Exar_reborn Posted April 27, 2003 Posted April 27, 2003 We all know the dark side loses but will they be more powerful as of the moment? And will the game follow the storyline as in time wise IE: 2 years from now will there be a patch with the deathstar being blown up? Wait is there going to be a deathstar?!?!
UnfrozenCaveman Posted April 27, 2003 Posted April 27, 2003 They've followed the timeline, is there any reason why they wouldn't? I don't think they'd go past ROTJ. Because that'd give the people in the EMP a disadvantage. Plus, we'd be out of the "golden years". There is a death star, but it's probably just now being constructed...or in the process.
Dark Moon Posted April 27, 2003 Posted April 27, 2003 I would imagine that the Empire is more powerful right now. Even though the Death Star was destroyed, they have the rebels on the run and probably still have more resources.
Wraith 8 Posted April 27, 2003 Posted April 27, 2003 no one will wint for sometime... and they are not messing up the continuity of the SW universe.. so the emperor will die at endor... but .... the empire will still excist
Kiedo Posted April 27, 2003 Posted April 27, 2003 I thought the game was gonna stay at the same place in SW history at all times... Now for somebody to come and prove me wrong. Come on! I dares ya!
Exar_reborn Posted April 27, 2003 Author Posted April 27, 2003 You think that they will build up the deathstar and put it in the game? Cause I'd wanna go there it would be sweet.
setsuko Posted April 28, 2003 Posted April 28, 2003 The devs have stated that time will be freezed, or almost freezed. Historically, that is. That means, in two years, there'll still be no second death star. The emperor won't die. The Jedi Academy will not be built. And so on, so just forget the thought. The whole point of SWG is that it is to be classic Star Wars, and that means no ventures into areas that are entirely built up by EU material.
Exar_reborn Posted April 28, 2003 Author Posted April 28, 2003 Ok, But I still think that after awhile they should progress it. To keep it in line. theres going to be a lot of competition. Middle Earth Online, Worlds of Warcraft. They have to stay up somehow.
UnfrozenCaveman Posted April 28, 2003 Posted April 28, 2003 Let the "competition" come. There's going to be so much bandwagon people coming that it won't matter to me if they leave. There's no doubt about it, SWG will succeed and survive well beyond anyones expectations. I don't think this "competition" will hurt SWG. I think the whole middle earth MMO is getting kind of lame. Everything is the same, and it's just like, okay, next new middle earth online game. Since AO we've seen a few more sci-fi ones come out, which is good, another genre. You really think W.O.W. will be released when blizzard says it will? Haha, it's just common knowledge that bilzzard never releases something on time. I don't think they should progress, I think a freeze or almost freeze is just perfect.
Kaiser Spaso Posted May 2, 2003 Posted May 2, 2003 there is no way i am going to miss the defeat of the deathstar..................i will be on the front lines to see that bad boy go up in flames!
Jackrabbit Posted May 2, 2003 Posted May 2, 2003 The devs have stated that time will be freezed, or almost freezed. The game takes place after the Death Star was destroyed for the first time. If time is frozen, you'll never see another Death Star, let alone it's destruction.
BobaWP Posted May 7, 2003 Posted May 7, 2003 Theres a picture on one of the sites that looks like Darth Vader in the Deathstar. So I would think yes there will be a deathstar.
Jodo Baas Posted May 7, 2003 Posted May 7, 2003 If the second Death Star has anything at all to do with the game, it'll be in a mission for Imperials. Basically, deliver the plans to Point A, collect information from Contact B, that kind of stuff. Point is, since the timeline will never progress, there won't be a physical Death Star at any time. Kind of lame, I know... but for the sake of the longevity of SWG, it has to be that way.

Jackrabbit Posted May 8, 2003 Posted May 8, 2003 It was probably a picture of an Imperial base, or a Star Destroyer. I've seen the picture before; I'll see if I can get it up here.
Jackrabbit Posted May 9, 2003 Posted May 9, 2003 Found it. Again, I'm guessing that's an Imp base or a . They said this is a pre-rendered shot, meaning they put the actors like this for a good pic, and you'll never see Storm Troopers, Royal Guards, and Vader Force Choking some guy all in the same place. Well, you might...
J.K Luke Posted May 12, 2003 Posted May 12, 2003 hmmm... we can't know for sure if vader is in death star judging from that pic.
setsuko Posted May 13, 2003 Posted May 13, 2003 Originally posted by J.K Luke hmmm... we can't know for sure if vader is in death star judging from that pic. Yes we can. Since it is a pic for a game where the Death Star doesn't exist. With this additional proof, we can more or less remove the idea that it is taken at the Death Star, can't we? seriously, the death star doesn't exist because a) death star 1 is already destroyed and b) work on death star 2 hasn't begun yet.
sexxxy_mark Posted May 13, 2003 Posted May 13, 2003 if the death star did exist...it would really suck cuz it can literally blow up a planet. (not that it needs to on a daily basis) so my logic goes in this fashion: deathstar is made and is mobile, but the cannon is not yet operational or the cannon is operational, but the deathstar cannot move yet, cuz it doesn't have thrusters or something. and when the deathstar is actually finished, it will not last too long, just to balance the factions out a little bit. i am guessing when they incorporate the spaceship flying portion of the game (expansion?) which i read somewhere that they would (i could be wrong) is when the deathstar would be blown up by x-wings, y-wings, a-wings, b-wings, etc...
UnfrozenCaveman Posted May 13, 2003 Posted May 13, 2003 if the death star did exist BUT IT DOESN'T! I don't see why so many people talk about the DS being in existence. It doesn't, it was destroyed in ANH, and there is a second one being built, however, that takes place between ESB and RoTJ. Therefore, there is no Death Star. Set, was correct, as usual
setsuko Posted May 13, 2003 Posted May 13, 2003 Originally posted by UnfrozenCaveman Set, was correct, as usual Boo-yah! In your face, space coyote!
Lord_Vessen Posted May 18, 2003 Posted May 18, 2003 Like I've stated before, I'd rather have the players decide on who wins. If you truly want to win then fight!
TheMaestro Posted May 20, 2003 Posted May 20, 2003 If I am flying an X-Wing around and see a Death Star...I would have to attack it just for the humor value. Just like how there's prolly some people on this board who would see Vader walking around, go up to him and say, "Stupid n00b."
Lord_Vessen Posted May 20, 2003 Posted May 20, 2003 If I saw him I'd shake his hand and brown-nose and such, I could get some creds that way...Or my incredible stench would kill him:D
