Amazingonion Posted November 17, 2005 Posted November 17, 2005 I was just thinking about the demo in December, being excited and all. But then I asked myself "How do you make a Demo of a game like this?". The game is persistent, right? So then what would they do? Let you play up to a certain level in the tech. tree? Fight one or two sample battles? If anyone has any thoughts on this, feel free to express them. No flaming please. "General Veers, prepare your pants for a surface assault." --Vader
Admrial Joyce Posted November 17, 2005 Posted November 17, 2005 The demo would have toturial to let you know how to play. It would have a part of the campain and have a skirmish map. It would let you fight some battles leaving you wanting more. http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/4305/cap2073na.pngTime to do some damage.

CommandoGamer Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 Please Dont talk about the Demo i am already Dying for it after watching Star Wars 3 i was wondering How Will The Game Look-likeand of course i was learning some Moves when watching
Megajames Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 The demo will probebly let you play as both teams and you will play one battle, first in space then on the ground, you will also probebly be able to chose if your attacking or defending. Evacuate, in our moment of triumph. I think you overestimate their chances.

Just did a search and there was one sort of on this, but more on the date of the demo and what we know, not how they'll do it. But that was from October...

Jmaster3265 Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 Not really, and someone used that before, i can prove it i'd have to look for the thread though. http://img74.imageshack.us/img74/1135/jmaster3265signew13rd.jpg
Popcorn2008 Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 Not really, and someone used that before, i can prove it i'd have to look for the thread though.Still harsh...

Jmaster3265 Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 Ok, so it's harsh when i do it and not when the other guy did it right? Oh ok.... http://img74.imageshack.us/img74/1135/jmaster3265signew13rd.jpg

Zer_Teron Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 FOCOM Sickness, play one skirmish and your guaranteed to forget about your EAW Sickness and concentrate on your Vomit Inducing FOCOM sickness. FOCOM = Force Commander. for those who dont know http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/3488/zersigef1.jpg

Garbageben Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 Well I can see that I am in the minority of those who thought Force Commander was actually a decent game (I didn't say great). I still play it from time to time and find it preferable to SWGB. Not saying Focom is perfect, just that it's an ok game. http://miniprofile.xfire.com/bg/sh/type/0/garbageben.png
Zer_Teron Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 I liked FOCOM, but Skirmish mode absolutly sucks, Campaign is the only mode worth playing. http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/3488/zersigef1.jpg

lordstorm88 Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 a couple of skirmishes in my opinion, otherwise they'll be giving out too much I think

Infinite_Xero Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 Might be like the Rome: Total War demo, a historic battle and a tutorial. or just 1 maybe 2 skirmish maps with some basic units (and you can play either Rebels of Imperials) and a tutorial. Either way, the demo is a christmas present i'm really looking forward to EDIT: @ Foshjedi2004already done & thanks for the welcome The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese!

Vader89 Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 Yeah i agree with what alot of the guys here are saying: a few good battles enough to make you want much more, so we all have to suffer for another 2 months... lol http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e144/theairsniper/TAS-Userbar.jpghttp://miniprofile.xfire.com/bg/bg/type/2/Sharpshooter89720.pngYou Don't Know the Power of the Dark Side!Click for an EaW Countdown Timer!
