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.

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.
