Re: Feb. 6th News Update - Ryloth, New Vehicles

Go easy on the Devs - theyre just upset that GC still has players & fans after like 4 years, while their baby kinda dropped into coma right after birth...

Also i cant see why Ryloth is better than Hoth - Why the hell Ryloth!? Is the colour red so much nicer than white? I just dont get it...

You can slap me now if you want to, im drunk and i prolly deserve it smile

Re: Feb. 6th News Update - Ryloth, New Vehicles

Maybe its more of a variety of maps, you know major places like hoth have been done already. Its time to go to the lesser known battles smile

Because they don't have AT-ATs ready yet. Hoth is kinda pointless without them, don't you think (don't noone mention that there GC now tongue )?

Having said that, I agree fullheartedly with this:

While I'm looking very much forward to Hoth, it's the Star Wars counterpart to WWII games' Omaha beach. 'Everyone' does Hoth, and it's getting to be a bit of a cliché. FS giving out lots of lesser battles in the beginning is akin to how Forgotten Hope 2 started with the neglected African theatre.

We'll see the space battle over the Sanctuary Moon and the Battle of Hoth soon enough, I'm certain of it.

Do I detect a slight case of sarcasm-marinated cynicism wink ?

Re: Feb. 6th News Update - Ryloth, New Vehicles

Im sorry sad i should shut up, i know that

im just so disappointed - instead of trying to attract the average mod player (like myself) this mod only addresses to the die hard star wars geeks anymore.

Im sure Ryloth is a fine map, but the average 2142 player with no great SW background needs to be presented with something he can relate to, they want an "omaha-style" map.

And whats the deal with "hoth has been done before"? Of course it has, but not by FS - and thats what i wanna play
(Why even have weapons in a FPS game - Wolfenstein did that before! Come up with something new and unique!)
