Mr. Fragster Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 I agree...very balanced, like the way it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stingray Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 is it possible to add the option of "they are all balanced"? since when this poll has 'ended', only THEN we'll be able to conlcude if all is balanced or not. This way, those that feel it's balanced have no choice of voting and cause the poll to be biased. btw: I voted CIS since the only big difference with other factions are the special units and the droideka is pretty useless, IMO. The rebel special unit isn't that great either, but at least it has a grenade launcher which can be of use sometimes + their vanguard shoots 2 missiles at a time which is pretty handy as well. The good use of the jetclones and the imperial darktrooper is undeniable (although the darktrooper doesn't have that special a gun). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Dark Jedi Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 I dont think the droideka is useless. When I use it the shots go in two straight lines. Like the way it is supposed to be. And the shield is very balanced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your right they are pretty balanced.... but I just hate the rebels but ill try to fix the poll EDIT: Dang it! Edit Poll is mod only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blimbo Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 I chose the CIS. On a lot of maps the jet trooper gives them such an advantage at capping points that they suffer greatly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alegis Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Originally posted by RebelScum1 EDIT: Dang it! Edit Poll is mod only Done. Anyone who wants to change their vote let me know. try to get a smaller sig (in height), it now fills up quite some space I first thought CIS, but after looking into it a whle its all balanced. Super BD have a great chance vs jet troopers if they do it right etc, everyone now just needs to train more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyral Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Originally posted by Blimbo I chose the CIS. On a lot of maps the jet trooper gives them such an advantage at capping points that they suffer greatly. The CIS is the Confederation of Independent Systems, the Seperatists. They don't have the Jet-Trooper. I think you mean the Republic. And I like alle the factions. I will vote for "balanced" when the poll is updated.

Willybone Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 I find that the Droids lose more often than not, in the games I'm in. But, they're my favorite team anyway. After several rounds of losing and people leaving, I'm sometimes the only human left on the CIS team. Just the way I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alegis Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Kyral, he did mean that. He meant that the clones with jet trooper give the CIS such a disadvantage, and the poll is updated. Thanks for the acronym though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beard Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 I voted CIS, but what this poll doesnt show is to what level of balance there is... so my 2cents: CIS isn't that much worse than other teams. I love the sniper's double zoom, and for those still in the learning curve of aiming well - the assualt droid's tri-shot is nice. Only reason i picked CIS is because in most situations droideka is just awful. I only use it in 3 situations. 1. when being CP camped, the shield is somewhat helpful (but when it goes down a strong breeze could kill you ) 2. If i need to get to a ungaurded/far away CP & take it over fast. 3. For fun. (then i die shortly thereafter and go back to a better class).

Mountainforest Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 So stupid, after one thousand 'what faction do you like best' posts we weren't able to think of this I think they did a perfect job balancing, but I like the rebels less then the other factions.

Super BD have a great chance vs jet troopers if they do it right etc, everyone now just needs to train more They have a great chance but they often start out way behind. An organized group of jet troopers can have all points capped before the bots ( - droideka) can even get to one. Especially on maps where each team starts with one, and platforms are a jet troopers best friend. I've seen a lot more maps end in 3 mins with the Republic the victor than vice versa. That said, I prefer to play the CIS for the challenge and the SBD is a probably the most versatile class in the game. Edit: Removed a [/b]. And in my original post I did have some confusing pronoun usage. "Them" = Republic, "They" = CIS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman_IX Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Every faction has their drawbacks (Rebels: the wookiee sucks. Sniper not as good. Lack of mobility in their classes. Pilot's gun sucks. Empire: jettrooper's gun sucks, pilot sucks. Clones: pilot sucks. CIS: droiddeka is hit or miss, guns all-around suck.) but the CIS I think are the worst. Their guns seem innacurate on the whole (probably just from not using them much) and the droiddeka is almost worthless most of the time. Even if you know how to use it, being stationery is killer and you are a big big target. They lack a really good side that every other faction seems to have. Empire has good vehicles and all their classes fill a role. Clones have the best units. Rebels have double-shot missile launcher and good anti-infantry and anti-vehicle.

Evil Dark Jedi Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 The clone pilot is very good if you know how to use the gun. I am very good with it. You need to get really close and charge the gun to get a droid in one hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrinker Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 If the game is balanced then the CIS won't win this poll. From the current results though it looks like it will. The problem with this game is that the CIS seem to suffer unfairly. Whether that's because they're the weaker side I don't know but I do see a lot of servers where human Republic players vastly outnumber CIS players. That's because of a couple of things... 1. Many players think the CIS are underpowered (true or not it doesn't matter) 2. They're just not cool. Take heed Lucas, robot armies are rubbish! The game needs a system to encourage balanced teams on player select servers. At the moment, thanks to the crappy player list you can't even tell if the teams are unbalanced.

Stingray Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 In my experience the CIS usually loses as well when the teams are balanced. That is, if player select isn't enabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Dark Jedi Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 Normally when I be CIS, CIS win. Dont know why but its true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teeth_03 Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 saying this just from single player experiences,I say the Rebels,IMO,the wookie is more useless then the droideka,the droideka can probably take out a few non-jet trooper units befire she gets blown. The wookie..barely looks like a wookie,not tall enuf... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he meant that the Republic is too powerful because of the Jet-Troopers and thats why he don't like them. Anyway... As i promised, i voted for "balanced" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alegis Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 Wookiees don't suck iceman. The timebomb is extremely powerfull (4 to take down shield thing in endor, 1 for an at-st etc) And the bowcaster is very powerful. Though indeed, you'll want to stick next to buildings etc like the pilot to engage in close combat (one good shot is a kill) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
