Eduardo Posted November 13, 2005 Posted November 13, 2005 I don't think so But it would be great to have it in the game! School Wars!!! Command your Forces! Crush the School!!!
Delphi-PG Posted November 13, 2005 Posted November 13, 2005 will ships have tractor beams? "Jabba Laugh..." Why would you want to use a TB to trap an innocent corvette from escaping? I mean, how cool would that be. "jabba laugh..." Delphi-PGGame Designer/Community Rephttp://www.petroglyphgames.com
Eduardo Posted November 13, 2005 Posted November 13, 2005 well, I think you're right, and besides, if we can stop them from going to hyper space, then it's almost the same, the only difference is that we have to destroy that ship, wich is fun Also, what would we do with an trapped rebel ship?...soooo, this means that we won't be able to "capture" enemy ships, cause' it's the same... School Wars!!! Command your Forces! Crush the School!!!
Garbageben Posted November 13, 2005 Posted November 13, 2005 Why would you want to use a TB to trap an innocent corvette from escaping?If you were a cruel commander you could trap the last corvette in your tractor beam and then destroy it at your leisure. First shoot off all their weapons and their comm array. Then you can decide how you want to procede from there. http://miniprofile.xfire.com/bg/sh/type/0/garbageben.png
Ghostly_Substance Posted November 13, 2005 Posted November 13, 2005 Let it sit there disabelled for 20 minutes while you go watch tv then get a squadron of Tie Fighters to attack the corvette. (fictional part of the game) Watch the lonely thing crack under the pressure and use its escape pods to drop down to the planet only to be caught by your stormtroopers. Someone else would torture the units. -One Empire falls another riseshttp://myanimelist.net/signature/EuroSubstance.png http://miniprofile.xfire.com/bg/os/type/2/ghostlysubstance.png

Darkmark Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 Let's try to put some restraint on putting salt on the developers in future, 'kay? Delphi's comment is a bit mysterious though. I think I remember somewhere there was a mention of tractor beams, and it was suggested they were in. I don't know where though, and I don't think it was Delphi. I'll have a look for it though.

Mooff Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 i'll use the linux way of explaining it -_- of course they are in ... if you mod them in - you can mod everything in you want to have, it's easy modable through xml files :P
Admrial Joyce Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 If they are in the game just think of the tactics you could use. For example you could fling debris in to enemy ships. http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/4305/cap2073na.pngTime to do some damage.
Swiftdraw Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 I doubt you could micro-manage a ships systems like that. It'll most likey be used to capture disabled ships (like from ion cannon attacks) and you could interogate the crew and/or capture hero ships. I'm now teh lurker.http://miniprofile.xfire.com/bg/bg/type/2/swiftdraw.png

I'm trying to think, but nothing happens-Curly Anywho...Delphi or Jabba was being phasecious(butchered that one) kind of like sarcasm. Darth Vader's ship uses a tractor beam on the Tantive IV, an innocent corvette, which was fun--sooooooooooo......It's in! Protecting the world from those who have an IQ higher than 30! Huzzah!

Juggernaut1985 Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 Tractor beams will be a good tool in combat. "Starboard tractor crews, lock onto the assault Frigare and bring it in close." Thrawn is the man.
Foshjedi2004 Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 Or creating a Cloaked Asteroid armada that attacks a Rebel planet?? Again a Thrawn Tactic http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa197/knivesdamaster/tags/sith_omguserbar_member.jpg
Deadeye31_pff Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 on the subject of A-wings having missiles: I believe they, and all rebel fighters, will have missiles. They have missiles in all the movies, they should have missiles here.

They have missiles in all the movies, they should have missiles here. I also think i say a Photon Torpedo in the most recent trailer coming from an x-wing, but i could not pause it to view better.
Megajames Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 Photon Torpedo? Nice spelling of proton torpedo. Any way there are some missiles coming from the X-wing's and, in one of the trailers TIE'S are firing some sort of misile or high energy wepon. Evacuate, in our moment of triumph. I think you overestimate their chances. Please can you post a comment on My clone story, in fan fiction. http://pff.swrebellion.com/index.php?topic=2306.0 (\_/)(O.O)(> <) This is Bunny.

Foshjedi2004 Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 JFYI TIE Fighters never have Torpedos unless they are reconfigured into TIE/b fighters. http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa197/knivesdamaster/tags/sith_omguserbar_member.jpg
Megajames Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 I know that, but nomaly tie fire out long beams, but in a video they fire a line of green spheres at a cap ship.

Dorkthehunter Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 That is also footage from the original trailer that they put in the new one, so they have probably advanced and fixed it by now, hopefully......
