I liked they way the armies are built, its a nice change of pace. When the first said that there would be no base building, i really didn't like the idea, but i think it worked out well. Of course there are some aspects that i would have liked to have seen, like the ability to place turrets and such where i like. I have played several RTS games where on some missions you started out with a prefabricated base and the places where the turrets were i thought were just stupid. Two features that would be nice to see, is planetary upgrades, i know there are some but the ones i would like to see are ground space upgrades, the ability to add more slots for building and troops on a planet would greatly reduce the worry of the enemy landing wave upon wave at you, when you have no ability to call for reinforcements. This upgrades wouldn't be cheap, but allow up 8 more ground spaces for troops, 10,000+ credits for the first two and the price doubles for each after upgrade after that, this way you couldn't do it to all your planets except for the important ones. I like the ability to steal technology, but i just hope that this isn't the only way rebels acquire new units, some form of research would be nice, remember the Rebels didn't steal the Mon Cals from the imps ;D. The minor heroes are a nice touch, just a short question, when the rebels are smuggling credits does the empire know automatically or does it take a while for them to find out or do the need a commander stationed there? And just a few small pet peeves: when i started playing the demo late last night that credit symbol look a lot like a seven, but then again a lot things look like sevens at 3:30 in the morning, and i don't understand why it was added there is only one form of money so there is no real need to tell us that it takes credits. Otherwise a very good game, its hard to give a lot of constructive criticism with the small amount of playable content. Sparky

The Game freezes on Startup, it just sits at the Empire at War Demo screen, till i Ctrl Alt Delete. This happening to anybody else?

Surpised no one tryed Lucasarts.com http://www.lucasarts.com is 72% evil, 28% good Unfortunately Petroglyph didn't do much better http://www.petroglyphgames.com/ is 51% evil, 49% good

I can see those in the Campaign mode...but what about Conquest or mulitiplayer Conquest...no one is going to want to do those missions when they're playing online, which makes me think that in Conquest there won't be any neutral planets or you just need to garrison troops on them

its talking about the demo...hopefully this is a sign that it will be out sooner rather then later

well I'm sure that the tornado will kill ground troops...but rain and such will prolly just effect speed, accuracy..etc etc.

well that depends on what the rest of you computer system...is it a newer system, then go with the 7800 just make sure you have a decent power supply, if its an older system, and you don't have a 8x AGP go with the 6600...the 7800 will cause to much of a bottleneck effect, and you'll never get graphics as good as the claim, though chances are you prolly wouldn't notice it much. Personally i would go with just a regular 6600 rather then the GT, considering that one can get a 6600 256 DDR cheaper then a 6600GT 128 DDR. Another thing to consider if have one, use PCI-Express, buy a card that uses it cause unless they come out with a faster AGP slot...look to see less and less of AGP Cards

Don't hold your breathe...Blizzard created their own because they planned to produced more than just one game that uses it, same way with steam. There's no point in creating your own system if you are going to only use for 1 game. Plus how long do you want to wait for this game? They do this it will push the game back another 3 months.

Sweet, four people down only 368 users left.

I think i read somewhere that you don't necessarly have to invade the planet

I have to much damn homework and online exams(who makes a final exam due on a Saturday Night?) for college to get to go out on a Saturday night. So i'm taking a small break... Your list of favorite Movie Triliogies or series, whether the series is complete or not? *small rule...series must have at three out or two out and the third to be officially released. My list: *in no particular order LOTR: Great series, they didn't go all new age or try to americanize it, they followed the book very close, although the Extended versions are better then the Theatrical versions Indiana Jones: whips, WWII, whats not to like...though the second was prolly the worst of the three Star Wars: The origianl version was the best, the special editions added nice graphics, the pretrilogy only had one good movie, but the OT on DVDs - Burn it James Bond: with 21 out there your bound to like some of them, but the best were the ones with Sean Connery Star Trek: Though the Evens ones are the better ones X-men: With Wolverine whats not to like, hopefully third won't be as bad as it rummored Spider-man: generally speeking one of the better super-hero movies, though the third will be great. Honourably Mentions: The Matrix:Great concept but the one was not as good as it could have been Hopefulls: *not yet trilogies, but planned The new Batman series, Underworld, The new Superman

Well take comfort in knowing that the official FAQ, Gameplay FAQ, and Official Unit List is somewhere around the corner. And hopefully they will come out with another Diary. And if you think about it, if you ran the company would you want to advertise info about a new game when you had a game the just came out...why would you want to put a reason in someone's head not to buy the game so the could wait to buy this one...

I believed they said that any ship or unit that survives the battle will be fully healed after the battle.

Its a Bar....what do you expect from a room full of drunk star wars fans?

It also has to go through LEC so don't hold your breathe...wouldn't surprise me if they were deliberately holding out

Simple answer: you eat eggs for breakfeast and chicken for lunch or Dinner

Wow...i post a simple question...15 minutes later the thead is locked...thats got to be a record...lol

What exactly goes on behind the Maw Installation's lock doors?...What possible information goes in there that can't be seen by the rest of our eyes....hey...your not keeping that interview lock up there... lol....

Quick...everyone create mutilple accounts...we could be up to 600 in no time...

Hopefully the will do something like X-Wing Vs Tie Fighter...they had a multiplayer disc included with the game.

Think of bacta as the artifical version of kolto

Most heros should not respawn once they're dead they should stay dead with the exception of the Jedi, although the chances are slim it would be in the game it would be nice to see the ability for a dead jedi to respawn as a force ghost. Sparky

If you don't have quick time for what ever reason IGN.com has the video which you can download or stream it. Sparky

hey frosh what program do you use to get the screen shot of the trailor...or did you just pause it and it the Print Screen button on the keyboard? Sparky

Has to be a hero unit...it couldn't exist given the timeline, if it is a hero unit then Vadar, Han, Chewie can effect more thean just the ground battles....good trailer though Sparky
