Maybe its a Vespene Crystal. So you can actually harvest gas like you would harvest minerals.

HEY, I FINALLY FIGURED IT OUT!!! it came to me in a dream!!!

the so-called "new-resource" is not a new resource - it is the same old minerals, with a new look that varies with the tileset of the map!

BOOYAH!

=)

Tsss.... normal blue looking mienrals are shown later in the same sequence; in the terran base that the temests are assulting... and the general titleset dont look different over there than early in the secuence around the golden mienrals either.

i hope & believe that the golden touch means those minerals yield more for each round of harvesting... i agree though, that it'd be abad diea to incldue any kind of "ever lasting" minerals.

#22 that was my first thought, but if you watch the whole movie you can see that the other minerals are regular colours

Hmm , i think that those gold crystals are only a piece of environment. It will be like in C&C - one mineral but many types , is sux a lot i think. We would like to see many changes , but blizzard shouldn't change things witch are perfect at the moment. Time will show what will happen next ;)

I agree with #27. Two types of mineral would be too C&C, could still be fun fighting over them though.

guys ..... Even with different "calibers" of the same resocurse - like in cnc - i dont think it'd end up remotely similar.... what truely defines the eco part of the game is HOW the resocurses are gathered, with WILL stay VERY similar to the sc/bw way, witch is VERY diffrent from lameass cnc style...

I belive blizzard have stated that they will try to make some improvements in the resource managment sc/bw --> sc2...

as far a improvements go, i think different effiency calibers in mineral fields is a very good one. (im guessing its also a less controvesial "improvment" than making it less micro intensive, like allowing rally to mienrals with iperasonaly am also for but this is the wrong thread to be flaming me for that in)

I just read on SClegacy (todays first page news) that rallying to minerals will actually be possible. So i think that's enough improvements for economy :)

I'm a real fan of SC:BW and I would leave everything the same XD but i know it's not going to be that way and it cannot be. And i know there will be some good things about every change.I have to wait till the game is finished and i really really really hope that Blizzard makes everything perfect :)

cannot be? of course it can be the same. don't make starcraft 2. promote starcraft. done.
rallying to minerals will deffinately make the macro aspect of broodwar significantly easier. i suppose it could be interesting since it could lead to games having huger economies but they did say the game would be designed for 15 minute matches, or something, didn't they? but they might give you plenty to micro with but then again that's not very much like bw anymore. you people who say wc3 is crap are just ninies. it's not a bad game at all imo, but still different and not what i prefer to play. the same goes for any changes to bw.

#25 you are right, but that doesnt mean that blizzard can't come up with more variety lookwise of the same crystal resource.

it's clearley just a green mineral some artzie person tought it would look better with the green gras, it's still a mineral and lets hope that "golden" minerals lets you turbo charge your economy, but niceley spottet.
