Starcraft 2 Cinematic 16 - Card to Play

[mortman200]

He just beaned a fucking Hydralisk!

[GRRStarcraft]

0:54 Falcon!!

0:55 PAWNCH!!

[BarlytheDwarf]

So this is what happens on the battlefield.

[acr2121]

ima sub you, just because your videos are so high quality, something i dearly appreciate.

[Ieatairparticles]

raynoer has so many fuckin punchlines in this game he needs a set of sunglasses.

[ButterKnife90]

Just how sharp are those thingies the Hydra's fire?

[bkismlg]

@ButterKnife90 Very sharp!

[dystopianlover]

It almost felt like Starcraft until 0:54. Then a black man killed a Hydralisk by punching it in the maw and white-knight Raynor saved the day.

[bowei7758258]

I thought they said "the atmosphere can burn a man alive".... then HOW THE FK CAN THEY JUST UNMASK THEIR HELMETS LIKE THAT?!

[StarSpawn06]

@bowei7758258

Warfield was probably referring to the firestorms.

[starhawks1]

too bad they can't be space marines from warhammer 40k..you know, real ones...because then they could take care of the zerg in a day or two

[StarSpawn06]

@starhawks1

in the pre-release version of SC1, Terran soldiers were called "Marauders", after the ORIGINAL "space marines", from Starship Troopers ( 1959 ).

This name reappears in SC2 for the Terran heavy infantry anti-armour unit.

[starhawks1]

@StarSpawn06 I was trying to bring to light the fact that starcraft ripped off warhammer 40k. You over-evaluated my comment

[StarSpawn06]

@starhawks1

And I was trying to bring to light the fact that SC DID NOT "rip off" WH40K.

what do you mean by "over-evaluated" ?

[starhawks1]

@StarSpawn06 you brought up irrelevant information is what I meant by over-evaluated...and yes, starcraft blatantly ripped off warhammer

[StarSpawn06]

@starhawks1

You ignored my proof, but have given none for yourself.

What part of SC links it more closely to WH40K, than, say, Starship Troopers or Aliens, which SC clearly references ?

[starhawks1]

@StarSpawn06 zerg are a carbon copy of tyranids during the time when starcraft came out (and no, the bugs from starship troopers are nothing like tyranids) and the space marines from starcraft are just a watered down, more cliche version of space marines from warhammer...and theres definitely eldar influence in the protoss

[StarSpawn06]

@starhawks1

You need to show me specific concepts in SC which clearly reference WH40K and nothing else.

How clear is clear ? like this:

In 40K: ... navigators, lasguns, etc from the Dune novels; symbol and function of Chaos from Moorcock's Multiverse.

In SC: ... marauders, spore cannons etc from Starship Troopers; some quotes and scenes lifted from Aliens.

I see no such significant link between SC and 40K.

Rather, there are many clear differences. I'll list them if you want.

[starhawks1]

@StarSpawn06 you are truly going to sit there and deny that starcraft didn't get any inspiration from 40k? really? I'm not asking you to admit that they outright copied games workshop, but if you seriously try to deny that blizzard didn't take any ideas from 40k you have lost any and all credibility

[StarSpawn06]

@starhawks1

Strawman. I never denied that SC took some inspiration from 40K. All we have are the developers' own story. If they say so, it is so.

Besides, Blizzard took inspiration from all over sci-fi. Same can be said of GW.

What I am disproving is your earlier stand that SC is a just a bad imitation of 40K, which you based on mere rough impression.

And now that you've modified your stand, my work is done ( ... or do you still need that list of diffs ? )

Go enjoy the game, bro. GLHF :)

[Izula]

@StarSpawn06

Terran = Imperium (Power armored super-soldiers)

Zerg = Tyranids (Biotic savage aliens that don't use any particular technology that isn't fully biotic. Consumes worlds, is controlled by one supreme "Hive Mind" Claws, Spines, Acid)

Protoss = Eldar (Super-tech aliens with psychic mind powers, energy shields, cloaking capabilities)

Same can go for Halo, being,

Terran = Imperium = UNSC

Zerg = Tyranids = Flood

Protoss = Eldar = Covenant

[StarSpawn06]

@Izula

they overlap, but they are not identical.

The Imperium & UNSC do not have nuke missiles that fly *from one world to another*. ( afaik )

The nids have little emotion or personality. The Flood ( as seen in the games ) cannot travel through space by their own power.

the Eldar are not photosynthetic. The Covenant's goal and background is completely different from that of the Eldar or Protoss.

etc etc

[Izula]

@StarSpawn06 The UNSCg ranges (I think a NOVA class destroyed half a Covenant Fleet, but that wasn't fired, just set off)

Otherwise, they're just similar concepts, if they were the exact same, it'd be copyright infringement.

[kingtigertank42]

@starhawks1 warhammer and sc both just have stuff from the movies aliens , predator, and star wars.

[Izula]

@kingtigertank42 Don't forget Starship Troopers. Arachnids = Zerg/Tyranids, SST also invented the word and concept of "Power Armour"

[MordaK87]

seriosly jim raynor 1:15 with some marines in the background would be more badass!!!!!!

[mandolinka29]

Hydra corners you with no weapon in hand, and 1 hand, punch it in the face

Now thats a real man

[ItsNoelDur]

That black guy got a nice stache.

[TheCharlesis]

i dont get it there armour looks heavy has fuk but still the bullets go throu?

[djichuan]

Aren't Gauss rifles using spikes without cartridge-cases? These look like 5,56 mm rounds :D

[Harshalcv11]

You magnificent Son of a Bitch!

[Hatchatfatbat]

Falcon punch!

[frostblade62]

FYI the HEV mark 4 round has the power to eliminate the toughest zerg opponent including the dreaded ultralisk. the name stands for High Explosive Velocity round. the round weighs 4.21 pounds. it has the ability to pass through multiple targets and is very accurate. it was commonly used by the arclite mark 2, before it was replaced by the mark 3 (starcraft) which was replaced by the Crucio tank (starcraft 2).

yes, I have little if any life :(

[157GOLIATH]

@frostblade62 Keep up the passion! ;)

[iloveplayingpr]

@frostblade62

OMG YOUR A BIG FAN THAN ME XD!

[frostblade62]

@iloveplayingpr thanks, i guess..... i can't tell if that is a good thing or a bad thing.

[xXmilkywayXx]

@frostblade62

HEV mark 4 is also Gordon Freemans suit lol.

[starhawks1]

@frostblade62 yeah but it's pretty much an airsoft pellet compared to a good bolt round...you know, the one used by the real space marines?

[frostblade62]

@starhawks1 actually it's the largest round they use, unless you mean of another game such as dawn of war.

[starhawks1]

@frostblade62 yeah I was actually just trying to troll, and being an avid warhammer 40k fan I felt that trying to demonstrate to you the superiority of imperial space marines over those from starcraft would make you angry, but alas it didn't work

[frostblade62]

@starhawks1 ah. well anyways, i thank you for being polite good sir.

[SteelFyire]

@starhawks1 The big difference between 40k marines and starcraft marines is that starcraft marines are foot soldiers, more akin to the imperial guard than the Adeptus Astartes. Of course, since everything in 40k is so insanely powerful, they'd still annihilate starcraft, mass effect, star wars, star trek, pretty much any other sci fi series I've watched short of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann (which, incidentally, the only work of fiction I've heard of that's more over the top than 40k)

[Hawk2103]

love heroic stuff like this :D

[ajhinfairbanks]

Gauss rifles don't have shells...

[dethonator0000]

out of all of the cinematics, this is its most definitely my favorite (yes i have the game) Just so epic. Epic sniper bullets. So heavy they break the ground...plus an epic banshee attack = pure epicness

[PheoniXfirewing]

hydralisk: TERRAN IS FREAKIN OP WHY WONT THEY DIE WHEN I SHOOT THEM WITH MY SPINES???

Marine: thats cuz bullets beat spines(bam bam bam)

[Wingman7033]

Where can I get a banshee like those????

[FormlessTrout]

i was able 2 record 1 of the cutscenes in SC2 (the first one with Tycus) and it was fine, and then every other time i try doing the other 1s its always sped up real fast, ne suggestions?

[bloodring12]

man they need that kind of a sniper caliber to kill one

[ABhaim]

how come marines never miss nor out of ammo in gameplays?

[andromidius]

@ABhaim Game balance :P

[MegaPaladin150]

1:14 wow

[bear4512]

you magnicifent son of a bitch!

[Metaphysicist]

I think it's be come a rule that every military Sci-Fi game must have a badass old black dude.

[midmichiganrr24gp9]

Terran best species in Starcraft :P

[tldpaladin]

In a scale of pure awesome badassery, ranking from 1 to 10, this cinematic hits 20 :D

Kickass- all 3 of them!

[survas19]

@ITSREIGNING 1. its in the script. would make the game to short and boreing

2. there mostly red necks and brainwashed terran citizans who for the most part hate the faction they fight for.

3. they dont have enough of the generals in the military

[ITSREIGNING]

He can kill a Hydralisk with a punch. So why does the Terran keep losing?

[kisame2227]

best cutscene in the hole game

[wesker723]

the HEV mark 4 zerg elimination canister is prepped for use in all weather and climates, and it's armor piercing capabilities can bring down an ultralisk.

(half-life fans should enjoy that)

[JethrusBah]

FUCKIN AMAZIN!

[elc2034]

i thought 20 mm is big .. whats that a .. anti tank cannon sniper rifle . ?!

[Licronthoup]

@elc2034 well considering their machine guns are using fucking massive caliburs already 0:18 you would think the snipers have bigger bullets

[Randomhero129]

General Warfield is like "Yo, Hydralisk, EAT FUCKING POWER FIST MOTHERFUCKER."

[wharfreek]

@Randomhero129 warfield p-p-paaawnch!!!!

[Flashbang428]

i can't believe its rated t !!!

[everseekingeyes]

God, I love the zerg! The Queen of Blades is the most badass Blizz character since Sylvanas Windrunner!

[pocketokun]

@everseekingeyes agreed but Sylvanas was created long after Kerrigan

[cyclonzgirl]

0:16--i want that gun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[NicholasGeschke]

Big damn heroes.

[VSTLeozt]

The most epic cinematic un the game!!!

[UTubeLightBulb]

add some transformers music and it'll b real epic.

[teoteous]

Badass general. Both of them.

[killerbeedriver]

@teoteous Nerfing the generals :[ Hope it doesn't happen.

[kaseke75]
