I just got that new star was game that came out! It looks pretty cool. I havent played any games like this in 10 years so I'm looking forward to it. Pew pew pew lasers!
I got it for 16% off at GMG cause they're having a sale right now too so super cool!

So my questions in 2 hours when I'm done, what if its actually fun? And enjoying myself? :aaa:

Anyone else playing it or thought about it?

Not really?

The last starwars game I palyed was the battlefronts / Shadows of the Empire.

SoTE was probably the best star wars / space game I've played in a while. That and Rogue Squadron.

I think you can get in the metal dogs and shoot the guns but cant drive it.

The wiki says it was on the same engine as aoe2 but it was the same game down to the trebuchets from the castle. I think jedis ( monks) had a normal attack instead of conversions, but they were mainly for collecting midicholarns back to the jedi church.

Well, it sucks there's only 4 maps but at least the game works and is fun. That's more than most games ship with these days.

Hell you could have paid $60 for Tony Hawks Pro Skater 5...

Game is good fun. Heroes v Villains is probably the best mode imo The 40 player maps are just...dying. constantly and randomly.

I heard this game doesn't even have a server browser which means no dedicated goon server which means there's p much no reason to play it at all.

It's not some masterpiece that elevates gaming to a new level but its very star wars and very fun. Also most of the people playing it are awful and it makes me feel good about myself.
