Lord JayVizIon Posted July 31, 2001 Posted July 31, 2001 zero, thanx for the update on the screenshots. to answer the person's question of why not using the starcraft engine, these pics are the reason why....AoE ran on a more powerful system, the same can be said of swgb
Guest Tie Guy Posted July 31, 2001 Posted July 31, 2001 yes, that would be very nce seeing as i don't get PC Gamer. And it would be cool if the air units returned to a hanger when fished, that would be much more realistic.
Lord JayVizIon Posted July 31, 2001 Posted July 31, 2001 paragon, no problem. also, yes air units will hover when at rest, i found that out from mr.fixit. check out his website. those guys spent 29 hours on playing the beta version so they know more than a thing or two......enjoy
Guest Master Yoda Posted August 1, 2001 Posted August 1, 2001 I noticed That the Y-Wings look like they have 4 engines, I hope they fix that so that they a little more realistic!! I havent seen any pics of the a-wings or snowspeeders yet though.
Paragon_Leon Posted August 1, 2001 Posted August 1, 2001 a-wings and snowspeeders will need very little graphic change from what i've seen. i actually like the way the Y-wings look. very, very detailed. the engine-bit is something they might change, or did on purpose for whatever reason.
Guest Master Yoda Posted August 1, 2001 Posted August 1, 2001 The Y-Wings do look real good except for the engines..
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 2, 2001 Posted August 2, 2001 the y-wings are up to scale, as well as almost every other unit posted on the screenshots.
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 2, 2001 Posted August 2, 2001 keep in mind that there may be other units never portrayed in the movies in this game.
Paragon_Leon Posted August 2, 2001 Posted August 2, 2001 there definitely will be. the designers got a lot of vehicles from pre-production sketches that were never used in the movies.. so if you have those sketch-books that are out there, you can see a bit on what they'll use..
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 2, 2001 Posted August 2, 2001 you're right paragon, they will use other never before seen units. it's also on pcgamer.......
Paragon_Leon Posted August 2, 2001 Posted August 2, 2001 i hope they'll post an undate-feature in that mag pretty soon.. they should probably do that in september sometime..
Guest Tie Guy Posted August 3, 2001 Posted August 3, 2001 I wish i got PCGamer, but sadly, i don't.... BTW, how would they do it if they didn't make up some units or at least used ones not in the movies?
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 3, 2001 Posted August 3, 2001 ummm, resources such as the guide to vessels and vehicles......
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 3, 2001 Posted August 3, 2001 don't worry tie, you can always purchase one at barnes and noble. i think their next issue about the game will be in november/december. that's when the game comes out and they will review it as well...........they could put some stuff on it in september/october as well, so be on the lookout..............
Guest Tie Guy Posted August 3, 2001 Posted August 3, 2001 Ok, i may have to go cheat Barnes and Noble and sit there and read the magezine in the store. I hope it doens't come with a plastic cover, that wouldn't work.
Paragon_Leon Posted August 3, 2001 Posted August 3, 2001 why not buy just the issue that has a feature in it ? there's bound to be another one in the coming months.. we'll let you know when it's there. so far they seem to have screenshots that are not featured on the web, so i really liked taking a look at those first-hand. The latest shots are crisp like you-wouldn't believe. Did anyone else look in awe at the foliage around the Gungan-base ? Incredible...
Guest Tie Guy Posted August 3, 2001 Posted August 3, 2001 Yeah, you have a nice scanner don't you? Please post them if you can. I might buy PC Gamer though, and i've wanted a subscription for quite some time. Oh well....
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 3, 2001 Posted August 3, 2001 rommel, i think he's referring to the 5 newest screenshots, b/c they certainly don't have gungan foliage in the mag. however, there is a cool battle going on with AT's and snowspeeders as well as units i've never seen fight for the empire........ by the way, to post a pic that big wouldn't work here, you'd have to set up your own website and place it there..........
Guest Tie Guy Posted August 3, 2001 Posted August 3, 2001 Yeah, well i think we're gonna see alot of units we've never seen fighting before in this game. That's why it's gonnna be so great.
Guest Redwing Posted August 3, 2001 Posted August 3, 2001 TIE Guy, you've never seen an A-Wing?????? MAN I pity you! ps it's the ship that crashes through the Executor's bridge in RotJ.
Paragon_Leon Posted August 3, 2001 Posted August 3, 2001 yes, i was talking about the new screenshots posted on this site. the one with the Gungan Town Center has some very nice foliage-graphics. scanning the pics from pc gamer will get too heavy very quickly, but they do have some pics i might be able to scan, or i could do a sample of the snowspeeders. i just don't know where to post them and i'm not too keen on changing my avatar like jay did..
Guest Tie Guy Posted August 4, 2001 Posted August 4, 2001 I've seen an A-Wing before Redwing, you know i have....now shut up Anyways, you could make a free page reall quick and put those pics of them, that would be easy. then you could just put a link there.
