But that's false.
EA has monopoly on SW vidya.
Disney has been simply on a milking spree for a long time now, releasing compatibility patches for old shit to milk it.
Petroglyph even explicitly confirmed they aren't working on EAW2 or any new game for Disney.

>>389554553
I already knew it has to be shit considering it's a not well renowned mod.
The only mods for EaW/FoC worth giving a shit about:
EaW: Conflict in Space
FOC: Thrawn's Revenge, Republic at War, Rise of the Mandalorians, Awakening of the Rebellion, Phoenix Rising, Battlefront Commander

Out of those, only AotR and RotM aren't on Workshop yet. Although Battlefront Commander isn't uploaded properly so its custom AI isn't working because the devs are too retarded to realize custom AI won't work unless you pack it into a .meg archive.

>>389554723
I don't need to give a game a chance if seeing video of it (Kinect one for example) is enough to make me vomit in disgust. I actually remember playing Droid Works demo forever ago though.

So how do you play EaW?
I always just build hypervelocity canons on every planet and wait till i can build Venators.

>>389555240
You can't do that on non-vanilla AI, so basically in mods like Republic at War you'd get fucked.

Also, lets remember how bad of a company they are on top of that, with all the studios they've killed.

okay friend

>>389557902
I wouldn't know as I've never played Warhammer, but you build a fleet of ships, either Rebel or Imperial, and battle it out. Your ships move a set distance forward each turn (you can adjust the pitch when it's your turn, but you have to designate adjustments to movement speed ahead of time), and you have other actions that can be programmed a few turns in advance. There's a lot of prediction since so many actions have to be planned several turns before they're executed, but by and large it's about maneuvering large ships with limited mobility around each other and keeping your opponent in firing distance. There are smaller squadrons too (X-Wings and the like) that have much greater mobility but in general don't dish out as much damage. It's dense, but it's so much fun

>>389557902
More like Battlefleet Gothic, but way better. The Star Wars version of Warhammer is coming next year to kill off GW and Warhammer for good.

Problem is that you need friends to play with obviously, it has no AI.

>>389558920
All of Fantasy Flight's games are outselling GW's shit at least 10 to 1, which is why GW pulled their license away seeing FFG's 40K board game was vastly eclipsing actual Warhammer sales, and come February when Legion launches it is going to destroy GW at their own game. Star Wars is thousands of magnitudes more popular and loved than Warhammer.

>>389556859
KOTOR reboot will definitely take over Mass Effects place completely after Andromedas failure.
Them not finishing that Boba Fetts Level 1313 Uncharted clone was a bad choice, would have been much faster than waiting for whatever that Ass Creed clone is supposed to be.

So far i've lost a shitload of planets, but the ones with hypervelocity canons can easily take anything the CIS throw at them.
The only problem with the tactic so far is the lack of funds. Getting 20k for new canons takes a very long time.

The OT didnt imply ANYTHING like that. Obi-wan makes it clear that the Jedi were a major force for good until the Empire came.

>Making them generals in an army was retarded too
I 100% agree on this though. That was fucking retarded. Obi-wan should have been like Revan, when the Clone Wars came he joined the military and became a Jedi to defend the Republic. Hence why Bail and Leia refer to him as "General Kenobi" and not "Master Kenobi" and Yoda (who should not have joined the military) was mad when Luke called him a "great warrior"

Yes it makes sense that he was a soldier. Not that EVERY Jedi was a General. Read my post again.

It makes sense that when the war broke out, Obi-wan joined the military and became a General. Hence why Bail and Leia refer to him as "General Kenobi." They know him as a military leader and not a Jedi.

However, Yoda should not have been a General, he should have never joined the military and the war. This fits well with how upset he was when Luke refers to him as a "Great Warrior." If Yoda was a great general it makes Luke's statement perfectly valid but if Yoda was never a soldier it would explain why Yoda rejects that title

They're literally psychic diplomats that have been around since the formation of the republic. Obi-wan says:

The implications here are numerous in contradicting you.

1. The jedi order was well respected enough to be galactic protectors
2. They held this roll for an extremely long time,. Showing they were reliable
3. An order of galactic protectors would have to number many more than dozens

So get fucked with your headcanon

"Wars don't make someone great, regardless of how well you do in them. "

That is simply a false statement and yes I know Yoda says it. Wars can make people great legends (Attila the Hun, Napoleon, Caesar just to name a few)

The prequels then portray Yoda as just that, a great warrior who lead his troops to victory. The term a "great warrior" is a perfectly valid term to use in his case because he was a warrior who was great. Hence the problem with his ESB line, he shouldnt be getting on Luke's case about looking for a warrior because Yoda IS one.

>of course they were going to join the war to protect it.
The problem isnt that there are Jedi going to war. Its that EVERY JEDI was automatically a General except Padawans who were Commanders and Yoda, who hated being told he was a warrior, was the Supreme Military Commander of the Grand Army of the Republic.

The Jedi enlisting in the military to fight the Clone Wars = perfect. Explains why Obi-wan is seen as a military leader and not a Jedi

Yoda being a great warrior even though he refuses to be called one, dumb.

>>389564030

>>389564457
Nothing dumb about it, he was forced into the position, like all the Jedi. They had no real say in the matter. If they said no to the Senate, they'd be considered a liability and potential traitors and it would bring all sort of shit on them. They had no choice but to join the war regardless of whether they wanted to or not.

Yoda is absolutely correct in that statement. You are incredibly unintelligent that his meaning flew over your head.


Being a "legend" for killing and warfare doesn't make you great, it makes you small. He realized too late that he and all the Jedi fell down this trap and he regrets it immensely, having the wisdom to know he was not great. You have no wisdom for not seeing that.

You're clearly coloring what was in the films with your headcanon anon and it's embarrassing,as well as skipping most of my post. Killing people doesn't make someone great, you can be good at it and well known for it, but it doesn't make you a good person morally or otherwise. The Jedi are so intrinsically tied to the republic and had been for centuries of course they wouldn't say no to joining to protect them, what kind of statement is that? They weren't given a choice to help, it isn't a choice at all it's a duty and a responsibility not something they can refuse to do. They're viewed as wise and powerful by almost everyone so of course they're going to be put in charge.

True, RC has the honor of having one of the wussiest shotguns in gaming. Still, I always liked the game. Being just a random soldier instead of an all-powerful Jedi was great. Same reason I love the space games.

>>389564662
Okay I think you are miss understanding what Im saying. Im not saying that it is unbelievable that the Jedi would fight in the Clone Wars. (Though all of them being Generals is an issue) Im saying the dialog presented in the OT fits better with the idea that many, maybe even most of the Jedi joined the military but some, like Yoda, would have chosen to stay out of the war. Kind of like what happened in the Mandalorian wars. Maybe Yoda didnt want to join the Clone Wars because he felt a great evil [Sideous] and was hoping to wait for it to show itself. (like KotOR)

>>389564858
>Military Leaders like Attila the Hun and Napoleon arnt great leaders.
You are an idiot. In fact, you dont even need to be a military leader to have a war make you great. Churchill could be argued to fit in this category as he was a civilian during WW2.

>good at it and well known for it, but it doesn't make you a good person morally or otherwise.
Great does not equal morally good. That statement has nothing to do with what we are talking about.

>wouldn't say no to joining to protect them,
Im not saying the Jedi should have refused. I would fully expect most of them to aid the Republic. But a more logical way would be for them to enlist in the military. (Hence my Ben being known as a General point)

> they're going to be put in charge.
And I fully believe most would make great Generals. The issue is that EVERY JEDI is IMMEDIATELY promoted to a General, including those who may have never studied a single battle in their life. Its not that they have authority is the issue, its that even those who would make terrible soldiers because of lack of knowledge of warfare (maybe out of disgust for it) are given command of thousands of soldiers.

And most of your post, while perfectly true, doesnt actually counter the fact that Yoda, as we know him now, actually IS a great warrior. This also is skipping the fact that only Mace Windu was better with a lightsaber then Yoda

And were so for a good reason, they are an order of people who are essentially indoctrinated from early childhood for maximum loyalty to the Republic and posses superhuman strength, reflexes and can see like 2-3 seconds into the future. They go through extremely rigorous training for ~20 years of their life as well. They are perfect military commander material.

>And were so for a good reason,
Yes they are excellent leaders. The potential to be a perfect military commander. But there is one thing extremely important to being a good military leader, understand military strategy.

You would never have made Einstein a general despite how intelligent because he doesnt understand anything about military strategy. Given training he could probably turn into a great general however. Thats the point Im trying to make, a Jedi who has never even glanced at anything dealing with warfare wouldnt be ready for warfare. A man who has preached peace and understanding his whole life being given command of 10 if not 100 thousand soldiers and being told "fight the battle of the Sommes" is going to get his men butchered, or he will keep them all alive but lose the battle because he was to afraid to use them (see General McCellan of the American Civil War)

>>389569053
Well for starters, in her books, many of the clones on Kamino were trained by Mando mercenaries, and these mercs provided a cultural identity to the clones based on Mando society. This culture was further explored as her series progressed. I would presume that the fact that Temuera Morrison (Jango actor) is himself a New Zealander, and of Maori decent, her thought was to leverage some of that culture in her stories.
From what limited amount of hate I read, people seemed to dislike what they perceived as a touchy feely take on Mando culture. "They are supposed to be this kick ass group of mercenaries, and she has Skirata talking about feelings, and family, and all this emotional garbage." I think they wanted a cartoon version of a mercenary, warrior culture. I would counter that and say that what she developed actually had some depth. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the Clone Wars show very much, but the Mandalore in that show was pretty lame, and the Mandalore I glimpsed in the hate was shallow, adolescent, and simple.

>>389569242
Only because George Lucas literally fired her for trying to retcon his version of Mandalore from TCW because it made her butthurt. She also contributed to ruining Halo.

It's beyond retarded and totally insufferable. She didn't give the Mando's culture, she made them pure cringe.

I'm going to be honest m8 that's not a good counter argument and doesn't really go anywhere into the realm of what she was actually writing, the idea that she didn't culture build is a pretty stupid and outright wrong too. She didn't paint the Jedi out to be anything like that either.

Lucas didn't care about money.
Reminder that the Clone Wars were done ENTIRELY at a loss and made 0 profit, and yet it kept getting new seasons with ever increasing budget simply because George was doing it for himself and didn't give a shit about raking in gorillions.
It's also why Rebels is so awful, low budget and soulless in comparison, because it was aimed 100% at profit and nothing else.

I'm not so sure, everytime SW shit would release it would sell gang busters, Clone Wars won a couple of awards and it had a high watch rate, etc. I think it's more accurate to say Star Wars just wasn't advertised as much anymore or hyped up as much, it didn't need to be.

Her character is awful.

They did, but he wasn't making anything other than The Clone Wars which no one watched because it had a bad start and an inconvenient time slot. They weren't making games. They weren't doing any movies. The EU books and comics were slowing down. The toys were stagnating with no new material (but at least were still high quality unlike the absolute cheap trash Hasbro is making now). If he had actually tried, he would have seen everyone was clamoring for more.

Bad business decisions. Not the first or last. But the sheer volume of shoe-horned Star Wars merchandise that came from Star Wars under Lucas is almost nauseating.

That doesn't mean he doesn't care about money and that money wasn't the first thing on his mind as far back as ROTJ.

>>389553314
Just give me a true sequel to Kotor.

>>389572269
According to BioWare, TOR is "supposed to be Kotor 3, 4, 5, 6, 7...."

Everyone cares about money anon, point is Lucas wasn't greedy about it. He wasn't a turbokike like Disney are.

Lets travel down the memory lane

I'm not saying he SOLELY cared about money, like some people make Lucas out to be. And like I said in a previous post, him caring about money isn't a bad thing. But at one point, he definitely was money hungry. One good look at the line of toys that came any time after ROTJ and that isn't really a mystery. But good on him for doing non-jewy things with his money.

Maybe he ended up turning a profit since then? Speculation. Interesting info though.

>>389573607
Lucas did go on record to say that Clone Wars was literally a pet project for him and something he was doing out of passion first and foremost, hence why he didn't care about it bombing financially.
1 million for 1 fucking episode is absolutely massive, especially when it's basically a cartoon. And that was at the begining.
The was budget was increased starting with Season 3 and then increased again in Season 5.

EaW was initally marketed as three-dimensional realtime strategy in space plus two-dimensional realtime strategy on planets.
It could be another Homeworld, instead we got 2D-shit with different planar layers for different ship classes
Battlefront was fricking clone of Battlefield with singleplayer mode made from the same set of multiplayer maps and multiplayer mechanics (but with bots instead of people)

You didn't just go there you casual shitstain.

That did a lot of its own shit and was loved by the people and the second game had actual narrated story campaign despite using MP maps.

you tried

>>389576058
Homeworld's 3D is quite literally useless and provides literally nothing for the gameplay since it doesn't matter if you're above or below because you can still shoot all the same. It's a pointless mechanic implemented for no reason with gameplay not taking it into account.

How is wanting more complex mechanics casual?

>How is wanting more complex mechanics casual?
Post above yours. It does literally nothing in Homeworld from gameplay perspective.

>>389576058
>>389576209
For starters, Star Wars was never 3D. Ships in Star Wars that aren't fighters/bombers always fight on "2D" planes because Star Wars is based on 17th century naval warfare.
Secondly, >>389576173

>>389576448

Its implemented in SW a few times, whereby a capital ship jumps into a hyperspace directly below another capital ship for tactical advantage, but I don't know how this could be implemented in a game similar to EaW.
