Population in this site

[zxzxi]

About what time or just plain when are a lot of people on in one time?

[Darth_Officer]

i would say for me about 9-11 PM Eastern time USA

 

[zxzxi]

so at this time. Well that isn't a lot of people. If only I knew my sister owned this game years ago when it was still very popular.

[zxzxi]

Oh wait for you. Never mined then

[Guest Scathane]

What's your point, zxzxi?

[Darth_Officer]

i would say people come into this site to check posts in the forum for anything interesting. there are no new downloads lately. remember, all games have a lifespan. rebellion is amazing that since 1998 when it was released there is actually a website still hosting it's content.

 

I really wish Lucas Arts would release the SOURCE CODE to rebellion like so many other game companies do. What the hell do they need it for anymore?

[Mad78]

To make money

[BadSamaritan]

Lucas is a tightwad, everyone knows that.

[Guest Scathane]

Why would you say that?

[Guest JediIgor]

Because they haven't released the source for anything? Besides, why would we need it now? It's kind of outdated and I doubt they programmed it to be extensible or we'd have seen some expansions out.

Hmm, but if we had the sourcecode, we would be able to even turn it into a podracer game, eh ?

With the source most of their old limitations would be meaningless, IMHO.

Two extremely valid points! Therefore I dedicate This picture of a well-known pop singer with a pancake on her head.

 

The first is the most obviously overlooked bit of mis-marketing by that mob at Lucasarts. There are still loads of us who still love and play the game, however frequently or infrequently as the case may be. Why is this? What ingrediant has Rebellion got to stretch out it's life span so much when the game engine is so obviously dated? Is it anything to do with the game engine, but the shear concept of the game?

 

The second point shows how crap depending on Lucasarts and the entire Star Wars franchise can be! Yes, why are they sitting on a title no longer commercially available, supported by only by one update, that only this website quite frankly has kept going with Revolution's editor. Corporate arrogance perhaps, I can think of absolutely no harm commercially for the public release of the game's source code. Perhaps they think they're something big*

 

 

 

 

*Lucasarts may actually be something quite big.

Totally agree guys, they have'nt even had the balls to re-release on a budget label through some middleman. Remember of course they are business people with no love for anything but the bottom line

[Mad78]

I actually got mine on a budget label

[Imperator2]

Wow!!!

I did not know that !!!! I'm pretty sure it was'nt released on a budget label in the UK though ( prepares himself to be told otherwise )

[Mad78]

I got mine with the label. Lucasarts collection and it came with Force Commander.

Gosh! A fellow British person! Where abouts do you hail from and lurk dude? I'm North London, waste time working central London, and chase my cat back in North London.
