Hello...
I do read all these posts...
And... I have a feeling that I've mistaken a door
Lots of you here say UE is so difficult...
While it is not. It is just BW. They truly do not have a power the Confeds have.
So - a little group of BW pilots does their best.
I say - it is a realistic story enough...
And as for surviving - I say there's no too much problems with that.
I've flown WC, WC2, WC3, WCIV... SO, now - UE...
And I would say that WC is REALLY EASY when talking of surviving. and HARD ENOUGH when talking
of escort missions.
WC2? Well... It was difficult enough to survive, espesially after WC, where enemy could fly only a straight line.
But Standoff is in no way similar to WC2.
Guys! It's a ... not best copy of Privateer physics.
In no way experience of WC2 would help in Standoff.
No shields, no armour, no weapons... - I've never seen SUCH A SLOW PROJECTILE BEFORE!
You fire a mass-driver, and enemy would fly a circle around you, before the projectile hits him...
And lasers? They are very slow, too... It's VERY HARD to fly Standoff. Very very hard...
A single hit - and your shields are gone!
I've blown hundreds of Talons in Tarsus, and now I can't deal with them flying a Stiletto...
Such a slow afterburner...
Well... I'd better stop now.
Anyway - I haven't made a single game, and you have made a very nice one.
And not just a nice one - but a WC one.
For that I do say 'thanks a lot'.
But... If you changed a physics a bit, it be so nice...
