The size of the vehicles is what would make them seem out of place. Rey is small compared to a tank. Yes size matters in this instance. Imagine having the death star floating above you on naboo. It would be wayyy more intrusive to your gaming experience than some stray death trooper for example. So there are degrees of impact that different things have on immersiveness compared to others, and size is a massive contributing factor to them. You understand now? Don't call me daft if you've got such a weak understanding of such a simple concept.
Open my mind ? When it's about the very thing I can not change - what others pick - you tell me to open my mind ?
I see Anakin and Vader on every map. That's what happens in Europe pal.
Liar. Since the nerf he's not nearly as frequently seen.
We are not all on the same server and map. Calling me a liar won't change the fact our experiences differ.
He's still a formidable opponent, if not the strongest. So he's taken.
This guy gets it, why are heroes the exception? If tanks and reinforcements are era locked then heroes should be to.
Check the post at the top of this page for the reason for no vehicles. I wouldn't mind era unlocked reinforcements however.
well, that comment was *****... except for the Death Star, which is not considered a vehicle in this game, the sizes of the standard vehicles fit pretty well...
I disagree, Heroes are much more intrusive on your gaming experience because they can go everywhere you go and more, unlike vehicles.
Did we saw Yoda fighting Darth Maul on Naboo?
Did we saw Bossk fighting somewhere on the battlefields or was he just interestend in bounty hunting?
Did we saw Boba Fett on the battlefields or was he just interested in bounty hunting?
Did we saw Leia fighting outside on Hoth or was she mostly just sitting in the commando center?
I think i better stop here, there is more then enough examples. On Star Wars a lot of heroes have never fought each other or have ever been on some locations at war, even on the same era.
For me the game is completly fine how it works right now, no need to complain about the era thing after two years anyways. I even like how it works.
Also consider that era lock on Galactic Assault would lead to a massive content drop for each map.
Jesus Christ. It was an EXAGGERATION to prove a point!!
yeah, except the fact it did not prove anything - therefore a very weak comment
Well it did, but someone like you would say anything to make it seem like it didn't.
Someone like me? So who am I?
Which vehicle does not fit into the other eras then from your point of view? From a pure sizing perspective? I do not see anyone, except maybe the AT-TE which is also not considered a tank.
See, I do not want cross era tanks or something like this, I do not see the reason for having such. But I just do not get your point and you seem quite offensive although I am just trying to tell you this
So now you are just going to act as a spoiled brat that always gets what he wants? Did mummy and daddy always get you the biggest, bestest toy in the barbie section, did you play with them all day long and cuddle up to them when you went to sleep and cry if you lost them? Man, what a life you live.
If this is the case, why even make this thread? It obviously seems like you are scared that others disagree and that they may get what they want from the game.
That's how things and especially factions have always worked in video games.
You've got a faction with an era-accurate roster you can deploy on era-accurate maps. The rest of history is yours. Think about OG Galactic Conquest.
It's not because Caesar went in Gauls I can't decide to bring him in Africa instead, in Rome 2 Total War.
It's not because Aragorn killed Lurtz in Lord of the Rings I can't have someone else from the fellowship kill him in the 2003 Two Towers video game.
It's not because Goku killed Freezer with a Kamehameha I can't have Goku beat him using fists in Dragon Ball Z games.
It's not because Obi-Wan cut Anakin in half in ROTS I cant give the final blow with force powers in the ROTS video game.
You're pointing out how video games have always worked.
This game is the only exception. It's a concern for some because everything else in the game GA is perfectly accurate faction-wise. Weapons are barely noticed. That's why cross-era Heroes are out of place in GA's design.
The amount of times this needs explaining is staggering. Us “immersion” folk are asking for an authentic experience, not a canon experience. By that, it is meant that as long as something is plausible and entirely possible, it is authentic, but that doesn’t mean it has to be entirely canon
So, by using your examples:
- Yoda and Maul were both alive during the events of the PT, and thus is entirely plausible that they could have fought one another on Naboo
- Bossk was alive during the events of the PT and OT, so it is entirely plausible he accepted a contract to fight in battles
- Same as previous
- Leia was actually there, so it is entirely plausible that she could fight in the battle on Hoth
Yh i totally agree, they could benefit so much from a bigger dev team, i guess they just dont make enough money off the game which is a real shame cuz i love it.
I agree on the heroes and ahsoka spans cw and ot, no confirmation on st but she isnt dead yet so definitly could span into that aswell. I wouldnt mind this for of cross era
This. No one needs to have seen the specific fight or event occur or the game would be boring, its the immersion of what is possible to occur and what is impossible like characters not being alive at the time.
Either way ga will continue era unlocked and thats fine because it always has been, lets just keep cs immersive and then everyones fine.
Well the game did make over a billion dollars for them. Surely that's enough for them to put some of that money back into it instead of just giving it to other development projects.
I suppose maul could be considered OT as well, because in SOLO they clearly allude to him still having a significant influence on some areas of the galaxy during the movie and that movie would have to be considered to be extremely close to OT to the point where any characters in it are classed as that era as well.
Yh darth maul appears in rebels alot and dies in a final fight with obi wan on tattoine so yh i would consider him ot. I would really like them to introduce cross era skins for the immersivness to be honest
Do you mean lock the skins of heroes to their era? Also what is rebels?
Naa i wouldnt say lock them, but allow players that like the immersion to pick it so it makes more sense visually, like allow the option for that bigger step towards more immersion. And rebels is a show that takes place at the very begining of ot era. Theres a couple good episodes tbf, i wouldnt class the show anywhere near as good as clone wars. You do have ahsoka vs darth vader though which is quite big, theres a form of time travel in it. I think that episode is the world between worlds. There is ahsoka vs darth maul, darth maul vs obi wan for last time. Have a look on youtube.
Star Wars Rebels is the cartoon set a couple years before A New Hope
Ohhh I remember seeing that fight between them. I never liked the look of that animation of vader though. Hey do you know why people seem to be so down on the mandalorean show? It seems like a good idea for a show, but I've seen a lot of comments talking trash on it.
Oh so now you're Mr helpful nice guy
I always have been
Yh i wsnt the biggest fan of the show but there are some important moments in it that every star wars fan should see. I dont see why people are hating on it when we dont even have a trailer for it, barely had any footage. I think its going to be absolutly amazing. Surprisingly enough, episode 9 is the thing im least excited about coming.
I don't get competition in this game either. If I need to deal with steam roll after steam roll, I may as well be immersed as I get rolled over.
Pirate of the Knights of Gareth
Exactly. I don't get the hate for the mandalorean. I think it's a great idea for a show and can't believe it's taken this long for a live action star wars series to be honest.
I'm not excited for episode 9 at all. Episode 7 was just a copy of a new hope basically and 8 was the absolute worst star wars ever made by a mile. Seems unlikely they can come back from that with JJ Abrams as director. I mean he's good at making quite good sci-fi movies, but he's just never quite made a movie that I would call truly great. Nothing on the level of James Cameron or Steven Spielberg type blockbusters. Closest he's ever come to a really great movie was star trek into darkness. I just doubt he can replicate anything similar to that coming from the position which that fool rain johnson left the franchise in.
Aside from the season 2 & 3 finales, you'll only find pain if you explore rebelz.
Pirate of the Knights of Gareth
Ever since the disney took over star wars, its lacked imagination, the sequel trilogy could have been amazing but they tried to recreate the originals in their own way.
Also Armageddon was kind of cool. Apart from all the annoying gravity things like that asteroid having as much an effect on the astronauts as it did, and that stupid scene where they say they will simulate low gravity by making a vacuum in a big room haha like why would that simulate low gravity?? Haha Although not following things like that usually would fit in well with good old "light speed" star wars haha
Yep. Hollywood in general is lacking imagination in the movies lately. It's all in the TV shows now. Which is fine I guess. Just wish more of it at least stayed with star wars.
This is why the st has been awful.
We'd have been better off with an indy studio.
Pirate of the Knights of Gareth
I still dont understand why they made the resistance fight the first order instead of a new republic army? It was just to try and recreate the rebels, really poor choice in my opinion.
It's so frustrating to see it gone so wrong. The SFX all suck and seem so unrealistic. They're just living off the nostalgia of what great directors did decades ago. Jurassic world sucks as well. That entire industry is to blame, and also the people that support those movies when they come out. I sure as hell ain't seeing any star wars anymore because I've chosen to boycott them for the filth they pump out.
I agree 100%, you have the same views I do on that
Yeah that would of been cool. Like the whole republic was also only situated in one star system? I mean star killer only killed planets visible from takodana, so must of all had the same star, yet their entire republic was gone? Star killer was also a poor choice. Death star was believable, star killers extremely slow "laser" (can't of been a real laser, but whatever) would of taken years or decades to get where it had to. It obviously travelled slower than light because those people that it killed could see it before it hit them.
They forgot that the ST needed a credible villain and a reason to be invested in Rey's story.
The only reason I want to see 9 is to see how bad they botch bringing Palps back from the dead.
Pirate of the Knights of Gareth
Yeah that's right, kylo could of been so much greater than what he was. No sulking and whiney little boy stuff that he did would of been a start. Vader always had every single person on earth's attention because people knew if they ever met him in real life, he would not only physically intimidate them but was also mentally unbreakable because he was so focused on his goals. Whereas kylo had the potential to be similar to that or at least he have some great mystery about him. Except we got some weak minded little boy.
Crylo started out great. Once the 2 Storm Troopers heard him having his lil emo fit and turned around like it was a regular occurrence I gave up on him. It was a sign, that proved to be spot on
Pirate of the Knights of Gareth
They just need to leave ga cross era and add all eras to cs keeping everything era locked and everyone has an option.
Pirate of the Knights of Gareth
None of what you wrote makes any sense. Just because you don't want to see the imagination does not mean that it's not there. It only makes you look ignorant.
I could agree with that.
The problem with Kylo, is that he is actually the only good character in the ST, but even he isn’t great compared to the rest of Star Wars characters
I would also agree. It's mostly OT and ST I want to play without PT heroes.
