Re: Dark Troopers

TY, please don't speak for the Dev team on issues like this as you have no idea what our actual plans are.

On a more official note, seeing Dark Troopers make it into the mod is unlikely, but I wouldn't rule it out as we may yet find a role for them at some point in the future.

Re: Dark Troopers

Well, how would i see Dark troopers working?


DT Phase 3 could be a battlesuit (like it was stated before)

Leaving the coding/functionality/programming issues aside, since i understand as much about them as i understand about Jet turbines, how would they work?

Vehicle, 1 per map (heed on the explanation)

Resistance slightily lower than the AT-ST
Weapons : Dual wrist blasters (small AoE), Dumbfire "drunken"(think of 2142 Battlewalker rocket flight pattern, only wackier) rocket pods
speed: Sloooow, slower than a kneeling soldier

this thing would pack a punch, a serious one, be quite resistant, but slow as a lazy hutt...

Map it could feature in??

Battle of Talay (Rebel Tak Base from dark forces) Any1?

Re: Dark Troopers

Uh, thats the basis for imperial equipment, Fear over function, part of tarkin doctrine, rule by fear of power, rather than by power itself

hence why the AT-AT is that behemoth, but has guns only on the head.. sounds kinda stupid no?

Re: Dark Troopers

any way, these Dark troopers sound like they would make the game much more unfair, when the teams become unfair people will join the good team an people who cant get on the good team will whine and cry then quit. so, no Dark troopers.
