Questions for live chat

[Lytyr]

1. Will the Death Star's destruction be a victory condition in multiplayer? If so, can it be disabled?

 

2. Can players access and use the galactic map while managing combat on a space or ground level?

 

3. When can we expect a fully official review with more information and units and stuff then we've had so far?

 

4. What will be on Wayland! Tell me now!!!

[Teradyn_pff]

Erm, slipping away from topic there.

 

"Stay on target!"

 

25. Can you explain how the two different types of shields for ground defense will interact with each other? Like can they overlap, do you have a choice as to where to put them, etc. ?

 

26. How can the rebels sabotage an instalation if you are pulled into a space battle the minute they show up in an enemy guarded system?

 

27. Is there a limit to how many simultaneous space and/or ground battles that can be occuring at once? (this question is designed to garner answer to this plus the question of whether or not we can have simultaneous battles at all)

1) Is there a Ladder of some sort ? I read in one of those magazines that there would be a tournament thing.

 

2) Can you have teams in Skirmish or will it be free for all or both options ?

3) Can you have AI players in multiplayer games?

4) Can you create custom teams in skirmish/multiplayer ie rebels + imp vs imp + imp ?

[Zer_Teron]

When you retreat from a Space Battle, will you be able to choose where you go or will you automatically go to the closest base of yours?

[Teradyn_pff]

Ah, I thought of another three:

 

28. If you attack a system and win the space battle, but do not proceed to attack the ground, just blockade, can the enemy continue to fire on your ships if they have planetary batteries operational?

 

29. Can you build multiple planetary ION or Turbolaser cannons, or are you restricted to a certain amount?

 

30. Do heros have their powers when you obtain them, or do they have to accumulate experience points (for lack of a better term) to upgrade like in Warcraft III?

 

Please continue to add more thoughtful questions for the chat and for possibly a kind answer post by Delphi-PG.

[Grand Admiral Thrawn 889]

when were the imps will we have to build the DS and when s the information being released about atleast some of the units?

[Garbageben]

Early in development you guys said you were "considering" putting in the ability for the user to name their capital ships. Have you come to a definite decision on this and if so (and you can tell us), what is it?

[DarthMaulUK]

I wouldnt worry about the wording. Im used to having to edit questions sometimes.

 

Thanks for all your questions, I will be spending tomorrow having a good look through them and then I will post the lucky ones in this thread.

[Teradyn_pff]

DarthMaulUK, got your list yet?

[Nevets]

make sure to ask some questions about hero immortality, I would right out some thoughtful answers, but sadly all my thoughfulness is being used on studying for my microbiology exam.

[DarthMaulUK]

I will post the questions shortly. Ive been pretty ill with a cold, in addition to my glandular fever so i havent had much energy this week.

 

But i will get it sorted today. So many questions to look through!

Do what I do and just don't go to your class(I'm skipping my chemistry lecture borrriiiiiing).

Get better DMUK

[Teradyn_pff]

I hope you get to feeling better, I am on the last day of my antibiotics for my own bronchitis myself.

 

Was wondering, however, when you would get those questions posted? The chat is only a few hours from now.

 

Also, it looks like we will still not get our interview questions answered in time again.

[DarthMaulUK]

Here are the ones I will be asking from here

 

Sparky

You mentioned that it will be hard for either side to know where the enemy is...but can't you/opponent just

look at the galactic map and see where the enemy planets are? Is it possible for planets to support the other side in secret?

and will the game allow smuggling?

 

Teradyn

Can you describe how orbital bombardment will be handled? Do we direct fire down from capital ships based on their power, ISD massive (and/or frequent)

with smaller ships providing weaker/less often barrages. What would prevent a sufficiently large orbiting fleet from being able to decimate the defending

forces without the attacking ground forces having to be involved in the battle?

 

FoshJedi2004

Are there set Fleet Formations that we can set the fleets to?? EG: Flanking/Hammer and Anvil

Grd Admiral Thrawn 889

when can we expect unit information being released?

 

DMUK

[Nevets]

can't wait to here from the chat, can't make it, have to make the hour and half trip back home from college during the chat.

 

Things I most hope to learn from chat:

 

Why hero immortality?

 

Why did they stop the timeline at ANH?

 

More creature info.

[AT-AP]

As always:

 

Will there be AT-TE, UT-AT, AT-OT or AT-HEs in the game?

[The Relentless]

I still wont get an answer to my minimum requirements question? http://vaderno.ytmnd.com/

[Garbageben]

I'm going to watch the chat and maybe ask some things, but I am basically going for answers and see what they say to the obvious questions most people have.

[AT-AP]

There will be a continuous update on the forum as the answers pile on, right? For those who can't make it?

[Foshjedi2004]

DarthMaulUK will be posting a Transcript after the event.

[AT-AP]

Ah, I see.
