they really fucked up with the mothership, its literally JUST an aribiter now, it can't even take out 8 marines OR a missile turret anymore. ITS A GOD DAMN MOTHER SHIP IT SHOULD BE ABLE TO KILL A BATTLESHIP (provided the battleship doesn't Yamato-gun it in the face)
In the trailer they were like having this serious voice guy to explain all that to make ppl get excited and then got rit of those awesome skills even before ppl getting to try it even in the use map settings. It's totally gone. Blizzard asshole get freezed to death !
u know, this looks so epic, i wouldn't mind seeing this ingame now. but maybe it should be like, that instead of missiles falling to the ground, they will hit their target after field expires
@MostazalsLord the goon would have been fine, in lore the stalker and dragoon were identical, the only difference was dragoon was like all gold holy high toss where the stalker is scrap parts shadowy dark toss, but since the ability to make new goons is gone,they were re outfitted with the new immortal cannons but in theory, a dragoon and a stalker should be on equal ground, except a stalker can blink, but a goon would have the harden shell ability still making them op
@sedwardpenton Goons are ok not being in sc 2, though I do believe that the lore excuse was kinda poor. As for what concerns to the gameplay, I can say blink is kind of a big advantage the goon and the immortal lack. Yes, I miss de goon a little bit, but the stalker is quite decent for me.
@MostazalsLord well the goon excuse is pretty good, first protoss mission in brood war, the zerg take the protoss home worlds and destroyed the ability to make new dragoons, that's why the mother ships and colossi came back, they were anceint war machines from when the protosss was young and violent. but yea stalker to goon, is like ninja to samurai, the stalker is faster and more mobile, where as the goon is more armored and more flashy scare appeal
This is actually what the mother ship should have been able to do. Instead it is a useless late game units that stealths when the other player already has detection and shoots two laser beams about every 2 seconds.
the only thing that might make sc2 look cartoony is protoss. Look at the Protoss avatars. All dark, mystic and scary. And ingame ? It looks like a frkn yellow metal elfbase with all happy bright colored and shiny units, cruising lighbulbs, transparent flying flowers. But i guess it wouldnt be starcraft, if the developers would have changed that from sc1.
ps:thank god there is no timebomb ability for the mothership. It can only cloak a 200 army or a freakin canonbase below it. rofl
I always found it funny when Blizz tries to show off the cheesy "special effects" they have in SC2 like it was groundbreaking or something. SC2 one of the best RTS games ever but it cartoony, not detailed.
@SODEMO2007 wtf are you talking about its not cartoony and they do put a lot of little effects and details with lighting and shadows that make the graphics good. i seriously think you need to get your eyes checked. this video doesnt look great because its an old version.
@SODEMO2007 and name some of them... it doesnt look cartoony it has its own unique look and i have yet to see another rts that has physic, lighting, and shadow effects like sc2 does. starcraft doesnt try to be super realistic so dont compare it to games that do. look at what i mentioned and try to find another one that looks better and is more polished
@SODEMO2007 well thats your opinion and i guess your entitled to it, but personally i think dawn of war 2 effects arent very good, i cant really comment on company of heroes because i never could get into it long enough to remember specifics, and cc4 hasnt finished downloading lol.
@JpeltakaCyberBeast Obviously you aren't running Dawn Of War 2 on it's max setting as only a deluded fool would claim SC2 has the better graphics. Just taking a look at the texture size difference between the two games and the restrictions of camera control and zoom in SC that is not present in wow should be enough.
@SODEMO2007 i played warhammer 40k , chaos rising and retribution
all of em were fun and all but when it comes to strategy and replayability
it lacks both. Sc2 the reason why it looks cartoony to you because youre still playin it on a piece of shit computer that can barely run warhammer
so by comparison to how those two games look on the lowest resolution warhammer wins due to the fact that sc2 has the option to disable almost every effect in the game to appeal to wider audience with shitty pc
@crappywindow You're a fucking idiot. I play all those games on their highest setting. Your argument is so fucking weak I'm not even sure you're serious. Strategy and replayability wasn't even mention. Get your fanboy head out of your fanboy ass.
@HorizonShadow I don't think SC2 looks overly cartoony or anything but go look at Company of Heroes or Dawn Of War 2 in comparison. I Play SC2 a lot more than the aformentioned games these days but facts are facts.
i think this ability should be reintroduced. and cost a stupid amount of minerals. just to kill thos idiot terrans who go to an island and build 300 missile turrets
@romanknight6 then what the fuck did you call me a gamerfag for? makes no sense because of what i said before it now if you said "ya im not a gamer" then called me a "fag" it would make sense, but otherwise it just looks confusing.
@romanknight6 Sorry that was me when I first started SC1 in the old day XD was 13 and scared of stepping off my island XD now am toss and love DT and VR :D
Kiwikaki proves that a mothership can still wipe out an entire enemy army or economy with its two casting abilities. However, now that he's proved that, they're talking about nerfing it again....
@muffinboy101010 Hmm, I think it is mainly due to their psionics and not technology. They are more of a magic race than tech. Zealot/templar blades are psionic, storms are psionic, plasma shields are psionic ( some terran ghosts/psionics use those and blades in lore ), protoss air fighters control their aircrafts with psionics rather than navigational computer ( connect thought to the vehicle ). This is all from lore, so unless there is some kind of psionic heal?
@KainSlash lol wha? terran can heal, so what is your point? saying that also adds to my point, the protoss is the oldest of all species can't do it? the best reason if you go game wise is a pride thing, but if you go gameplay wise it's because they would be too strong to beat.
FYI terran medic's and medivac's can heal zealots and other bio guys.
@muffinboy101010 I think you haven't read both my commnets. =) You replied to the short second one. But I agree that it is a gameplay thing If not have heal they could atleast have repair.
@KainSlash changes nothing "terran medic's and medivac's can heal bio protoss units." so it is fact, but they never developed it, which leads me back to the pride thing, also eliminates your argument "How do you heal a plant?". even if they repair ships they still be overpowered because of shield.
@muffinboy101010 There is also one lore aspect. If I remember right they teleport their half-dead units back to the main ''base'', like when zealots explode that is actually a teleport for them to not die. So they usually don't have that much casualties lore-wise. They also make zealots/templars that are beyond healing into stalkers-immortals with advanced bio-technology OR psionics. So yeah. The fact that terran can heal protoss is a gameplay thing not lore. Terran don't know enough for real.
@muffinboy101010 What do you mean? I wasn't in an argument, I was sharing my thought on your comment to get to the bottom of why it is so, asking question and coming to a conclusion. I don't know everything about protoss health.
i wish they kept the mother ship cool like that, and instead just gave terran and zerg a extra lil' somthin somethin. I dont like the fact that its basicly just a arbiter, that takes out the whole "new game" feel.
@xxXRaymoondoXxx yeah, well now in SC 2 the Terran are the OP ones. Mass marauder pretty much tears through any ground unit Protoss and Zerg have. And btw, the mothership sucks in-game now. It should just be replaced by the Arbiter or Blizzard should give it a major buff. Cause as it is, it isn't worth the cash to get it. Id rather get a carrier, which can kill a mothership 1v1.
@inarush123456789 Terran aren't overpowered, you're just bad. Mass banelings will annihilate almost any Terran ground unit, save for tanks and thors which are immensely gas heavy. A few colossi/immortals with zealots as a meat shield will also do a serious number on an marine/marauder blob. Want to be fancy and use more micro? Sentries with hallucinations and force fields, high templar with psionic storm, infestors with fungal growth and so forth will do really well.
@fudgemanofdoom Let's say you went for a standard 3gate with Zealots/Stalkers and then threw in Phoenix. Now you get 1robo for Observers (+Immortals if you can actually afford it). Throw in Fleet Beacon and Mothership instead of Colossi.
There, your Observer reveals the enemy Observer, making it possible for your Phoenix to destroy it. You now have a completely invisible army (apart from the beefy Mothership).
@fudgemanofdoom Right... Easy to see just how stupid you are, have fun with your rambling, i'm not going to waste my time trying to make you understand how dumb you are. I can't possibly make my point any more simple for you.
@fudgemanofdoom Well, I wasn't going to be rude about how stupid you are... But here goes. Did you really just ask what is useless about you commenting on how useless something is? Actually think about it.
The date matters because the game was still in testing and development in 2007, nowhere near the release in mid 2010. A LOT of things have changed in this game over the last 3 years.
@fudgemanofdoom This was posted in 2007... Look at the date before posting totally useless comments.
( Though I agree, you really need to be in a very specific situation for the giant piece of metal to actually help you out in the released version of SC2 )
All of the mother ships attacks except for its own lasers and crap were discontinued, they changed it now it only has mass recall and vortex which is like the black hole, but isn't really the units come back after.
@mrkxtreme Its much slower, more expensive and you can't have more than 1 at a time. Thats the big deal. Btw its DPS still sucks, it attacks slowly and can't even one hit a marine. I wonder if having your structures cloaked ever helped someone win a game too actually.
@xxXRaymoondoXxx Hmmmm the protoss have always had the ability to control time and disagree with me or not but the recall ability is a worm hole that captures a small peice of time then moves it to the arbiter... there for even in sc 1 they could controll time... thats also why in the campaign in brood war and the original the protoss could place n recall units/structures...
Guys remember the days we watched SC2 videos and it was awesome...and they released it...and its a shit :( The graphic fails its not the same with the old gameplay -_- the old one was better.
I love the protoss. I may suck at starcraft but i still love the protoss.
In original starcraft I would almost always play protoss since I favored them. I only learned how to somewhat use the terran due to the dark archon mind control ability effectively allowing me to have 2 armies if I stole an SUV unit. Protoss have and always will kick butt :P
Eh i do not think there is any chance of me being a pro let alone playing terran :P I tried the race and I did not like it. I liked it a bit in the original starcraft but like in the first game protoss is still my favorite. And since I cannot mind control a terran building unit to create 2 armies I have little need to learn terran.
All the interesting "new" features and units have been taken out of Starcraft 2. It's basically SC1 with a few extra units per race. Still a decent game though, it's a shame that all this has been removed.
Man, it sucks that it doesn't do this anymore, or the death beam that kills everything under it. Though I guess if it did all that, you might be able to kill an entire base with just the mothership.
i really like the mothership. But WHY THEy REMOVE it's ability??? Suck the BLIZZARD! always want to do thing as balance as always. But in the real world does it be like that.. balance as always... Shit
@EggDestroyer ya the mothership is a waste of money now its not worth it it gets shot down in about 5 seconds then wat ur troops are revealed and ur done
@EggDestroyer how is protoss "so well-known" to be OP in SC1? broodwar has been balanced for years, which is WHY it was so popular.. FlaSh doesn't seem to have trouble with protoss.
protoss = op?

It should just be replaced by the Arbiter or Blizzard should give it a major buff. Cause as it is, it isn't worth the cash to get it. Id rather get a carrier, which can kill a mothership 1v1.

@inarush123456789 Terran aren't overpowered, you're just bad. Mass banelings will annihilate almost any Terran ground unit, save for tanks and thors which are immensely gas heavy. A few colossi/immortals with zealots as a meat shield will also do a serious number on an marine/marauder blob. Want to be fancy and use more micro? Sentries with hallucinations and force fields, high templar with psionic storm, infestors with fungal growth and so forth will do really well.

@fudgemanofdoom Let's say you went for a standard 3gate with Zealots/Stalkers and then threw in Phoenix. Now you get 1robo for Observers (+Immortals if you can actually afford it). Throw in Fleet Beacon and Mothership instead of Colossi.
There, your Observer reveals the enemy Observer, making it possible for your Phoenix to destroy it. You now have a completely invisible army (apart from the beefy Mothership).
See my point?

@fudgemanofdoom Tried Mothership in PvP, coupled with a few Phoenixes?
No? That explains why you think it's useless.
It's a great way to make the most boring MU entertaining again.
It is situational in PvZ, and near-useless in PvT, though.

@fudgemanofdoom Right... Easy to see just how stupid you are, have fun with your rambling, i'm not going to waste my time trying to make you understand how dumb you are. I can't possibly make my point any more simple for you.

@fudgemanofdoom Well, I wasn't going to be rude about how stupid you are... But here goes. Did you really just ask what is useless about you commenting on how useless something is? Actually think about it.
The date matters because the game was still in testing and development in 2007, nowhere near the release in mid 2010. A LOT of things have changed in this game over the last 3 years.

@fudgemanofdoom This was posted in 2007... Look at the date before posting totally useless comments.

All of the mother ships attacks except for its own lasers and crap were discontinued, they changed it now it only has mass recall and vortex which is like the black hole, but isn't really the units come back after.

The Mothership is way better than Arbiter for SC1.Much more hitpoints , better attack , mass recall has a larger area and it cloaks even structures
mrkxtreme 1 year ago
@mrkxtreme but think about it.. you could have a shit ton of arbs in starcraft 1, also they were cheaper than motherships
Splixter512 1 year ago
@mrkxtreme Its much slower, more expensive and you can't have more than 1 at a time. Thats the big deal. Btw its DPS still sucks, it attacks slowly and can't even one hit a marine. I wonder if having your structures cloaked ever helped someone win a game too actually.
DanyF02 1 year ago
@xxXRaymoondoXxx Hmmmm the protoss have always had the ability to control time and disagree with me or not but the recall ability is a worm hole that captures a small peice of time then moves it to the arbiter... there for even in sc 1 they could controll time... thats also why in the campaign in brood war and the original the protoss could place n recall units/structures...

I love the protoss. I may suck at starcraft but i still love the protoss.
In original starcraft I would almost always play protoss since I favored them. I only learned how to somewhat use the terran due to the dark archon mind control ability effectively allowing me to have 2 armies if I stole an SUV unit. Protoss have and always will kick butt :P

Eh i do not think there is any chance of me being a pro let alone playing terran :P I tried the race and I did not like it. I liked it a bit in the original starcraft but like in the first game protoss is still my favorite. And since I cannot mind control a terran building unit to create 2 armies I have little need to learn terran.

All the interesting "new" features and units have been taken out of Starcraft 2. It's basically SC1 with a few extra units per race. Still a decent game though, it's a shame that all this has been removed.

Man, it sucks that it doesn't do this anymore, or the death beam that kills everything under it. Though I guess if it did all that, you might be able to kill an entire base with just the mothership.

Sure, the Protoss are so well-known to be overpowered in Starcraft 1.
Anyway, this ability has been removed. Now, the Mothership is basically a big arbiter (cloak, recall, vortex - which is like stasis trap).
