Starcraft 2 heroes

I havent done much reading about the game just know theres a beta on its way and seen a couple of trailers and gameplay videos but one protoss cutscene video arrised the question does the game gona have heroes like warcraft 3 cuz that would be cool!

Of course it will.

Edit:

• Jim Raynor
• Tychus Findlay
• Matt Horner
• Zeratul

yea warcraft 3 was so cool :) if they have heroes like wc3 it will be amazing.

Thanks I am so buying this game , andactually I have been playing the starcraft campaign recently.

no it won't have heroes.

slight possibility of heroes in campaign (like original starcraft)but they will definately not be part of skirmish and online modes. That said, blizz maycode heroes and make them availableforcustom maps as dota style maps are so popular

No no no no no.

It will have single player heroes (stronger, faster or special pew pew stuff). However you can't use them in a multiplayer game (unless its a player made map)

Matt Horner looks awesome! And Jim Rayner has changed a lot... like a lot!

Some SC2 portraits, there are 4 new heroes or characters also in row three after the hellion( the guy with the googles), the lady is ariel hanson followed by matt horner, swann and gabriel tosh.

Blizzard reps have already stated that there will be no rpg element heros in StarCraft 2. Thank goodness.

I hope not, heros ruined wc3 imo. Made the game entirely base around what heros/abilities were used and not actually strat/micro like SC had.Dr_Brocoli

You didn't get the "there are no heroes" part.

They will be available for use in the editor, just not in the "normal" melees.

And no doubt, the Starcraft 2 editor will create some awesome mods, I mean, making a TPS from an RTS engine? hell yeah :D.

Maybe because I said nothing about SC? I somehow see only WC 3 in my post and WC3 mods. I know SC will not have heroes, why would it? it's not that type of RTS, actually it's a pure RTS not an RPG/RTS hybrid.

I mean that if the heroes system "ruined" WC3, there's no telling it will not do the same to SC2. I thought that you describing what the hero system did to WC3 implied hoping that it wouldn't do the same to SC2.

A hero system similar to WC3 will be available, just not used in the official melees.

And heck, if the editor works properly it will be even more friggin awesome than how awesome it already is.

Especially if it turns out you can make FPSs too. I'd love to make a SC-styled Unreal Tournament and post it on Epic's forums with a "In your face, Cliffy" signature :D

No no no no no.

This. Heroes ruined my interest for the WC III mp. DoW did a lot better job with the heroesimplemantation. As long as I known, heroes will not be available in the Starcraft II multiplayer, which is cool.
