What's this!? Where did you get that pic?
Ladies and gentlemen, we have Forerunners.
The new website...

oh.. I thought it came with the recent patch.
Looks sexy.
Love how they show the Xel'naga space tileset but not the snow tileset
*rage*
Wow. There's some really good new artwork on this website. New Folsom is apparently an artificial world; detailed view of Zeratul's CG face; Valerian's CG render...
... and Ariel Hanson without her glasses. Oh so very cute. ;)
Also a new pic of Tosh. Is it just me, or does he remind you strongly of Riddick?
And it's Horace Warfield!
I'm so very happy with this.
I knew it existed jejeje
So yea I guess your suppositions are right, but its not entirely operational. It actually looks like an old temple (not much appreciated in this picture) But most doodads we found earlier where broken or showed a dull design.
I almost jizzed.
Fuck, that looks SWEET!
Holy baby Jesus, I didn't know today was a holiday! So much artsy goodness. MHM!
So that's who that white Marine suit was for near the top of the wall of portraits, that isn't (so far) unlockable in the game. Horace Warfield. Huh.
Also, after that pic I have to say I'm setting my expectations for the Xel'Naga Platform terrain a lot lower than they were to start with. Something about it looks too much like Burning Crusade. Could be just this one SS, I'll wait for more for final judgment.
lol its from the battle net site...how could it be fake?
For those too lazy to go through the (very interesting) list of art themselves, here's the bits I found most interesting.
SCIENCE VESSEL

STETMANN AS MEDIC

SWANN AS MARAUDER

HORACE WARFIELD

There's also 2 adjutants (one is called "Confederate Adjutant") total, and there's a Dominion repaint of Marauder, and a Dominion repaint of Marine (along with about 10 different faces/mask paints).
What's with the archon madness in the beginning.
Yes Blizz they look frikkin cool but they suck balls. Otherwise would use them.

Too bad he looks like Val Kilmer in the actual game...

I can't be the only one who instantly thought of Arthas when I saw Valerian's high res portrait.
I know I did. Plus he's a prince, too, hehe.
BTW, these achievement icons were hidden in the BNET site. I got them by viewing page info with Firefox...

Holy crap they weren't kidding when they said it's impossible to escape from. Jesus. o.o
Zeratul running away after the fight w/ Kerrigan:

Art of Zeratul in cavern:

It's amazing how they can make their cinematics look exactly like their artwork. This takes true skill.
Kerrigan looks prego here:

i think after that first batch of achievement pics, most of those are for singleplayer.
wow amazing...
can't wait to have all achievements :3
I love how terrible terrible "whatever" became Blizzard's trademark XD.
Got this error message:
PAGE NOT FOUND
The page you were looking for either doesn't exist or some terrible, terrible error has occurred.
I know, Gradius. I was convinced these were cinematic shots, but then I looked closer and spotted the individual brush strokes. I was astounded.
I'll never get that good, but it's a good goal. I'd bear that artist's children.
O_O /loregasming drool...
However, I still don't now this new "Xel'naga Platform" WoL gameplay pic and the Ulaar loading screen is linked with/or could be the (suggested) Xel'naga Worldship Ulnar.
Wait, that's part of a worldship? Eeeenteresting.
we're fighting ON a worldship?
The Xel'Naga are here already WTF?!?!
It's probably an abandoned worldship.
I like how all these ancient artifacts are only now allowing themselves to be discovered. Very convenient timing.
You never know, this could be single player.
I think its pretty clear thats a multiplayer map. If it was single player, we would have to assume that the it is a mission where you play as protoss wherein you get no custom units and heroes and build bases like you do in multiplayer.
That is very unlikely. In addition, every single other picture in the slideshow are almost certainly pictures of multiplayer.
I find it surprised that the Protoss did not happen to find this abandoned floating Worldship.
Especially the Motherships
They only found 1/8th of the xel'naga worlds. They're bound to miss a lot.
