stupid__git Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 sorry my computer froze the V-19 torrent fighter Prototypes of the Slayn and Korpil V-19 Torrent starfighter were first introduced at the Battle of Geonosis. Having proven their worth as an assault fighter with exceptional speed and maneuverability, the Republic quickly produced V-19s to add to the arsenal of the growing clone army. Because of the months of training it took for the Republic's clone trooper pilots to become proficient with the vessel, the fighter was not available in large numbers for some of the early engagements of the war, but they made a prominent showing during the Battle of Muunilinst. Initially designed as a short-range fighter, Republic technicians later added a Class-1 hyperdrive to equip the vessel for escort missions. The ship is unique in that it has two pairs of folding airfoils that give the ship added maneuverability and provides pilots with easy access to the ship's sliding canopy. The lower split airfoils coupled with enhanced repulsorlift engines make the ship an exceptional vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) fighter.

DieStarWarsGeek Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 wow i didn't know about the MAF, that's cool.. No I doubt that's the complete fliers list... there has to be a few more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadisticmonkey Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 Are the pictures of the Jedi Starfighter and the Droid Starfighter from Bespin, cos they colour of the sky sure ain't Kamino, Geonosis, or Rhen Var. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yaebginn Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 I think it is, but I dont think that means they will be allowed to play on those levels. I think it is just a background to showcase the vehicles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virtuosis Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 I Think you will be able to use the jedi starfighter and droid starfighter on Bespin. We already know its one of the "double maps" because it was in OPM and there was a super battle droid blasting away in the picture under Bespin. So why wouldn't you be able to use it, its wide open fighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reltes Posted August 25, 2004 Author Share Posted August 25, 2004 i think the factions will be all maps but i think the vehicles are map specific. but then again who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joesdomain Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 I just want to play out ech faction in it's perspective period. I don't want to fight a clone war on Endor or Hoth. Vice Versa! Keep the empire/rebel fighting on Tatoonie, Hoth, Endor, Bespin and Yavin 4 maybe Kashyyyk. The Republic/Separtist fighting on Geonosis, Naboo, Kamino, Tatoonie, Kashyyyk, and Rhen Var.

Dragnarr Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Yeah then recap from the gaming perspective, How dull would that be! There's 4 factions and you could only fight vs the same faction all the time, furthermore some maps would be pre-destined. Come on people, diversity is more important than some "Star Wars elitisting", sure if you want you can recreate all of the star wars battles like they were, but that shouldn't mean taking away the possibility to play any way you like. Even if Rebels and Battle Droids aren't from the same Era, I certainly would like to do that kind of battle just for the fun of it. I would hate to have a game where you would always do Rebels vs Imperials, Clones vs Seperatists, it would get boring pretty fast, especially if the map options would limit the selection aswell. Hello how can we have clan battles if we cant choose our faction freely??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtuosis Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 I'd prefer to stick to how the movies were. It would just kind of bother me if it wasn't somewhat historically correct. But if it were to be like that, how would you decide what team would be against eachother. Would it be a server option? Would there be some sort of voting system? Or what?

joesdomain Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 That would sound stupid! To play Republic vs. Empire! The Republic becomes the Empire! I stay with the films! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nortenyo Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Playing the AT-AT and AT-ST is so fun, and they are by far, my favorite vehicles in the game so far. Some maps are faction specific, and thus vehicle specific. Others are not, but are era specific. In other words, you can choose either a Republic vs Seperatist faction battle or a Rebel vs Empire faction battle all on the same map, but not at the same time.

Master Lion Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Just give me the X-wing or Snowspeeder, then I am happy I think its more fun to fight AGAINST an ATAT then fight WITH an ATAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragnarr Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Ermm try to be more open minded, and mountain forest, what balance? All the unit types are basically the same, only the vehicles are a bit different, and I bet every faction will have 1 fighter, 1 tank type atleast, so I cannot see why is that a balance problem. And yes we all know Republic will evolve to Empire, so what? Can't you guys just let loose for a while and not nag about every detail in the movies . And how am I supposed to play a clan game if I can't choose the faction??? And yes I would prefer voting system, nothing stops you from playing it the "right way", it's just that there needs to be an option to play otherwise aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Clone Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Draggnar, if every faction has 1 tank and stuff like that, because the REpublic evolves into the Empire they both have the same tank. It is from the Clone Wars game. It can look different though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragnarr Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Vehicles Wishlist ( Vehicles that aren't in the game or atleast not revealed ). Maybe for an expansion pack which hopefully expands the game to space aswell! - Trade Federation MTT ( Would work exactly like AT-AT ) - STAP ( those things where the droids flied around with, sort of like speeders only smaller ) - Droid Fighters in walker position - Trade Federation Battleship ( those big things in space, if space battles included ) - Self propelled Heavy Artillery TurboLaser ( those damn big things that shot down the droid space ships in Episode II ) - Republic Assault ship ( big things that the Clone troopers walk into at the end of Episode II ) - A-wing - B-wing - Rebel Blockade Runner ( if space battles included ) - Imperial Lambda-class shuttle - Imperial Star Destroyer ( if space battles included ) - Tie Interceptor - Dewback ( I know it's not a vehicle but that creature is basically a transport device for Imperials ) - Naboo Starfighter - That big creature carrying the Gungan Shield Generator And Turret - Millenium Falcon - Slave I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joesdomain Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 I think most of those starships and vehicles would of worked in the game except the larger ones like blockade runner, star destroyer, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragnarr Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 True, but they said that the maps on Battlefront were quite big, and even the ships would be stationary it would be fun to fight inside them, do boarding style battles etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw the last one two. You can see stardestroyers in both screenshots and trailers. It would be nice if they put something on the ground instead of only flying around , but I wouldn't count on that. Maybe they provide the orbital bombardement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
