Does anyone else keep mistaking these for Zerglings/Drones running into your base? :mad:

All the freaking time.
The first time I saw them (I think they were added with the latest patch? If not, I certainly didn't notice them before, somehow) I freaked out and ran to raise my Depots.
"How'd they get past my army?!" :eek::eek:
:o
sorta
I'm looking for some REAL critters
not silly looping doodads
pisses me off
i think they are broodlings
Screenshots plz.
I almost shit myself when saw them. Well, not that bad, but was like: WTF is that?!?!Quote:

Same here... and it never stops! There were three times in same game I was shocked to see a Zergy looking unit past my choke point. You think I would get used to it after the first couple times I see it.Quote:

Maybe if they changed the colors of the critters or put them somewhere else...
Gah im glad to find out that im not the only one whos freaked out because I thought I saw some sort of zerg flyer when my army is weak on anti air.
Those things drive me crazy! I guess it keeps me on my toes, though...
Kulas Ravine is supposed to be serene :(
Instead those bird-wannabes give players stress! I want to sic my Hydralisks after them each time...

Yeah it's lame. What's cool though is that they added a shark at the bottom left of lost temple! :-D
Seems like the Terrans sent a lot of animals from here... :pQuote:

They definitely look too zerg-ish. They look kinda cool I guess, but they can't have critters or doodads that look too much like one of the races. Imagine if they're were robotic criters/doodads that moved around, or scientists or something. Even though you know they aren't units in the game, when you're in an intense game, your immediate reaction is to freak out because you breifly associate them with an enemy race.
They need to bring back the old-fashioned beast critters from SC1. They could make them look really cool with the new graphics engine.
I'm at work now so I can't look it up, but aren't there critters in the map editor ??Quote:

Anyway I totally agree that they are annoying, but I think I'll get use to it, only played on Kulas Ravine to times....
Yeah, me too.
Was playing with ricky when I though hellions were coming my way.
I get scared by the critter of twilight fortress... xD!!!
The first time I saw them I was puzzled, but I don't mind them at all now.
First time I saw one out of the corner of my eye and thought the other player had some how teched up to mutas in 2 minutes. Scared me to death.
All I had was a handful of marines to counter.
Thankfully it was just the damn flying doodad. :)
I hardly notice them now...
Anyone wanna actually post a picture of which bird or xeno creature doodad is doing that to you guys? I haven't really had any reactions like that to them.
i thought lings, muta's, and/or a drone was getting into my base and i was all like 'oh crap he's going to see my dastardly plan"
i remember first time i saw them i almost said gg cause i was goin into ultra tech mode and had basically nothing :P
than im like "wait a second...."
My first half-second reaction when I first see those things flying over my chokepoint is "Shit! I can't build there now..."
They're annoying in the sense that virtually everybody gets tricked by them but I really think that's cool. I always smile to myself after realising how many times I've made the same mistake :P
The first time I thought they were some crazy zerg unit lol, but I love them now :D
Yea, the first time I got freaked out. I still have to double-take when I catch them in the corner of my eye, but It's not as bad as before. I don't like them and they should be moved.
I'm gonna second the sentiment that they shouldn't be removed. So I freaked out once or twice. Big deal. :)
Yup, startled me the first time. Now they're just wildlife to me.
I wouldn't mind them flying around the middle of the map, but right around my workers is a bit startling. I don't know if I'll ever get used to that. Maybe they can make it so it doesn't appear near your main base.
Oooh.. I see what you mean (or saw, yesterday) Some one on my livestream pointed it out... your talking about the flying turtle things with tenticles right?
