Its possibly a A-Wing Cockpit, but Z-95 sounds accurate, or B-Wing.

Ohhh screenies!



BOO!


well it isn''t all that bad.....slightly more satisfying than fireworks demystified, but lazy. All these "TBA Summer '04' titles are gonna need to be changed guys. I hope you get some leverage over at LA for some fulfilliment on these 'promises'.


Some people before me have posted that SWG is falling apart. In some cases I agree. However, WoW and EQ2 are not gonna be better alternatives. Each new MMORPG that is released, gets slightly more complicated and 'state of the art' *oooohhh....* ..... .... and buggy. I say the devs focus on major revamping and bug squashing until the game is nice and solid. THEN they could start adding some cool additions....


You guys can't work on a better roof when the foundation's slippin' ....



nice screenies though.... too bad they had to replace the FF.

Did a synapse actually fire in Austin? Are the stupid TIE fighter rocket engines actually gone?

Haden Blackman: It's definitely inspired everyone on the development team. We're very determined to capture the feel of the X-Wing and TIE Fighter titles. In many ways, we're looking at Jump to Lightspeed as "X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter" online - much of our focus is on that dogfighting experience.

I like the screenshots but 4 days b4 a publish, summer 2004 almost over, JTL beta scheduled to start, and the correspondents summit happening, I guess I was looking for something more.


P10 - Info on converting the hologrinders into the jedi credits. ( I will never be a jedi but at least it would have been good info.) Maybe a new wallpaper depicting the jedi trials. (I am sick of the current one we have been looking at for almost 3 months now.)


Summer 2004 - I know it has been stated in a few other posts here. But hey Summer 2004 is about to turn into Fall 2004. Lets see the rest of the ships, planets, and species. Even if you dont give em all away at least give us a bone.


JTL Beta- Even though I am not even registered. I know a lot of people that would be glowing just to hear some details about the beta test for JTL


Correspondents Summit - Hey you guys spent a lot of money to fly them all out there. Put a group photo or something like that to show us that you care so much about our issues you are willing to do something like that. Then just give us a vague outline of topics you are gonna be discussing.


Again the screens were cool and it just makes me want JTL even more.

Screens seems great, but I´m afraid the bussines market press the dev team to launch this product before is all done, like the original game.

Nowdays only friends, (and only a few, almost all are gone), remain me at this game.


Oh well, good luck to all.

I'm betting my lifefortune on that that's a Z-95 Headhunter cockpit!... Both A-wing and B-wing cockpits are larger and not as long as a Z-95 but broader.

Just when I think the game is about to get Star-Warsy... another screwup.


HEY DEVS:


TIE Fighters are called TIE Fighters because of the acronym for Twin Ion Engine. One lens flare in the back of a TIE is blatently wrong.


/frustrated







there's no need to repost ALL the quotes but for all you "tards" out there TIE fighters have always been single THRUSTER crafts... TWIN ION ENGINES are just what drives them... think of the thrusters as the wheel... the engines power these "wheels"... as I said before these TIE fighters are correct with the looks... take a look at the old micro machine TIE models and the somewhat larger Star Wars action fleet ships... if you could find a back view of them in the movies you'd notice they are correctly done.. in Return of the Jedi you can clearly see it after they reach the deathstar and the rebel pilot says, "They're heading for the medical frigate" on the TIE intercepters its clearly seen so **edit** and let them do there job graphics wise...


and yah I do kinda think the FF was alil half assed done but oh well what can we do besides gripe and cry... while you guys are doing that I'll be hunting for FS exp... screw jedi just lemmi get a second slot...
