Go Greg! Thanks for posting again after a while, man. We realize that working on a game alone (right?) is a difficult task. Maybe along the way you will find some people to help you out. The game will be ready when it's ready; I think we are all mature enough to realize that (though I am not certain). We also understand that it may not ever be ready. On the bright side, the long period allows us to refine our lists of features we would like in the game. Thanks again for all your dedication.

Well I would rather have a multiplayer-only Rebellion 2 than no Rebellion 2. Perhaps if he doesn't know how to make good AI yet, he could release a version of the game and then send out a free upgrade to everyone if they request it.

Hmm. A while after I get a job, I'll forward the game to you if you want.

Yeah, that's a demo, although there are lots of things in the game you just have to unlock to play more. But you should try ordering it straight from LucasArts. Unlike most game companies, they still sell their classics.

Balance of Power is good, but my old video card isn't compatable with my new motherboard, so I am running video off the motherboard. That means no 3D acceleration, which in turn means no LucasArts games from the past 7 years. That and I lost the X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter CD, and I even had an original mislabeled disc. But Balance of Power is a great addition to X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter, especially if you have friends to play campaigns with you. Playing a mission on either side and in different craft is pretty fun, and all the missions are challenging. Of course, it's incredibly difficult to get the best ribbons for each mission, so it can keep you playing a long time.

I like the idea, definately. Nice one, Swarmer.

No, girlfriend and school keep me too busy to really do anything dedicated. I like to pop in and give suggestions and opinions here and there, though.

I think most of them probably just did that as a joke.

No matter which side you play as in Balance of Power, the Rebels escape with at least one Modified Strike Cruiser. In the raid mission you do near the end as an Imperial, one hyperspaces away before you can get to it (no matter if you dump all energy to engines). If you play as Rebels, everything turn hunky dory. The Rebels can reproduce the technology easily from a model, and they have it.

If everything happened as soon as you told it to, all the day's events wouldn't happen as soon as the clock turned a new day; some stuff would happen in the middle of the days.

Yeah, I think squads should be more expensive and more powerful/durable. Not more than one commander, though. That kinda takes away the point of commanding.

I hope that GPA will have many ways of playing, or at least the editor will allow you to make games that play differently.

Anatachi wa nani o hanashimasu ka?

Yeah, they were describing how Rebellion worked, not changes to make in Rebellion 2. And the only thing that can happen "mid-day" is bombardments.

Thanks. Hehe. How about the promotion ceremonies from X-Wing and TIE Fighter?

... or... is it...?

The problem with that idea is all construction ends at the beginning of a new day. Any battles initiated on that day will already include the newly-constructed ships as battles are in stopped time, so a new day won't break during one. I'm not sure 2 words counts as .5 of a language. I think I might know .4 or less Japanese and I've been at it for over a year.

Yeah, I know some. I have been taking classes and am now in my third (out of five).

I wouldn't have said it if it wasn't a lie... oh, wait; the other way around.

Hmm... I might go for it if it were "SLOOM!" instead.

I know some Japanese.

*Nods* *Nods* Splat, boom. That is the only way to go.

Dude... Miyamoto invented Mario, Zelda, etc., not Command and Conquer.

And oh yeah, I got promoted! Dig it, I'm not a Cadet anymore (Hell, I think I should have stopped being a Cadet months ago!).

Yeah, I just checked out the Rebellion Reloaded boards realy fast and they talk about replacing ships, converting models... nothing you would do with a brand new game. For the first instance, if the game is meant to be modded, there will be no ship limit (or a really high limit). Also, none of us know what format JediGreg is going to use for his game, so nobody knows if we need to convert it or what it needs to be converted to. So yeah, I think Rebellion Reloaded is a TC of Rebellion.
