StormHammer Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 Oh...my...GOD! They've done it. The game we talked about a couple of years ago...the game I wanted to see them develop. And LEC have finally done it!. Go and read the skinny on it here. There is also a trailer movie link on that page, which rocks, IMHO. I just can't...seem...to...breathe.... *gasp...thud* :D :D :D It will be using the Unreal engine. YES! It will be a brutal FPS for the PC and X-Box! YES! I have a new hotly anticipated title on my list...which is easily up there with JA. Thank you Lucasarts! You actually ROCK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FunkMaster Solo Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 hmmm...could be nice, but it smells like a X-box first, pc second game...and we all know what ports are like, even if they're made in parallel with the original concept... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it will be a console port. That wouldn't make a lot of sense, considering they're using the Unreal engine, which is a very strong engine on the PC platform, particularly where MP is concerned. I imagine they will probably do what Bioware have done with SW Knights...and produce the two different platform versions in tandem. Of course it's likely the content will be the same...but there's no reason why that means it will be a bad thing. I have faith in Lucasarts this time around. They've listened to a lot of feedback from the game community over the years, and I don't think they'll set out to disappoint us. I hope they put up an official site for the game soon, with some screenshots, etc., and further information. I want to know if it's mission-based in a similar way to DF/JA...

Jedi Apprentice Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 Wow, this game looks completely awesome! It might even beat JA......well maybe not, but you never know. Squad based clone war action. A dark Star Wars title. I never thought I would be saying that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boinga1 Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 Honestly I can't stand that trailer, there was 0, repeat 0 footage from the game....which I hate. Sure I don't mind some hype...but I don't see the point if you aren't showing off the gameplay. Make folks suspicious. Ah well, I shouldn't complain at this early stage. Still...we're a clone trooper? How dull a character is that? Granted, missionds'll probably kick butt, but the characters'll be pretty flat.

jokemaster Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 Well, It's definetly different from other, and this could mean a second FPS Star Wars series other than Dark Forces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swoosh Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 I think it's far too soon to think the story will be flat and boring...I mean, we know the title of the game and a brief trailer. Perhaps this isn't a clone at all...we just don't know at this point. Swoosh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vagabond Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 I have to admit, that I too had raised eyebrows about playing a clone trooper, and that they featured the blah Geonosians in the trailer - one of the most boring Star Wars combatants ever, in my opinion. However, I love the idea of using the Unreal Engine, and having a squad-based FPS. That should be really fun. They just need to have a much more interesting story than seemed to be the case in the trailer. I mean, if all we do is fight flying bugs and other boring foes, I think I'll go buggy before you can say I've got a bad feeling about this. To be honest, the press release got me more excited than the trailer. Here's to hoping that the actual game is far more interesting than the trailer made it seem *raises glass* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WD_Rage Posted May 15, 2003 Share Posted May 15, 2003 Why couldn't they use the Unreal engine for JK2 and JK3? Bah! Since Raven has made my interest in the JK series die (long live JK1!), maybe this game'll hold my time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shotokan Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 If this game doesn't have a multiplayer I'm definitely going to cry. With such a cool looking game like this it'll be totally unholy that they don't include a mp mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
