Pardon the pun :p These 10 (!) new screenshots were found on a Chinese StarCraft 2 site, they show updated graphics for both the Psi Storm and the Nuke, as well as the overall desaturation of the game. Unfortunately they are not available in high-res, but look awesome nonetheless. Blizzard will hopefully add them to the official site soon.

What do you think, like the new graphics?



Source: sgamer.com - thanks Spartan for finding them.

I like the look. I think the guys in charge of art have been busy (and have gotten away from the look of the Warcraft Universe...which is very good considering this is SC2!).
Will BlizzCon have a new build? I heard the last few shows had the same build.

great screens, specially the new PSI, BUT the are overdoing it with the Fading in color-player-paletes! :shock:

look the space platoform battle, Prot vs Ter, you cant see the terran units cause they use exact the same color palets as the background-terain!

shadows may be realistic But the are making the "spoting" lot more deficult cause if you have 20 units its like you have 40 with their shadows!

but the worst is that units paletes are almost the same as the background, and you can tell whats a unit or what is a background element! :(

prottos That much faded also not so good! :oops:

ok not warcraft but hell if they keep on fading this will be a black-white film at the end!

Blizzard make other Background palets and other for the players-units and you are done. :cool:

I really like the contrast they've achieved between the organics and mechanics. Very cool looking!

I am SO EXCITED to see the visuals in action on the casts. The Psi Storm and Blink abilities look so slick and the Nuke is stunning!

Good job Blizzard Art department!

i agree, those shot don't look to 3Dish that i saw in the demo itself, so the chinese may not be as advanced as we all tought.
