CTrooper1 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Ok lets say that i do build or somhow get the DS, well if i decide that i want to destroy a planet and do so what happens.. what i mean is what happens to the planet, does it just explode into literally nothing? or does it become an atseriod feild with a large amount of asteriods that you can use as a posible space base?

Hadoken13 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 as far as i know it becomes a useless asteroid feild that could maybe be used to bring in a few credits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eduardo Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 It becomes an asteroid field were actually you can crash and the asteroid field stay there for all the game, unless you start again School Wars!!!

Foshjedi2004 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 The System remains a planetary system in the fact that you can build shipyards etc in the system. You only lose the benefits that control of that system holds. http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa197/knivesdamaster/tags/sith_omguserbar_member.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Moff Joyce Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 What everyone else has said. Anyway i have thought of a tactic. You could destroy a plant which is between your planet and an enermy planet thus slowing down there attack times on your planet. The new age of the Empire has come!

The asteroid field that will be present will not actually come in to play in the galactic mode and unless you have units or a base there, they will probably not even drop out of galactic mode while moving through.

Darkmark Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 There's also the shorter IGN/Gamespy one which is old, but focuses spcifically on the space battle and death star use. Shows pretty much the same thing DS wise, and won't take hours to download on slower connections. http://media.pc.ign.com/media/713/713904/vids_1.html "And the moral of the story is: Appreciate what you've got, because basically; I'm fantastic." ~ Holly, Red Dwarfhttp://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y143/Lord_Darkmark/Forcedbanner01.jpghttp://www.starwarsforced.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Moff Joyce Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 One thing i have notiecd though. In one of the trailers the blast from the planet hits the DS. Did the DS take any damage? The new age of the Empire has come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teradyn_pff Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 One thing i have notiecd though. In one of the trailers the blast from the planet his the DS. Did the DS take any damage? What you are referring to is the blast wave that passes through the Death Star and incedentally, the entire fleet between the Death Star and the planet. Petro has already acknowledged that there is an issue there, so hopefully there will be some reprocussion. As of now, though, it doesn't appear that anything was hurt by the blast.

JanGaarni Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 The shields of the Death Star is adequete to fully protect it from the blast. http://www.lfnetwork.com/images/lfnlinker.gifStar Wars: Empire at War.Net Moderator&SWGalaxies Moderator Co-Leader of The Affiliates! -A-- What we do in life, echoes in eternity!- May the pants be with you!

Teradyn_pff Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 The shields of the Death Star is adequete to fully protect it from the blast. Correct, but the graphic is very blah, it is a collision between the explosion ring graphic and the DS model that is not handled or even acknowledged by the engine in that video. And the issue of the fleet that was closer to the planet than the DS from what I could tell has still not been dealt with. The small fighters (tie fighters especially) should not have survived.

JanGaarni Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Shield comment was just for tecnical responce. As for the ring, to me it looks like it's passing just under the Death Star. I don't know, poor quality on the videos really. http://www.lfnetwork.com/images/lfnlinker.gifStar Wars: Empire at War.Net Moderator&SWGalaxies Moderator Co-Leader of The Affiliates! -A-- What we do in life, echoes in eternity!- May the pants be with you!

What it is damaged or in a DS:II to state? Surly it would take some damage. Also the DS seems a bit to close to the planet. Also in the trailer featuring it we saw a space battle going on. Wouldent the shockwave destroy them? The new age of the Empire has come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanGaarni Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 I'll reiterate: the shields on the Death Star is more than powerfull enough to protect it against a blown up planet. Otherwise, why build it if it can't take the heat? http://www.lfnetwork.com/images/lfnlinker.gifStar Wars: Empire at War.Net Moderator&SWGalaxies Moderator Co-Leader of The Affiliates! -A-- What we do in life, echoes in eternity!- May the pants be with you!

Grand Moff Joyce Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Otherwise, why build it if it can't take the heat? Well in the films the DS was a fair distance so when the shockwave hit them it was extremly weak but from the trailer it was very close to the planet. Almost in orbit you could say.

Teradyn_pff Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 One of the questions I would like to see answered is how the death star interacts with the environment. You can't have something that big close to the planet without tidal waves, etc. There should be some minimum distance that the DS has to stay away.
