I was thinking of taking my old Joystick out of mothballs. Lag back in the dialup days kept me from playing so much. Anyone want to give this a go? :)

My favourite is either the X-wing or the Interceptor. Tie defender just becomes too overpowered for my taste. The missile boat, I just don't like. Didn't like it in tie fighter, don't like it in X-wing alliance:)

Because if you head over to the star wars discussion and look through the threads to find the one about good star wars books to read you will see that I pointed to the books about Corran Horn months ago, and Jaina is in NJO which I've been reading obviously proving that I did not just look it up. So....Nyah :P

Well, I don't think Rogue Squadron would make too much sense if we're all Jedi whilst no member of RS (since Luke gave Wedge command) is a Jedi, LOL.

I guess getting a server first would make sense, but why not think ahead? If this gets really popular, what are we gonna do? Are we going to create a forum for XWA? Will there be classes to teach all the new players the basics and show them tips on playing? Maybe organize specific times to fight on the server (if we get one, servers don't grow on trees ya know) so people aren't looking at the status page for the server for an hour and have it be empty, then stop looking as someone decides to play. Just trying to consider all the possibilities.:)

No, it's not an expansion. So, DJ, are we gonna get this thing started? Or are we just gonna sit around talking? I also have some more annoying questions: Are we just gonna fight in whatever teams we want? Or are we gonna have specific squadrons made of different JA members and those squadrons can train together and fight the other squadrons and try to become the best squadron there is? If we do that I want my squadron to be Rogue Squadron. All Rebel fans join me!!!:alliance::D

To roll you need to hold down your roll key and move your mouse to the left and right. I *highly* reccomend getting a joystick for this game. I broke my mouse trying to do a tight loop once. :)

XWA is a pretty old game from LEC made back in the late 90's.. It's the latest in the series of XWing based flight sims. Yes you can fly some types of cargo ships, and yes you can blow up xwings. :)

Man, I used to love that game. I'm sure it's buried around the house somewhere. As soon as I find it, I'll be ready to fly with you guys. Well, not with Jacen, he's an Imp. BTW, Tie Defenders are for n00bs!:P:alliance::alliance::alliance:

Damned impressive. I've still got one of the shots set as my desktop background:). But it made me think about how brilliant a sequel to XWA could be...
