Sir Phobos Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 JA/JO like game being built on the source engine. I can get a little more information soon. Star Wars - The New Era - Movie Battles. Source Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datheus Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 I hate to be skeptical, but I expect this to be one of those mods that never sees the light of day. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Knight of Keno Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 I agree. It just seems too detailed to ever see even beta testing phase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Yeah, you never see these things get finished. But nevertheless good luck to the creator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabretooth Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Well, I'm all for good mods, but as Datheus says, this is the sort of mod that never really comes out. All the good mods that they announce normally end with a few betas and demos and disappear into nothingness. I've been waiting for the Dark Forces mod for JA for example, and the Cut Content mod for KotOR 2 for quite a while, I don't think they've come out yet.

BongoBob Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 I hope this can come to fruition. I hope the same about Black Mesa: Source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoxStar Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Let's all join the team. Us picky JO/JA bastards are bound to benefit it in some way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterRoss08 Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Ya lets see if any new gameplay issues are taken up besides those terrifc graphics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nalukai Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 either that or it gets whored to **** as a secondary mod to ruin ture games like ja+ cuz honestly movie battles SUCKS... every nub in that game uses staff or duals... if they want to counter act it-- deal with the speed factor multiple attacks vs a single in that type of envorinoment... cuz they as of right now do NOT have the accuracy in any form or sort,... not same ball park not same sport. MB is ungodly horrible and ruined JKA SIEGE just like JA+ ruined FFA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gametypes Starting with a Star Wars conversion of the DM/TDM mode, we will soon proceed to more exciting multiplayer modes which will suit single players as well as clans. Planned so far: Duel mode: fight against each other 1on1 as Jedi or Sith Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch: The basic gametypes of Half-Life² taking place in the Star Wars galaxy Capture The Flag: Speed up gameplay with strafejumps and 2 flags Movie Battles (Team Assault): The famous gametype introduced in Movie Battles 2 - choose a player class from plenty such as Bounty Hunters, Stormtroopers, Jedi, Hero and many more; each of them with his own special abilities. Take advantage of tactical teamplay and combine the forces of your squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Phobos Posted November 23, 2006 Author Share Posted November 23, 2006 Yeah I'd agree, don't rush to judgement just because there's a long list of failures on different engines. I have so much faith in the source engine, there's just such a great development community there. Always a brain to pick. A New Era FAQ: Excerpts..... In the later stage of development, we will also be creating a singleplayer campaign for those of you who prefer playing alone. Star Wars: The New Era will introduce to you a well-balanced combat system not only consisting of ballistic weapons from the Star Wars universe. You will also have the possibility to engage in Lightsaber duels. Instead of an arcade system, we will provide to you a tactical Lightsaber combat system which can be used against Force users as well as gunners. VALVe's implementation of the Havoc physics engine has already proven to enrich gameplay and fun in Half-Life², seeing the many fans of the Graviton Gun. We proceed even further and provide your favourite heroes with Force powers as an effective, yet balanced weapon against others...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Hard not to be skeptical that this will ever be released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alegis Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Did that Star wars Doom 3 mod actually succeed? Well mods do have their purpose, usually a mod team member here and there becomes recruited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgan Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 They're going to create a game identical to or superior to a JA mod in Half Life 2? I'll be greatly surprised if it ever gets completed... If it doesn't get shut down first (maybe LA doesn't do that anymore!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue15 Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 looks kinda like TPM TC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Phobos Posted January 14, 2007 Author Share Posted January 14, 2007 They're going to create a game identical to or superior to a JA mod in Half Life 2? I'll be greatly surprised if it ever gets completed... If it doesn't get shut down first (maybe LA doesn't do that anymore!) Sorry for bumping such an old thread but I had to reply. I wouldn't discount it out of hand this time. This type of game hasn't been attempted on the HL2 engine and if you've played around with gmod you'd be amazed at it's diversity. Coupled with the rather large HL2 development community, theres always a brain to pick. At the end, it'll gain popularity through the steam network. But hey I understand where the pessimism comes from, there have been so many failures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
