Not sure if this is old or not, but I haven't seen it posted before. Don't look if you don't want to see what they look like. There is no plot related stuff here either.

Haven't we had enough spoilers? The game is less than two weeks away. I could understand if this was 2008 or 2009 again but now it's time to just leave as much as possible for the release.
What spoilers? Sorry if you suddenly had a revelation and suddenly understand the plot of everything. But I always assumed that being in the battle.net profile portraits and all... this wouldn't be anything revealing. You get to see some game unit models, but we already know everything in that image. Nothing there is new.
When did spoilers all of a sudden mean story elements only? If it ruins a surprise, it's a spoiler. It's too close to release to be having any mystery destroyed.
You're free not to look you know. I don't know what surprise could come of knowing how something looks like. But it's not like I would have been amazed (and I'm not) to see how Raynor looks like in his marine suit. Or seeing the Merc Marine model (we already saw the portrait, is seeing the model really that much of a surprise or spoiler to you?).Quote:

For people that couldn't care less about details like these, (like me, or like some mappers, or Hammy, or whoever) they could find the image interesting.
I didn't look. Just makin' conversation. Don't be defensive.
Since when was I being defensive? You'll know I'm being defensive when I start using caps lock. UNDERSTAND? PEOPLE THESE DAYS, SHEESH.
Oh, was totally using Shift btw.
Relax bro. Just sayin' that I'm not going to spoil anything else is all. You seem to think I was saying you shouldn't have made this when all I was saying that I've had enough spoilers.Quote:

I know, I am relaxed. My last post was a total joke (me capitalizing a sentence and then saying I was using shift.) Although, I did post edit that shift part in so maybe you replied before you saw that :DQuote:

Oh, I knew that was a joke :D We're fellow GameFAQs "trolls", remember? We get each other's jokes :D
Anyways, what my original post basically meant was that there's been a crap ton of spoilers recently and I don't want to risk anymore. I can't go into the other topics to vent because I might see something. My statement was basically a general statement of the topics of this forum and my desire to keep as much as I don't already know a mystery.
Ah I see. Got it, no spoiler posts from me anymore then!Quote:

Ah, they look terrible. Was expecting something awesome.
Something cool happens at the end of the game.
OH NO I JUST RUINED IT!
not.
i feel ya tychus, im starting to stay away from this place slowly out of fear T.T
Wraith and Vulture look Bad Aaaaassss.
Can't say the same about the Goliath. Not sleek enough.
81 single player achievements...gotta collect them all!
Terra-Tron! Sweet! I also see some kind of APC between the NeoSteel Frame bunker and the Hercules heavy dropship! The Heavy Thor also looks pretty badass. Glad to see that model is still in! Upgraded SCV...odd. Spectre model doesn't look that great, but the Aberration and War Pig look both pretty awesome!
No sight of the Firebat, Predator (Cybercat), Predator (Air Superiority Fighter), Science Vessel, Raven, Banshee nor the Classic Dropship (seen dropping starting units in singleplayer demo videos). I'm guessing that the Air Predator is still in because it's not the only model missing here...Fingers crossed! That thing looked like a nice evolution of the Wraith.
The Hellion being more of a buggy, I'm also hoping to see some kind of jeep/hummer-like vehicle for the Terrans. (Remember the Stinger from SC:Ghost?)
The 1st page made me laugh :/
Also wth is 6 across 5 down? I can more or less guess the rest but I got nothing on that one.
I think they redesigned the Goliath to reinforce the idea of it being the weaker predecessor of the Viking more. Notice how they rearranged the missile pods and guns to match the Viking's layout.
The Goliath is actually a combination of the Terran version and the UED version. The Terran Goliath has no missile racks but has the big cannons. The UED one has 2 large missle racks but no large cannons.
Dude, the Goliath also had missiles and 2 machine guns in SC1. Only in the cinematics did the UED one have two large missile racks and 1 small gun underneath the cockpit. The artwork and renders for the actual Goliath show it having only 1 machine gun, but in-game it also has the 2 missile racks. That's in SC1.
I don't see UED style missle racks here.

UED Goliath doesn't have the 2 large cannons.

Both have the crotch machine gun though
You'll notice the Goliath looks like weak crap because of how they changed the way the guns look. Notice in SC1 that the Guns are 'slung over the shoulder'?
Now they look like they're 'shooting from the hip' if you know what I mean.
It looks really bad like that. They should really put the guns in their original positions, and have the missile racks located further behind, or above it.
Great point, I didn't notice that. But I don't know, that doesn't seem to cover it...
Does anyone else get the impression that they just look a lot more generic this time around? That Goliath looks to me like it could have come out of any game or anime or whatever, anywhere. There's absolutely nothing about it that stands out or looks bad-ass or cool.
It can't just be the guns, can it? :/
Hell, the Viking looks 100x better, and I never thought I'd be saying that back when we were still getting used to the Viking's "GONNA TIP OVER TO THE LEFT AAAANY SECOND N-- OH, TO THE RIGHT, AAAAANY SECOND NO-" design.
It's the head part and the balance of the parts, sizes positions, etc. It looks like it could fall down. It's not heavy, etc.
It can easily be fixed.
Some more achievement icons!
BTW, these achievement icons were hidden in the BNET site. I got them by viewing page info with Firefox...

I see a nuclear core or beacon of some sorts, two strange high templar, Mohandar's Void Ray, Urun's Phoenix, Selendis' Carrier (suggesting all the 3 Protoss leaders will appear in their units in this game, not just in LotV), Stettman's medic powersuit, Raynor with a big gun (which looks like it's out of WarCraft), a Merc Viking, a generator and a Merc BC (WTF! Looks bigger than a normal BC!).
I never said the UED Goliath has the 2 cannons and never noticed the normal Goliath ALSO had the crotch cannon. This doesn't really matter, as in-game, in SC1, the Goliath has BOTH missile racks and dual auto-cannons.

This is from the board game. It's been retconned to how it looked and worked in-game. (Auto-guns + missile racks)
