Lord JayVizIon Posted July 29, 2001 Share Posted July 29, 2001 hmm, dagobah sounds cool. what about that air battle with the rebel and imperial air fleets from return of the jedi? i don't know if the death star should be included, but what do you guys think?

Guest Tie Guy Posted July 29, 2001 Share Posted July 29, 2001 I don't think that space battles would work, and they wouldn't have any space units to fight with anyways. I would be cool though, and that's exactly what i imagine Rebellion to be, BattleGrounds in space, but it wasn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paragon_Leon Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 well, the real-time battle in Rebellion does resemble RTS a bit, but it's still commanding and then executing. let's see, from what i've seen so far, they have thse spaceflight-units: TIE-fighters TIE-Interceptors TIE-Bombers Z-95 X-Wing A-Wing Y-Wing Transport hmmm... yeah, that's a bit on the shallow side for a space battle. so roll on those capital-ships, Lucasarts !

Darth_Rommel Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 I don't know about that, it could be a fighter only battle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tie Guy Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 But there's that one problem of air units might not be able to attack other air units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clefo Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 It really couldn't be Air Battle since there is no air in space.. duh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tie Guy Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 Well, it's a good thing this game takes place mostly in an atmosphere, where there is no space, duh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clefo Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 Umm you fight like a cow, duh. Well Air just dosen't seem right, space does though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tie Guy Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 Why doesn't air seem right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clefo Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 well the battle took place in space see.. Aw forget it I thought I made myself clear the first time.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tie Guy Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 Obviously not This battle would be in space, but most of the rest would be on the ground, in the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clefo Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 I noticed in a screen shot that their were multiple tilesets on one map, are you thinking of something like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Tie Guy Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 I wonder, maybe it is the different types of terrain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord JayVizIon Posted August 1, 2001 Author Share Posted August 1, 2001 the different color patches on the mini map indicate the number of factions playing. red could be one group (i.e. me and my wookie homeboys), blue could be someone else playing the gungans (watch out!!! ), etc. it's the same as playing AoE, starcraft, etc. with many groups..... by the way, i take back the air battle.... that's more of an xw alliance thingy. but, it be cool to have some aerial assaults similar in fashion to starcraft's.

Lord JayVizIon Posted August 1, 2001 Author Share Posted August 1, 2001 tie, air units will be able to attack other air units, i asked blue myrriden if air units have both air to air and air to ground attacks. depending on how you play, your air units are the first defense against other air units, towers and boats at TL3 and other anti air defenses are you last line of defense...

Compa_Mighty Posted August 1, 2001 Share Posted August 1, 2001 I think they will be able to attack other air units... X-Wings weren't exactly good against buildings without exhaust port terminals... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paragon_Leon Posted August 2, 2001 Share Posted August 2, 2001 hey, that would actually be great on buildings: a weak spot !!! if you'd target that one, the whole thing would blow up in one shot, but you're not guaranteed a hit... how about it ?

Guest Worf Posted August 2, 2001 Share Posted August 2, 2001 Starcraft does show the units and buildings of the other players, but something tells me that none of the units and buildings will take up an 8th of the map. The AoK maps were build using different terrain types...if you wanted you could have snow right next to desert. Battlegrounds will be the same, so you can put some space in the middle of a forest if you wanted. Worf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paragon_Leon Posted August 2, 2001 Share Posted August 2, 2001 well, i guess it's all for the better in terms of gameplay, so i won't whine over that.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
