just imagine the lagfest caused by this!!! its hard enough to get a smooth game in space when there are 40 ppl clashing on the screen, now imagine that for 100...

i'm almost certain its impossible, but is it possible to have more then 64 players per server? Hundreds of fighters clashing all at once would be epic

remember the space stations defender turrets in GC? how about them?
i know i wont use them. hell with this much space i wont even come near them. but maybe in future maps there are objectives that need defending. like a asteroid mining /reseach base or something

Although I don't believe that we should use gimmicks such as asteroid fields and ion storms to force players to choke points on EVERY space map, I do have some ideas....

Space maps involving large-radius control points, which need to be fought over, would be awesome.

Well not every planet has an asteroid belt

A few maps with asteroids/debris would be nice but definately open space is also good for me. As far as empty space goes, join a 40+ player server and u'll get all the insane action u've been missing

I like space the way it is. I don't think it's too much area to cover. But objects (asteroids, junk, etc) are welcome additions to any space format in any game. An asteroid field would be nice... like in Empire Strikes Back... or even junk hanging around that got ejected from a Star Destroyer (garbage)... I like flying around stuff I guess..

With that said though.. I'm still learning the controls.. so objects aren't top of the list for me.. Maybe when flying becomes second nature, I'll care more.. but til then I can handle what's there just fine.

naah, asteroids would be awesome! u could have the dogfight of ur life there! i can see it! fly between asteroids trying to shoot that A-wing while the gunner is shooting at u but hitting the rocks!!! so awesome, can it be done? and i dont mean like can u put a rock into the map, asteroids needs to be ''flying'' around, not just standing still

Asteroids are a gimmick and I'd rather they not be in every single space map.

For realz, squad up people! Space would be so awesome with a bunch of attack squadrons in formation commin at you.

An asteroid field huh? I'm interested.

Join a squad and you can spawn on your squad leader.

I know its space, and their isn't an up or down really, just your perspective. But in fleet ops, i think ppl would have insturments to tell them which way is up as far as the capitol ships and fleet are going. also a 'altitude" am I at the top of the map or the bottom?

Where are the shields on the x-wing?

Astoriod fields are a must, maybe have longer lasting wreakage, and bits of space junk flying around. I am not so sure about Rad clouds and such.

I would have to agree, but i love the idea of an asteroid field
