Should be easy enough to tie it to an event......if they are ever finished.

And i'm confused...are you comparing me to vader, or saying that i'm such an angry control freak that only i should fly it with obediant troopers following behind. I can see it now...'he's mine!'

Re: Vehicles I'd love to see

I don't think he is. Vader doesn't complain as much. big_smile

I am not sure about it. But it sounds like it could be fun.

Re: Vehicles I'd love to see

I think all he meant was that since Twigs is our resident fighter ace, the X-1 should naturally fall on him.

Re: Vehicles I'd love to see

Heh, I can already hear his angry yells as some noob gets to the X-1 before him lifts off and crashes the thing into the deck. Think I'd just have to remove my headphones at that point. I have sensitive ears.

The TIE Advanced also has shields so it'll be a lot tougher than a standard TIE. We were going to add this to Yavin in the fashion mentioned above, but it was felt that to add this without the Falcon for the Rebels would unbalance the map, so the sooner we get the Falcon spaceworthy? The sooner we'll see both of these bad boys in action. Can't wait myself.

I'd see the Falcon as a similar animal to how the Gallofree currently operates in space maps, but with the speed and manoeuvrability of a starfighter. Perhaps a co-pilot could operate shields (front and aft as opposed to top and bottom as on the Gallofree), and the pilot could have control of Concussion Missiles, though I'd see these as a dumb fire high yield ordnance as seen in the movies rather than the X-Wing game style homing Concussion Missiles currently used by the A-Wing and TIE Defenders. You'll just have to wait and see how we handle this most iconic of Star Wars ships.

cool

Don't be so sure.

Vader's complaints end to be fairly family friendly tho.

Re: Vehicles I'd love to see

We could always make it a unique vehicle tied to specific players. If the devs get lightsabres and Gwynzer gets the unitaun, Twigs should get the X-1. But only if I get the Mirror's Edge-themed Mortar Freerunner big_smile .

As for the Falcon, just have the pilot control the craft as well as operating missiles and shields, while two gunners take the reins of the quad guns smile .

Re: Vehicles I'd love to see

Too many things for the pilot to do there, which is why I suggest that a co-pilot gets to operate the shields. As for two defector screens you'd need two mouse buttons if operated in the same fashion as the Gallofree, so what would you fire your missiles with? I suppose it all depends if we go with a similar control scheme to that ship or come up with something completely different.
