Majin Boba Fett Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Who will you play as? The guerilla warfare Rebels? Or the overwhelmingly Imperials? Personally, I'll take the the Empire.
BeBop Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Well, ultimately I'll end up playing both of course. But for the first time through I'll probably go Rebel. I like a game with a feeling of reasonable hopelessness. (Hoping EaW pulls it off right.) Then I'll go Empire, as for who I would normally play in MP, well, I think I'll only be able to decide that after experimenting with both sides.
FroZticles Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Empire!!! Rebels are bantha fodder. Bepo that's just another way of saying I'm going to see which side is more overpowered and I'll play that one
lukeiamyourdad Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 I'll take Rebels because of the starfighters and guerilla tactics. It's always fun to ambush people
FroZticles Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 You don't seriously believe you will be using stealth tactics and ambushes online do you?
Dagobahn Eagle Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Originally posted by FroZticles You don't seriously believe you will be using stealth tactics and ambushes online do you? Why not? The game encourages it, and the Alliance is especially adept at it in the game, so it'd be a waste not to do so. For example, you can hide fighters behind asteroids and ambush unwary imperial transports. I'll play the tutorial first, then we'll see. I picked the Imperials, though, as they have this "mighty" feel to them and some awesome equipment.
Darth Andrew Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Empire, mainly because of the mighty Star Destroyers and walkers. Though I will play the Rebels once in a while.
DK_Viceroy Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 I'll be p0laying Empire from the looks of things they'll have the strongest eco meaning that I can use my juggernaut strategies to destroy you all like I have before.
Majin Boba Fett Posted April 29, 2005 Author Posted April 29, 2005 I would imagine that in online games, very advanced players would use the Rebels to slowly defeat players using the Empire...but I'll use Empire nonetheless.
DK_Viceroy Posted April 29, 2005 Posted April 29, 2005 I think they'd be more likely to try and hit hard and fast early on before the empire player climbs too high up the tech tree.
Sithmaster_821 Posted May 10, 2005 Posted May 10, 2005 Rebs. I dunno, I always prefer the "underdog" civ. And i liked the rebs the best in SWGB.
Dagobahn Eagle Posted May 10, 2005 Posted May 10, 2005 I imagine and hope the Imperials will be like the Germans in Empires: DOTW. You had to keep them in check early on, or they'd start producing Tiger Tanks and V-2 rockets and all that other devilry, and then it was game over:D .
Sithmaster_821 Posted May 16, 2005 Posted May 16, 2005 Yeah, luke, long time no see. I come here occasionally to see if any major news has been posted about the game and I post on some threads. Im just burned out on idle speculation about this game, having done it for more than 2 years over at the GB board and theres a certain other RTS thats been getting more press and more updates thats been taking my time. Once real big information comes (perhaps at E3?), Ill be a more common visiter. (PS: I liked your old avatar(s?) better)
lukeiamyourdad Posted May 16, 2005 Posted May 16, 2005 Yeah, my old avatars were better, but I'll stick to this one for now. E3 starts tomorrow I think. We'll get some new info soon enough.
Jmaster3265 Posted September 12, 2005 Posted September 12, 2005 I like the rebels and imperials equally i would say, but i espeically like the imperials stromtroopers if you can't tell by my avatar!
general ackbar Posted September 12, 2005 Posted September 12, 2005 rebels mainly because of the awsome, awsome mon calamari capitol ships and the awsome fighters they have.
Garbageben Posted September 12, 2005 Posted September 12, 2005 Well I'm kind of in a pickle here as I will play as both Imperials and Rebels. I will probably play more with the rebels simply because I love their starfighters and starfighters will play a fairly large role in my strategies in space.
StealthWar42 Posted September 13, 2005 Posted September 13, 2005 Imperials... I like "heavy" things... Star Destroyers, AT-AT's, plus I like aesthetics and the Empire really has that going for them. Online, I'd play rebels. I love ambush tactics. Oh, by the way, to the person saying that there might not be ambush tactics online: this game seems to be a little bit like R:TW and that game has ambush tactics, in both campaign mode and battle mode, so it might be possible.
DK_Viceroy Posted September 13, 2005 Posted September 13, 2005 The Empire looks like it'll be able to do the most realistic Unit massing so if the Purist crowd start shouting Massing isn't Cannon NERF NERF NERF, then again though they'll shout it anyway since it's me
popcorn2008 Posted September 13, 2005 Posted September 13, 2005 I will eventually do both, but first off imperials because of walkers, TIEs, SDs, they have all the cool looking stuff lol in my opinion.
lukeiamyourdad Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 The Empire looks like it'll be able to do the most realistic Unit massing so if the Purist crowd start shouting Massing isn't Cannon NERF NERF NERF, then again though they'll shout it anyway since it's me Why would anyone be against unit massing for the Empire?
DK_Viceroy Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 I still remember the Unit Massing Thread where we were arguing about Realistic Unit Massing V Unrealistic Massing.
