Re: Maps in the first release?

Personally i hope the devs concider to make a map like Battle of Tanaab, not because of it's objectives, but the research station made an awesome place for people to dogfight. You could lose your enemy inside of it, or if done right confusing your enemy and letting your opponent crash into a wall. The place was good enough.

Just imagine what a Deathstar II interior would be like, few good pilots would actually make it inside. 

If you want to have a dogfight map, just make it interesting, things people recognize from the movies, a fictional battle from the EU books, or a made-up story that involves a region of space thats good enough for the masses and one that doesnt get boring too quickly.

And thats quite a task...

They'd have to make it a bit easier than in the movies, I think, with wider tunnels and less twists and turns. But yes, it'd be awesome if done right. It'd be one Heck of a challenge for the devs, but it'd be awesome.

Imagine an FS trailer recreating the tunnel run as accurately as possible - with voiceovers and music from the movies and gameplay from FS. People would run each others down for the mod big_smile .

Re: Maps in the first release?

I have personally been waiting that Endor map that was in pictures some time ago. Any idea if it is still in this project?

Re: Maps in the first release?

i got it... straight from the movies... a dogfight / objective map on a Super Star Destroyer... flying low through all the control/weapons towers would be a blast. goal would be to take out the sheild generators and then the bridge... maybe make the bridge invincible except to kamikaze a-wings wink
