Its great. But the Animuu throws me off a bit, as well as the Female Pilot. Its just weird as I don't think it fits the Stormtroopers theme. Mostly cause I have never heard of Female Stormtroopers.

It wasn't technically a Stormtrooper by the way - she was a pilot :P

Keep calm and move along.

My gripes with it:

1 - The Tie Bomber corkscrewing around like if it were a fighter and then spewing that "anime missile barrage". Especially the missile barrage.
2 - Every rebel ship blowing up like if it were made of paper, when the TIEs should be doing exactly the same.
3 - The anime style and the tropes that go with it. It simply doesn't fit.
4 - The whole thing being a pro-Empire animation. :P

I kinda liked number 2 and 3 because it offered a new take on things by showing the other perspective. I like number 1 because I find those anime missile barrages very satisfying.

Tobbs' arbitrary opinion of the day.

Keep calm and move along.

Every single rebel fighter/bomber craft in that scene has shields. None of the TIEs shown have shields. Yet the rebel fighters/bombers go boom at the slightest touch/laser/missile while a TIE fighter takes a direct hit to one of its solar panels AND survives to blow up someone.

And no, Tie Bombers have no multi-target tracking and no capability to dump all of their missiles in one go.

I really don't care. Are you seriously getting butt-hurt over this?

Keep calm and move along.

Bleh, no. It's not worth raging over. I'm just conscious that it was all done under the "Rule of Cool".

Which the movies themselves are guilty of. :P

She technically isn't cannon anymore bro. :P

So my point still stands until the new movies come out.

Also mike. All that stuff bothered me too, because its apart of the Anime tropes.

Being Pro-Empire doesn't bother me though. As I love Empire Ships and vehicles. Though the few Rebel ships I like are the B-Wing and Y-Wing.

Another thing to note with the Tie Bomber, they don't carry missiles I am pretty sure at least. I though they dropped Proton/Plasma bombs or something. And are not nearly that maneuverable. Or at least not more maneuverable than an x-wing.

Edit: They do have missiles. But not enough to do what they did in the video without neutering their ability to fight.

This game is gently-carressing beautiful. Best Space battle game I have seen ever.

Do battle Fleet Gothic in this style would be a dream.

Good video for everyone who played Empires of the IV.

I'll be sure to give its F2P component a wide berth, like it were the plague.

I'm interested in a single player campaign though. If they manage to make a good one, I'll buy the episodes.
