Who has Played the Demo?

[EJMM]

Well, now that the Demo is out, we can hear the reactions of the players, sooo... Tell me if you like it , I can't play the demoo yet , Don't have a Video card, but late this month i'll have it, sooo do you like the game?!?

[Vader89]

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

Enjoy

I've played... Not for two long (two or three of the tutorials)...

 

I'll pass judgement later.

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.

ya i love the demo, and yes ive played it this game rules.

[Mistrider]

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.

I love how they use the same symbol for a battle (two lightsabers) as Rebellion.

 

quite cool.

 

(could be a coincidence, but still cool)

[Darth Tyrant]

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.

Hay guys, how do you deffet the station? i get ll teh hard points except the supply bay and have no idea how to destry that. I was litereally siting at my PC with teh fame at 2x speed and sat for half an hour before i gave up.

[Ghostly_Substance]

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

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 have just downloaded it AT LAST

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 .

How the heck did you manage to get those?

[Megajames]

?, there rno mon cals or a wings

[Teradyn_pff]

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.....

[Zer_Teron]

Semi-LOL

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.
