Out of curiosity, do we have any idea if this Concordia is the namesake of the Concordia-class carrier, or is it simply not established? I have always pictured it as looking like the Lexington.

I never thought the mission was hard at all, but there was one thing that pissed me off to no end. As I recall, you have to destroy the ground installations in order to beat the mission, but the autopilot will let you fly on by without taking them out. So, you are like me and see the auto...

Interesting post Quarto, I think some of the difference with WC:Saga and how it approaches the story as compared to the production WC games is part of the problem. While Wing Commander always had the broad epic story, the missions never really reflected that in my eyes. It was usually the...

I'm so thrilled to see this finally released. I remember doing a little bit of mission work back in 2008 and thinking then that this really was going to be something special. Congratulations to everyone who worked on this thing from beginning to end!

Is it possible that ejection was added in SWC, and that is what he is playing?

Of course, there really shouldn't be any other ships there that survived, because otherwise, Blair doesn't have to go looking for it ;) It is a neat image, though.

Maybe you're guns aren't charged up much. You have to let them regenerate a bit to do more damage.

You needed to put more power to the guns, my friend :)

Perhaps they are just the next line of fighters? Perhaps the Kilrathi are saying... why do they have a thunderbolt 7?

While it is really neither here nor there, didn't it fight the Coventry and Sheffield? Looks like I might have to lose WC3 again :). EDIT: Nevermind, gr1mre4per beat me to it. It would be nice to have a history on these ships, because if it takes 5 years (I believe) to build a standard...

X-wing version! I remember it, and I think that I never did make it by actually going down the trench. It was actually kind of silly, because you gain a bunch of speed in the trench, but the guns just tear you up. Easier to fly above out of range (although, it took like 15 minutes or...

I believe that according to wing commander 4.123456 that all fighters were equipped with relief bags :)

Yeah, the flying drunk mission on Nightmare is freaking hard. An arrow, up against six vaktoths, then six dralthi, all lobbing missiles at you. Although, using the autoslide would have made this a lot easier, looking back on it. I guess i wasn't the brightest crayon in the box when I was 13...

wrong forum :rolleyes:

Well, I'm not so sure about this. For one thing, the WC universe is expansive enough that prequel games would not be out of the question. I think that a lot of the problem with the franchises that you have mentioned is that their final iterations were more of a whoring out of the title...

Looks good. If i want to be nitpicky though, the Yorktown model is a bit inaccurate. The conning tower is on the wrong side! Of course, you may know all of this, and I do understand that it's still beta! Just wanted to point it out if it was overlooked ;)

Does anyone who played Super Wing Commander remember if the Ralari mission was modified at all? For some reason, I never had any difficulty with the mission at all, so it makes me wonder if the SWC version was dumbed down or something...

The only thing that is annoying about this is that the Lexington in WC4 is a front line carrier, yet still operating with the same old junk that the Victory had. Obviously, from a gaming standpoint this was pretty necessary, but it does add a little "weirdness" to the fact that the T-bolt...

I believe that in the novels, possibly TPoF, it is explained that Confed high command did not really support the Behemoth Project, and that was part of the reason that Tolwyn was using the Victory in the first place.

Agreed. Both have very different styles, and I think that Standoff tends to appeal more to those who cut their teeth on WC's 1 and 2 (obviously, since they targeted their gameplay around WC2). My first Wing Commander Experience was WC3, so that is probably why I lean towards the Saga game...
