BC2009 Sc2 Single Player Video: Colossus beams from giant Zealots?

I'm sure this has been posted and talked about, somewhere, but I cant seem to find anything in my searches.

Have you guys seen this video yet?



I am sure many of you have already seen this, but this is more for those who havent gotten to yet, and for a little discussion.

At about the 3:26 mark it will show the giant Zealots. I think this is actually an interesting unit. It looks pretty cool having the beams come out of their eyes.

I really like the different missions they've shown in this video, and I think they did a pretty good job putting a variety of different kinds of missions into the game. Obviously this campaign editor is going to be capable of some extraordinary things, and personally I can't wait to see what people come up with.

How do you like the giant Zealots? Also, is there a unit you'd like to see made into a special unit, similar to these zealots in the single player?

I for one would love to see a giant zergling running around biting the heads off everything, or a Hydra made huge which would be good for a godzilla type map.

I wanna see that two-headed fire-breathing ultralisk they promised us.

the stone zealots were fun, wiped out all my rines/rauders really fast.. had to send 3 groups.

I think its best to not do this type of thing multiple times though, it works well here, but we don't need every unit made into such a special unit, I'd rather see entirely new singleplayer units instead.

Really? I didn't have any problems at all with the stone zealots. Yeah, they were powerful, but I had a large enough force that the zealots were overwhelmed easily.

It may have been because I upped the difficulty to maximum and tried to rush through the mission as i worried too much about time

That's probably it. I didn't rush myself at the July press event. Plus I did the Evacuation mission first, so I had Firebats too, as well as the elite marine and firebat mercenaries.

I didn't have any problems with any of missions given to public.

Instead of going for Rines in that "artifact mission" I build Rauders with Medics.
In that evac mission, I build bunkers and missle turrents where overlords poped out, trying to spread creep.

"feels left out"

yeah, those giant zealots are pretty cool. I would also like to see a giant zergling :)

Only one mission made me sad... The Dig. IMO that mission was perfect for having Jim Raynor and Tychus Findlay as heroes. I really like the descriptions of Tooth and Nail. The mission design looks awesome (I heard it was too easy though) and ... Tal'darim? Loregasm...

I don't like those zealot. It's too corny. I just don't see Protoss making defense mechanism like this.
