Star Wars Rogue Squadron mission 13 Blockade on Chandrila V Wing

Playlist: • Star Wars Rogue Squadr...
Star Wars: Rogue Squadron (known as Star Wars: Rogue Squadron 3D on the PC) is an arcade-style action game co-developed by Factor 5 and LucasArts. The first of three games in the Rogue Squadron series, it was published by LucasArts and Nintendo and released for Windows and the Nintendo 64 in December 1998. Rogue Squadron was one of the first games to take advantage of the Nintendo 64's Expansion Pak, which allows gameplay at a 640 × 480 display resolution, instead of that system's standard 320 × 240 resolution.
Set in the fictional Star Wars galaxy and inspired by the Star Wars: X-wing Rogue Squadron comics, the game takes place primarily between events in the films Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back. The player controls Luke Skywalker, commander of the elite X-wing pilots known as Rogue Squadron. As the game progresses, Skywalker and Rogue Squadron fight the Galactic Empire in sixteen missions across various planets.
Rogue Squadron received generally positive reviews. Critics praised the game's technical achievements and flight controls, but its use of distance fog and the lack of a multiplayer mode drew criticism. The game's sales exceeded expectations; by August 1999, more than one million copies had sold worldwide. It spawned two sequels developed and released for the Nintendo GameCube-Star Wars Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader and Star Wars Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike-as well as Star Wars: Episode I: Battle for Naboo, a spiritual successor released for Windows and Nintendo 64
GAMEPLAY:
Unlike the Star Wars: X-Wing computer game series that emphasizes space combat simulation, Rogue Squadron is a fast-paced, arcade-style action game. Each of the game's sixteen levels introduces mission objectives that must be completed to progress to the next level. These objectives are divided into four categories: search and destroy, reconnaissance, rescue and protect.[3] Enemy aircraft are primarily composed of TIE fighters. Ground defenses are more varied and include three different walkers, laser and missile turrets, tanks, probe droids, shuttles, stormtroopers and speeder bikes.
The heads-up display features a health meter, a radar and an ammunition count for secondary weapons. The player can control five craft: X-wing, A-wing, Y-wing, Snowspeeder and V-wing. Each vehicle offers a unique armament arrangement, as well as varying degrees of speed and maneuverability. The game initially restricts the player to a particular craft for each level; however, after a level is completed, it can be replayed with any available craft. Levels set on non-atmospheric moons expose the player's craft to space, but as on other levels, the craft is vertically confined. Nine bonus power-ups are hidden in different levels throughout the game. These bonuses improve a craft's weapons or durability and are applied to each eligible craft for the remainder of the game.
The player's performance is measured throughout the game, and performance statistics are checked after each level against three medal benchmarks. Each benchmark contains five categories: completion time, number of enemies destroyed, shot accuracy, number of friendly craft and structures saved and number of bonuses collected. If a player's performance exceeds one of the level's three benchmarks in all five categories, a medal-bronze, silver or gold-is awarded on completion. Acquiring these medals promotes the player's rank and helps unlock hidden content
Unlockable content:
Rogue Squadron includes a number of unlockable secrets. The player can unlock three bonus levels: "Beggar's Canyon", "The Death Star Trench Run" and "The Battle of Hoth". These levels are made available when the player obtains all bronze, silver or gold medals, respectively, on each level

That V wing is such a good ship to use, especially if you want to save the shuttle that keeps getting shot by the AT-ST.

[@Quasarbooster]

That scream of terror at 1:44 They can't handle the power of this awesome fightercraft.

[@TPDManiacXC626]

Compared to the sequel games, this one sure has a shit-load of TIE Interceptors and Bombers.

[@richardched6085]

The Empire actually wanted the Rebels dead in this game lol.

[@healthfreak18]

Loved this game! So many memories.

[@MeneTekelUpharsin]

Man, he had 100% accuracy. I never got that before.

[@BestestDerek]

What's amazing is, I played the SHIT out of this game, and watching you play it is EXACTLY how I did everything too. Every move, everything, to get that gold medal.

[@johnharker7194]

This V-wing is the best V-wing.

[@Jduhbs]

This game is the only reason i still own a Nintendo 64

[@Pikman01]

My reasons are Banjo-Tooie, Diddy Kong Racing, This game, and Donkey Kong 64.

[@thefitzthewitz]

The V-Wing isn't in Battlefront 1, and it only exists in Battlefront 2 as a bomber for gameplay reasons. Canonically speaking, the V-Wing in the Clone Wars era is a high speed interceptor lacking any secondary weapons. It's seen in Episode III: ROTS and will be featured in the Clone Wars TV show sooner or later.

Looking at it 20 years later..I see that we as the player did all the work. I generally hate game experiences where the ai is just there for looks. But I loved rogue squadron

[@aceclover758]

Yea, many older games were built that way Pissed me off. I wish they did at least something, even if it was holding enemy attention away from me or the main targets

[@Pikman01]

I have a Graphic Novel featuring the Devastators' attack on Calamari, and the fighters used are, quote, "E-Wing Transports"

[@christianfaux736]

Actually. IIRC, in those comics the e wing shuttles are used to transport the e wing airspeeder into combat, as the v wing is not a starfighter and has no hyperactive and is incapable of spaceflight.

[@MaxHDAvenger]

Until recently found out this V-Wing is a repulsor craft from Dark Empire. Also we wouldn't have an actual V-Wing starfighter until Battlefront games.

[@simonwillis1529]

I'm 36 now I wanna get my model kits out play with em and play this again Just think how it would be now

[@Amp661]

I remember Raid on sullust as being a pain in the royal ass. that was a ball buster to get gold! This mission was too easy.

[@cmdrsalsa]

v wing is epic

[@fromstarlighttosunrise128]

pc is so different. i had to burn out my ion cannons for each AT-ST

[@Pikman01]

How'd you destroy those Walkers with V-Wing Ammo?!

[@ikettleman777]

and Zelda ocarina of time

[@Girard1020]

[@halo34jess117]
