Mr. Jack hired by Blizzard

[Bobo]

My guess is that Mr. Jack will invent new zerg strains for Hearth of the Swarm.

Starcraft 2 delayed 1 more year so Mr Jack can work some of his magic.

I REALLY hope he gets to work on SC2 expansions.

[Caliban113]

I just hope they get him to work on the Roach Warren and the Spine Crawler.....Like...stat.

His Lurker model would work out pretty good.

[Wankey]

Yeah same, I hope they hired him ‘cause of his zerg work (and that they really needed to boost the zerg because IMO right now it fails)

[Quirel]

Yeah...
I doubt any of the "Core" zerg units would get revamped, but I would love to see him rework the Lurker and the Baneling.

[DemolitionSquid]

Yeah...
I doubt any of the "Core" zerg units would get revamped, but I would love to see him rework the Lurker and the Baneling.

Wtf is wrong with the Baneling? If any unit needs to be redone, its the Brood Lord again. If its going to evolve from the Corruptor instead of the Mutalisk, it should look the part.

[ManjiSanji]

Finally, REAL NEWS!

And not only that, the BEST SC2 news in a long time!

[supersonic]

I really hope he makes Zerg the living, thriving, terrifying swarm it can be... and FAST!

[Nicol Bolas]

I'm trying to figure something out.

Mr. Jack draws pictures, yes?

So here's a question: how do you expect someone who does no modeling, texture work, shaders, or animation to, "[make] Zerg the living, thriving, terrifying swarm it can be?" Because it seems to me that the commentary against the state of the Zerg is focused on, you know, the modeling, texture work, shaders, and/or animation.

You can draw all the concept art you want. It still must be filtered through modelers, texture artists, shader programmers and animators. All of them have specific needs and limitations on what the final product will be. Concept art is the beginning of the process, not the end. And, particularly for an RTS game where each polygon and shader is precious, it's not even the most important part.

[Pandonetho]

Just base your models off of his concepts. He doesn't necessarily need to do the work himself.
