Lt. Havoc Posted October 3, 2004 Posted October 3, 2004 With your help please research and post screens of everything which didn't make it into the final game.

TK-8252 Posted October 3, 2004 Posted October 3, 2004 Technically, the standard Battle Droid did make it into the game, just in the Historical Campaign only.

Why would they put that many uncommon vehicles in? This game is not focused on the EU. And use the "edit" button instead of triple-posting.
Lt. Havoc Posted October 3, 2004 Author Posted October 3, 2004 why put forth all that work only to remove it? What happened in the final 4 months of development do you suppose? Are they pulling a DICE/EA and have embedded those materials to only unlock and use them later with an expansion like BF1942 and Road to Rome? Wouldn't it be awesome to get straight answers and a real explanation as to why we have a game very different from how it was presented months ago?
TK-8252 Posted October 3, 2004 Posted October 3, 2004 It's called: the game was rushed. There were so many things that were planned that had to be dumped due to their forced release with the Trilogy DVD's. Bobby's Helmet (dev that used to come to these forums) said all the things that were dropped. Mixing up the Pilot Droid and Assault Droid skins and not fixing them should be enough proof that it was rushed.
HolmstN Posted October 3, 2004 Posted October 3, 2004 Well, I think it would have been better if Lucasrts put more concentration into this game. Now, Im not sure, but I bet that Lucasarts had hardly anything to do with this game. It was probably Pandmic that did (and didnt do) most of thgis stuff. Now, Im still confused about the difference between a publisher and a developer, so I probably don't have a very highly listened to opinion But still, WHY drop the probably to be est part of this game, ONLINE Galcatic Conquest. I mean, dropping that totally ruined this game for me. Not enough to not play it, but enough to not play it constantly. In fact, alot of multiplayer was ruined.
Skellington Posted October 3, 2004 Posted October 3, 2004 The publisher, in this case, contracts the development of the game out to another company. LEC's part in the process was mainly to come up with and okay the concept for the game, and to do QA testing in house for the work Pandemic was doing. Then, LEC takes the final version, and handles duplication, packaging and shipping. Again, I have this directly from someone who worked on LEC's end of the game, the essential problem with the game is that LFL TOLD them they would have a street date of September 21, to coincide with the DVD release. The game in whatever state of completeion it existed, HAD to be on shelves on that day.
primalunderdog Posted October 3, 2004 Posted October 3, 2004 i did not mean to triple post i was just in a hurry.Sorry guys. Well if you have the encyclopedia you realy learn ALOT OF STUFF,any thing you have seen in the movies there is info about and that is no joke!There is also more stuff that is Before battle of yavin and after the movies.That pissis me off when you know there is more but you can't have it. The Virago mentioned before is my picture underneath my name.
MURS Posted October 3, 2004 Posted October 3, 2004 Ya they COULD have more vehicals, but that wasn't what they were going for. Wasn't this game about re-creating the major starwar battles that happened in the films? Hence the Historical Campgain. Point being it would be sweet to see the Tie- Advanced, Tie - Crawler, ect.. but you never saw half those in the battles in the movies.
DieStarWarsGeek Posted October 4, 2004 Posted October 4, 2004 Why take the time making all those units and vehicles, then take them out? LAME. That's my question, the game had MORE things in it months ago, it seems like the only thing they spent the last months doing was taking stuff OUT. Big decisions I guess.. They have work to do still. A lot of work.
Barcrest Posted October 4, 2004 Posted October 4, 2004 Well on HOTH the imps should have that cannon on a tripod. You could buy it as a kenner figure back int he day and it is even star wars arcade. Instead they cheated and just gave them the same gun towers as the rebs.
Neon Posted October 4, 2004 Posted October 4, 2004 Too bad for everything, I wish this will be fixed in the next maptch.
tea-cosy Posted October 4, 2004 Posted October 4, 2004 Hopefully these can all be included by the community, certainally gives a lot to do
SM_drunkcow Posted October 4, 2004 Posted October 4, 2004 Yeah and they left out the (in my mind) the biggest battle of all, The ending one in space where they blow up the deathstar or the big round sphere with all the bad dudes in it. I want to blow it up too. And I want to fly the falcon whatchacall it. Its in hoth as decaration. I think they are going to release a new expansion pack with at least half of the stuff we are all wanting. And my guess for why they took all these great things out is... 1) they didnt have all the major bugs worked out in time for the upcoming release date. (september 21, 2004) 2) they decided they would like some extra money and make expansion packs.
SM_drunkcow Posted October 4, 2004 Posted October 4, 2004 I wander if the devlopers actually look at some of these forums and all the complaints and then some of the applauds. Because if they did then they would know how to change there game in a patch (what we all want) or as they probaly would in an expansion pack.(which we want but dont want to pay for). We just spent at least 40 dollars for an unfinished game. And now as it looks we are going to have to spend another 20 or probally more on expansion packs giving us what we wanted in the beginning.
