80 Star Systems? (Quote from pcgameworld.com)


-=Nuke=-

Recommended Posts

There will be over eighty planetary systems to wage war on and above. So don't expect one battle to decide the outcome of the war.

 

 

This is a Quote out of a Preview from http://www.pcgameworld.com

 

( http://www.pcgameworld.com/previews/gamepreview.php/id/88/ )

 

In the last month´s there was only around 40 Star systems, as told in the Movie from the EA-Australia Expo.

 

 

Anyone who knows more?

Alright let me clear somethings up,

 

Gamefreak: it does say 50, but it says OVER 50 (gotta read carefully), so petro could add more if they wanted.

 

Ghost: It says over 80 planetary systems, not battle fields. Theirfore there would be 160 total land and space areas. Also read the quote carefully, it says there will be 80 sytems to wage war on and above. Theirfore there will be 160 battlefields, with 80 on land and 80 in space.

 

Nuke: Great find!

 

I like the number 80 its nice. Im gald to see petro will be makin a lot more planets than 20. 80 is just fine for me. Finally some good news lol jk.

You didn't say 160, Popcorn said 160. But he said 160 battlefields (space and ground). The articale says 80 systems, as in star systems (like our own solarsystem).

 

And while we're mentioning systems, would that mean we get much more space and ground battlefields? :)

I mean, take the Corellian System. If Corellia, Talus, Tralus, Selonia, and Drall are all in the game, that's 10 battlefields in 1 star system right there. :p:D;)

 

hehe, I keeed. :D

 

Well, partially. All those planets I mentioned do orbit the same star. :)

Systems is the generic Star Wars way of referring to a planet.

 

"...or other STAR SYSTEMS will suffer the same fate as Alderaan," like Kenobi said in Episode IV.

 

In other words, we will have 80+ PLANETS. Which is still pretty good, if you ask me.

Yes, that's what I said. In the gaming world they are.

 

Rebellion didn't have a system (game system) that would have allowed the displaying of star systems containing multiple planets such as the Corellian Star System. Thus you had Corellia, Tralus, Talus, Selonia, and Drall scattered around in the Corellian Sector instead. Tralus for instance was on the opposite side of that Sector even and took days to reach it, which from a technical point of view doesn't make sense. But from a game point of view it does.

 

So unless EaW has the ability to zoom in so you can see star systems, then it will be the same here, except hopefully they will be grouped together instead of spread around in the galaxy this time.

There will be over eighty planetary systems to wage war on and above. So don't expect one battle to decide the outcome of the war. There will also be a multiplayer mode but Petroglyph and L.A. are keeping a tight lid on that information. What is known is there will be a skirmish mode for up to eight players.

 

Well I remember that in the past we maked a lot of lobby for 80 planets. I mean we had unofficial debates with Mike, Brett and Chris etc... and we were never able to win.

 

I do remember that we had 60 that in the latest update .... but now 80 !?! this can only mean that our community efforts payed off.

 

Congrats to all the people involved in the lobby. We made it !
