TieDefender75 Posted January 2, 2002 Posted January 2, 2002 (i dont know where to put this mods, so dont yell at me) in ep1 i saw the trade fed fighters in a walker mode, so why cant they do that in the GB game?
Rogue15 Posted January 2, 2002 Posted January 2, 2002 ya! i was wishing the same thing, but am a little disappointed that there wasn't a 'walker' version of them...o well, maybe in the expansion...
Jay the Jester Posted January 3, 2002 Posted January 3, 2002 I have also thought about the issue with star fighters. In my oppinion this is what whould have happened, and if their is any way to improve the existing system to incorperate it..... PLEASE!!! have the air units have 2 stages 1. Landed 2. En-route its as simple as that. This would add to couardanating attacks and defenses, add to realizem, and could add campaign tools. I also really wanted to see fighters attack while moving, not just sitting there "floating", and I would liked to have seen ground units be able to attack fighters. This would add to fighter straffes stratagy and deffenses. If fighters had light dogfighting ( swooping around after theyve passed over the unit) there would be a really interesting fray off fire against the fighters.
Rogue15 Posted January 3, 2002 Posted January 3, 2002 but then the games wouldn't be land based and everyone would be using starfighters....
Influenza Posted January 4, 2002 Posted January 4, 2002 Yes, then the game would be more like Star Wars! We can't have that...
Chessack Posted January 4, 2002 Posted January 4, 2002 Originally posted by Influenza Yes, then the game would be more like Star Wars! We can't have that... It's nice to make it as close to Star Wars as they can, but in order to be a game worth playing, it has to firstly be playable. A game that's just like Star Wars but is not balanced among the abilities of the civs would hold your attention for a few minutes, and then you'd get sick of it. A game that has good balance, as this one does, while it may not be a perfect replica of the Star Wars universe, will be playable for weeks or months, precisely because of the balance. So, making it as much like Star Wars is great, but the game is well balanced and works, and I for one would not like to see them do anything that disrupts that balance, not even if it makes it more "realistic."

Influenza Posted January 4, 2002 Posted January 4, 2002 I know. It was meant more as a joke, really. Sorry if it didn't come out that way.
Influenza Posted January 5, 2002 Posted January 5, 2002 Heh. I was considering posting that here, but I wasn't sure how it would be received...
Natopo Posted January 22, 2002 Posted January 22, 2002 Well, I was thinking about an idea for the x-pac would be that you could like deploy the fighters like the cannons to make the TF air more superior.
Influenza Posted February 4, 2002 Posted February 4, 2002 Rogue15 refers to Star Wars: Total Annihilation, a Star Wars total conversion for the popular RTS Total Annihilation. I'm one of the makers of the mod . If you own TA or can get a copy, I'd highly recommend downloading SWTA for a great alternative to SWGB. The "Walker Pack" is the current pack in development and includes many Imperial Walkers and Rebel tanks/hovercraft. Check it out at http://www.tauniverse.com/swta (provided our host is still up when you try )
Guest Darktrooper Posted February 18, 2002 Posted February 18, 2002 I have Ta and like a it a lot i would really like to see what is like combined with SW. would there still be threee catargories of units, Air, Robots ( dont know proper name) and tanks . whay civs are there is it just empirre and rebels
