Sharpshooter Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 1. I agree that it is cheap and that the snipers shouldent just be able to stand next to an ammo box and snipe every one! 2. Please clarify if they sucked in BF1942 or not! 3. Pilots should get to carry guns 'cause they never know when they are going to be shot down! 4. They should make newbies earn some skill instead of giving them cool toys so they have to try to kick #ss instead of just being able to sit there and blow the crap out of everyone without even trying!

TK-8252 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Originally posted by yaebginn I think I know a little bit more than they od, thank you very much. Your theories about Star Wars do not override the official Star Wars website facts. Sorry... Originally posted by Master William In Jedi Outcast, Imperial Pilots had small blasters with them. I remember when you first see them. You're using Jedi Outcast as a reference? Oh god and I thought you weren't as stupid as some people around here. Raven Software knows SQUAT about Star Wars. Look what they think Stormtroopers look like. They are the ones who give Imperial Officers with no armor, three times the health of a heavily-armored Stormtroopers. They think that Stormtrooper Officers wear orange pauldrons. They think that Imperial Officers come in blue and yellow uniforms. Using Jedi Outcast as a reference only disproves your argument further. Originally posted by Master William And again, don't take the "Play the movies" thing too serious, or else we would play on the Death Star, not on some stupid ice planet called Rhen Var. "Playing the movies" is the entire point of the game. Hell yeah I'm going to take it as far as I can. If it's not going to be Star Wars realistic then I'll challenge every little inaccuracy. Originally posted by yaebginn yeah. IMPs always have blasters. Even pilots. small, crap ones, but still blasters. yeah, dont take it too seriously, that bugs me alot Where'd you get your information? According to the OFFICIAL, STAR WARS WEBSITE, Imperial TIE Pilots carry no firearm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alegis Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 It's a friggin game. If they wouldtakeit too serious there would be nomedpacks stuff at all in the first place I think most of us agree you're overreacting TK. Pilot is fine, except that i dont agree with it coming out of vehicles safely if itsasupport trooper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yaebginn Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 not theories, I have read all but a few of all star wars books. those few are the Jedi Academy, Jedi Quest, the three newest ones, and the Tales books. I've read about 80+ SW books. I know more than the databank, because the site screws up. I dont. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master William Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Notice also how the trailer didn't say "play the movies to 100%", it just said "play the movies". So you will, just not to 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-8252 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 The books are not true. The books, comics, Expanded Universe makes stuff up to support their story. The books are not going to pay so close attention to know "oops, we can't put that TIE Pilot into battle because according to the official site, they don't carry weapons." Saying that you're more correct than the official site is and what you say overrides it is just... arrogant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master William Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I really would like it if only the Pilots spawned near vehicles/ships. I also think they should carry a small blaster. As for the topic of snipers, they could make it like UT2003/2004 where you can see the beam from the sniper gun, so his location is revealed. I guess to satisfy gameplay some things need to be changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE BADGER: Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I really would like it if only the Pilots spawned near vehicles/ships. I also think they should carry a small blaster. I read that you can choose your spawn point, and that some spawn points are inside the vehicles, pretty cool huh? They have a blaster pistol. I'm not worried about snipers, I deal with snipers everyday in SOCOM 2 and I can take care of them without a problem. It will be balanced, no need to worry!

SITH_ShadowCat Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 You guys seem to worry about balance when some of the ideas you guys dish out may actually unbalance this game even more. Let me ask you some questions: Are you developing this game? Are you testing this game to see whats balaced or not? I'd say both would be no, so you can't possible know what's balanced and what's unbalanced. Ignorance my friend, ignorance. The devs know what they're doing and most game press sites would agree. The latest preview at Gamespot told of how the balance has really been increased since the last battlefront event which was 2 weeks behind. You can't possible tell me this is unbalanced or this is unfair cause then you'd be doing nothing but whining like a noob. With a game like this, people will find ways around one or another problem. TK you mentioned that Jedi Academy Siege is unbalanced? How so may I ask? Each team has a equal chance of winning. The problems you mentioned seem like they actually help balance things. The jedi in seige... What about them? They may have saber throw or grip, but this leaves a nice shot between the head with the sniper weapon, easy kill and point. These balance issues everyone is complaining about are nothing but peoples own fears about how their highly anticipated game will fail, nothing more. Don't worry, I say, if you have faith (not hype, hype is completely diffrent) then things will go your way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-8252 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Originally posted by SITH_ShadowCat TK you mentioned that Jedi Academy Siege is unbalanced? How so may I ask? I've already explained. Some classes have 200+ health or nearly all the weapons in the game. Originally posted by SITH_ShadowCat The jedi in seige... What about them? They may have saber throw or grip, but this leaves a nice shot between the head with the sniper weapon, easy kill and point. Or maybe they'll just reflect it with their lightsaber, as they usually do. Jedi always dominate. Just throw your lightsaber at a soldier pounding away with their repeating rifle and they're dead. I took a poll at my mod's forum and it was by far in favor of removing Jedi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuzzyfreaker Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 With the whole TIE pilot and blaster thing, the EU comes in. Some people believe the EU is Canon and some not. Anyway i'm not gonna turn this into a EU good or bad thread but here's what the EU says: In Darksaber, at least i think it's darksaber, a TIE fighter crashes. Mara Jade comes in and attacks the pilot who is currently repairing the ship (well there's one answer) when the pilot notices Mara, he pulls out a small standard issue blaster pistol. That's all i'm saying. Don't let this turn into a EU canon or not thing though. And, siege in JA sucks. Only good Siege map is Siege Destroyer, and that's because you don't use the crappy classes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-8252 Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Maybe there's a pistol somewhere in the TIE itself. But TIE Pilots aren't carrying weapons, as you can see them going with Vader to the TIEs and they clearly are not carrying any weapons. They don't have any holsters or anything... so they can't have it hidden. Well anyway. This argument is entirely irrelivant to the topic of this thread. I'm up for getting this back on topic... anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PanzerTekk Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Its safe to say that each ship has a survival pack in case they survived some crash etc. Survival pack would most likely include....yes...a blaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SITH_ShadowCat Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Originally posted by Master William I can own Jedis in Siege and Movie Battles, you just have to know how to do it Exactly! Half the time they're swinging away giving you the chance to shoot them. 75% of my kills come from jedi! I believe alot of the thing you mentioned are personal problems because I have no problem racking up kills and doing objectives (sucessfully I might add). It looks as if people only hate siege because they aren't any good at it. I for one hate what FFA has become. *Switches out Jedi Academy defence mode* *Switches in to Battlefront defence mode* I still don't see the big problem with letting the sniper have the recon droid. There are many ways to eliminate the threat...Such as killing the sniper, if he's too well hidin, detroy the droid it can't possible be a threat when noticed.

Elite Jedi Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Yeah, and remeber that the sniper sucks at close range. Plus ou got your own snipers to tkae care of it. If you ask me the sniper will have a hard time keeping ANY andvantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
