they sayd there would be the propper sounds but the sounds from the atst main cammanon and the gunship laser beam and the droidstarfighter lasters are WRONG!
also the gunsip is supposed to shoot only 2 rockets for a techno union ship 2 crash and the droideka shoot 1 laser of each arm while its supposed to be 2 and i think they should add another class to the seperatists battledroid cause its stupid that they only have it in sp cause on the battle of geonosis there are lots of rebular battledroids and the pilot droid is duposed to be bleu and without a backpack.

I consider myself a softcore SW fan. :D I'm more into Jedi/Sith than anything else in SW, though.

And yeah, I know that comment was off topic as hell, but oh well. :D

I dont like the AT-ST laser sound. In the demo it sounded exactly like it does in the movie, then in the real thing they changed it. I don know why or if its a bug, but it annoys me lol.

droideka shoot 1 laser of each arm while its supposed to be 2
They do shoot 2 from each arm. They shoot 4 in total. Though it doesn't really help, they have horrible accuracy. The lasers should terminate inward, but they just go straight :/ So stupid. They should atleast be closer together so that if you shoot straight you won't shoot AROUND a body.

There's plenty of tiny flaws like that. The sounds, while I've noticed a few errors, don't bother me. I think an emendation to the lasers of the droideka would be good. (Two from each arm (no more firepower, just change the graphics) and have them hit where you shoot).
I was thinking about the battle droid, and it seems like a good idea to put them in, but there's really no need for them. They'd just be another assault class, which isn't necessary.
I think somehwere along the line the devs accidentally mixed up the demolitions droid and and pilot droid skins. Pilot droids are supposed to have blue markings, but they look like plain battle droids with backpacks, and the demolitons guys have the blue. It's make more sense to switch them.

But I'm glad that these kind of things are the issues that I notice, as oppsed to the game sucking in general, which would suck.

I'm a hard-like-diamond core Star Wars fan. I WILL CRUSH ALL THOSE WHO DARE TO OPPOSE ME. :atat:

And I don't know about where you live, but in America, we have these real neat little things called 'periods'. They look like this: . They are used to seperate sentences. It makes writing a whole lot easier to read. This concludes today's English Lesson with Jonathan. Stay tuned for a preview of next week's episode....

Really, the Pilot Droid should be Blue, the Assasin should be plain (red markings mean Security... i.e. Guards on the TF Command Ships or Viceroy's guards on Naboo.) and the Heavy Weapons should be yellow, for Commander. The Pilot should not have a backpack either... ;)

Why would the Heavy Weapons unit be the commander skin? That makes less sense than having the Assassin Droid with the red security markings.

they do, the focal point is just farther out than one might expect. it's best to use the scope when aiming a droideka.

Well you have got a point there, but Commander could mean heavier weapons, although this isn't usually the case. Anyway, I like those yellow markings! :p Most importantly (and even that is not very important) is that the Pilot is blue and the Assasin is plain and do whatever you like to the Hvy Weapons. What about those maroon/red droids you see on Geonosis, they don't appear to exist. :(

No offence, but you need to stop dwelling on the minor mistakes, I`m sure that Pandemic are aware of these and are in the process of fixing them.

I consider myself a pretty big star wars fan but cant say I noticed anything with the sounds, and it doesn't really detract from the playability for me anyway. Perhaps the sound will be 'fixed' but they really have a lot of much more pressing and important issues.

I have to mention though maxloef, some things will have to change from the movies for playability and balance, certain concessions have to be made.

In the movie you only saw two gunship rockets hit the trade union ship, it may have been battered before hand. Even if it did only take two rockets that would make it far to easy to destroy the CIS command post in battlefront, remember one side has to defend it to make it worthwhile it has to be a challange but not too hard or too easy to defend/destroy.

It is for playability.

An Original Quote From Mark Hamill
"How can you be so serious on a film where you are dodging explosions and running away with Sir Alec Guinness on this side and an eight-foot monkey on this side, and the eight-foot monkey is the one flying the spaceship?" :rolleyes:

It is a game. It could be better, but it is fun and that is all that matters. I'm impressed with the amount of continuity in the sounds as it is. I hear some of the same sounds in the JK games, in SW Bounty Hunter, and in the movies. They must have them all stockpiled in a sound department.;)

Saying SW BF is inaccurate is like saying 2+2=4. All I have to say is "no duh".:D

Oh? You'd think the team behind Rogue Squadron III would learn from I and II, but no.

I see it as a qstn of priorities
The game is inaccurate in many places to the movies, but playable.
Some concessions were probably made for playability or to balance a challenge amongst opposing forces.
Some were probably made to get it out the door.

Many deeper issues will hamper this puppy from being the game of the year, and it had the potential , i repeat -> the potential, to be the game of the year.

Crappy MP support, no Linux binaries for servers, and a poor MP framerate by default, are her worst problems in getting mass acceptance, and use by people that arent as detail oriented, and knowledgeable as maxloaf is.

Good Eyes & ears MaxLoaf - well done
(Be sure to email them to Pandemic, some may get fixed in the patches this thing screams to have written/released, I bet some wont, but its worth a shot.)

That's called 'balancing', it makes the game playable for everyone. It can be very realistic, but it wouldn't make it very fun to play. If those hailfire droids were really that strong, nobody would play Rep's on Geonosis...

You write wrong ALL the time, learn to spell n00b

Not everyone has English as their first language, a lot of forumers started out this way.
And the proper term is Newb, at least for now.

Newb= New guy, willing to learn.
N00b= idiot, talks 1337-speak, blames his own (countless) mistakes on others, not willing to learn.

Though, Max, i would advise you to get a little better at English...

Well you go by the movies when you can, but where's the logic in having a rank structures (and verbal orders) in a "Droid Army" that has a control ship?


Granted, the common explanation for this is that the DCS is just an "alive signal" or something.
