Re: New Maps, New Toys, New Fun

Boarding in a naval sense has been done to death.

but true boarding as in being able to take control of vessel which could be considered a small town or village back in the days of boarding in the high seas... that would be intriguing and very worthwhile cool

Re: New Maps, New Toys, New Fun

i might be missing the point here, but
where do you get naval boarding from?

A more suitable reference would be another Star Wars mod,
which already did an attempt of realizing boarding in space.
Granted "boarding" was basically just "glitching" into the enemy ship in that game...

Which was ever so fun, too bad that was never totally realized.

Re: New Maps, New Toys, New Fun

Space-boarding in this mod/game?

Why didnt anyone think of that earlier? roll

If the only complaint you can muster is that we didn't do it earlier, we must be onto something good big_smile !

Scooby doo been round? What mystery?? I have no idea what you guys are talking about. Things in FS change so quickly, all news posts are null and void once they are posted as they are no reflection on finished work. Besides, we testers just put a big fat no stamp on all current WIP maps cause they suck. Y'all need to wait another 12 months now for new content while the dev's try to make something that meets my high standards. I mean come on, did you see the state of that walker?? Pfft..terrible..and that sandcrawler..ew. We needs new devs I reckon.
