Re: Asguard Shipset
 

Hey Baal

As a huge stargate nut the common spelling is asgard, or at least the one most fans use, which makes it official since no-one dares correct them http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif Same with Goa'uld.

Although i've already asked this question before, and e-mailed ryan about it, with no reply i'm afraid, good luck to you though. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

But for all you stargate fans i've heard their releasing a Stargate SG1 PC Game, no specifics however.

Re: Asguard Shipset
 

You know they should have released a FP shooter for Stargate a long long time ago. I mean the game has such a rich history and unlimited gaming potential that game based upon it should have been made YEARS ago.

Re: Asguard Shipset
 

FPS? No thanks. How about a RPG? Now that would be a worthwhile game to make. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: Asguard Shipset
 

I'm sad to hear that he didn't follow through with his Asguard shipset. What he did do was very detailed and made good on the Asgard motiff. If he had made it I doubt I would have ever played with a different shipset. I may have to just settle for being the Goa'uld.

Re: Asguard Shipset
 

Yeah i agree, though i'm totally stumped on what they should do. I really wish they'd make a Space Empires-esque Game based on stargate, i think that would be incredible. But a FPS would be cool too. If they went the FPS way i hope they have the diplomatic way with other cultures and the consequences of taking technology back and such instead of a "Jaffa/shoot/kill/quote witty remark" style game. Although that would be cool too. Most game styles would probably work in the stargate universe because it is so rich and diverse.

Wait! I'm askign for all this from a Computer Game??? Never going to happen (unless MM make it http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif )

But i would say such nice things about Stargate since i'm a fan of the show. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

Edit: I agree Baal, it was an incredible preview, although perhaps we should pester other Shipset designers to take it up http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif An updated Goa'uld set would be nice too.

Re: Asguard Shipset
 

Hmmm... Stargates connecting most worlds, some without stargates... move populations and troops through, making for a more troop-centered game. Make starships harder to make, so there is less of them and space battles are more intense. Ancient technology has to be researched after finding it. Have to make troop transports to attack those worlds without stargates. Warp points would be generated by ships... larger ships would be able to warp farther than small ships. Warp points would then dissapear after being used. Lots and lots of neutral AI, ready to become subjugated http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Asguard Shipset
 

So does anyone have that picture of the Asgard ship attacking the borg ship (I think)? It would be a good starting point for someone that wanted to pick up the set for contruction.

Re: Asguard Shipset
 

Oh god, we have the beginnings of a Stargate Mod!

Well we really don't need to worry about Warp points, i'm sure Andres Lescano had a hyperspace feature on his star wars mod, that would work. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif But i've always wanted a stargate mod.

Also, My wish for SEV would be some planets have civillisations on them like in stargate, some advanced and some not that could give benefits or disadvantages.

E.G. Advanced Culture increases construction time on the planet.
Primitive Culture keeps attacking your people and destroying facilities.

As for that picture i wish i did Baal, but i don't http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

Re: Asguard Shipset
 

Well you know, I bet Ryan could have that picture floating around his hard drive still.
