    Anyone else use to play this mission (and others) only through the cockpit view? Man that was a blast! I'd use the C stick to look around. I even learned how to trip AT-AT's using cockpit view! I had too much time on my hands as a kid, haha.

    Amazing what an increased framerate and resolution can accomplish. The game looks like a solid single A studio quality game, and thats a huge compliment for such an older title.

    The changes to the AI in this game are pretty cool. In the original Rogue Squadron, enemy fighers were basically on rails, flying around the maps on a predetermined path, and would only shoot you if you got in front of them. In this game, fighters' paths are more organic, and they'll actually follow you around. Plus, if they're flying in formation, shooting the fighter in front will cause the tailing fighters to scatter. Pretty cool additions to enemy behavior.

      At least in the latest Star Wars games, the bad guy AIs have more fleshed-out programming, flying in their OWN flight paths and breaking from said paths so that they can shoot you down.

    The Hoth battle is really cool, but crucially it's missing John Williams' symphony music in the background that was in the background in the Hoth battle in Shadows of the Empire, which took it to another level and put you in the action in the movie!

      Less depth than Battlefront 2 overall, removal of classes, butchering of the vehicle system (Tokens, really?) butchering of Hero system (again, tokens?), no gameplay variety, and plagued with DLC which should've been in the game at the start minus Rogue One. No galactic conquest, their Instant Action is horrible, every update brings about more bugs than fixes. No modding support.... I can name more.

    • @julius6889
      @julius6889 8 років тому +1

      While you are correct about this. I do personally belive that the game is worth it, if you are a star wars fan. It honestly has to do with what peoples personal preferences is. You might not like it, that's fine. While i think EA/Dice could've done better, it still is a good game for what it is. Also the Hero system. Perhaps they have made the Hero Token system to sort of like.. Once you are playing as a hero it's going to feel magical, special. In SWBF2 It felt sort of magical to begin with, but once you start messing everyone up, you get hero after hero 1 min after another, makes it sort of boring, you know..?
      That's just my theory.

      Really sad how a game from 2001 captures what Star Wars fans actually want better than a battlefront game in 2015 after waiting like 10 years for a battlefront sequel. And on top of all of that, battlefront 2 was even worse. Sad.

He sounds much older here than he did in the movies because of that.

    Man, the development team wasted alot of resources on the textures that would never have been seen, if it wasn't for 🐬

    I don't get it why around 6:00 the last snow speeders don't get the command to take down that last AT-AT because they can save way more rebels that way

    It's weird how bad this looks at 1080p. Maybe I'm just used to the CRT blur but the game's textures scream overstretched.

      neverable2 It's not you, it's the graphics replacement pack he's using.
      It looks like total _shit._ If he were using the standard graphics, it would look
      far more natural and pleasing.

      neverable2 The funny part is, they say it's an HD-pack for the textures. All they _upgraded_ was a bunch of space background graphics that don't even look like something out of Star Wars.
      The "replacements" for the starfighter/starship/ground vehicle textures are just the original textures with a terrible contrast effect added to them, to give the illusion of high-definition because of the high contrast between colors. The resulting effect looks highly unpleasant and unnatural.
      I even have a comparison here! iteachvader.deviantart.com/art/HD-Textures-513472173

      ***** What follows is subjective. This is my opinion, and I am not stating it as fact.
      I got a good look at the updated version, and it still leaves a lot to be desired, to be honest.
      The starships look like they were made out of a computer screen error, and the starfighters still look either too pale and incorrectly colored (X-wings, Y-wings) or too high in contrast (TIEs). The laser effects are very lacking in depth, making them feel smaller. The space backdrops are _too_ saturated in depth and vibrancy. It's generally unappealing, and doesn't look like Star Wars.
      Bear in mind that I never played this game much, so nostalgic preference plays no role here. I played it once back in 2001 when I was 6, and never played it again until this year. I've been exposed to the original textures just as much as the new ones, and prefer the originals because the textures were _designed_ specifically to look as Star Wars as possible. That's why they look best, even at high resolution. The developers took directly from the source material and made a game from it.
      If you were able to hack the game and emulator to allow for far higher-resolution textures and effects, and were able to recreate the originals in high fidelity with no alteration in graphics contrast, I guarantee that the results will receive universal acclaim from Rogue Squadron fans all over.
