LOL the game is not even out yet, how can it have a design flaw already? This is no flaw, there are 43 planets as you exapand if you get swolloed by xwings you suck period, make some anti fighter ships leave them with your startbase's and bam they wasted a ton of credits. Not to even mention to spam xwings you have to have a strong econ and that is gona be middle to late game by then your opent has enough ships+ base's etc.. to hold you off, if he does not then again he sucks and already lost anyway.

Diplomacy Persistant Damage would be nice but something i can live without Unit experience oh god yes. Would also like to see tank ATST suqads stay linked as squads when they hit the ground and not become single units. something i do not wish to see is a free or more base building, this is something BFME2 has done and i wont be buying the game as i much more enjoyed the limted building in bfme1.

alot of people are forgetting something. The empire was always about numbers and brute strengh, to add anti fighter weapons to ISD they would have to 1- make them bigger and more costly to keep the current payload on them or 2- cut off some ion/turbolasers to make room for anti fighters.that is something the empire ( should say emporer) did not belive in.

in the full game we have been told we can chose what ships start the battle.

you cant, best thing to do is to list what mod and version your using plus what planet it is, and what buildings if you can, so they can fix it.

Sounds like your the one stuck on 3D lol. HW 3D map system sucks for most gamers plain and simple or the game would have a much larger fan base and we would see that moddle used in other space games.( thats been said before)

Xenomorphine sevral things, one the troops with vader in ep4 where the elite storm troopers the best of the best and thats why they took the ship so easy, not ALL troopers where that good. Also the rebels did not hide and do hit and runs because of weak personal, they did it cause of weaker ships, but more important weaker numbers, the empire had millions of troops while the rebels probly less then 50k to start.

I am just so glad people who truly like the "scaling" to be life like are so small in the game market that most devs ignore them.

there first major victory not there first ever victory there is a difrence. No one has given ANY proof that either side should be more powerfull, everyone is giving there own opinion on what they feel nothing more, the only proof we have is the rebels won the war and restored the republic.

So one battle means they are better? i mean serious your saying just ebcause they have that 1 win that it makes them sooo much better then the rebel troopers?

Said this in another thread and will say it again, HW space map system sucked IMO and to many others that is why HW was always a small niche title for loyal fans it was never a huge hit like EAW might become. And as delphi said in the other thread, if the HW system is so good why is not being used by other companys?

i am glad its not like hw lol hated that games map system , and no matter how much a small% of people wan that it wont happen, hw games are not huge hits there niche market games and had a loyal following of fans. Only thing about the space battles i dislike is there speed, i want the ships to take ALOT longer to die, i wana see the battles rage on for a good bit of time not be over in minutes.

god the mods for this game are gona rock, Gundam is awsome own all the series on dvd almost plus i love BT and SG as well

hmm seems stations are bugged once they lose all hardpoints only xwings will keep firing at them, if you run out of xwings the battle never ends.

Did you tweak unit stats at all? maybe i just got unlucky by 7 tiefighter squads defeated 4 xwing lol.

i love you! any known bugs we should look out for?

i still cant belive people are talking about realism in a FAKE world, get a clue guys realism in a made up world with fake made up units is left up to the creators of said world NOT the fans who belive they know what is real and what is not.

Well hury up and finish your complete mod Althought i did just download your 1.5 version gona test it out now

oh oh oh hury up and upload it and i will be your slave for life!

that mean planet battles too? or just all of the planets for space battles?

raid fleets and c3po/rd2 are not in the GC in the Demo only the tuts

LOL EAW is not dumbed down its just difrent and focus on difrent areas something people are not used to so they wish to reject it, just like people wanted to reject wow faster lvling curve and nmo death punishment. Also lordstorm if you really think wc3 is complicated you should try kohan1 it puts wc3 to shame, IMO and i do own wc3 and wcft both are so stupid its not even funny neither game is hard or complicated you mass a army you make a hero and you "rush" omg you rush to win who would have thought it was all about rushing! Me and friend where in the top 20 for the first 3 months the game came out and we got bored and went back to kohan but hey what do i know i just found wc3 to be very simple and easy. one unit normal is all you ever need to make with your hero to win try that in EAW and see how far you get

Not discount luck at all, what i am saying is a D20 is to much luck based in a RTS to work right.You could have a fleet of neb b's beat a fleet of ISD because of bad rolls for the ISD. planet loyalty while was key in the REAL starwars world its not needed in a rts, i found it a joke in rebellion i take over a system then just sent in heros to max loyalty and never ever faced a rebellion on one of my planets it was just a unwanted micro need i did not care for one bit.I am glad it has been removed for EAW. I have read just about every starwars book played every single starwars game fps rts and rpg's, i own all 6 movies and the cartoon series so i have plenty of knowledge of the era, and still see no reason for those features.

First off they did not send every storm trooper thru that academy it was for officer training not basic soldiers, Second they where not better shots, sure some might have been just like some rebels might have been better then stormtroopers, armor means squat 1 hit kills a trooper in that whitearmor just like 1 hit without the movies showed this and how where they smarter? they where programed and did not really think for themselfs so could not alter plans on the go because they always followed orders no matter what LOL had something better to fight for? they didnt fight for anything they where man made to follow orders they didnt give a ratsass what they fought for, while the rebels fought for freedom. If the stormtroopers where really as good as you think and had the best training etc.. then how in the world did they ever lose the war?

First a D20RPG system would not make a RTS better, it adds to much luck into a RTS rather then skill, i mean someone getting a roll of below 5 times in a row compared to someone getting lucky and rolling 20 3 out of 5 is pure luck and has no place in rts. The entire wargamer community is not on your side, nor are gamers experts in what real strategy and tactics are. I found your problem you wanted rebellion 2, well sorry but this is not it, nor was it ever said to be it.Even rebellion had 0 base building and all ground combat was simulated. The only features this miss's over rebellion is are extra heros extra ships diplomacy and planet loyalty the extra ops are still there just difrent now, we have smuglers and bounty hunters. Your seriously remind me of the fans who hated wow, they felt it was to easy and too difrent then standard MMO's and changed in the wrong way, they claimed it would only sell well cause of the blizzard name (same as you saying this will sell cause of starwars name) yet a year later WoW has become the biggest world wide MMO and it is still growing. EAW has the same potenial as WoW because it removed all the stuff most gamers hate and made the game FUN and as such i see it being a huge hit, i am sorry the game let you down and maybe the game is not for you.
