I cant play it well, cause i still have 56k, i must be the only person in the world, and the phone company doesnt look like they are going to put new lines in for DSL for a while (even though they said it was supposed to be done months ago :(

 

How is it to those who have played?  My one friend is downloading it now.

 

Anybody wanna mail me a CD of it?  lol

Even tho its a demo and its short its still fun. I liked how everything is layed out such as once you send a probe to a planet its discovered and you see whats there. Nice slots for spies and smugglers and also a raid slot.

 

I got confused with the raid slot. Do your forces have to be there already since I didn't notice any Rebels there during tutorial.

I love the demo, it rocks.

 

I've played for about an hour and a half, did all the tutorials and I've played the GC somewhat. The space battle is fun as hell(done it 3 times, got owned the first time, won the second and third). But I have yet to get the hang of the land battle, only tried it once, and it was WAY too hectic. I'll be sure to try it some more tomorrow when I have the time.

Oh man, the demo is awesom. The graphics are amazing, the gameplay ronks, the units, the heros, hell, every single detail was done very nice. Its short, but it leaves you wanting more and more. I can't wait for Feb 16. This is going to be the best Star Wars game ever, since Kotor 1.

I love the space battle.  I have done it in som many different ways.  Attack from different sides and what forces I use.

1.  Only used X-wings and Y-wings.

2.  Four or five frigates with some x-wings and y-wings.

3. Combo of everything.

4. Two frigates, four or five corvettes, and the rest starfighters.

5.  So many more.

I kept finding different ways of fighting this battle.

 

Land is the same way, so many walls to approach an attack.

I must not fear

Fear is the mind-killer

Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration

I will face my fear

I will permit it to pass over me and through me

And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path

Where the fear has gone there will be nothing

Only I will remain

I also liked doing the space battle with 4 Mon Calamari Cruisers, 2 Assault Frigates, and an A-Wing.

 

You have to be careful with the large ships and bombers, they have very few hard points vs a realistic model (something I will be looking into fixing maybe).  You can have a Mon Calamari taken out pretty easily if you don't watch out.

 

The A-Wing has a very cool ability that "taunts" enemy fighters to attack it.  I can see a string of these leading enemy fighters away into a nasty ambush before your enemy can react and save their stupid selves :).

If you look in the Games & Mods forums you can see some more examples of people changing things.  AoErat gave himself a Death Star for the rebellion and blew up Tatooine in the Demo Campaign :).  Look here:

There aren't any other maps, so there isn't much you can do asides from unlock the planets on the galaxy map, and mess with units. For example, I blew up Tatooine, got an AT-AT (not captured by Chewie), Star Destroyer, (a few for each side on the asteroid map), Mon Cal Cruiser, and some A-Wings, among other things.

I wish the demo'd give you more to do.... Well, I guess I'll start waiting for the "Company of Heroes" demo.

EaW looks like Force Commander meets AOE III meets RA2. With an emphasis on Master of Orion.....

Have to destroy everything and even on the capital ships then they go boom. Well thats what I noticed anyways.

 

Ya but i can not target the hanger or the supply bay. I can destroy the hanger but i can not do more then 2% damage to the supply bay and i left teh game running for an hour on 2X speed and came back and there was still only 2% damage.
