Guest Tie Guy Posted August 3, 2001 Posted August 3, 2001 Oh, the lure for the different civs for me are their strengths and weaknesses.
JediMasterEd Posted August 3, 2001 Author Posted August 3, 2001 AOK players will have a better time adapting to the characture change. every civ. has the same units except for two.(ex. Vikings=Beserker+Longboat, Koreans=War Wagon+Turtle Ship) It would be pretty cool to see different units battling against each other other than the same units battling eachother(ex.Long Swordsmen vs. Long Swordsmen, Knight vs. knight, etc.) it gets annoying after awhile:swear:
Guest Tie Guy Posted August 3, 2001 Posted August 3, 2001 I think i see what you mean. You're saying that instead of swordsmen v swordmen you can see rebel trooper vs stormtrooper, right? Yes, i'm glad that they decided to go for different units for different civs. It just wouldn't be Star Wars if all the civs looked alike. I am glad, however, that all the civs match in terms of use, that way you can play all the civs, not jus the ones with your favorite unit.
JediMasterEd Posted August 4, 2001 Author Posted August 4, 2001 right. i'm so glad that they changed it all. maybe microsoft will get some pointers with this game with different types of units other than just one/two different units per civ.
Darth_Rommel Posted August 4, 2001 Posted August 4, 2001 Yeah, except the units are unique due to their art and tech tree's. The imps have an atat and the alliance has a juggernaught- same basic unit, till u upgrade
Guest Tie Guy Posted August 4, 2001 Posted August 4, 2001 Yeah, but i wish the alliance had something else, the juggernaught looks kinda stupid to me.
Guest Tie Guy Posted August 4, 2001 Posted August 4, 2001 I wonder what the "power weapons" are for the other civs. I think it is a huge boomer shooting dino for the gungans, but what else?
Paragon_Leon Posted August 4, 2001 Posted August 4, 2001 The Gungans used big catapult-boomers in TPM, so those will probably be ported over to the game. There's a screenshot in PC Gamer (realy tiny) that shows a Trade Federation droideka-type unit that i think is their blaster cannon, the Empire of course has the blaster-cannon that they set up while the Falcon escaped from Hoth, and Naboo will have something thought up by the designers. Although there might be some kind of cannon in the PC game of TPM. Wookies is the same.
Guest Tie Guy Posted August 4, 2001 Posted August 4, 2001 Thanks, but i meant what would their largest mech be, not the trebuchet type weapon. Any thoughts on that.
Paragon_Leon Posted August 4, 2001 Posted August 4, 2001 The Fambaa looks their greatest unit by far. Then there's that butt-ugly whale you were talking about that probably is their version of a transport. other than that, i have seen some infantry units, but they were normal size.
Guest Tie Guy Posted August 5, 2001 Posted August 5, 2001 What i wqas saying is that i one screen with the gungans you can see a giant dino with a gun thing on his back, not a shield. you should check it out. You can also see the juggernaught, and the ATAT, but what are the equivilants of those in the other civs? Do you have any idea?
darthfergie Posted August 5, 2001 Posted August 5, 2001 For the Trade Fed. it is those... Oh Crap I forgot thier name...MTTs or something like it...Look at the screenshots on this site it is the one where they are facing the Naboo. Also for the Naboo it is probably those speeder on the same pictue. ( take this link to see the picture- http://www.galacticbattles.com/multimedia/screenshots/8.jpg )
Guest Tie Guy Posted August 5, 2001 Posted August 5, 2001 a small speeder wouldn't be the top mech, and neither would a transport i don't think. Or at least, i wouldn't want a transport as my top mech, that would be a major turnoff for me.
darthfergie Posted August 5, 2001 Posted August 5, 2001 It most likely is because the Rebel Juaggernat is a transport and so is the At-At. The speeder well I have no clue. That was just a guess.
darthfergie Posted August 5, 2001 Posted August 5, 2001 I really can't tell. They don't have enough screenshots yet to say.
Guest Tie Guy Posted August 5, 2001 Posted August 5, 2001 Yes, we have yet to see the wookies', but hopefully it will be a powerful weapon that can attack, not just a transport like the TF.
darthfergie Posted August 5, 2001 Posted August 5, 2001 Well everbodys equivalent of the At-At is most likely going to be a transport of some type sorry, but if they all have to be similar...
Paragon_Leon Posted August 5, 2001 Posted August 5, 2001 Wookies anyone ? Has somebody thought about Ugnaughts ? I kinda liked them in ESB. They seemed pretty comical but never really were explored fully.
Guest Tie Guy Posted August 5, 2001 Posted August 5, 2001 There just workers, and really couldn't fight if they wanted too. That is why they are such common slaves.
