Mountainforest Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Originally posted by Hex_is_me I dont think i would lose all hope. they are periodically adding more and more vehicles (justlook at the general vehicles) Its possible that they could have takin the shuttle out, because i have not see it in any screens. Please dont give me a bunch of crap about single vehicles like they did in my failure of a thread: missing vehicles at the official sight. When those vehicles got posted, they always posted a message in the newspart op the site: "air units added". The whole thing also was a feature on an other site, and the MAF was availabe there. What I want to say is that I doubt they add more and more vehicles, as they don't have much time to do that. The next update on the vehicles will probably be the land vehicles. Because the MAF isn't on any screenshot at all, I would hardly say I'm posting crap saying that I think it might not be in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nortenyo Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 The MAF is there. Many "up to date" screenshots are in fact very old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insanellama Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 i really hope the maf is in it because that is just like the republics laat/i or c and it looks pretty cool. About the droidekas someone could get some kills at the beginning of the gamme but if u dont use strategy and the other team does ur gonna get stomped in alittle...especially in clan matches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nortenyo Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 come to think of it...let me check again...I think the MAF may have been dropped. It might depend on what game mode you play. I will get back to you on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JawaJoey Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 "They won't continue their "tactic" if they keep dieing eh" Yeah they will, that's what makes them n00bs. Heh.

Heh. Nortenyo- So the droideka is balanced. what is it's weaknesses? The droideka has weak armor and can't move fast when unfolded into attack mode. It also takes some animation time to unfold...exactly like it does in the movies. You are vulnerable during that time, so you have to plan for your unfolding. Don't unfold if under fire. You almost have to play the droideka entirely differently than you do with the other units. The droideka is its own animal, but will reward players skillful enough to use it. Ideally you want to escort your teams droideka, as they are prone to being shot up if not protected by their own shield. Creative players will find ways of making good use of droidekas when the time is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulcan_sniper Posted September 1, 2004 Author Share Posted September 1, 2004 DO the droideka firing sound like they do in the movies? I ask this because in a Movie, with a speacial close-up action feature with the droideka, it sounded like a rapid-fire AT-ST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountainforest Posted September 5, 2004 Share Posted September 5, 2004 If you have two unfolded droideka's, you can put your entire team behind it. Their shields would provide nice cover! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revlt Coranier Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 Can the droidekas move while deployed? In the movies, they can, but slowly. They roll to get somewhere fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They roll to get somewhere fast. They can but only slowly, just like you said. It's one of the cans of the droideka. If you want to leave te field, you have to get to wheelmode, but that will take some time and you won't be able to defend. To depart without being shot, you should change mode in a place with cover, but getting there is difficult when moving slow. I can imagine that they won't be superstrong. It's like Nortenyo said: If you are skilled with them, you know when to change modes and where to do it, so enemies will mostly see the strong side of the droideka. I therefore take back that droideka's will be noobmagnets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nortenyo Posted September 9, 2004 Share Posted September 9, 2004 one thing you got to remember is this: If you play SWBF you are going to die. At least your character will. It's very very very difficult to get through a match without dying at least once or twice. Even the best players will get served. So...plan as much as you want with your droideka, play your best, but in the end, you will die. So respawn and try again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
