It was very different from this version. The zerg which were playable in it I think were called 'Nightmare invaders". Notice those red guardians in front of overlords. Look at more screen shots!!
Look the units looked soo different back then!!!! I can only recognize a drone, mutalisk, and maybe a guardian and overlord. Look at list of old Zerg units. Notice that you cannot recognize most of them!! I only recognize larva first one Drone below it Overlord, which looks like a guardian. I recognize mutalisk and the scourge above. I like how the scourge looked like. Notice its high level of detail! I like that it had like a circular mouth full of claws. Look at other early picture of StarCraft.
This is a nice zerg mining colony!! I liked the idea of asteroids floating and you collecting resources from them! No wonder early resource gatherers could fly in beta! Too bad this feature was removed. But in the introductory film to StarCraft it showed a terran ship gathering minerals off some asteroids! That is actually what was in the beta.
But why was this awesome feature removed from Starcraft??? Because it would imbalance or ruin game?? If gatherers could fly it would make a new definition to "peon rushing".
Look at a cool ancient battle between Nightmarish invaders and few protoss interceptors Awesome battle!!!
It show's overlords shooting at the enemy!!!! Also with a game engine changes the game started to be more balanced. Like, Zerg overlords no longer could attack!! That is a good thing!!! Look how MUCH imbalance that would cause!!!!!
Even though 4 damage is VERY weak, it still was too much. Talking about a overlord rush on defenseless protoss I still like the version, even though it was very buggy I mean drones could fly!!
They could fly in outer space and get minerals!! That was soo good!! Also I like the way carriers looked like!!! And guardians!!! But as you can see, the graphics was messed up I wish I played this version!!! This is unreleased version has still many changes The terran is still awkward looking.
The game interface is no longer warcraft2 2 ish. BUT its different from normal SC!!! I mean there were MK1 MK2 and soo on.. From now on the Blizzard focused more on the hardest thing, the game balancing In this version dropships could bomb and archons mind control.
The dragoon was "templar". This version was the best Starcraft version, as i think. I mean goliaths could use machine gun and flame-thrower and missiles on ground target!!! I also liked that transports landed to pick up units. Units no longer just disappeared and appeared when coming in and out of transport.
Also there was a secret unit which awfully looks like a flying resource craft. Picture here Transports are much bigger and awesome looking. But they are as big as carriers!!! Take a look here Also there was a valkyer type craft I don't know its purpose. Also terrans could pick up minerals from dead enemy units "like in the Starcraft intro". Terrans have a un identified unit which could be a flying resource gatherer. That looks soo cool!! A homing mine!!!
Note that wraiths were called "phoenix" and that arbiter doesn't cloak units!!! Notice they shoot missiles at templars the name of dragoons in sc beta I wished that goliaths were like in beta, even with the upgrade. Too bad I think that giving it 70 health points would balance things out. Look at cool assault at terran base. Look and see. Again the scouts are launching a unit which looks like a probe!!!
It does!!! I wish I knew more about it. Is it a special ability? Like yamato cannon which didn't survive into the version we currently have??
Also I would buy this beta version of StarCraft, look at new awesome tank!! Notice that dragoons are shooting a strange laser particles while goliaths are using a laser. Accessed Blizzard Entertainment.
StarCraft Legacy. StarCraft II Update. Beta selection questions for clarification Battle. StarCraft Zine. Starcraft 2 Beta: Invite a friend. StarCraft Source. Patch Notes - Beta Patch 9. In order to prepare for the final phase of beta testing, we plan to extend the current phase in all regions until Monday, June 7. After this date, the beta test will be unavailable for several weeks while we make some hardware and software configuration changes for the final phase of the beta test and the release of the game.
System Requirements explained in detail. Additionally, there will be a large capacity for players on beta. We want to get as many people who have promised keys in as early as we can.
Nonetheless, we will also have a large percentage in based on computer specs, to adequately test the game on several hardware types as well. I would wait until beta starts to see if you've gotten a key in the first wave if you are only buying a computer for beta. Though don't forget - betas lead to game launches : Karune. Blue Please Answer not beta date related. Those dates will not be considered when the names are taken out of the pool of people that opted in.
So someone opting in today will have the same chance of getting into the beta. Mac, to be found in the closed beta as well? The beta is probably taking so long because. More info will revealed in time : Karune. This will be the most limited beta in recent memory, and because of of how new the back end is, we expect it to be the most unstable as well. Blizz definitely won't give keys to those already in beta to "give to friends".
It'll be very limited. The blizzcon keys along with THIS year's blizzcon will be the first to get them, then fansites and a few more waves of random testers. By the end like last 2 weeks I imagine they might let a lot of people in just to test the servers and then close it abruptly if they are pleased with the results. They are poised not to ruin anything and I commend them for that, even if all their other decisions have been pretty disappointing lately..
Quote from spank. I am going to guess that beta lasts months. Believe though that they let in a large number of people. I could understand the fear of letting too many people see the content, but I think this beta is short for just that reason. I'm sure you can test with 40k a couple of servers, but it's really not going to show you what happens when 3M people are on. The fact that the game content is small also would lend that non-hardcore D3 fans ie.
Some won't like it and others will be done after playing for two or three hours. Therefore you either need the beta to be extremely short or invite a massive amount of people into the beta.
Blizzard will go with that latter in my opinion. Additionally, Blizzard has always had an open period for beta and I think they do that this time as well. From a testing perspective, how can automated tests not cover server load etc in an acceptable fashion?
