Looks like my second theory won't be that far from the truth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pirandello Posted June 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 WellPlayed.org - Heart of the Swarm Preview So, now we do know that we are playing as Kerrigan. She still sounds pretty Zerg-y in her speech. I'm more interested in whether she and Jim ever patched things up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vargras Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 (edited) I'm more interested in whether she and Jim ever patched things up. They'll probably address that. I'd say that it definitely helps that he personally came for her and stopped Tychus from killing her. In Wings of Liberty and the Heart of the Swarm teaser trailers, it's fairly obvious that he still cares for her somewhat. EDIT: They both also have a common enemy in Mengsk. Even if you sided with Nova in Wings of Liberty, it's worth remembering that she's still at the Dominion's beck and call (as seen in the teaser trailer).

TheMightyEthan Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 *casts Resurrect* New Heart of the Swarm info about new units: http://www.joystiq.com/2012/06/12/blizzard-talks-heart-of-the-swarm-multiplayer-and-whats-next-f/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luftwaffles Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 It looks interesting. Johnny and I have been talking a bit about the new units. The way I see it, Terran gets the (slightly) short end of the stick with the new expansion, but I have a feeling that's all likely to change in the next few days. As a Protoss and Zerg player who's not very good at either, I'm particularly curious to see if the Terran's new mines reflect damage back to friendly buildings as well, as that'll make for some interesting cheese possibilities with 6 pools and the like. Hell, even probes could do a fair amount of damage to buildings if they pick up a mine on the way and carry it into the enemy base before it explodes. Other that that, should be interesting to see how it changes MP a bit. The mineral deny that the Protoss has is going to be clutch mid-game if you can tech out the unit, and I'm interested to see how the Mothership Core changes early attacks and rushes with its recall. Only thing I'm not too excited about are the Tempest's 22 range and the Viper's Abduct, as both just seem to be able to reach a tad bit too far, but what do I know about balance anyway. I'm pretty sure they'll be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 I don't really play the regular multiplayer, so I'm not too worried about getting the balance just perfect. I either play the custom gametypes people have made or I play with friends against AI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 If you have a friend at about the same skill level you should give the normal multi a chance. It's quite fun to watch you and your friends' skills develop :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 I've played normal multi before, enough that I'm actually ranked or whatever in 2v2 and 3v3, I just don't really care for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 No one on this forum cares for the game but I figured I'd link the cinematic anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luftwaffles Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Samesies. I don't know if I'll pick up HOTS on launch, but it's definitely on my list of games to buy later in the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxicitizen Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 That makes three of us. Don't know what Dean is smoking but I am definitely getting HotS day 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mal Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 I'm a shame to the Asian Master Race so Dean is right on one end... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Just that the cinematic has been out a while and none of you seem too bothered to post it (and the thread having nothing else posted for half a year). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 I have intentionally not watched the cinematic cause I'm waiting to see it when the game comes out so it can have the proper mood effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxicitizen Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 (edited) Well, logged into my battle.net account earlier and I guess either the HotS beta is now open to everyone or I got lucky because there it was. So, you guys might want to check your accounts just in case. Edited February 12, 2013 by FLD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 I've been specifically avoiding the HotS beta, I don't want to get burned out on the multi before the game comes out. That happens to me a lot with betas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxicitizen Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 Then play them a bit less Personally, the campaign is what I'm most looking forward to anyway, so I don't see myself playing too much beyond a few games to try out the new units (most likely against the AI, if possible).

Mr. GOH! Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 So when is Blizz gonna sell the first SC2 for under $20 to entice all us newbies into getting HotS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
