Description
Starcraft 2: Terran Fusion CoreModeled & Textured by Phill Gonzales
I dislike the Fusion Core. At the break-neck speed we were making the Terran structures, this one was the most rushed and unplanned. The shapes were too simple and repetitive, but the intention was to have the more advanced Terran structures feature more circular shapes. The front and back pistons were tweaked to oval shapes to make them more interesting after i finished the model, which makes me despise the design more. On the bright side Battlecruisers don't get produced very often, so this building is a rare site.

hah, rare sight? You're kidding right? Battlecruiser rush is a favorite tactic.
Kinda curious though, how big is this thing supposed to be? Were there any 'lore' size dimensions? We've been given alot of sizes for all of the units, but not that I can find for any of the buildings other than the command centers for each race.

this building seemed too plain to me. it's more like a supply depot or bunker which look better plain because of their numbers, not a key structure.

I expected the Fusion Core to look a little more like the Science Facility or a Terran version of the Nuclear Power Plant. Maybe when you get the chance to update some of the other Terran buildings we'll see some really great stuff come about.
Also: Day[9] loves the Fusion Core dance, and so do many an SC2 player.

Hahah, good on Day 9! I'm pretty positive I'll never get a chance to improve this building, but who knows!?

yea, i kinda found this structure plain myself. But oh well, I'm not a Terran player, so that works out.

Hahaha... same here. In the off chance an opponent actually gets to Battlecruiser tech i still cringe when I see it.

Me too. I'm like kill him now or he'll definitely kill me later. Thank goodness BC's take forever to build.

While you can't please everybody, including yourself, this building has its fans. I absolutely love it. It evokes 'fusion core' more than, say, the Armory evokes 'armory.' It manages to be a sharp departure from the rest of the terran aesthetics while still feeling very terran.
Hopefully you'll get to revisit this someday and either unmake it or remake it to your rather exacting artistic standards and be happy with it, but until then I'll continue to enjoy it

Glad your liked it! And one day perhaps we'll get to do a second pass... one day...

I just love to see the fusion core working. the building itself might not be the best but the animation is gorgeous!

I think my favorite is the death animation, Steve Provost had fun with the liquid effects and whatnot when he murdered this one...

Bet you have fun killing it when you see it in multiplayer

It certainly has the least character out of all the Terran buildings. Also no door. But hey, if it's just a ring of reactors, kinda makes sense.
lol at the central bunker. Perhaps you could write that off as radiation shielding for the personnel.

My only hope for this building is that one day I'm told to unmake it.

what about to make it as an addon for airport only ? would sound less weird that way, no ?

As cool as that sounds it goes against our intention to have only 2 types of add-ons for multiplayer.
