FroZ - I don't dislike the game because it doesn't have the PT in it, I dislike it because it's going to be incomplete, and yet another waste of fan's money. I dont think the game is going to be incomplete. They have increased the release date just t...  [Read More]

Exactly, I still have doubts about the game because 2/3 of the OT wont be in it. Of course it is still very confusing since it seems the Rebels have many aspects from RoTJ, but the Empire doesnt. I.E. A-Wing. I'm hoping they have something very secre...  [Read More]

lol, I love it. Here I am making predictions that the game will suck, and get blasted by practically everyone for it, and here we have others saying 'it will be the greatest' and nothing is said. Sounds more than a little hypocritical. I agree with y...  [Read More]

I used force commander as a comparison because it is one of the only Star Wars RTS around. Im not talking about every RTS. Im saying I will like this game because it will be the best Star Wars RTS. It will finally give us a great RTS to play with the...  [Read More]

You know Windu even though the game may not be as good as it could have been, I dont think it will suck. Why? Compared to what? Force commander? I mean any Star Wars RTS would almost be better than that. It is obvious that petro has put quite a deal...  [Read More]

They'll do a Clone Wars expansion first if any becuase of the prequel trilogy being fresh in everyone's minds. I'm not sure, because that would require almost three times as much work as a RoTJ expansion. I mean you have to add two more teams with th...  [Read More]

If this game doesnt go so far on the timeline, then I am looking foward to good content and missions. I wont get too mad because this game looks far better than ANY Star Wars RTS ever released. Even though the technology may end at ANH. Also.... chec...  [Read More]

The game does not end at ANH. The tech tree ends there(to a point) There is no ANH! You make your own story! Why don't you people get that! Okay, first off yes the game does end at ANH, even if you do make your own story. If the tech tree ends there...  [Read More]

The fact that it ends at ANH is also a slight down to me. I was hoping it would at least cover the whole original trilogy. Oh well.... I mean hopefully it will be loaded with tons of content....  [Read More]

If you really really wanted EaW without having to wait a whole month, I suggest visiting www.ebay.com when it comes out here in Feb. 7th. I know people will buy it then resale it on there and you might get lucky and find an international shipper. The...  [Read More]

I dont think the Death Star will have something equivelent to hard points. In fact I dont even think it will have any kind of fleet interaction, i.e. Rebel ships firing at it. I expect it to be treated as a planet type object....  [Read More]

People need to understand that EaW is for you to control. There really is not set Timeline like the movies. There may not even be a New Republic ever in your timeline. Maybe the Empire wins. (haha what do i mean maybe??? of course they will lol)...  [Read More]
