Does anyone else think GB TOTALLY SUCKS for what it could've been?
I mean...Galactic Battlegrounds could've looked better if it was made by pre-schoolers! It even makes Force Commander look like the best game ever!
The fire on buildings looks sooo realistic (yeah right!)
--The animations suck
I use flame throwers on durasteel...and it does lots of damage! *cough*
--Sensible Star Wars stuff...except for major destructive vehicals (not AT-AT, but ones that would cut through durasteel) that would need to get close, everything uses blasters.
This game would have been awesome FOUR YEARS ago...
One thing that would've made it better would to have been impliment a more SC style into it..where almost all units use a ranged weapon, instead of lots that have "next-to" weapons.
I can safely say, unless reviews give this an 85%+ I'm not buying it, and that is unusual for me, as i have every SW game made for PC.
I registered just to say that.
I'll keep it simple, jerk.
SOo your complaining about Graphics and what kind of weapons things have?
So you're not buying the game unless some site says it's good? Get a mind of your own drone...
I registered just to say that.
He may have a point, if this was a C&C game i would go absolutely NUTS! Not to say that im not excited about GB but star wars in a C&C setting would kick A$#:)
i own FOCOM and I say that Galactic Battlegrounds is much beter than FOCOM. Sure it had some things that GB didn't have but there's a hell alot of things that FOCOM doesn't have. As far as my judgement of the 2 games I say the GB is better thab FOCOM.
im so pissed at his comments i dont know what to say.. *beep*
Watch your language, folk. -Sherack
What a Bull****er.
What does he want units to use?
Punches and kicks.
I choose not to respond to this.
I'm not gonna respond to someone who only registred to say such things.
THIS IS A SITE DEDICATED TO GB. FIND ANOTHER SITE TO POST CRAP STUFF ABOUT THIS GAME.:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
Someone is a little too judgemental over a "demo" :rolleyes:
No one ever said that it was the finished article........

He said that all the art and things are locked, and theat they are aonly fixing up the bugs
Demo was prepared before that statement was released.

Sites are already parading it as great!!!
IGN likes it. MFO likes it. GameSpy Likes it. GameSpot likes it. PCGamer likes it. Computer Games likes it. Computer Gaming Monthly Likes it...WHAT MORE DO YOU NEED!!!!:rolleyes:
LOL, It's funny how people who want to draw attention do these things...
Believe me, the demo is on beta stage. Omega version will be better.
Even if the graphics AREN'T that great, I'd still get it just because it's really cool using all those SW units! :atat: :D
Yeah the demo isn't even the finished product.

Personally I like the saying that "No game is EVER in the Omega stage. Just somwhere inbetween Alpha and Omega" Because remember games now a days have mods and different ways to play them. Games change with time etc. So like I said...no game ever gets to Omega unless it is deleted completely from all public thought...
he is giving his opinion jerks, u can go **** yourselfes if u want to insult someone for there opinions

I agree this is supposed to be a forum where we talk about how the game should be played and what improvements need to be made, ect. Maybe we should be a little more accpeting of his opinons, look what we did to mcGeeza, WE TOTALLY squashed his opinions and they werent all that bad.

People can have there opinions, but if you don't argue, then you will never figure out which one is true. So arguing isn't all bad all the time. but that doesn't mean we should be mean about it.
Suggesting about the game, and only criticize it are two completely different things.
Well lets think about it criticizing leads to only one thing, improvements
Hey, I agree, but honestly he wasn't doing it for the game to be better.
he most certainly wasn't, but that doesn't mean you can flame him. That is his opinion, and you can disagree and argue with him about it all you want, but don't flame him, thats not any better than what he is doing.
Wasn't flaming him, I said he was just trying to draw attention.

I never said that it was you, i'm just saying that some people on this thread are.
Ok, thanks, I misunderstood.
If you mean StarCraft style when saying SC style I am afraid it kinda contradicts (spelling?) what you said. You complained about flamethrowing guys taking out buildings? FireBat in SC does the same thing. Also a marine with a GUN shooting down a giant flying battlecruiser?
I don't think many ppl care about how realistic a game is, if it is fun and gives challenge, then who cares if a it isn't too realistic.
i totally agree with James. it really doesn't matter about if a marine can take down the mammoth battlecruiser, its the fun it gives you the will to play the game. that's what makes the game GB so fun. though i do think that they should balance the units, it's a good game. everyone has their own opinion about the game.
Can't we all just, GET ALONG?!?!?!
Come on guys this i a forum, dont flame the guy just cos he's opinoin differs from yours, this isnt YOUR forum
I like the game but i have to admit it didnt blow me away like i expect JKO to. Face it ppl, there hasnt really been a top selling Star Wars game since Jedi Knight
But like i said, tis only my opinion
I first started up the single player mission and saw the rebel trooper's goofy run I was not impressed. At first glance the graphics did not seem as good as aok's but after playing multiplayer with the different buildings and units I began to enjoy the game more and more. The graphics overall are pretty nice and the game is a lot of fun. Like in any game there is always a unit or two that does not look as good as the rest but really a game is not just about graphics. Gameplay is the key and I believe this game has a lot to offer. I am definately looking forward to the full version.

Yah, I think it should be balanced but its fun anyways:)
One of the most important factor in a SW game is the scaling. To make accurate scaling is to make it look a lot more believable. Do you honestly think 40 Stormtroopers could fit in the AT-AT? The Dewback is nearly as big as an AT-AT for crying out loud!!! The air units should be much bigger, especially since they are higher up, thus closer to the "camera." When you look at the doors at some of the buildings, it looks as like the people couldn't fit in them. At least in Force Commander, the scaling was believeable. They should do a complete re-scaling of all the units, and then it would be a MUCH better game.

But if they made the scaling exact, you'd either only be able to see on ATAT on the screen at a time, or the troops would be little dots on the landscape. I perfer it just like it is, scaling is often sacrificed for playability.
I don't think that's true. It doesn't look as though they couldn't make it bigger.
Wow. I gotta say, I come here every day just for my daily chuckles. Watching all of you guys trying to convince yourselves that there's no way LucasArts could release the game looking like the demo did. The cries of "It's only a demo!" and "It's from months ago!" never cease to make my day. I hope you like exactly what you've got now. I wonder what's going to happen when the full game is released. Regardless, I'm sure it'll be equally amusing. :)

u were the one flaming him what was that comment oh yeah it was I'll keep it simple, jerk.
was that not your statement
Is that GB is not terribly true to the Star Wars universe. And I agree with him. Ships? Hello? Flamethrowers melting durasteel?
I've made my points about why I don't think it's very true to the star wars universe in other places, I won't make them again. But please note I like the game.
I don't see why SW flamethrowers couldn't melt durasteel. Blasters tear through durasteel, right? And we all realize blaster bolts are plasma, right? Well, plasma basically does damage only because it is superheated (in the thousands of degrees). The flamethrower might produce enough heat to do the same.
Maybe because the Mounted Troopers use a type of heated liquid (ex. Roman Fire/oil). I mean, the civ's could of made a type of liquid that ignights(sp?) and can melt durasteel. Right?:confused:
My point is that you shouldn't be trying to think up ways it could be done, you should be drawing a direct reference from a SW source. I'm sure it could be done, but we've never seen it in any SW stuff, which is why I say the game isn't very star warsey.
And when the hell did you see any ship apart from the bongo in ANY SW movie/book? Specifically, a warship?
sheesh, its just the demo, get a hold of yourself, why did u come here just to complain. If you want to do that go to forums.whinersville.com
Well, I was talking to my friend George Lucas on the subject of flame throwers in Star Wars just yesterday, and he said if you look closely at "A New Hope", frame 351, you know the one, you can clearly see stormtroopers using flamethrowers to kill a rebel fortress :eek:

:confused: Okay...sure thing...:duel:
Point is, since the flamethrower was in the movie, even for the brief second, its ok for it to be in the game. Just like if an author wrote that Godzilla comes back to life in the SW Universe, it could be in the game, since its right there in the book
The makers of this game have as much power to create their own sw lore as any author did :eek:

just cause u dont see it doesnt mean it does not exist :) and if they didint make up stuff then it wouldnt be too fun..having no anti-air units/towers..lots of the tanks...flamthrowers...ships..subs...LOTS OF WOOKIES AND NABOO units not there........as well as Naboo....sure would be a fun game without all that.........NOT
AND all books written by authors not associated w/ the Star Wars movies are made up..chewie died..that was made up...lots of things were made up..hell the whole sw universe was made up...if things were not made up then we wouldnt be here cause there wouldnt be this forum because there is no SWGB because there is no star wars...i went a little far but i wanted to make a point :)
and if you dont consider this game star warsey then let me give you reasons why it is: empire, rebels, naboo, trade fed., wookies, gungans, lasers, atats, atsts, stormtroopers, dewbacks, tauntaauns, snowspeeders, tie fighters, tie bombers, x-wings, naboo fighters, lightsabers, bounty hunters, jedi, sith, darth vader, han solo, chewbaca(however u spell that),leia, boss nass, qui-gon jin, bongo subs, mtt, atts, battle droids, naboo security guards, dark troopers, shields, .............you get my drift :)
I cannot believe this fool. As of this moment my fleet is coming to pound you and you're foolish decisions. Or maybe I'll kill you myself.
