Jan Gaarni Posted December 13, 2002 Share Posted December 13, 2002 Rogue Squadron was the un-official name of Red Squadron which was part of the assault on the first Death Star. It had become official by the time of the Battle of Hoth. So I guess Rogue Squadron is around, but not necessarly officially known as Rogue yet. This game starts shortly after the Battle of Yavin, Swediot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deft Aklin Posted January 3, 2003 Share Posted January 3, 2003 Originally posted by Thew Rydur aren't stormtroopers supposed to be elite troops too? I think a lot of people a re confused by the fact that STs are supposed to be the elite troopers of the galaxy. First of all they are. You can't judge the STs because heroic characters mow them down like a weed whacker in a hay field. Remember, these are not ordinary people shooting at them. Secondly, if you notice in most of the battles, everyone runs from them. Remember Hoth? STs due to their sheer numbers can anhialate(sp?) most other troops. STs are highly trained, remember that according to WEG rules 2D is average and 3D is above average. STs had 3D-3D+2 in most combat skills. Doesn't sound impressive when your PC has 6D in Blaster and Dodge, but to normal Rebels with their 2D+1-3D stats, that's impressive. Just thought I would point that out. Wouldn't have been much of a movie if the STs had slaughtered the heroes in the first movie would it have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuzzyhair Posted January 4, 2003 Share Posted January 4, 2003 Dear God, a mass battle would rock. Although, you've gotta think how hard that would bog down the serverif it was all concentrated in one place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Gaarni Posted January 4, 2003 Share Posted January 4, 2003 Don't worry, the Devs have planned it like that. The server will hold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deft Aklin Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 Wow, I thought this thread was dead. "Die evil thread, DIE!" thread Anyway, a mass battle would rock, but how much preparation could the devs have made? We'll just have to wait and see, as anything else would just be speculation anyway.

Jan Gaarni Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 Big battles are what is expected of the people in this game between imps and rebs. The Devs expect it, it is part of this timeperiod. It'll hold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deft Aklin Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 Maybe it will maybe it won't. They also haven't tested it with as many people as they will be getting either. I expect mass crowds. What's the interest up to, like 400,000 people now. That's not counting the people who just aren't actively waiting and will buy the game when it comes out.

Thew Rydur Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 Well there are 20 servers. So thats like 20,000 per server on nine different planets. Plus at most probably only one third of those people will be on at any given time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deft Aklin Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 Even so, are you doing the math on that? That's like 6,666 people per server. That is a lot of people! Imagine half of that decides to join in one battle! Can the server withstand that? I don't know, I'm pretty pessimistic about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that there are supposed to be limits on the amount of people allowed in a "battle zone" at one time. Still i guess there is the possibitly that the server wouldn't hold, but I doubt it.

Deft Aklin Posted January 8, 2003 Share Posted January 8, 2003 I guess limits might protect the server, but that might kill the fun of it. Doesn't everyone want to see 1,000 vs. 1,000 imp vs. reb battle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
