-These kind of custom sounds make the game just so good. GJ :thumbs:

-I found the empire was on the losing end :? (ah well, rebellion supporter but for teh sake of balance) Maybe its cus the death watch gots a Z6 Machine gun with em

-Quite surprised at the Clone Wars rich weapons. I was surprised that the Death watch didnt feature some deadly illegal GCW weapons like say the Disruptor rifle from JKA.

-Imperial skins remind me of novatroopers: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Novatrooper

-Katarn armored trooper must be a reference to the katarn armor gainable in SWG huh? the skins is d*** > (EDITED BY ME BEFORE ANYONE ELSE COULD) similar(albeit not as green) GJ.

-Hero for the Empire must be some random jedi meant to represent a party going inside the Bunker for mando armor crafting I guess.

-On that note maybe you could make an assault era with the DW guys against a party of the 7 combat professions(i.e jedi, commando, BH etc.)

-The skins have very nice variety, :thumbs:

-Nice Super B-Droid sounds

-Why's an OOM droid there?

-And I am guessing most of this forest stuff won't be in the final version?

All in all, your sides ROCK :thumbs: very well done indeed.

Lol more on the note of the OOM, the color scheme ur using were for commanders, not engineers. You can see that both schemes are in fact, different. IMO that kind of OOM should'nt be running around with a fusioncutter, but iz ur map *shrug*

Also, wonder if you can localize to ahve the droids die by Unit Numbers. Killing a B2 Super Battle Droid name Tighe Bo-whatever gives me nervous feelings about the sentience of droids now.... :runaway:

Wow, great. I was really feeling like I could take on the entire enemy team (sorry about that) with that wraith. The only thing that looked of was that the Death-Watch heavy trooper (with the shotgun) tends to try and use his shotgun in long range and switches to his sidearm when in close-range.

And on a side note, I personally didn't experience any unbalanced sides.
EDIT:
(small bug) The Super battle droid has no sounds for his squad orders.

"Diet Dr. Pepper" is an all right word depending on its context. Anyway, thanks to those who replied with the awesome feedback.

It may be easier to win as the Death Watch most of the time, but it's not impossible to win as the Empire (just fight harder).
-Quite surprised at the Clone Wars rich weapons. I was surprised that the Death watch didnt feature some deadly illegal GCW weapons like say the Disruptor rifle from JKA.
So that's what it was... well, let's just say I wanted to use an automatic weapon (WESTAR-M5).
-Katarn armored trooper must be a reference to the katarn armor gainable in SWG huh? the skins is d*** > (EDITED BY ME BEFORE ANYONE ELSE COULD) similar(albeit not as green) GJ.
Yep.
-Hero for the Empire must be some random jedi meant to represent a party going inside the Bunker for mando armor crafting I guess.
I think so.
-On that note maybe you could make an assault era with the DW guys against a party of the 7 combat professions(i.e jedi, commando, BH etc.)
Can you fill me in on this? To be honest, I've never played Star Wars Galaxies.
-Why's an OOM droid there?
I was working off a description of the sides by RevanSithLord and the OOM droid was one of the Death Watch units.
-And I am guessing most of this forest stuff won't be in the final version?
Yeah, most of the battle will take place in the bunker.
Lol more on the note of the OOM, the color scheme ur using were for commanders, not engineers. You can see that both schemes are in fact, different. IMO that kind of OOM should'nt be running around with a fusioncutter, but iz ur map *shrug*
It was done on purpose for gameplay reasons otherwise the OOM droid would play exactly like the B-1 Battle Droid.
Also, wonder if you can localize to ahve the droids die by Unit Numbers. Killing a B2 Super Battle Droid name Tighe Bo-whatever gives me nervous feelings about the sentience of droids now....
No problem, it will be done.

Sorry, it was the best I could do setting up the range of the weapons.

It was intentional but I'll see what I can do.

Thanks again, guys. I'm glad you all enjoyed playing the map (or with the sides whatever). :)

Well basically the 7 combat professions of SWG: commando, jedi, Bounty Hunter, officer, medic, spy and smuggler.

-The commando could be just the imperial katarn armor trooper(he was featured in the commando preview at the website) armed with rocket launcher or that Z6 rotary.

-BH could be a mando reskin. But this is not the palce for em(confusion) so try reskinning deathstarluke or han? carrying maybe a sniper rifle or heavy blasterrifle?(T21?) And perhaps ultra explosive thermal dets

-Smuggler could be a Han Solo reskin, complete with DL44 or some other fancy pistol(DL18?)

-Medic, dunno what player model to use. Could have the Force Heal buff and some health dispensers. I believe a carbine can be used for this guy? like the SFOR Carbine?

-Officer could have either imp officer(1.3 Unofficial Patch) or reb officer(SWBF1 Con Pack) or perhaps something else. Could ahve every buff(except heals) known to us. A good pistol should finish the job. If there is a weapon that can SPAWN units at ur location this guy should have it.

-Jedi, easy

-Lastly, spy. Should be easy, dunno which playermodel though. Stealth weapon a must. Melee weapons probably recommendation, ranged weapon is also ok. Could have neurotoxin(debuff the magnaguard has)

There, that should help, IF you decide to do it.

Interesting. I think I will do it (eventually). And there are even seven units so that will balance things out, thanks. :)

That was quite the battle, nice job AQT. :)

I suggest making the Stormtrooper's helmet lens brighter or outlined like the Katarns', the bright green markings in contrast to the dark grey armor detract the players perception of some dark colored details in the armor, such as the lens, giving the impression they don't have visible eyes.

I also think the wrist flame thrower of the Death Watch Hero is too similar to the stock one; I find the stock flame thrower weapon pretty much useless since it doesn't deal much damage, I believe a stronger flame thrower -like the one used in BFX- is more effective and useable, so I recommend giving him more... fire power. :wink:

The Death Watch is clearly favored in this map (as mentioned by Codarez) but I'm sure it will work fine inside the bunker.

Thanks for the release.

Thanks, Nihillo and you are welcome. I don't know about the visor, it's looks just right to me. I'll try to make it stand out though. As for the flamethrower, it's actually slightly stronger than the stock one. Maybe it isn't noticeable because I also increased the maximum health of almost all of the units. I think increasing the burning damage just a bit will do the job.

I've realized that the Death Watch is stronger than the Empire. To remedy this, I swapped the buffs between the two teams. The Imperial Officer now has Rage and the Wraith now has Rally. That should balance things out... or not.

Tbh. Nova Troopers were going to be in the map I was going to make after this. Nova Troopers vs a Rebel 'Terrorist' group in a major Naboo city. :p Anyways. Downloading.
Hero for the Empire must be some random jedi
That random Jedi is my SW role-play character. An exile-Jedi. Still with the ways of the Jedi Order (still a little rebellious like Qui-gon though, but somewhat is kind of like Obi-wan, but has the fighting style of Anakin.). If it were a campaign, those Imperial troops would've been 'defected Imperials' to the Rebel Alliance (Karag somehow convinced them. Don't ask me how. Don't want to have to make an explanation.). But in a regular conquest map, this is a regular Imperial Crackdown team assaulting the bunker trying to get rid of the illegal activity.

Thank you guys. If it weren't for AQT, I probably wouldn't have gotten a lot of this stuff done. I would've been more stressed and probably wouldn't have been interested in continuing. If it weren't for AQT, I probably wouldn't have considered continuing and making a series from SWG ideas.

Naboo: Nova Crackdown
Dathomir: Aurilia's Shadow
Lok: IG88's Junkyard Playground (probably will change name later)
Mustafar: Dark Inquisitorium (probably gonna change again on name)

Any more ideas for SWG locations, lemme know.

I've got a ocuple ideas...

Tatooine: Rebel Hunt (or something like that)

Corellia: Mountainous Battleground
(I think a snowy, hilly, foresty terrain would be cool)
or maybe:
Corellia: Battle in the Agrilat Swamps

Well, those are just some ideas for locations, the names kinda stink, so play around with them if you want.

LOL never thought anyone would do SWG related maps. I'll be waiting :thumbs:

IG88s Junkyard Playground should SO have bomb droids.(if you played the heroic encounter)

Lemme see, if you are REALLY devoted: Battle for Tansarii Point Station(space or ground)
Locked
