Major differences

What are the MAJOR differences between Super Wing Commander (MAC) and Winc Commander I (PC)? Im not talking about SWC's beter graphics, I want MAJOR stuff. (And why des Halcyon keep calling me Armstrong?)
 
I nveer noticed that. Wasnt the Goddard mission on WC1 plus Expansions? also, was Firekkan missions on SWC? (it wont work anymore, so..)
 
Crusade is not included with SM2 -- instead, an addon involving the destruction of the facility that produced the Sivar was added (dubbed 'SM1.5' by the fans).

Other major differences include references to stealth fighters in the dialogue and different cut-scenes (attack on the TCS Exeter instead of invasion of Brimstone and so forth).
 
So where does the court martial scene that I have on the back cover of my WC2 deluxe fit in?

Or was this just cut from WC2?

Also, does anyone have a the back cover of SM1 (Thor's Hammer) I could've sworn it said you can either fly in or fight with a ConFed 8 man fighter. What is it?
 
The court-martial scene was cut from the game.

The '8 man fighter' refers to the Venture -- but you can't actually fly it, you just fly against it.
 
Corvettes are like the step between fighters and cap ships. They have stronger shields, better weapons than fighters, but are faster and more manuverable than any capship. Their interiors are like a ship instead of a cockpit in a fighter.
 
Since when are 2 lasers better weapons than a fighter has? Last time I checked every single confederation fighter that has existed in the WCU besides the Hornet, has better weapons than just 2 lasers
 
Two lasers? every corvete Kilrathi corvete i ever fought had 5 turrets. All of them can fire at once and never seem to have a problem waiting for a recharge. I just played through WC3 last weekend and came across enough of them.
 
the 2 lasers are the armament of the venture class corvette, the confed corvette from wc1. as i recall, they were forward firing lasers as well, not turrets
 
Judging from the size, they were probably heavy lasers.

Also it has two turrets, one on top of each wing.

In the XWA conversion we're making, they approximate an extremely large Broadsword, with of course much thicker shielding, although fairly maneuverable and fast.
 
but its a conversion from x-wing alliance ( ithink?) so you have to buy an evil star wars game to play it. that means fattenning G****e L***s' wallet.

still, its not as if id play xwa, id just play the TC
 
You are a serieus junkie M_A...

There are only 2 Universes that rule: Star Wars and WC. WC had the best games, SW the best movie.

But they both have to best stories behind anythin SF thing i've ever seen.
 
We're not getting into another "x vs. y" thread, are we? Because that would mean instant death, y'know.
