@MrMarket19878 жыл бұрын
As great as the Millenium Falcon is, it's a pain trying to get Gold with it. You can't just fire away automatically with the quad guns and expect good results with how shaky the shots can be. At least the 15 homing torpedoes, weapon toggling(it resets the quad gun firing order so top shoots next each time it's pressed), and just plain ramming small targets due to high shielding and armor made it much more viable for that. Also, I believe shots can be a biiiiit more accurate if you go into 1st person... Just remember you're actually sitting on the far right of the ship when you do.
@TheAirborneRogue8 жыл бұрын
+MrMarket1987 it is more accurate in 1st person, but i'm not sure I would bother using the falcon to get golds on anything but the easier mission (such as the first couple). I always liked the Y-wing the best as it shoots so little that it is by far the most accurate (and if you want a little more firepower you just use the ions) and on Gerrard V you can beat the mission really quickly by taking down the yachts yourself, and use the bombs on those pesky AT-PTs! it also has the best shields and just looks amazing! Downsides are no missiles and its slow speed though :S
@MrMarket19878 жыл бұрын
Oh, I mean in case someone's going for using it in general; Gotta make the most of your gear. And yeah, I love the Y-Wing the most as is. On the plus side due to the game mechanics, chances are if you can see a target you could lock onto with torpedoes from a distance, you can hit it with your toggled double shot or general auto fire if you aim carefully(and since the Y-Wing is the slowest, you can probably exploit the extra time to keep your distance and snipe at them a bit if you know where to find them). As for the Ion Blaster, it's pretty good for extra firepower and aim in a dogfight, almost acting like a pseudo quad gun shot at full charge, but using it does still count towards the accuracy percentage, so one must be clever with each shot or burst unless you know you can hit a lot of targets at once with Advanced bombs elsewhere. ... I would only disagree on the best shields though. It relies on a droid for recovery, and it doesn't tank quite as much as the Millenium Falcon. Granted it is smaller, so it's easier to avoid certain obstacles at least when laying low for cover.
@TheAirborneRogue8 жыл бұрын
+MrMarket1987 Funny In my experience the Y-wing was the tougher, but i could be well be wrong! Y-wing is such as under appreciated fighter/bomber i have high hopes for seeing them again in the new starwars rogue one movie!
@MrMarket19878 жыл бұрын
It's possible they're just as tough as the other then, or maybe I need to get hit more times again and count each, say... rocket hit within a certain timeframe. The thing about the droid does kinda make me favor the Millenium Falcon over the Y-Wing though, since it never stops regenerating health until it goes down as there is no droid to perma-damage. One thing to note(though I suspect you know more given the enthusiasm for the starship); The Y-Wing participated during quite a few important events to say the least, and it's been in service for a LONG time since it even gets used during the Clone Wars when a team led by Anakin Skywalker cripples General Grievous' new battleship with a bombing run. So... Yeah, I agree, it's a great old reliable ship that gets overshadowed by the fame of others, and as Reiken says: "Not quick or flashy, but it gets the job done."

+TheAirborneRogue Okay, I finally returned home and got to try out the two ships. I went to the Raid on Sullust stage, and no matter how many times I tested, the Millenium Falcon was always roughly able to resist 3 more missiles than the Y-Wing. I even tried to prevent the Y-Wing from being hit as often to let its shields recover a bit while deliberately taking more hits in the MF, and the MF still took more hits to take down in total. So... there you go. This was the N64 version by the way. If they're more similar in any other version, I know nothing of it.

I wonder how the game would have gone with B-wings? I know that at this point they didn't have them (please note I am going by the EU timeline, not the disney canon shit), but a faster, better armed Y-wing would have been interesting
@TheAirborneRogue8 жыл бұрын
+NeidalRuekk I am not sure how well the b wing would have worked in an N64 game as well, it could have been a game breaker... it would have been cool though, i cant think on many starwars games which have them
@NeidalRuekk8 жыл бұрын
TheAirborneRogue A lot have B-wings. D-canon now has a prototype with a death star ish laser. But in Rogue Squadron, how to use them? Heavier armoured, torpedo armed but slower X-wings? Weirdly proportioned, bomb equipped faster Y-wings? To be honest they straddle the line between the two. Go against TIE Interceptors and you'll really struggle
@MarkhasSteelfort7 жыл бұрын
NeidalRuekk B-wings are are slower and less maneuverable than Y-wings. They are very difficult to pilot as well according to EU. Thats why they couldnt completely replace Y wings.

The prototype piloted by Ahsoka in Rebels uses the Death Stars' converging stream laser wherein the four wingtip cannons combine into a large beam but it's only used for shooting down Imperial capital ships such as Star Destroyers.

If you intend on expanding the hanger to give us more craft, like the B-wing, and maybe the police cruiser and naboo bomber, and give the N1 cluster seeker missiles, *not saying this is what you'll do but I'm just talking hypothetically* I will sign it, especially if it'll allow it to run on windows 7 without cratering after doing a mission.

1: It's "Naboo", like the planet. 2: Yeah, they never gave it a voiceover. I'm guessing it was a last minute addition since the game was in development around the same time that The Phantom Menace was in production, and they decided to put it in there as a hidden easter egg.
