Guest JediIgor Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 Yeah, maybe you guys didn't catch the news, but LucasArts, being as retarded as they are, hasn't released the Linux dedicated server programs yet.. so we'll just have to wait.  Frankly, I've been checking out the forums and judging by that as well as LEC's behavior, it seems as if Battlefront is a very poor game. I am thinking of downloading the game first before I buy it, or the demo if that comes out first (funny how the demo is released BEFORE the game for good games, AFTER the game for bad games).

PHSYCOBOB Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 Not exactly what I was looking for, (since I don't have an x-box) but if you get the dvd box set, you can get a demo for the xbox. http://pc.ign.com/articles/507/507753p1.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vero Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 How much was it thrawn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand_Admiral_Thrawn Posted September 22, 2004 Author Share Posted September 22, 2004 Surprisingly cheap, only $57.00 CAN, taxes included. Well JI, just remember that you can't believe everything you read on the net. From my experience the game is awesom, better than any similar games on the market. As for the demo not being released until after the game was, your theory is off. Force Commander's demo was out before the game was released, and look at how great that game was. Your assertion of downloading the game before you buy it isn't very hones (not that you won't, but the practice of downloading copyrighted material isn't honest). I suggest you buy it, and if you're not happy, just don't recommend the game to your friends. History is on the move, Captain. Those who cannot keep up with it will be left behind, to watch from a distance. And those who stand in our way will not watch at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADarkJedi44 Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 Yup, been playing for an hour or two now. The game is awsome! Thrawan, want to set up a server to meet at while the SWR isn't up? Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellar_Magic Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 So in your opinion its cool But how realistic is it? And what are the system requirements?

Grand_Admiral_Thrawn Posted September 22, 2004 Author Share Posted September 22, 2004 ADJ: Sure, I'll set one up some time tonight (It's 4:40 now, so around 7:00). It won't be dedicated, so there may be some lag, but my IP is pretty good, so it shouldn't be too bad. SM: How realistic it is depends. If you go for the one-shot-kill blasters you see in the movies, not realistic. I prefer the sort of combat Zahn depicted in his last novel, where Stormtrooper armor can take a beating. The vehicles are pretty evenly matched, and not too difficult to handle. The fighters aren't like in other games ofthis type. You pres spacebar to activate your repulsors, and then fly as if you were walking, only with a z-axis. The system req's are earlier in this thread. It's really not that demanding. My only qualm is with the heroes. They are invulnerable and Jedi to boot. A veritable pain in the butt. History is on the move, Captain. Those who cannot keep up with it will be left behind, to watch from a distance. And those who stand in our way will not watch at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADarkJedi44 Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 The heros aren't invulnerabe, but they are hard to stop. Heros can be turned on and off anyways....Dark Troopers Own! Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand_Admiral_Thrawn Posted September 22, 2004 Author Share Posted September 22, 2004 I fought agains Luke in one battle. Unless you have a lot of grenades or a vehicle (or rocket launcher) he just deflects your shots away. I tend to keep them off anyhow. There are some aspects of the Dark Trooper that I like, but the fact that their weapons are so innaccurate, I tend to avoid using them. I prefer the standard troopers for all factions, or the droideka for the CIS. History is on the move, Captain. Those who cannot keep up with it will be left behind, to watch from a distance.

ADarkJedi44 Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 Something about flying across half the map in 5 seconds appeals to me....Well you can't take on a hero alone! I was just saying they weren't invulnerable... Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand_Admiral_Thrawn Posted September 22, 2004 Author Share Posted September 22, 2004 I'm starting up a server if there is anyone who has the game and wants to play. I'll name it [sPAM] Clan Server. I'll try and put a balance of Clone Wars and Civil War maps. History is on the move, Captain. Those who cannot keep up with it will be left behind, to watch from a distance.

ADarkJedi44 Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 I'll be there Thrawn. ETA, 10 minutes. Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand_Admiral_Thrawn Posted September 22, 2004 Author Share Posted September 22, 2004 Didn't see you there, unless you name was AnimalMother . I don't have the server up right now. When we get everyone it'll be great. If you check the leader board on the Battlefront website, you'll see that I'm number 20 under the Republic Clone Army with 60 kills (which I got in a single game). I dream of the day when the top ten all read [sPAM] . History is on the move, Captain. Those who cannot keep up with it will be left behind, to watch from a distance.

Grand_Admiral_Thrawn Posted September 23, 2004 Author Share Posted September 23, 2004 I can put it back up right now. I need to make it onto the overall top 100.

Grand_Admiral_Thrawn Posted September 23, 2004 Author Share Posted September 23, 2004 (edited) Still didn't see you there. I had some one named Tysus in the game. We'll need more humans since most ofthe server is populated by bots. EDIT:I just took a look on the Battlefront leaderboard again. Under my stats it says I have over 200 kills, but on the board listings it only has 88. Not sure why.... Edited September 23, 2004 by Grand_Admiral_Thrawn History is on the move, Captain.

Grand_Admiral_Thrawn Posted September 23, 2004 Author Share Posted September 23, 2004 Hmmm, I'll set up a server with a name that there's no way you can miss.

Grand_Admiral_Thrawn Posted September 23, 2004 Author Share Posted September 23, 2004 I think you found the server that time. Not sure what happened to you when the level changed. I can't wait until the whole clan is there. We'll have to see what we can do tomorow. History is on the move, Captain. Those who cannot keep up with it will be left behind, to watch from a distance.

ADarkJedi44 Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 I got there once or twice, but when the level changed I couldn't get back on...until the end of the next level. *grumble grumble*Wth...Anyways, I think I'll create the server next time?
