- nightsky07, on 04/02/2008, -1/+58Got to love blizzard's April Fool's jokes.
- mrdeathgod, on 04/02/2008, -1/+46Dugg for "bizarrely well-developed horticultural skills".
- 3th0s, on 04/02/2008, -0/+37lol, udder chaos
- Renian, on 04/02/2008, -1/+30Guys, this might not actually be an April Fool's Joke.
While it might not be a unit you make normally, I do not doubt that the unit is in the game. Remember how the Secret Cow Level in Diablo II was also announced on April 1st to throw people off? And how they showed in-game screenshots, which people thought were just photoshopped? Well hell, this shows in-game movies, meaning they rendered the unit. Damn, the unit even has voice acting. - Jsoul87, on 04/02/2008, -0/+28Blizzard's sense of humor as a company always shines through their games, it's part of why they're so successful.
- SirTheGuy, on 04/02/2008, -0/+27I really hope they leave it in. That could make for some really funny custom maps!
- archivist, on 04/02/2008, -1/+25there is a cow level
- iChainsaw, on 04/02/2008, -2/+17B-b-but there is no cow level!
- swellchaser, on 04/02/2008, -3/+14Needs more cow bell
- mnemy, on 04/02/2008, -2/+13Can't wait to hear the dialog from *click* *click* *click* *click* *click* *click* *click*
- fwertz, on 04/02/2008, -0/+10Where are you going to find a wooden leg in SC?
- LOLgic, on 04/02/2008, -1/+11Can't wait to milk these suckers in StarEdit 2.
- archivist, on 04/02/2008, -0/+8jim raynor
- teamr, on 04/02/2008, -3/+11The milks gone bad!
- sjmulder, on 04/02/2008, -0/+7Yes you're right, I also think this will at least be available in the map editor, just like the Zerg, Hydra, and Marine in Warcraft 3.
- shoc, on 04/02/2008, -2/+9UDDER CHAOS!
- mrhaines, on 04/02/2008, -0/+7You know a company has too much money when....
- cerberus9090, on 04/02/2008, -0/+6Also the Pandaren race was introduced for WC3 as an April Fool's joke. The race was not playable, but they kept the avatars and they stayed in the game.
- blast_flame, on 04/02/2008, -0/+5Hopefully it's left in there as a cheat unit or something.
- Shadic, on 04/02/2008, -0/+5Cows with guns?
- SHiZZAM, on 04/02/2008, -0/+5The unit sounds sounded like the ones from War 3 to me.
- SpectreFire, on 04/02/2008, -2/+7Dear god, think of the fan fiction! *dies*
- Satanael, on 04/02/2008, -1/+5"NOT MILK"
- aceakm, on 04/02/2008, -1/+5Need a light?
- BugMeNot2, on 04/02/2008, -2/+5This unit is so overpowered.
NERF! - MrMacMan, on 04/02/2008, -0/+3Funny is not always a 'bonus'.
See: Portal for the most recent example. - kernel16, on 04/02/2008, -0/+2"Not milk" from picture, 10/10.
- hayashi, on 04/02/2008, -0/+2Ye of little faith.
- Naidel, on 04/02/2008, -0/+2http://www.dork.tv/view/More+cowbell+Blue+Oyster+C ...
- hellsing47, on 04/02/2008, -0/+2Its already on the front page, keep it there.
- ParaSwarm, on 04/02/2008, -0/+2Howabout no.
- morel42, on 04/02/2008, -0/+2Even though it's a joke, the level of awsome that this would have would be able to power our civilizations for a thousand years from 5 minutes of gameplay.
- Seeki, on 04/02/2008, -1/+3I wouldnt be surprised is they leave this in there for easter eggs, maybe a secret level or something. Much like the cow level in Diablo II or the secret level in Starcraft.
- happytedium, on 04/02/2008, -0/+2It's actually added as a Terran unit. =p
- deadbob, on 04/02/2008, -0/+2The fact that they made units and did in game stuff with them kicks ass. I hope they keep them in as a gag unit, kind of like how in WC3 there are Zerg and Marines on a specific map.
- inactive, on 04/02/2008, -0/+1Cow wa bunga
- stretch611, on 04/02/2008, -1/+2But according to the screen captions there is a cow level.
- chrgrose, on 04/02/2008, -3/+4I actually saw this online a few days ago but it wasn't fully functional. I didn't realize until now that it was part of their april fools plan. haha. I hope they put this unit in the game anyway just for the lulz. :P
- Renian, on 04/02/2008, -0/+1nps.
- below413, on 04/02/2008, -0/+1From the video on the site it looks like they actually created a model for it, so chances are it will be in the map editor or something. They did put a few starcraft units into warcraft3.
- inactive, on 04/02/2008, -0/+1...Idiot...
- hayashi, on 04/02/2008, -0/+1Or is it...
- ParaSwarm, on 04/02/2008, -0/+1Wow. You needed THAT much data to conclude your hypothesis that it was an April Fool's joke? Most people knew after reading the name of the new unit. Good job with your research of the obvious though.
- inactive, on 04/02/2008, -0/+1You're still an idiot
- auricomnet, on 04/02/2008, -0/+1LOL
- stretch611, on 04/02/2008, -0/+1The cow level shots from Diablo II that were leaked on April Fools day in 1999 ended up being a real level. I fully expect this to become a full level as well, and just as hidden.
Here is the Diablo 2 cow level: http://www.battle.net/diablo2exp/quests/cow.shtml - hhiroyuki, on 04/03/2008, -0/+1haha thanks, I was fooled alright. But I've noticed the unit is still there, does it mean its permanent?
- boester, on 04/17/2008, -0/+0Probably going to be a cheat code for SC2
- jcani, on 04/02/2008, -2/+2" overpowered racial combat abilities"
I see what they did there... WARSTOMP LOL OVERPOWERED QQ KTHX
anyway, digg me down because I used to play WoW - Jookly, on 04/02/2008, -1/+1replied to wrong comment, sorry, doesn't make sense in this context
