Re: another sw mod o.O

Personally, I agree with there being too little of a fan base to have two Star Wars mods.  However, I do not believe a merge is neccessarily... neccessary.  I believe more of a cooperation.

What I mean is that I believe both mods could merge together, and would release as one final mod, however the two teams stay seperate within development.  That way, everyone stays where they are at, in their normal working environment with their normal working peers, they work with the era and skill they always have, but in the end it is all put together.  Two teams working on different parts of the same mod.  The ER team working on the Clone War era, the FS team working on the GCW era. 

This would also lead to a sense of differentiation in style between the eras, which is something that did happen.  The style of the Clone Wars, the armor and ships and such would change (In character, mind you) over time, which would be brought by the unique style of the FS team, compared to the unique style of the ER team.  They both have seperate unique styles, both perfectly in line with the time zone they are working with.

Now comes the true question though...  if the merge were to go through...

What would it be called?

Re: another sw mod o.O

The name WIL NOT change that has already been decided.

As I said in my last post, lets leave the merge Idea alone for now. It is something to be discuseed between the two teams. (I was hoping no-one would discover them, until a decision had been made). Various diffrent ideas have been already suggested in private, Just give it some time.

We think in the same way, Un-Co has proposed to us a fusion, it was a good idea of its share, but in interest of our two mods (and thus so that empire rising remains), an alliance or rather a co-operation between our two team is preferable.
I do not know what you think, but it exist well several mods on the World War 2, then why not several mods on Starwars? smile


thanks

Well, the problem with two Star Wars mods is the limited fan base for Star Wars, especially in Battlefield 2.  It would be possible that both mods would have the exact same fan base, and the same people playing after they both release. 

However, the mods would probably both get a lot more people if you didn't have to load up a seperate mod just to play in a different era of the Star Wars universe.  Personally, I'd stick to just one mod because I'm too lazy to constantly have to leave Battlefield 2 just to rejoin it through a different means.  And, knowing my luck, in doing that I would just find that all the servers are empty or full, thus meaning I would then have to just leave anyways and go back to playing the other mod, which the server I will have just left will become full and I will have to join another one which is not as fun because it is with people I do not as oftentimes play with.
