Re: Ships Going Down

Just weren't any in that trailer. And keep in mind the Rebs leaving Hoth weren't leaving a hanger were they?

Re: Ships Going Down

One of the imperial ships in GC had a funny flaw, there was a certain point ontop of it that was like a hole through the model and rebels could drop into it, into the interior of the ship. What followed afterwards was the inevitable slaughter of every unknowing Imperial on the ship, like the pilot and gunners. And everyone who spawned back would be shot in the back.

Rebels would hijack these ships, pilot them, and travel with full speed to the edge of the map, destroying it.

And boy... the imps were pissed. big_smile

Re: Ships Going Down

Yeah, I remember those tactics being used,and although they were very effective as regards kills/winning a round etc.I considered them to be most unsporting.
Being boarded properly via troops in transport(as suggested), I can live with.But some loner in an escape pod slipping in through a glitch and then spawn camping is not the right way to make a good fight of it. neutral

Guns don't kill people,Stormtroopers do.

Re: Ships Going Down

don't worry as far as explosions goes wink

myself and havoc are going to work on those specificaly.

and we are getting pretty ambitious with ideas, but not to spoil TOO much, but at least one of our ideas, involves destruction similar to that seen in the coruscant battle in episode 3.
