Compa_Mighty Posted July 30, 2001 Share Posted July 30, 2001 I've posted this in another thread, but I think it should have its own thread. : Quote: "The space tileset is reminiscent of the Starcraft space terrain, except that in addition to space platforms there are also large asteroids among the stars. They're also populated with familiar Star Wars fauna, such as taun tauns and wampaas. Even the space setting has neutral creatures--the winged mynocs that flutter around asteroids."

Sith Lord1587246503 Posted July 30, 2001 Share Posted July 30, 2001 but will there be capital ships, like the sc ships? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tie Guy Posted July 30, 2001 Share Posted July 30, 2001 I don't think so, maybe a different game will include space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Starnick10287 Posted July 30, 2001 Share Posted July 30, 2001 there probably won't be any capitol ships like star destroyers(but it would be cool if there could be!) but you might still be able to have space battles with the x-wings, y-wings, ties, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tie Guy Posted July 30, 2001 Share Posted July 30, 2001 Yes, i wish we knew whether there were air to air battles, that would be a nice feature, but we don't... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clefo Posted July 30, 2001 Share Posted July 30, 2001 Air to Air Battles? Of course you probably can see Tie's fighting the all powerful Z-95! But unless you are talking aboot something else... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tie Guy Posted July 30, 2001 Share Posted July 30, 2001 Well, in previous games, opposing fighter could pass right by each other without attacking each other. In other words, air units couldn't attack air units. I hope that they will include anit-air weapons on fighters, so there can be dogfights.

Paragon_Leon Posted July 30, 2001 Share Posted July 30, 2001 i suppose they'll do that naturally. but capitol ship REALLY would be the ultimate addition. imagine them getting shot up gradually, with fires breaking out and all... ahhhh.

Guest Tie Guy Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 They could effectively be used as "superweapons, but not anything else. In other words, they could have a orbital bombardment weapon if you built a com tower upgrade or something, but they could never be playable.

Paragon_Leon Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 since the only thing we're REALLY comparing it with is AOK, i'd say they could be floating castles... sort of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tie Guy Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 They'd have to be floating castles that took up the entire map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paragon_Leon Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 not really. look at the castles in AOK. you could have a dozen of them and still not have the screen filled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tie Guy Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 i know, but capitol ships are larger than castle, or at least ImpStars are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Worf Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 I think the largest capital ship in the game would probably be a Corellian Corvette. Remember, having an ISD flying over a planets surface would seem a bit too far. If you wanted ships that size, then you could always create them with the space platform and put some anti air turrets on them for the turbolasers. I'm hoping they put ships like the Falcon and the Otana in. Worf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Rommel Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 The falcon is practically guaranteed to be in the scenario editor, probably as a hero unit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tie Guy Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 It would be really cool if they had a battle inside of a SSD or ISD. It could be like a covert sabotage mission, where you have a jedi and some troops and you have to blow the reactor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paragon_Leon Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 no, you're the one who stole the idea from Rebel Assault 2, where there IS a fighter battle inside a SD. hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Starnick10287 Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 I've played Rebel Assualt 2 and i completed the entire game in one day! But then i accidently deleted the saved game. And that mission was in a planet's mines. You had to escape while being shot at, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paragon_Leon Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 then do, and come back saying that it's in the game and we should all be inspired by that idea.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
