Thread: The White Marine

  1. #1

    Default The White Marine

    I was wondering who it could be, the White Marine in the trainer on the Hyperion, so I snapped a screenshot for a good look at who's inside...no one. Or at least, that ain't a normal Marine suit.



    So yeah, what's up with that? Blue visor, the stuff inside it? Either the person is wearing another mask or helmet or something inside the suit, or there's flat no one in the suit at all, so AI?

    SC2 handle - "DrakeyC, code 929"

    I ARE A PROPHET! I've predicted three major aspects of SC2 correct, more or less.

    June 2007 - I predicted the Protoss campaign would give you new tech as you conducted diplomacy among tribes.

    July 18th 2010 - I predicted Raynor would broadcast information of Mengsk's actions on Tarsonis to discredit him and incite rebellion.

    June 16th 2010 I predicted the Voice in the Darkness was the commanding force behind the Hybrids. I'm calling it half-right.

    I think it's Horace Warfield, no?

    His name is Dick... Moby Dick.

    Sorry, but couldn't resist with a thread title like this.

    But seriously, it seems to me the visor just simply reflects what's in front of the marine, a lighted circle on the floor with a person sprawled in it (whose hand we see in the second shot) and the lamps overhead, the angles of the reflection clearly change with his movement. Those visors are not transparent and do come in varying colours, as to the marine's alleigance, I would guess the Moebius foundation with the person on the floor being Kerrigan whom he wants to assassinate, since Narud/Duran serves the Dark Voice and can't be too happy about her being saved by Raynor. We saw similarly coloured units in the very first HoTS teaser that showed a raid on Kerrigan's facility, I suppose this is from the same cinematic sequence.

    No, it's clearly a different suit, besides the fact Warfield's mechanical hand isn't in view.

    White suits could just signify high-ranking Dominion military officers or something.

    So it could be one of Valerian's personal guard I guess...

    Or it could be Warfield in a slightly updated suit for HotS.

    I kinda thought they were special suits for dealing with zerg things. Would make a bit of sense.

    Nothing to back it up though.

    I wish instead of making more Marines (which is all we ever saw in WoL story mode) they would make new units, especially Protoss.

    First thing that came to my mind was some UED assassin, but it's probably just a high ranking Dominion Imperial Guard.

    It's definately not Warfield IMO, since his armor has safari/desert camouflage colors. (Which is visible during the closeup in the trailer)
    Towards the end of the trailer, you can also see Kerrigan telekineticly lifting two of these white-armored guys. (Comes shortly after the drop pod sequence)

    Isn't I the only one who can see the obvious? That these suits are simply sophisticated Hazard Suits developed by Moebius?
    SC II - HOTS Coming Soon... What to expect? I don't know, I'm busy playing WoL.



    I failed a thousand-fold to many enemies, but won a hundred victories over the same enemy. Now he trembles in fear, knowing I am bettering at prevailing. Tremble, enemies of the Code. For I am Legionnaire and you are my enemy. Therefore, today, thou fall! - Imperator Davien Servolo III.

    You put it better than I did.
