Re: Another inside ISD Battle?

Personally, I don't mind if people compare us to GC. They are both Star Wars mods for games in the BF series, so obviously similarities are going to happen naturally. What I hope doesn't happen, when we release FS, is people saying "well, it wasn't like that in GC" or something of the like, because obviously most aspects of the mod will be much different. smile
I really like GC, heck I still play it from time to time, but I have to agree that it had a very arcadey feel to it. FS will be more sim and strategy based, focusing a lot more on teamplay and such.

Now that I've gone a little off topic, I'll say that I think a map aboard an ISD is something we could likely do in the future. smile

Re: Another inside ISD Battle?

A map on an ISD sounds great!


For the record, I never even played GC tongue

Re: Another inside ISD Battle?

1st off , and this is no dis-respect to them, we only have 5 ex GC devs on the team (Jay , Preach , Rob , Luuri and woody) . Out of all the people who are part of FS (and those that have worked on FS) ...that is a tiny pecentage. I dunno how many devs GC had in total , but id hazard a guess at their being more than 9. The above 5 have done some excellent work...they are all very talented.

And yes, it's hard not to think of GC when I honestly think it'd be a good move to change the name to Galactic Conquest 2 or Galactic Conquest 2142 or some-such, if only as a sub-name ("First Strike - Galactic Conquest 2" or something). But I realize that if I were the original non-GC developers of FS, I'd almost certainly likely not do so myself.

Ok, let me get this straight....Should all World War mods be called Forgotten Hope 3, 4 ,5 ,6 ,7 etc. ?

Should POE really be called Forgotten Hope ?

Ludicrous.

You should know that I said awhile back that if someone mentioned that we should be called GC2 I would ban them from the site. Luckily for you, I just cant be bothered anymore.



To answer the original question. Yes, the likelyhood of us doing capship interior maps is pretty much a definate. Dont be suprised to see a number of them either. ISD/SSD , Mon Cal cruiser , Tantive ...all would be great maps ...as would a DeathStar interior map.

Re: Another inside ISD Battle?

All those sound great especially the SSD I want to see most. But how do you justify a Deathstar interior map as far as lore is concerned?

DeathStar map:
A group of imperials who have sympathy for the rebellion are found out and captured.
The group manages to escape their cells and must make their way to the hangars and steal a shuttle.
BAM!

Re: Another inside ISD Battle?

Sorry, Bandu, I didn't mean to upset you.

As for Rybot's scenario, I like it. It provides a way to put the Death Star in the game. I can picture a team of rogue Imperials or prisoners starting at a certain point and needing to fight their way to the nearest hangar bay. It'd make for a very nice 16 player map, I think.
