A New Wing Commander game?

Rikaelus said:
Uhh..yeah...did you happen to notice that large Kilrathi fleet that the Nephilem destroyed?
Um, that fleet certainly wasn't large. Kilrathi have some obsolete warships, but not much in a way of new ones, and even with the old ships there are restrictions.
As far as the Kilrathi are concerned, or atleast a faction of them, the war isn't over.
And those few fractions are insignificant and can be squashed by the Confed with ease.

We have a new hero, new enemy, and new creator; hense, it's not the same as Wing Commanders past.
Prophecy isn't the first WC game to NOT be made by CR.

They have a prophecy of the greatest evil that could destroy everything; and yet a single Confed Supercarrier took out their initial attack and entry point.
You're missing few key points here. First, we don't know if the Nephilim are the star gods from the Kilrathi prophecy, second, though the Midway did defeat the bug fleet, it could have been a part of the Nephilim strategy. How do you think the bugs in SO got to Proxima and made a new wormhole? A system that's two jumps away from Sol? Most of the fleet was distracted by the Bugs in the Kilrathi systems, that they basicly left an opend dore for another fleet, however small, to move in.
The Kilrathi feared what Confed put down relatively easy.
We don't know if what we defeated is the same thing as what the cats fear, second, even if the bugs are the star gods, we definetly didn't put them down relatively easy. The war has only just began……

Non-WC fans are welcome here... as long as they don't cause any problems. We have many discussions that have little or nothing to do with WC, so he can hang around.

Rikaelus? that you?
wow, haven't seen you online for a long time!
you still working on that WC TNT project?


No..unforunatly. I lost touch with them and the webpage hadn't been updated in a long time so I thought it went under. Checked the page the other day and it's still rolling. I emailed Jan but haven't gotten anything back yet.

I dunno about that... but at any rate, ICIS seems to indicate that the Kilrathi are far more interested in fighting each other than anyone else.

I miss planetary missions, or disabeling ships.
Yeah... I miss those things too. Damn those budget-cutting financial management people!

The quality was IMO, worse than WC3
Oh, sorry. I should have said that I meant in terms of sound and image quality. Naturally, other than that they were worse than WC3. Like you said, damn them!
smile.gif


In regards to the Bugs, the Midway wasn't the only carrier involved in the fray... it simply happened to be the one we're on. Remember, in WC1 it seemed as though the 'Claw liberated Vega Sector all by itself... and in WC2, the Concordia did the same thing in Enigma Sector. At any rate, it's like EW said. If the bugs had a proper AI, you wouldna be complaing right now... you'd still be playing Mission 1

Well, yeah. They have to determine who's going to be the next emperor.

Damn you evil EA for screwing up a great game!!

Actualy, IMO the image quality was worse most of the time. True, the SFX looked much better, but the briefings and conversations were of lower quality.

In regards to the Bugs, the Midway wasn't the only carrier involved in the fray... it simply happened to be the one we're on.
Yup, the Midway gets help from the Eisen later in the game. And obviously other parts of the fleet move up behind the Midway as quickly as they can when Confed gets the message.Also, the Kilrathi must have some ships that can carry fighters (though not neccessarly carriers).

At any rate, it's like EW said. If the bugs had a proper AI, you wouldna be complaing right now... you'd still be playing Mission 1

.
Well, probably not mission 1.

6 Morays wouldn't be that tough. Though the second mission would be a bitch. 'bout 30 fighter in all.

Well, I don't really remember. And I'm too busy re-playing StarCraft (it really is a great game. Buy it!) to re-play Prophecy. Maybe next month.

I was trying to go easy on you. But if you insist…. You’re guilty of breaking at least five of them, I can’t be sure about the worshiping and sacrifice stuff though.

1. You refer to your home as "Sol III"
