Guest DarthMaulUK Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 I've asked before and I looked at the last thread but I think it will be cool to see what you guys want. Please let's not go off track otherwise it will give me hours of reading! ;-) So far: 1) More downloads 2) Better Strategies (although we do have the best already) 3) New forum design. Since SWGB 2 wont be announced for a long while, the revamp wont be online for a while yet. Here's another idea. Maybe recording your games or screens for a new feature I would like to do with your stories of great battles, come backs and other stuff like that. Post your views now!

swphreak Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 So far, that list looks fine to me. I think a humor section would be kinda neat, but I don't know how you could get humor for SWGB... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tesla Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 Sounds cool hope u do revamp it , great site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourdad Posted April 5, 2003 Share Posted April 5, 2003 Scenario reviews would be great. Just saying. I just want to review them:D . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wok Posted April 5, 2003 Share Posted April 5, 2003 I dunno. I've always found these forums a little... cluttered, as opposed to, say, SWGBH. A redesign might be nice, although time consuming. And since they're the Lucas forums, that probably wouldn't be possible anyway. Apart from that, more downloads would be nice, especially in terms of scnearios and mods, the area of the game that I deal with. You might want to try asking the folks at SWGBH to submit their scnearios and mods, since they have lots, and their designers are very active. - Wok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joesdomain Posted April 6, 2003 Share Posted April 6, 2003 DarthMaul, I would suggest updating your cheats/hints section. Your missing 4-5 cheats. I think you are missing: Galactic Upheaval Suddenly Silenced The Most Powerful Jedi The Force is Strong With This One They are all on the Hint Vault under Clone Campaigns on Lucasarts website.

CorranHorn328 Posted April 6, 2003 Share Posted April 6, 2003 Yes, encourage porject announcements, make a Mod Forum, and make the site work with both Netscape and IE. Also, maybe put some projects in your news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joesdomain Posted April 6, 2003 Share Posted April 6, 2003 I don't know about mods. I am not that knowledgeable about the whole thing. I don't want a particular mod that i downloaded possibly messing up my only copy of GB and CC. I think a huge page devoted to strengths and weaknesses of each civilization.

joesdomain Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Another idea for the new website would be: Maybe a description of each civlization that was lengthy and detail instead of using Lucasarts description of each civilization. Provide information people didn't know about them or information that was uncommon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Praetorian Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 The recording games and writing battle stories is a good idea. I might post a few from a LAN party. I think the whole better strategy thing isn't necessarily that we want a "better" strategy section as much as we want more strategies, new strategies, etc. I admit, the current strategies are good, but we've read them already. So I think most people aren't asking for a better section, just some new strategies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joesdomain Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 I think there is a huge section on Scenario Editor dealing with things like giving information on units like bounty hunters, creatures, species, predators, heros, and other toy box units.

Sithmaster_821 Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 The only problem Praetorian, is that there aren't very many strategies. The one that's on there (the whole trooper war thing) is used, in one variation or another) almost exclusively early on and late game things like build orders and strats don't really come into play.

joesdomain Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 I don't use other people's strategies. Since it is a strategy game, I prefer my own strategy because most people's strategy is to rush the other player's base in T1, T2 or maybe T3 and win in less than 15 minutes. I prefer a long drawn out battle where the commanders can upgrade to tech 4 and research alot. Defensive strategy till Tech 4. I know it is a longer game. That is why I play against a offline computer in single player mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Praetorian Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 But my point is that there has to be a better strategy than trooper wars out there somewhere. Trooper Wars get kinda tiring. I don't play online much anymore (no internet on my computer, and no games on dad's), so I play on a LAN with my friends quite often. None of them knows what trooper wars are, so many other strategies have developed. I enjoy playing with them, cause they are always changing there strategies to attempt to find weaknesses in the strategies of the other players. Its been so long since I've used trooper wars, I'd have trouble going back to it. joesdomain, I agree. I love long games (if I have the time to play one). I enjoy long term strategy. That's another reason I love playing on the LAN w/ my friends. The games are usually long. Don't get me wrong, we rush and all that, but we normally don't focus on the rush. That's the cool part. Sometimes you get rushed, sometimes you don't, sometimes you rush and win, sometimes you rush and hit a massive wall of men that makes you wonder why in the world you agree to the teams.

Guest DarthMaulUK Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 With strategies, you play and adapt what's best for you. So long as you have an idea of the strengths and weaknesses of units in combat, you are on your way to success. DMUK Lets keep this room ON topic please. I think there is a forum for strats..pop over there. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corran Horn DFD Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 Again, make sure Netscape can load the site correctly. Currently the content is all way over at the right, and I have to scroll over to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cheat Posted June 27, 2003 Share Posted June 27, 2003 yeah, that happens to me all the time when i use netscape or mozilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DarthMaulUK Posted June 27, 2003 Share Posted June 27, 2003 Not sure why it does that. I think it could be down to the coding. Something to look into DMUK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Praetorian Posted June 27, 2003 Share Posted June 27, 2003 Before you go diving into code, DMUK, make sure they have their resolution set to at least 800x600. Back to suggestions...would it be possible to get a chat room? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DarthMaulUK Posted June 27, 2003 Share Posted June 27, 2003 The site should be able to adjust to any screen res. I noticed the problem when I used Opera to view the website. Since I do like Opera, I will figure out a way of sorting this one out. I think the LFN Network have a chat room. I will find out DMUK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Straykker Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 Hmm, it does it to me too, and I use Windows XP Pro, IE browser, latest version I told DMUK this like a year ago when it first came out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saberhagen Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 I'd like to see a more detailed guide to online gaming to encourage more people to play online. Also some information about the unofficial ranking system. eg what are the criteria for rook or inter or expert? That might help people get a better idea of their own ability so they can join appropriate games and also know how much they need to improve.
