean they are immediately good in a fight.
they're eating herand then they're going to eat meOH MY GOOOOOOD
>>747614206The salvage crew actually poured a bunch of caustic soda into the suit so they could just pop it open and blast it with a hose.
>>747627439He's dead along with MattAll of the SC and SC2 characters are all dead save for the Protoss and Zerg ones
You can literally see him get acid attacked in the trailer, zoomer. Maybe stop checking tiktok every second and pay attention?
>>747631862It's always funny when you fucking faggots pretend that you're not the fucking secondaries
>>747627595The Protoss are the typical le dying ancient race confined to a handful of planets.The humans sent to the Koprulu Sector kept having sex after cryosleep ensuring they had billions a few generations later.The UED unironically has the largest military force in the lore and the fleet you destroy in Brood War was just a "scouting party".
>>747626598The 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.
>>747632702>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 latersource?
>>747614286Fpbp
>>747629786I always liked how one of the Marines in the Amerigo cutscene was lugging around a fire extinguisher on his back.
>>747632662that was actually retconned in Starcraft Gaiden X
>>747630193Selendis a cute. Given how protoss live for ages, I hope the game sees some of the protoss characters return
>>747631365>I genuinely don't understand what people are so upset aboutIt's retarded culture warriors, tourists and grifters trying to throw a shitfit and "drama" over the trailer because that is how they have been trained they gain engagement and the retarded mongoloids that follow that behavior even here, act accordingly.I guarantee that there is some fucking subhuman retard twitter faggot or kiketuber that is fanning the flames of this "controversy" that half of the people bitching about the trailer are getting their opinions from.
Even if Valerian was a benevolent leader his successor/descendants probably aren't like IRL monarchyHis son probably thought his grandpa was more awesome despite not knowing any better or he got murked before he got old
>>747632765For 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.
>>747632669The Protoss only became le dying ancient race when they got their shit pushed in by the Overmind crash landing on their homeworld and butchering the rest of them that didn't make it to their banished brethrens home.
I think that his body is still logded in there, zerglings just got him pretty bad through those few holes they did. He didn't become all goo
>>747615271>After seeing what they can do with just regular drones, why the fuck would you waste time waiting and training humanWhy do you think anyone still has infantry?
>>747633797Because at the end of the day, you need people on the ground to beat the enemy into submission the old fashioned way and remind the populace that they are about to be under new management. Saying drones will replace infantry is about as silly when military commanders that airplanes would, or tanks would, or whatever the new weapons technology was.
I feel like if they wanted to go the "haha le satire" route Helldivers 2 went for they should have REALLY leaned into it and made it much, much more comical. As is, the "twist" of the trailer was obvious from second one and 95% of it was therefore completely pointless.
Terrans have Ravens, sending Marines is cheaper than sending a highly complex AI drone that can do tons of stuffThey didn't send the Muhreens with Marauders, Firebats and Medics though
>>747615480Humans fight over mineral and gas rights everyday. If anything that's the most realistic part of SC.
>>747633720I never liked the sd2 broodmother systemreally all the zerg lore in sc2 was less cool than the overmind and cerebrate thingsc2 zerg are too dinosaury, it should just be brains and assimilated humans
>>747633584It's absolutely retarded that we have so many /v/tards just parroting whatever kiketuber they watch and just repeat whatever they say and then repost it here trying to make it like a big outrage when nobody gives a shit. You cant even argue about video games here anymore because nobody here plays the games they bitch about, they just repeat whatever faggot they watch.
they recovered his armor, ergo the dominion won in the endfresh recruits like him were used in the first wave while the veterans and heavy support were used laterthe dominion may be corrupt and retarded but they don't actively waste resources even if they do waste lives a ton in the series
>>747633720Why would Abathur do it? Is he retarded?
>>747615506Considering 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.>AI saidStop being retarded and try thinking for yourself.
>>747615506It was the acid you fkn idiots.
>>747633506How ARE new protoss made, anyway? Psychic crystal rubbing?
>>747634402Protoss have sex but they're like fantasy elves who have oneitis and agelessAnother way to bolster their forces is by building semi bio-robots from dead Protoss citizens and soldiers
>>747634189>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 burialsDamn, I didn't think about that. Great point. You can just powerwash the armor
>>747634402This 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.
>>747630193Blizzard's whole existence is just ripoff Warhammer + Diablo.
>>747634024He'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>Create a highly advanced breed of infiltrators immune to all currently available sensors>Jump the gun on your initial attack >Target gets saved by their escort>Dominion forces go to ground and start fortifying their position>Panic and order all your infiltrators to attack in a massive swarm like they're zerglings>Lose them allAnd this isn't even getting into the idea of an infiltrator that has no initiative and can only respond to pre-programmed vocal orders.
Why do you chuds ignore the fact that Starcraft (and especially Dominion) have always been pro-LGBTQ+?
>>747635319DADTDon't Ask. Don't Tell.Being gay or a woman is one thing. Being a faggot or feminazi foid who makes it apart of their entire personality is another.
>>747614286Criminally underrated post.

>>747635624That's from Starship Troopers.
>>747634878>"why does an alien that does not even have a mouth, have tits"Liquid Khala dispensers. They rub it onto their skin
>>747614206You realize that a vast majority of Zerg forms spit some kind of strong, biological acid, right? Goddammit why is 4chan full of retards?>They're Zerglings!Pretty sure it says somewhere that their saliva is corrosive.
>>747629786>the bit about every man in a squad filling all rolesdidn't the IRL US marines try to do something like that over the past few years? basically ditch all the regular rifles and the dedicated machine gun guy and just go "what if we just give EVERYONE big magazines?"
>>747629786It's interesting that of all the noted bits about the CMC-300 suit isn't even that it's armored, but that it gives the trooper more utility on the field than an unarmored trooper. I guess protection is more an afterthought.
>>747627595>Koprulu is that big?It's not, anon's map is absolute bullshit.Aiur, Mar Sara, Char are within spitting distance of each other. There's a dozen or so planets across all the games combined.Meanwhile his map would put it at billions of star systems. The person who made it knows fuck all about Starcraft and even less about the scale of the Milky Way.
>>747620450I'm still mad...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_EloIP7Vfk
>>747636521Yep. It's not taking a massive chunk of the Milky Way.The closest thing is this map and even then it's made from speculations and analyzing EU material.Blizzard needs to finally make a proper map.
>>747636142No. Zergling saliva has no corrosive qualities.Probably the corrosive explosion the guy in the trailer experienced came from a Mutalisk attack.
>>747637141Didn't ask
>>747614206>they show his armor slowly dissolving when he's blasted with acid>then cut to his broken visor>"HURRR HOW HE GOO?!!!"

>>747615271I'm so tired of autistics crying things aren't realistic for each and every series set in space or considered sci-fi. You are the same as train, Sonic, or My Little Pony autists. Nobody likes you. Die.
>>747637194Deal with it.
>>747614206He didn't, they removed his body, then sent the suit back to be cleaned/repaired. You see a piece of his skull fall out and blood during the cleaning process.
>>747615271>why dont terran players just nuke zerg? they cant do anything about it right? kek you dont play starcraft. the trailer fit the game perfectly.
>>747639060No.
>>747639786If they removed the body, why did they not take his dog tag?
>>747615271I know how you feel. I watched black sails and all I could think was, why aren't they using drones?
>>747639836Your problem then.
>>747638691I blame /tv/
>>747639852I think thats the cleaner's job, he had a collection of dog tags.

>>747617024I will enjoy it, now fuck off and die sucking dicks you corny faggot lmao MUH COMMUNITY
>>747614206That cinematic is funny because infantry are nothing but a means to make the enemy waste bullets. The concept of muh heckin super hero one man army is problem the lowest IQ hollywood invention ever made. Literal cannon fodder.
Why are you guys fighting over a trailer of a game thats never coming out lolThis entire thing was a desperate plea to the pajeeta in charge to not fire any Blizz employees next year when the second round of layoffs comes up.Only thing actually being made rn is WoW Forever
>>747643156Infantry are for taking and securing ground.
>>747634024He'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 daysBesides, 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
>>747638152>over 9 seconds
>>747643156Assuming those bodies around that one soldier are his allies, what's even the point of wasting that drone on him? He's not turning the tide, he's not doing anything anymore, so it makes me wonder if the drone pilot thinks he's doing him a favor by putting him out of his misery or plain taking enjoyment from blowing him up.
>>747627248>this muttoid had years of trainingNigger, where the fuck are you getting the idea that he's had years of training? There's no actual time frame given but considering how disposable SC marines are, it was probably just a few weeks at most.
>>747629505I want to play this game and watch combat maids do combat maid things.

>>747614206You guys are lucky that they’re brave bcus if it was me I would’ve ran away and left all u bitches to die lmaoo
>>747646728You're retarded. The point was, a universe like tolkien is timeless because it's completely fantasy, the starcraft universe is aging because it tries to be somewhat realistic.
>>747648976Eh, how does the SC universe try to be realistic
>>747624459The eagle say it in the books"i am allowed to carry weights, not burdens"Implying there's a really big 4d chess being played around that little ring by supreme forces, and because that would make the story lame and gay.It's like asking how everyone died in the flood except noah and his ark when naval travel was a thing. Becuase you can't beat the author of a story, so get fucked and drown with the rest of the world.
>>747615271Drones haven't reduced the need for infantry. Drones are just a weapon like any other weapon
>Trailer where slave soldier gets turned into poop bile triggers every Manchurian candidate on the boardWhat did /v/ mean by this?
>>747614206>God I hope a Zergling doesn't press the marinara ejection on my suit.
>>747653313>god i hope a german soldier isn't aiming a gattling gun right at the doors of the ship once we land at the beach
>>747615271Reminds me of Earth 2150 where americans just built drones everywhere while russians kept sending humans to the battle.
>>747614206>>747614379StarCraft 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.
>>747614206>land on the planet>it's a bunch of overseers, zerglings, roaches and possibly banelingsShoulda just called this guy.
>>747651725People just thinking everything Blizzard does needs to be dunked on because the company is pretty faggy.They just can't admit they made a fun little trailer. If you want to make fun of something, make fun of the 2030 release date.
>>747654341Yes, and even creep is a living mega-organism that literally pushes you faster as you run and keeps you balanced the entire time. Most of these things are modifications to infested organisms though from Abathur.
ITT: people who never opened the manual of Starcraft 1.
>>747654574Firing Yamato cannon once probably costs more than all of that personnel and training combined, so nah
Why did they turn the badass psycho war enjoying marines into numale faggots?
>>747645348Every dead Russian gives them points to buy more gear with.I'm not joking, this is an actual system they've implemented.They've even had to change the rules about it to prevent game ruining by russians who commit suicide on camera before you could kill them - now a suicide also gives you points.
>>747645348>it makes me wonder if the drone pilot thinks he's doing him a favor by putting him out of his misery or plain taking enjoyment from blowing him up.Also, I should have responded more clearly to this in my first message.If the russian didn't want to die, he shouldn't have invaded another country.
>>747631139>>747630920Thanks for the response. Guess I'll try that at least before Dominion. Got plenty of time after all
>>747633797the 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.War changes
I'm a lazy steamie, why the fuck isn't starcraft on steam yet? They already brought over diablo and OW
>>747655405Because that's what happened to the devs too?

>>747657618Am I going to have to wait until 2030? I'll be old and grey
>>747656669>>747657618I think they're only doing new releases. None of the old Diablos or Warcraft games are on Steam.I don't think we'll see Star Craft 1 & 2 on Steam, unless they make a remaster.
>>747657892Fuuuck I guess I'll just have to get it on bnet then

Ok but if it's acid then why didn't it melt the suit?

>>747658265The lead guy said in an interview:>what would the aftermath be of someone who was inside that armor and who got absolutely destroyed by the zerg and the answer would be there's nothing left
When I first played starcraft as a starry eyed 10 year old back in 1998 I thought Overlords were the coolest fucking thing. Imagine my shock and dismay when I quickly discovered that they were just useless fucking flesh factories to up your population cap and didn't do much else.
Best was to play Starcraft/brood war now? I'll give it a replay and maybe unlike my 10 year old self at the time, NOT use power overwhelming for a change or operation cwal or show me the money or the gathering or etc etc
>>747614206For some reason I imagine suit has an inbuilt blender or something to quickly get rid of the body
>>747637456>government feeds lies and propaganda to brainwash young men into thinking they are warriors and heroes>only to send them to die with shitty equipment in a meaningless war in the middle of nowhereAmericans got triggered because this is what their government actually does to them irl.
>>747655405Because the marines were always fodder?

The protoss pylon rush from Legacy of the Void was even more desperate and retarded, yet there it was presented as epic and heroic even though literally all but one initial participants died while in the Dominion trailer Holt might have been the only one who fell for all we know.Let's face it, the snowflakes at Blizzard just hate humanity, they are humanophobes and xenopatriots.

>>747659339If you look at the Starcraft 2 reveal where Tychus is being suited up the suit is literally welded around him. So it's weird that now you have suits that marines can go in and out of
>>747616709It's especially retarded because terrans do have dronesIt's just that it also has rank and file marines because thats part of terran identityIt's like creating a GDI faction and not including a twin barrel tankOr nod without an obelisk

>>747659116Pylon 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.

>>747660057I figured its from somewhere in their gigantic head, like above the eyes

The war doesn't go smoothly in the book but that's not the same as saying they use human wave tactics.

>>747659975I 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.
>>747660898>I wouldn't be surprised if half the people going "the franchise is ruined" dropped the franchise after brood war and they act like they're propping up the genreI'm just saying that you're more of a subhuman than me for liking the abomination that is starcraft 2 trilogy.>>747660994That was only his and guns jam, it happens.

>>747662956Metzen 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.
Play Starcraft:>Every faction storyline starts out as fighting between the three factions but they each quickly devolve into civil war between each respective groupPlay Brood War:>Every faction storyline starts out as the original three factions banding together to fight off the UED but they each quickly devolve into civil war between each respective groupPlay Starcraft 2: >>>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.
>>747664276At the end of the day it's all just pretext for space soldiers and aliens to blow each other away for your entertainment
>>747655405Because (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.

I didn't play SC2 past the first, Terran, chapter. Did Kerrigan really not rein in her retarded spawn? Why would she just let the Zerg continue to assfuck humanity? She got her revenge on Mengsk, help out Jimmy's people.

>>747614206>hetry again tranny
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.
>>747668885>make IP for boys>beat your competitor>troon out before your competitor (getting horny when writing your villain and making her a villainess, and then getting horny when writing the sexual orientation of your scantily clad MOBA heroines, is how it starts)>covid hits>competitor eats up all the money>doesn't matter that the competitor trooned out too, they wonBlizzard could just target boys, and for the sake of the soiboys in the office, make some horny characters (not safe horny musclemommy, naked Cortana horny), and they'd win a king's ransom, every year for the rest of time.

>>747643156The 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.)

Idk what convinced the devs and the general public that starcraft is a humorless grimdark universe. Was it the brood war intro cinematic?

Conflict is still always going to be a fact of life in Koprulu because everyone is fractured, even the Dominion is going to have fuckers who use their power to pursue their own agendas and start shit with the ayys let alone whatever is going on with the zerg broods or protoss cultural shifts without the khala.The world is at peace in the sense that there's nothing like a mass war of extinction going on.
>>747682594Except it doesn't cause it workedThey recovered all the suits so they pushed back the zerg and wonProxy rax just werks

>>747682594They followed the Zapp Brannigan art of warfare. They just send wave after wave of their own men out until they win.
>>747682594>le epic starcraft 1 barracks rushThere were clearly 3
>>747682675This. Unironically, how was this a bad thing? War sucks, people die. This way less people probably died
>>747682792Its what I did back when I played Brood Warminus the winning part
>>747682594The 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.
>>747660757They didn't feel anything at all actually. They didn't even notice before they were everywhere.
>>747663627That isnt fucking fair bro. Raszagal was mind controlled and sent the "heroes" to attack him and his people, then he got murdered. There's no real evidence he was even leading a dark templar pogrom or anything.
Before this thread dies I would like everyone to know how much I love SC lore
>>747682935Its even more than that because we see the zerg have mutas which cost gas and lots of it which is at least tenfold more valuable than minerals. Rax and rines are pure mineral. So this is even a larger win.Proxy rax JUST WERKS>>747683218Same.
>>747683218half-life lore is better
>>747683305>we don know anything>loreTell me more about the Combine
>>747681858Tychus closing his visor with a fuming cigar in his mouth is infinitely more funny than an "ironic" verhoeven pastiche without the actual thing that makes verhoeven work.
>>747674465Its not even satirical outside of the few "Would you like to know more" clips at the beginning. Everything else was played pretty straight, and they actually were fighting a defensive war against giant, inhuman bugs.
