Guest DarthMaulUK Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 With more and more information being released, what has been the key component of the game that has really got you excited? Maybe the graphics, or those cool looking space battles? How about the chance to actually MAKE Star Wars history? Post away and take part in our poll.

Foshjedi2004 Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 Space Battles for me. However I am not impressed with the "proton Cannon" that Piett's ship is assigned. Nowhere in SW History is a Proton Cannon mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xsoy Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 gotta go space here.. the graphics look awesome, and so does pretty much anything else in my oppiniun, though thats not a relatively objektive oppiniun im pretty much determined on that this is the best SW game ever, no matter which way it actually turns out, but thats just my twisted mind - xsoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starmark2k Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 It's got to be space battles here as well, Although the ground battles look good there are lots of good RTS with ground combat and not any really good ones with Space IMO. What really excites me is the fact we are getting both ground and space. As this adds the stratergie of having to win both battles to take the planet.

endurell Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 I decided on graphics, simply because in rebellion (arguably this games predecessor) I sat drooling at the graphics. (You know you did too! ) With what I've seen so far this one will be no different... ...I hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THrawn((9 Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 i think that all the Aspects of the Game have impressed me but most its got to be the Graphics on the screenshots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juggernaut1985 Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 Where is the option for Nothing? Nothing has really made me drool except things that were talking about months ago and later taken out, like Orbital Bombardments. The only saving grace I see is modding the game. That'll make me drool, if LucasArts is nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popcorn2008 Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 I have to go with space battles as well. They look really good, now I just hope they are really good. Im also partial to the graphics which look excellent. I am somewhat disapointed that they revealed things earlier and they are removed now as well. Venator *cough*. Oh well life goes on I suppose, but they should have been more careful with releasing of information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BattleDamage Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Thats actually a very difficult question for me, because different games have already bested it in some ways for me. AOE 3 has graphics that make eaw's look like paper mario or somthing, and I think it has also bested it in ground battles.I cant stand heroes in an RTS at all, I think it takes some elements of strategy out. The min specs are so low it almost leads me to beleive that petro may even dumb teh game down to fit that and make it end up on the $10 dollar rack. Changing SW history isnt any newer because you can already do that for yourself in Rebellion and in a fashion SWGB.The only thing that really leaves me with space battles, and only then because theyre better than rebellion's. Everytime an announcement is posted I think of this game just one notch lower. First no Venator, then no ship capturing(which I really didnt expect to happen, but...), then no orbital bombardment;even Rebellion had that, and now a measly 20 pop cap in space battles!!!! I'm sick of them making the game bad because they want low system specs or whatever the hell they think theyre acheiving by it!!!!!!! Damn, glad thats off my chest, lol.

DarkLeeLee Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 i like the graphics and the space one thing that i dont like about is the repawning of your heros errrr but overall this game is impressive at this moment... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol are you kidding me you can honestly say AOE3 has better graphics? I'm afraid I have to disagree with you. The scenery may be nice but I feel EAW has better models. Althought that is your opinions. Finally, you can't only judge a game by it's gameplay. By the way your saying this game is similar and pointless because there is already SWGB and Rebellion. Do i have to remind you that there has been previous AOE games? So tell me whats so diffeent about AOE3 besides a few new features? So are you really in a position to say EaW is similar SWGB and Rebellion when AOE3 is similar to its previous series? p.s Note i said similarites not the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BattleDamage Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 For one, u do have valid points.Two, I have AOE 3's graphics on the very highest level, so that did kinda alter my view. Three, I'm not saying the game is pointless, I'm just saying they should stop making a big deal about the change the history thing cuz many games have already accomplished that. Four, in many asoects, rebellion IS looking a lot like EaW, if not better, in some ways TO ME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AOE III's graphics well.. were deffenetely not as good as EaW, and also if you want to judge by game play AOE III is basically AOE II in a different time setting with a newer graphics engine. EaW may take some getting used too, but you shouldnt jump to conclusions and complain without ever playing it. Also this game may have some similarities to Rebellion and SWGB but really its putting the two games together and making them way way better. SwGb wasnt too fun for me because the graphics were so outdated, but I really did like Rebellion. EaW will be a more modern good looking RTS for Star Wars, that will be a whole lot better than any other attempts. Now I am intereasted to see how building placement works. I havent ever played battle for middle earth, so im hoping the placement system wont be too much of a headache. I certainly like putting my buildings were I like them, its a whole layer of strategy. Of course, you could look at this as anouther form of strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Windu Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Well I'm going to have to go with - Lack of variety - Little replay value - Poor choice of timeframe as the things I'm most (un)excited about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absboodoo Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Can we add the new option "Venator is in" Voted for Space battle since this is the first official SW spacebattle game, well... the first nice looking one anyways lol. Rebellion was fun but the spacebattle really isn't much fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BattleDamage Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 U guys r so right..... now I feel I have brought shame upon myself and the whole lf commuinty *sob* now that i look back on that post, I remember having just waked up, I get kind of a whiny, cranky mix lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snafu7 Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Well alot of the game has impressed me, but the one that I'm looking forward to the most is the space battles(who didn't see that coming?), but the whole changing Star Wars history comes in a close second place.
