Sup,

I have been playing siege alot lately, its a pretty new game mode. After about 2 weeks though I got am getting tired of the same 3 maps over and over.

When I 1st started playing I was super pumped about all the cool new siege maps ppl would be making, then it dawned on me? Can we make 3rd party seige maps?

Is there any rumor of this being part of the SDK?

Someone should make a pure swoopwar map that takes place on tatooine or something. Hell, I'd like to see more single player swoop levels.

Sup,

No repawn seige maps would be cool, kinda like CS.

Also for the "all out war" maps luke, is talking about, the commander should be a person, they need to be intellegent enough to run, fight back, etc.

Like, one commander is vader?
The other Luke?

NPC's are to dumb to be in Siege.

I've thought about how to do detention center escape and just can't picture it. The fact that the rebels can respawn in a Siege game would kind of blow the storyline for me. Everybody gets crushed in the garbage masher? No problem! Your spawn point is in the detention block at that point. ;p

Vader is the coolest villain, bar none!

How about Jar-Jar and the Duff Man skin?

I was thinking Saddam because he's so hard to find.

So true. Thrawns PWNS, damn coolest villain in Star Wars ever (well, "villain".... I believe he was just misunderstood). :)

Thrawn would be great, or better yet we don't use any main characters at all. Just a regular battle to kill the opposing side's Commander, I'm sure, Jacen, you'd hate to see Thrawn's head get shot off repeatedly by a rebel soldier. :P

Sounds good, Luke, that's what I first pictured myself with siege as well. Gaitn battles, and PEW! POW! BOOOOOM! Etc.

Perhaps Grand Admiral Thrawn (long live him!) for the Empire?

Lol, no, I have a strong feeling the maker of the map would recieve a good number of complaints for that. I'm thinking along the lines of like, Mon Mothma for the Rebels and some random Imperial Officer for the Empire.

What I want to see one day is a straightforward, all out war siege map. Perhaps terminate the commander style. An NPC Commander would be in the core of each base, which is places FAR apart from each other, and in between all the combat starts out and works it's way from there. Endor or Kaashyk would be an ideal location. ^_^

oo dam, someone's thinking! I'm still trying to figure out how to start modding and skinning and mapping lol.
But that would be a sic seige map :)

And the taking of the sheild generator on Endor. That could work.

Naboo? Isn't that the episode we're all trying to forget happened?

How about one that's the opening firefight on the ship in Episode IV? The rebels win by putting the death star plans and droids in an escape pod. Can you limit the number of each type on each side? In that one the rebels should have no Jedi , and the Imperials should have exactly one.

Behold! The unofficial SDK!

http://www.jk2files.com/file.info?ID=20629

Quote from the description: "The good news is every other file you'd need is included, as well as siege files for you would-be siege map creators."

But no, it isn't the SDK needed for JAmod, so don't get your hopes up. :)
