starmark2k Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 Do you think that you will have to buy fighters or will they be already in the capital ships. will you be able to just control a single fighter or do you need to control squadron. i know that no one actually knows but what do you think and what would you prefer.

swphreak Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 hmmm... the space battls might be like Star Trek: Armada 2. And it would make sense to control a group of fighters. It'd get a bit too micro-managing trying to ocntrol wings of TIEs as well as other ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starmark2k Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 looking at the screens it dosan't look much like armada 2 and seems completely original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jokemaster Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 According to the magazine, it's Armada, but better. Also, you can attack specific parts of larger ships, like engines, hangars and weapons systems. I also read that you build fighters at bases and space stations, so I guess you build them then station them on a certain ship. Or the game does it automatically.

Nairb Notneb Posted January 14, 2005 Author Share Posted January 14, 2005 I am assuming that the strategy to this game will be in the logistics planning, how you manage your galactic resources and how you move/place your military. Just like in real life. I would guess that the fighters will be automated. You will probably give out a command to a wing or group of fighters and they will then follow your orders. I think that the capitol ships might work in a similar fashion. The space battles will probably function with the player being in the role of an admilral barking out commands to the crews and pilots.

lukeiamyourdad Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 Seriously, I'm happy that they go the Armada way and not the Homeworld way. I was always annoyed with the camera and spent more time on the tactical map then actually watching my fighters in full 3D flying around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DarthMaulUK Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 They did say that this game will be more like Homeworld, however, the camera will be totally different, so you wont get in a 'spin' and able to easily not go dizzy!
