Darth Damage Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 has anyone ever watched the intro movie at the official SWG site. the last clip is vader doing the choke and the subtitle says, "join the galactic civil war" does this mean you can actually fight people on battlefronts and all???

Thew Rydur Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 Well you can join the Rebels or the Imps. I do remember reading something in CGW awhile ago about how there will be "war zones" in which the sides from each faction fight. After a certain amount of time one side is declared the winner and then they control that area. I'm not sure if this has changed since then though.

Darth Damage Posted June 28, 2002 Author Share Posted June 28, 2002 do you think that involves shooting at someone, although i do have to keep in mind that it is an rpg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thew Rydur Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 I believe you would be shooting at someone, what else would you do in a battle? Of course you could be hacking someone into pieces, or stab them, or implode them with a thermal detinator, or...... oh sorry got a little carried away:D .

Jan Gaarni Posted June 29, 2002 Share Posted June 29, 2002 Yes, you will be able to shoot people. How it works in detail I'm not sure of yet. Â Although you will be able to use blasters you can forget about any technical stuff you can read everywhere on their range. The maximum range in-game will be 128m, if I remember correctly, which is also the maximum visible range you can see things (people, rocks, speeders etc....).

DudEhead Posted June 29, 2002 Share Posted June 29, 2002 won't the range be expanded later on? because the game engine can handle stuff today's pc's can't handle yet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicness Posted June 29, 2002 Share Posted June 29, 2002 Wouldn't the range be longer for a marksman. If they have scopes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â won't the range be expanded later on? because the game engine can handle stuff today's pc's can't handle yet... Possibly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bothanjedi Posted June 29, 2002 Share Posted June 29, 2002 I don't think so, only if you are allowed to build them... and yes it is a 128m visual range, and at about 3/4 the distance out the scenery is 2D and for the rest it is 3, meaning everything that is 3/4 out of teh visual range is 2D.

DudEhead Posted June 29, 2002 Share Posted June 29, 2002 errr... where does it say that about the 2D/3D thingie? cause i can't imagine how something like that would give the results the current graphics show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bothanjedi Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 I think it was at SWG.net, on one of those big news posts... I can't really remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

setsuko Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 Yes, the 2D-3D graphics engine is not a hoax. It is very official. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
