jawathehutt Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 which is better in this game i still like atte more
toue Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 i prefer the at-at but the ai seems to make better use of the at-tes widespread weaponry, also if they would fight and they were facing each other the at-at would win because of it's heavier firepower while the at-te would be stuck with more spreadout weapons that were all weaker then the at ats guns
REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 I preffer the AT-AT just because of it's inherent awesomeness:D And the added tactical considerations of snowspeeder tripwires. [ot]anyone else ever seen an atat do the exorcist neck crack:D[/ot]
toue Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 plus tarkin (the at-at was another tarkin prodject right?) had made the at-at as a improved version of the old repubics at-te ot reply yea once when i first played hoth, i was luke tryin to get up there an do some damage and i landed on the head which started goin flippidy flop everywhere tryin to kill me rather funny i must say
Redtech Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 Yep, the same way that the German "supertank" of WII is an improvement over the M1 tank because it's bigger. Meh, you can flank an AT-AT so easy, they suck so much they blow. At least an AT-TE can turn around! It's probably why levels with an AT-AT in BF1 were so small or had no decent vehicles, because as soon as you get behind it..POW! Also, Snowspeeders=win.
MachineCult Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 There must be a way to get both the AT-AT and the AT-TE in a map at the same time so someone could see which would win.
ParanoidAndroid Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 I think their was a mod map made that pitted them against each other... I would say the AT-AT. It's got stronger armor, and kick ass cannons (at least it did in BF1). Although the AT-TE's top cannon does pack a punch, it would really hurt the 'AT if it got it in the neck. I still gotta say the AT-AT wins. Of course if the AT-TE can get behind it then it's a diffrent story, but neither are exactly agile. I think it would get destroyed before it managed to lumber into position.
MachineCult Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 The AT-TE has those really fast missiles now which also packs a punch. Someone has to actually try it out properly.
lordzack Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 According to the RPG stats, the AT-AT is much stronger than the AT-TE. However I can see AT-TEs still being used on some backwater worlds or as support for AT-Ats, as they are pretty good aganist infantry with all they're laser cannons.
Alkonium Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 I think their was a mod map made that pitted them against each other...There is: Myrkr: Show of Force for the Battlefront I. It doesn't use the original AT-TE, it uses the modded Liberator-class AT-TE(it only looks different though).
Darth Andrew Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 Neither, at least in Battlefront II. Now, their primary cannons do diddily-squat against groups of infantry; I HATE trying to hit them dead on.
PoiuyWired Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 In BF1 they do a better job, mainly due to AoE areas... then again ALL AoE weapons got nerfed. Oh, snowspeeder can't do jack against ATAT. A careful ATAT pilot would park the two ATATs parallel when they move, leaving no room in between for the snowspeeder. If not, they will be parking next to a mountain/hill... Go back to shooting at his neck I would say.
Commander Obi-Wan Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 The AT-AT is better, but I like the AT-TE more. Since I like to use Count Dooku and jump on to the top of the AT-TE and kill the soliders in the gunner position.
Fate's Decision Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 Oh, snowspeeder can't do jack against ATAT. A careful ATAT pilot would park the two ATATs parallel when they move, leaving no room in between for the snowspeeder. Hmm...you know that the cable goes right through the other ATATs legs? The cable is long enough so that you can basically go around both of them, like they're just one fat ATAT. If they spead out far enough that the snowspeeder can't go around both at the same time, it leaves plenty of room for it to go in between both of them anyway so, technically, that trick doesn't work. Neither does lining them up, you can go right in between the other's legs.
General Solo Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 yea I think that the AT-AT could beat the AT-ET. But one advantage the AT-ET has is that the tow cables wouldn't be able to go around it that easy, then the at-at.

Neither does lining them up, you can go right in between the other's legs. You can try with a snowspeeder next time then. If you leave enough space between the ATATs there is hardly enough room to go between them, but wide enough to cause the wires to overstretch... Also you have to pilot really well, cause getting rammed by the ATAT will kill you, as will slamming on that big piece of metal. You also have to dodge its cannons.
General Solo Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 dodging it is pretty easy, it is just the ground troops and the turrets that are sort of the hard part to get by.

Commander Obi-Wan Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 I don't think the tow cables would work on the AT-TE at all. Obviously, it's legs are about the size of an average solider. Plus it would be rather stupid to fly that low.
Justus Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 I would go with the AT-AT, if for nothing else for the memories it brings of seeing ESB in theaters when I was a tike. In the game, I generally play rebellion era, so I have little knowledge on the prequel era tech.

Justus Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 Yeah I've seen them, the prequel technology just doesn't do much for me in comparison to the OT.
MachineCult Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 Fair enough, it's vice versa for me though.
Commander Obi-Wan Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 Fair enough, it's vice versa for me though. I agree...for obvious reasons.
PoiuyWired Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 *cough* Its tha age? *cough* I like both eras... Too bad some more interesting aspacts or the machines are not shown in the movies... like, ATAT have the option of carrying bike squadron, which is obviously not useful in Hoth.
