the e wing ain't THAT shitty
>Z95 above anything
>>315285008
And the f-35 is?
>>315285008
Fuck you nigger, E-Wing is best space superiority fighter.
>But muh iconic X-Wing!
It's outdated, faggot. Sometimes the "old reliable" ship isn't so reliable, it's just old.Y-Wing is best-wing, though.
Shouldn't the Y-Wing be compared to the A-10 Thunderbolt, since it's heavily-armed and durable but slow?
>>315285484
>try to reverse image search this
>The image is no longer available or is not publicly accessible.
what
>>315285008
So A-Wing = F16 and B-Wing = A-10 then?
>>315285484
Bullshit, none of those snubfighers could make the Kessel Run in as few parsecs as the Falcon.
>>315285839
I attribute the success of the Kessel run to the pilot not the ship
>>315285839
Wasn't the Kessel Run more about evading gravity wells instead of just plain speed?
>>315285727

But Y-Wings are so friggan slow, I kept getting shot down when trying to use them in rogue squadron
>>315285839
>>315285979
>>315286093
But isn't parsec a unit of distance and not speed?
>>315285484
a y-wing goes as fast as a tie fighter what the hell?
>>315286093
>plain speed
Plane* speed. They measure speed by how fast a commercial airliner goes, not by how fast a vehicle can drive on plains.
>>315286358
Solo was bluffing. Look at Obi-Wan's face when he says that, he knows Solo's full of shit.
TIE Defender > all of that shit
>>315286358
The Kessel run is littered with singularities. You better be a damn good pilot to maneuver around those.

He wasn't bluffing. He was a good pilot, and a good friend.
>>315286426
Yes. That's the chart ILM used for RotJ.
>>315285839
Han was full of shit when he said that, or at least that's what it was suppose to be.
>>315285008
>mfw I work on the F-15E
OP, learn the difference between A/A and A/G
>>315285628
that's what immediately came to mind for me
but OP is trying to make some dumbass tier list instead of pairing up fighters with their proper roles
>>315286650
No, it's a short-range fighter
If the Empire and Alliance are both US then who are the slavs
>>315285628
Nah, that would be the K-Wing, a dedicated CAS fighter
>>315286904
Black Sun. A barely-legitimate conglomerate of mongy criminals masquerading as legitimate states flying antique hunks of shit held together by duct tape and prayer.
>>315286909
What is this horrible mess?
>>315285628
>>315286829
i thought the Y wing was a pure strategic bomber? thats what i remember anyway
the A-10 is not a bomber, it's designed to fly low to the ground, what are you guys smoking?
>>315286909
The base design for this thing is literally a y-wing
>>315287357
Y-Wings can be used for a lot of roles, including bombing runs.
>>315287341
Someone please put it out of it's misery.
>>315287515
can be used and optimal are 2 different things
but people will do anything to move the goalpost i guess
>>315287341
What's that called, a Tie-Wing? An X-Fighter?
All I know is the y-wing is the best. I don't know dick about planes though.
>>315287341
Ah, the uglies.
>>315287151
Don't talk shit about Black Sun or else Guri will break your skull with her thighs

Don't talk shit about my multi-role fighter-bomber waifu.
>>315287637
Did you think about looking at the file name?
>>315287563
You don't know what misery is
>>315287847
Take a wild guess
>>315287612
>moving the goalposts
How was anything moved? They're multi-purpose fighter/bombers. We've had several of them in real life, as well. Plus the Y-Wing can do both surgical strike bombings and carpet bombing.
>>315288087
Oh God someone kill it.
Every time I see one of these Uglies my heart weeps.

SUPERIOR
the thread reminded me the coolest looking plane there is (apart of course from B-2)
This (Rihkxyrk, in the center) was my favorite SWG JTL ship after they did that chassis re-balance.
Sharing with you guys just because.
Y-wing: bomber
X-wing: multi-role
A-wing: air-superiority
B-wing is made to deal damage to capital ships. You can class them as a torpedo/ dive bomber.
Lucas modeled sw craft with ww2 in mind.
A snowspeeder is basicly a glorified Stuka.
>>315288924
THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST
Friendly reminder you could scrap every A-Wing as soon as they were produced and still end up with the most cost-effective fighter in history :^)
>>315285008
I would say xwing is an f-16 not an f-14
Also where the fuck is b-wing
>>315287357
>pure strategic bomber
Y-Wings were always fighters first.
>>315287240
>You see that shit? Fucking Imp engineers, man.
>>315285484
>Y-Wing same speed as X-Wing
>>315289473
>thought these were cool as fuck when you were a kid
>now they just seem stupid and non functional
what the fuck is the point if you have that bizarro thing?
why not just have a flying ball? for fucks sakes.
>>315289669
You saying ILM is wrong?
>>315286769
you might know tons about fighter maintenance but you don't know shit about star wars if you think the roles in that image aren't spot on
unless you think video game adaptations are canon
>>315288305
the Y wing isn't optimal for bombing, thats all that has to be said
not this middle ground, oh it's multi purpose, gray answer
>>315289519
i think i'm in the Rogue Squadron bench and i don't know it, is that the n64 one? that's the last Star Wars game i played, lol

Battle of Endor is the best battle in any Star Wars medium
If you disagree you are objectively wrong
>>315286358
It is, he means that he is so accurate with his jumps that he can navigate it in a minimal amount of distance
>>315287441
Doesn't look like they have anything in common but if they did it wouldn't make any difference anyway. You know the A-7 was based on the F-8 right, despite having wildly different specifications?
>Rogue Squadron is no longer the Rebel Alliance's elite fighter squadron
>>315290039
>TIE interceptor is super-maneuverable and fast
>can't turn sharply enough to avoid RUNNING INTO A HUGE-ASS CAPITAL SHAPE
So many thing bothered me in that battle, but that particular thing stands out so much.
Best fighter right here.
>>315290212
>Doesn't look like they have anything in common
The nose of the aircraft is identical, as well as the body and the two horizontal engines
They just gave it a dual cockpit, two rotating ball turret guns , 4 wings with external pylons, and a third engine
>>315289058
Y's really depend on which version you're using and how you fit it out. Depending on the version it can be a fighter (the single-seat A4), a multirole (the two-seat S3) or a bomber (BTL-B). They've all got different specifications and performance.
>>315290581
The guy just couldn't hang with Wedge.

>industrial light and magic are wrong about star wars
You literally can't go higher up the canonicity ladder than what's shown in the films, and ILM decided what that was. If they say Y-Wings are as fast as X-Wings, they are. You can get around that by saying the A4 was a different version than the S3 which is the Y-Wings that usually come up in the EU but like it or not it's how it is.
>>315285008
Where are the TIE Advanced and TIE Defender?
>>315290174
Then why does he give his ability as a navigator as a reply to the question whether the ship is fast or not, on a route that is not fraught with black holes?
These EU explanations are really bad at hiding lucas´ fuck-ups,and they are not even canon.
>>315287453
>shortly before her death at Doornik-319
Haha what the fuck.
>>315290149
It's modern by even today's standards.
The Battles from the prequels pale in comparison.

>>315290640
Only time we ever see them in the trilogy.
>>315290945
If George Lucas can contradict himself in his films how come ILM can't?
>>315289929
Y-Wing canonically taking out a Tie Interceptor... nice. (Although it would be fucked if positions were reversed.)
>>315290592
Oh hell yeah. I especially loved the customized ones in the clone wars cartoon that were based off of pic related.
>>315290272
Shit, that X-Wing explosion was used in ANH as well
>>315287341

>The nose of the aircraft is identical
Are you blind?
>>315291365
So what are the TIEs doing? trainning? or is space mailling between StarDestroyers?
>>315291113

>>315291284

>>315291704
Well it did take the entire rebel fleet's concentrated fire to bring down its shields and make it vulnerable.
>>315291647
They have by saying the Y-Wing is the same speed as the X-Wing
>>315291284
The Y-Wing didn't even do anything, both Interceptors flew straight into the Mon Calamari cruiser.
>>315285839
>>315285979
>>315286093
Falcon has a better hyperdrive, while some of those craft don't have it at all.
>>315291012
That's from the Black Fleet Crisis Trilogy.
It's one part hard scifi fleet fanservice with a political thriller in the background, one part lando exploring an alien ship as interludes, and one part shit.

I dont get what is worse, the SSD getting taken out by the A-Wing, or the fact the A-Wing lost control on the other side of the battle
>>315292152
THE HUTTS CAUSED THE CRASH OF THE EXECUTOR
>>315290592
My only problem really is the Republic ships should look more like the TIE fighters and imperial stuff. This is obviously a proto- Xwing but I always felt the CIS should have had the rebel ships.
It just makes more sense logistically
>>315291709
>the shape is similar so it's obviously based on the same design, which means they're obviously intended for the same role
pic related
>>315291841
>those badly-superimposed flames and explosions
They didn't fix that in the Special Edition? Geez. Especially love the candle-like flame put over the Executor's bridge.
>>315291868
Nowhere once in the films is the speed of anything stated, only shown and never once is the Y-Wing shown to be inconsistent with that chart.
Pic related, look at the relative agility and acceleration rates.
>>315292504
>That guy who just looks behind and keeps like nothing happen
>>315292346
The X-Wing was an Imperial design though, the Rebels just stole the blueprints and manufactured their own
>>315285008

That doesn't make sense
The CIS were destroyed anyhow
The time gap between empire and republic is actually pretty sparse on what we can see. Near the end of the clone wars cartoon though it shows a bit of the transition stuff

I'm working on an engine remake for this game and X-Wing.
One of my goals is to add an IL-2 style dynamic campaign mode.

>>315293780
>2 stormtroopers
So did they just find that or am I supposed to think that two ground troops were flying a single seat ship
>>315294120
It'll probably be a long ass time before I ever actually show it. I have to literally start from nothing but SDL.
Thankfully, the game's flight physics are very simple. Everything ever only moves towards where it is pointed. No Newtonian anything.
I have no fucking clue how I'll do AI though. I'm going to do that last. Maybe that's when I'll go super public with it so someone else can do it.
I'd also like to do multiplayer, though I don't know if I'll do it by adding it into each game or by also supporting X-Wing VS TIE Fighter.
>>315294181
Why do you think it crashed?
>>315294181
They're guarding it waiting for the tow ship to pick it up.
>rogue squadron

And the A-wing being fast enough to evade the forward intensity firepower.
>>315286650

>>315294181
That picture has a really tragic backstory about two valiant stormtroopers who found love on the battle field with each other and tried to flee from the oppressive Empire and its tyrannical anti-homosexuality laws, only to crashland on a primitive backwater planet in the Unknown Regions where the local government was as intolerant as the Empire.
>>315294443
Just make sure you have some sick ship destruction physics
>>315288370
If you're already with your shields down piloting that shit then you're already dead.

>>315289669
>>315290027
>>315290043
>>315291868
The Y-wing is as fast as an X-Wing when modified as the rebels have by removing the engine couplings and the rear gunner.
In a straight line it is fast, but not maneuverable. They were to function essentially as a torpedo bomber with the rear gunner being able to wipe out TIEs or what have you firing from behind. At Yavin the rebels removed the second seat and gunner for speed and it obviously cost them. Trained Y wing gunners are in short supply anyway as we saw at Hoth, where there were only a few walkers taken out because only a trained gunner could make a shot onto a walker leg like that.
This is partially why the X-Wing came into its own, it could function at its best with only one pilot or a pilot+astromech droid. It is also more maneuverable and more easily modified as a true multi role, though it is also considerably more expensive.
In this way the Y-Wing is more like an F-4. Fast in a line, not very maneuverable, but cheap and they made a shit ton. X-Wings are your F-15.
>>315294935
This guy knows his shit
y-wing is pleb ship
>>315287357
Y Wings are more like f-16's.
They used to be the best air superiority fighter, were out classed but are still used but are mainly used for CAS.
So which one is the F-22 Claptor?
>>315292346
Sienar Fleet Systems made the Jedi Eta-2 Interceptors you see Anakin and Obiwan use in EP3
>>315294935
You forgot that Y-wings have the options of bombs the X-wing cannot carry. + being able to carry a bigger payload.
The B-wing is litterally built to replace the Y-wing in terms of the heavy hitting role. But Y-wings are cheaper + have superior speed to they still maintain their own usefullness.
>>315288713
>tfw tie bombers don't simply launch a salvo of missiles macross style.
>>315290991
The ship being fast is secondary when you can make more precise jumps.
>>315294120
>>315294443
Though I will say I already figured out and completed the dynamic music system, used in someone else's remake attempt
http://azrapse.es/xwvm/
A Unity sample demonstrating it is here. Though I am not using Unity for the actual game.
>>315294779
For now I'm using the same physics as the original game. (wings split and spiral off while the main hull keeps spinning in a line until blowing up)
I'll experiment with other physics for it, including adding 2D debris chunks or making it look more like the films in some way
I should mention that graphical upgrades are not my intention. It will look more or less the same as the original games, except with higher resolutions. If someone wants a graphical overhaul, they can do it themselves. I'm all gameplay-first.
I'm sorry, but this is the GOAT Star Wars ship, a true patrician choice.
i wish there was something similar irl
>>315296331
this one too
>>315296781
Best ship.
>>315296331
>i wish there was something similar irl

You have to wonder why they called them Star Destroyers while the Old Republic was still around. It just sounds like a PR headache waiting to happen.

>>315297079
These things looked fucking amazing in Shadows of the Empire
>>315297152
>surprised Snake Parrot.jpg
>>315287559
so the A-wing is fast b/c it's more aerodynamic?
>>315297393
>You will never have your own custom made space superiority fighter that puts everything else to shame.
>>315297458
The A-wing is fast because it's just two really powerful engines.
>>315289050
solar panels? Shit. I did not realize those were solar panels. Why the fuck would have a solar powered fighter?
>>315297458
I thought the A-Wing was fast because it was just a cockpit mounted onto two huge jet engines.

>>315297613

no other ship description refers to the structural shape as a qualify for anything.

>>315297959
god DAMN thats hot
>>315298917
The first Death Star was the size of a moon. The second Death Star is twenty times or so bigger.
Both Death Star's probably had enough gravity to attract out of control star ships.
>>315298917
Maybe the engines were receiving improper instructions and it just happened to 'sink' rather than fly in any other direction?
>>315298416
don't forget they're named after the shapes of a non-existent language lmao
>>315298917
Considered the distance between the ship and the death star it's even more strange.
>>315299121
It would be more realistic that the ship would drift towards Endor.
>>315298965
Mcquarrie did some great concept art.

how has this been explained away by the autists?
How the fuck do the Rebels afford better fighters than the Empire? And for that matter why does the Empire skimp on their superiority fighter craft but splurge on seemingly everything else.
>>315299763
Tarkin refused to send out fighters because he was so overconfident of the Death Star. Only Vader's personal squadron was mobilized.
>>315299763
Jovans Karroll of Thetanis IV, the most loved admiral in the whole story of the Empire was having his retirement party aboard the Death Star, so many pilots where on leave of absence that day.
>>315299792
The empire a good fighter in the Tie and then just mass produced them out the ass. The rebels got what they could, but Endor was them throwing everything they had into one battle. The Empire however could still call upon countless reserves.
>>315299792
They like big and bad.
Psychological effect was the empire's main game.
Whats scary; a squad of elite fighters, or a swarm that blots out the sky with their accompanying star destroyer.

Question to Star Wars friends, after RoTJ what happens?
Everyone says that the Empire still controls countless worlds and has legions of troops and star ships elsewhere in the Galaxy. But as a movie/game only pleb I don't understand how to reconcile that with the seeming final victory over the Emperor and his Deathstar.
>>315301402
Ground game is almost done. Just gotta implement Jedi and a few other things.
It will take YEARS to complete Jump to lightspeed...
Just kill me.
Would I die if I went at light speed in space, even if my craft gradually accelerated up to light speed? Also, wouldn't moving at light speed be really dangerous. You might ram in to a giant asteroid, or even small debris could penetrate your craft at that speed.
>>315301482
The Empire isn't a chicken with its head cut off it's a hydra. In the old EU there was a ton of in-fighting, in the new one it somehow dissolved itself after a year even though that doesn't make sense.
>>315301550
Going into hyperspace blindly is fucking retarded and could easily kill you. A ship's navicomputer is programmed with routes through space from which are safe to travel through.
>Y-wing
>not F-111 or B-1
>>315301482
The Rebellion crushed the Empire forces at Endor because Sheev used super mind control on all Imperial forces in the same sector to make them fight more effectively. When he died, his mind control went away and they all got super confused, had their intelligence stat reduced to 1 and shat their pants.
Afterwards the Empire splintered into dozens of different factions who were busy trying to take over and the Rebels kept pushing towards the Core Worlds. Also, dozens of worlds supposedly joined the Rebellion every day after their victory.
Then Thrawn came along, united what was left of the Empire and kicked the Rebellion's ass all over the galaxy. Until he had his secret cloning facility blown up by Luke Skywalker and his super special awesome girlfriend. Then Thrawn got stabbed to death by an angry alien manlet, and the Rebellion was pretty much victorious and managed to get most of the galaxy to join their New Republic.
Haven't read any further than that.
>>315301482
Without the Emperor to keep a firm boot planted up their collective asses, all the Moffs (regional governors) splinter off and make their own factions. Even with the Emperor gone, the government and infrastructure and troops of the Empire are still there, used by the Moffs in their attempts to carve out their own sectors of space

Wasn't the Falcon's speed referring to its superb hyperdrive?

Thrawn, The Fel Empire, Return of Exar Kun and the Yuuzhan Vong.
>>315303438
oh and Han and Leias son becoming a new Sith Emperor in order to give the Galaxy an enemy to unite them all against.
>>315302086
Good thing you stopped.
First an alien race immune to the Force and on a major anti-Force jihad swoops into the galaxy and bioforms a bunch of worlds. And Chewbacca gets crushed by a moon and dies.
Then Han and Leia's older son reforms the Empire and become Palpatine 2.0, kills Luke's wife, then gets killed by his twin sister.
>>315303438
not anymore
>>315303850
did they recall and pull every book from bookstore shelves and then burn any mention of them in the internet?
>>315303403
Yes, it was a Corellian Corvette with a stolen and oversized hyperdrive. They had trouble getting it to start up sometimes because of the power draw.
Also, remember that the Kessel Run has some BANANAS gravity wells that fuck you up if you try to straight-shoot it. Most ships do this exaggerated zig-zag set of jumps to keep themselves from dying. Han's number, if real, meant that he had to do some true bullshit in skirting the edge of gravity wells. If you get to close, your ship shears in half from the gravitic differential.
>>315303821
>And Chewbacca gets crushed by a moon and dies.
I don't know why everyone fucking pisses bitches and moans about that. yeah it sucks they killed Chewbacca but he got one of the coolest deaths in fiction.
>>315303821
>kills Luke's wife
still mad
>>315291704
That bridge window was actually a very small part of the whole bridge structure. The A-Wing hitting that exact spot was a one-in-a-million thing.
>>315304046
So far the new canon hasn't been better. Some of the books are almost okay.
>>315303821
>kills Luke's wife
FUCK
>>315304394

>>315297348
It's a destroyer-class vessel, like the kind you'd see in a naval setting, but it roams the stars.
>>315303821
>And Chewbacca gets crushed by a moon and dies.
Still better that being killed by Gary Starkillar
>>315303821
>Chewbacca gets crushed by a moon and dies
I suppose that was the only way to take him out of this world.
>>315304682
True. When has a Star Destroyer ever destroyed a star?
>>315304584
Don't make fun of my starfu

>>315306192
Yeah, but there were designed to fight torpedo boats didn't they?
Think the size in naval goes like boat->frigate->destroyer->cruiser->old carriers->battleship->modern carrier
>>315306396
That's a lot less impressive when you learn that class of Covenant ship is so old it predates their use of shield technology.
What's wrong with Rogue Squadron again?
>>315306572

Good comparison. I agree. What would be an A-10? Bwing? Kwing?
There is literally nothing wrong with the yuuzhan vong series
>>315290039
This shit's so great. Why did the space battles blow in the prequels?
>Ep 1: A kid who can't figure out how to fly a space ship, completely trivialises the danger he is in.
>Ep 3: The whole dogfight focuses on tiny droids on obi-wans ship and anakin using sheev spin to avoid missles.
The only good thing was that inception noise from those bombs in AOTC.

>>315310280
William Sessions told me winners aint no use no drugs, to this day i've yet to win anything.
Also squint your eyes.
>>315309390
Better. Massive gravity generators that mess with all hyperdrives in the area, which makes it impossible for Rebel scum to pull off their fancy hit-and-run tactics until the ship is destroyed or they leave the field's range.
>>315301440
I miss my ARC-170 with the Trandoshan Repeaters on it. Made it look like it was fitted with a massive automatic slug-thrower.
>>315291629
I would say they were flying patrols. Always keep a few squadrons just flying around in case an enemy jumps in. But they're flying pretty erratically and not in formations.
>>315298917
I hate it when in Gundam, they shoot the bridge and the entire ship explodes. There really should be some backups in case the bridge is hit, the rest of the ship should be able to function somewhat.
>>315311694
they're playing Notice Me, Senpai with Vader
>>315310628
>See Dooku
>"Shoot him down!"
>"We're out of Rockets sir! We also don't really feel like using our forward cannons and to be quite frank I just don't think it would be very sporting to end the war almost immediately by killing him with our four pin-point accurate beam weapons. So let's just follow him and give his fighter escorts time to fly behind us and hit every molecule around our ship except our ship until you and your master get off, meanwhile we'll tell our rear gunner to hold his fire as well. Also be sure not to use any of your force abilities in any way to slow down his bike or the fighters escorting him, let alone making them crash."
>>315304584
She's the best female character in all of Star Wars.
>>315311694
The bridge shouldn't even be exposed in the first place it should be in the middle of the ship and use cameras/sensors. Windows are useless except for your break room/observation deck.
>>315311840
you try hitting a tiny speeder bike with non-tracking weapons
>>315309253
Apparently, according to recent books it also accidentally counters normal commercial traffic, making it viable only in remote regions (unless you want to accidentally your whole supply network).
>>315312104
Like the beam weapons that don't need to track because their point of impact can be adjusted while they're firing? Am I also to assume these ships with gimball canopies don't have the technology to lock onto a moving object with other weaponry and fire?
>>315311919
A heavily protected CIC would make a lot more sense, but starship combat in SW is less about making sense and more about putting WW2 carrier battles into space.
>>315310760
It could also mess with the guidance of proton torpedos.
God tier support vessel.
>>315312297
I'm pretty sure the beam weapons used a whole fuckload of power and weren't really practical for air-to-air combat
the gunships weren't meant for dogfights
>>315306572
The terms cruiser, frigate and destroyer are so fudged around these days that they largely don't mean much.
I mean, Arleigh Burkes are labeled as destroyers yet they fill out the traditional role of cruisers and can operate with the efficiency of a whole WW2 fleet.
Hell, even the fucking Zumwalt is considered a destroyer.
I just hope the new movie has some cool ass dogfights. I don't even give a fuck about lightsaber bullshit or lightning or whatever.
>>315312710
Which is true, however, Dooku was on a bike of sorts and his fighter escorts were staying very close by for the time being. Both were travelling in one direction without any attempt to deviate or shake the gunship not even a mile behind them. Rather than take the opportunity to even attempt to shoot them down with their other weaponry, they did nothing.
Once the Geonosian fighters did deviate to tail and attack the gunship, the rear gunner did nothing to defend the gunship either.
Lucas is a hack who can't write.
>>315312710
Dooku was flying in a straight line on a hover bike.
>>315285008
I would think the X-Wing would be more like the F-18; rather than the F-15
X-Wing could be outfitted with many different loadouts; like concussion missiles, proton torpedo's, heavy rockets and space bombs
F-18 is probably the #1 multi-role in the world since it can do air to air, atgm's, laser guided bombs, etc
>>315298917
Death star is big enough to have its own gravity well.
>>315292302
Actually the A-wing and X-wing were doing a run through the surface of the Super Star Destroyer, not the death star.
>>315301482
Coruscant remains in imperial control for another 5 years. Like the others say, there was a lot of splintering factions within the empire. Eventually the last remnants were pushed back to the outer rim where they kinda stayed. The rebels>new republic never completely destroyed the empire. They would team up to fight the yuuzhan vong and some other stuff. The imperial remnant would eventually turn into the fel empire. Fel empire lasts for a few hundred years.

>implying anyone is better than Kyle Katarn

Jacen was an hero and everything he did was for the good of the galaxy. Luke was a closed minded bigot that didn't understand everything the force had to offer. yfw everything Jacen predicted was true.
>>315314496
Man, I never noticed before how perilously Obi-Wan swings that lightsaber around on a crowded, shaky ship.
>>315313274
The CGI sand deforming when Padme falls is so fucking bad. It's even worse in the scene after this when she gets up.

It's to be expected. The Federation only has a mere fraction of the size or resources of the Empire. The civilizations in SW are considerably older after all.
Where's my Rogue Squadron series of movies Lucas
I'd buy 10 copies of the blu-rays if a movie series was based on the antics of Wedge and WesFuck Rogue 1
>>315319594
keep in mind Star Wars has been a spacefaring society for 10,000+ years while the Federation has only been around for a couple hundred
>>315320193

Star Wars or Star Trek?

Being able to build spaceships in space is an incredibly massive advantage
Like here on Earth, we have to make spaceships so fucking small and as light as possible while attaching massive rockets to them just so they can break our atmosphere
If we were able to build in space, like say grab a passing asteroid we know has metal and stuff and work on building another space station that can actually start constructing ships there
>>315320448
Wars, without a doubt. Half of the Trek Galaxy is totally unexplored by the Federation.
>>315320868
Can you imagine what the updated B-Wing will look like in the NuWars movies?
>>315320448
It doesn't matter, the Star Wars Galaxy is mostly unified under the Republic/Empire and travel from one side to the other is possible in a timely fashion.
In Star Trek the galaxy is divided into a multitude of smaller factions and travel/communication across the galaxy is simply not possible to do. Voyager needed 90 years at max speed to get back to Federation space after all.
Star Wars represents a world after flight was invented allowing everything to be connected, while Star Trek represents a world before the railroad was invented.
>>315320929
Probably won't appear in 7, they'll just be fellating the X-Wing 2.0 until someone gets to make up new designs for the next two movies.
>>315320774
Jedi are definitely waaay overplayed. There's so much more interesting stuff in Star Wars that doesn't have anything to do with Jedi or the Force that never gets explored and the prequels total focus on Jedi only made it worse.
Even Rogue Squadron had a Jedi and he was a total Mary Sue.
>>315321532
Oh shit son, are you dissing my main man Corran?
>>315321428

>using literally the worst weapon to attack something.
How did the rebels ever fucking win ANYTHING?

>>315323307
That always bothers the hell out of me, especially in Star Trek. The space battles in TNG were more like age of sail naval duels and then DS9 gave us ships zipping around mere feet from each other.
At least in Return of the Jedi there's an excuse because they specifically engage at point blank to avoid the Death Star.
>>315323169

The rebellion was losing on every front, they literally never won any major battles except for when Luke was involved directly.

Jamming missiles is different from jamming torpedoes. I'd habeeb it if it was missiles but those were not.
Seems like quite an oversight for somebody that's such a huge fan.
>>315324473
Torpedoes and Missiles are practically the same thing in star wars.
>>315323796
Somebody's watched their share of Robotech/Macross.
>>315324330
It's one of the characters from republic Commando
You got to see all3of them

i cant fucking unsee the tie fighter pilot moving that stick like it was a wheel and going like, doo dee doo..
>>315324473
What are you even talking about? Are you saying that Proton Torpedoes are dummy fire things? Because they're fucking not.

Crime pays.
>>315324330
Yes.
His name is Gregor.
If I remember he was part of some mission, it went wrong and he got amnesia.
Some backwater hick lied to him to get him to work in his bar or whatever, and then the republic droids came along, reminded him of who he was, and then he kicked the ass of every CIS in the city
>>315324729
Wrong, he isn't from republic commando.

>>315323049
Need to watch the show some more.
Scorch was my favorite squad member.
>>315324473
Did you just conveniently ignore the part just before they fired where they were locking on?
>>315323049
WHY DOES NOBODY EVER TAKE COVER?
Why did the Empire build 2 gigantic space stations instead of a fleet of Executors?
That way, you would still have the intimidation factor without the fear of losing a large amount of crew.
>>315325086
Droids are dumb and the clone has over 300 confirmed kills.
>>315325086
Because then it would draw out the fight scene and turn into a bunch of guys blind firing laser guns behind cover for 45 minutes
Though another reason could be that lasers can go through cover
>>315324916
>yfw the Zann Consortium is back in canon
Seeing that Z95 makes me wish SWGEMU would hurry up with JTL. I had a Z95 that ran about as fast as an A-wing. And a Y-wing Longprobe that was basically a flying fortress.
>>315324095
Empire at War is hardly canon.
In any case, what the hell do gravity well projectors have to do with jamming missiles?
>>315325206
>>315325256
The game the clone commandos are from is entirely based on taking cover and moving tactically, though.
>>315325372
Unfortunately, we'll probably get at least EA abortion of a space game, if not more, long before we see the basics of JTL implemented in the Emu.
>>315325647
And it's non-canon. Clones don't use cover.
>>315325372
Oh fuck you anon, you reminded me of pre-CU SWG now...
Goddamn that was the best MMO ever. Fuck the fact that there was barely any content other than crafting, random mission running and only a couple "dungeons"
But the community... man, the community was amazing. The games forced interaction by needing to actually go to a Doctor to heal your wounds and buff you, going in to the cantina and watching almost naked Twileks dance so you can heal your Battle Fatigue
Then there was the 10 minute starport waits, where you had to fucking sit at the starport and wait for the shuttle to come just to get off planet. But even that was able to become fun because of the social interactions
>>315325760
Commandos show in The Clone Wars, the CGI one.
Therefore, they are canon.
>>315326019
Commandos = canon
Using cover(from the video game) = not canon
>>315322814
Wasn't this what all Y-wings looked like (plus or minus the gun turret) before they decided to just not replace the armour because they broke down so often and it hampered repairs?
>>315325831
Quality of life improvements are why MMOs are dying as a genre
You have to interact less and the game becomes more focused on the actual gameplay, which is generally garbage.
MMOs are a social game primarily.
>>315292864
literally the best opening shot in any movie
Anyone else happy as fuck the EU is dead?
All I ever see is everyone being butthurt about it, I will miss Kyle Katarn though
>>315326134
The Rebels and Stormtroopers use cover in the first five minutes of the first movie, people have definitely discovered using cover in Star Wars.
>>315326257
Goddamn the memories of hanging around the starports... waiting in lines for Doctor buffs, then heading to Dantooine to farm 35k credit missions so I can buy a new set of Knucklers for my TKM character
You want to know what started to fuck up SWG? It wasn't the CU. It was JTL. It basically made starports useless because you could just instant travel between planets with your starship
>>315326484
The EU was a huge mixed bag in terms of quality, so naturally retconning it all generated a ton of mixed feelings.
>>315326484
I'm glad the Vong are gone. So glad... so glad that Jason is gone as well. God he was as bad as emo vader in episode 2
Not glad that Thrawn trilogy is gone, or Rogue Squadron
Also not glad that my waifu Tahiri is non-canon now
>>315326621
It could have been implemented better
Have you read the lead creative dev's diaries about SWG? It's amazing what could have been
I imagine if the game had a couple more years development then it would still be alive
>>315324284
Halo 3 fluff explicitly stated that there were about 200 million humans left by the time the war had moved to Earth. Obviously sci-fi writers have no sense of scale so that could be off by as much as a couple billion, but it's pretty fucking apparent that, compared to how they began the Human-Covenant War, humanity had been blown back to the stone age.
>>315326856
I haven't, got a link?
Also, read this if you were a SWG fan:

>>315325760
sometimes they do, sometimes they don't
I suppose it boils down to how the creators want to move the story along.
can I join the thread guys?

He talks about the early development of the game rather than the later parts
I think it's interesting

so is the redesign

I never read past NJO, didn't they turn Tahiri even and put her on Jacen's side? Cause damn that character got knocked around a lot.
>>315327885
Yeah, Tahiri went dark side for awhile, developed another personality from the Vong torture, eventually merged with it, and she did fight Jason after he went full Darth Vader.
But fuck man, why did they have to kill off Anakin. He was one of the better characters in the books; not to mention them also killing off Chewie by dropping a moon on him
My fetish of having a tomboy, bare-footed girl dominating me got triggered then
>>315286904
wait...yellow squadron was called Aquila?
>>315326919
Just looked this shit up because of how dumb it sounded- that was the amount of people LIVING on Earth itself (not counting any evacuees). Not the total surviving population.
>>315328203
There were originally going to kill Jacen and have Anakin be the one to get the unifying force but George Lucas himself mandated that they switch it around because he thought people would get confused about having "two heroes named Anakin".
>>315328264
Yep, Aquila was their official name, it's on all the unit patches and stuff and it's the name of their theme on the soundtrack.
>>315328571
Fuck Lucas so much. The hack came up with one of the most innovative universes we've imagined and then completely fucked a lot of it up
You can tell why Episode V is the best Star Wars because Lucas wasn't super involved in it like the other 2
AlsoJar Jar fucking Binks and Ewoks defeating AT-ST's
>>315328571
God damnit George, I thought he didn't give a fuck about the EU

Good job LA
>>315299763
i always assumed its because the brand new top-secret space station was massively understaffed.
>>315323169
I'd totally watch a show like this
>>315328845
He didn't care, but when they switched to a new publisher and decided to do the huge 25 book NJO story arc they had to ask for his approval, since he did own Star Wars after all.
>>315319149
>>315319028
>>315318924
>>315318829
I can't put into words how much that I hate that these were made a thing.
>>315329513
i always liked how the pilot riggle in pain for that split second before blowing up. the systems catching on fire and sparking in the back looked like it hurt like shit.
I think we can all agree on best boat.
>>315326175
No, there were like four pretty radically different versions. As big a difference as between the F-8 Crusader and the A-7 Corsair II.
>>315298917
There's no reason for the fucking ship to drive nose down into the death star because the bridge got blown up. Did it cause the rest of the crew to suddenly start acting like retards?
That's honestly one of the dumbest moments of the series.
>>315330675
>Naboo level
>It Aint Meesa starts playing
>>315294935
Don't forget that the TIE fighter was built specifically as a countermeasure to the Y-Wing, it was that much of a threat
>>315330923

Why are they so good
That and B1s
