Guest Chrysaeor Posted July 23, 2001 Report Share Posted July 23, 2001 Any S&D or Base Defense/Capture mission involving a Firestorm. Damn good looking ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwaichang Posted July 24, 2001 Report Share Posted July 24, 2001 Naval Carrier launch mission with say...... A Firestorm? ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme Cmdr Posted July 24, 2001 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2001 You can't launch a firestorm from a naval carrier, yer git Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epsilon 5 Posted July 24, 2001 Report Share Posted July 24, 2001 What mission... hmm...Play as a Tacops cmdr in a Firestorm with 6 ships accompanying you: 2 bcmk3, 2 Warmongers and 2 Sunflash going to fight a Gam fleet in Hellseye (or any other area) composed of 1 StormCarrier, 2 Aestrom, 2 Bcmk1, 1 Questar and 1 Solnar. Include a few fighters as well.It gives a chance to see the AI play in a large furball and to admire some ships while you are standing in a beast.THAT's what I would like to see, better, have.What would I give for? Is my eternal gratitude enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest $iLk Posted July 24, 2001 Report Share Posted July 24, 2001 To quote Lowtax : quote:I want a mission where I get to be a level 50 Batman.hehe, no seriously, I would like a mission with Male Commander on a Battlecruiser MK III with a sneaky ass Gammulan ship in an asteroid field... Kind of like a submarine movie where they attempt to generate bearings and shoot and I attempt to seek them out and bomb the hell out of them... Yeah that would be cool... For a secondary mission, what about another pilot scenario where you start outside of your ship and have to run to it while the enemy is attacking in the sky... while naval ships bombard the area and your own naval fleet combats the enemy fleet... WWII JAPAN VS USA style with carriers and fighters... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spuzzum Posted July 24, 2001 Report Share Posted July 24, 2001 What would I give? A twelve-month paid subscription to VaporWare Magazine. If you get the magazine, you don't get the demo disc, because the demos have been delayed. And if you don't get the magazine, well, they don't call it VaporWare for nothing. Hmm... what would I like? A POLICE SCENARIO! Seriously, though, I'd be interested in a large battle scenario, with a bunch of Gammulan and Terran capital ships duking it out around Oliran or something.Ooh, wait, belay that! A THREE-WAY capital ship battle! Terrans vs. Gammulans... er, vs. Galaxians. I'm not sure which the third would be... Terrans are friends with a lot of people. But you can always make friends into enemies with GBS, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epsilon 5 Posted July 24, 2001 Report Share Posted July 24, 2001 A multi-side battle? Cool!Have an idea:1 - Start as the Terran as i said, going to fight gammulans; 2 - Meet the gammulans and start to fight; 3 - RAIDERS pops in, with various small vessels; 4 - Some time after, police kicks in; 5 - Some time after, insurgents pops in; 6 - Some time after, earthcom pops in...Should be enough...

Guest Commander Hamblin Posted July 25, 2001 Report Share Posted July 25, 2001 I agree with the Carrier Launch thing.In fact...what other Naval units will be in it? Will they just be Naval Aviation and Submersible units? (Technically, Aircraft Carriers are considered Naval Aviation units, which is why they're listed under COMNAVAIRLANT/PAC, instead of COMNAVSURFLANT/PAC).Will there be Surface vessels?

Joaquin Posted July 26, 2001 Report Share Posted July 26, 2001 I'd like to see a full scale invasion of a heavily defended Raider controlled planet. After eliminating orbital station and defense winning condition would require the elimination of all ground and naval units by combination friendly ground assets and space assets. Since galcredits are in short supply Galcom wants a limited campaign requiring factories, commercial buildings, etc. to be spared. The commercial folks who pay taxes want the planet to be left in good shape for future colonization. Invasion would have to take place while fighting off the spaceborne reinforcements. That ought to keep people busy for quite a while.[ 07-26-2001: Message edited by: Joaquin ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Pelletier Posted July 26, 2001 Report Share Posted July 26, 2001 Ummm... Be a Gammulan commander behind terran lines. Disrupting communications, shipping lines. Terrorising population on nearby planets (with nukes, yeah I like nukes).Do a rescue mission, on a planet and in space.Eleminate a raider cloacked in a region.Confiscate the SC beer ship as contraband. And survive the airlock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme Cmdr Posted July 27, 2001 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2001 OK, maybe I can come up with something this weekend. Stay tuned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fendi Posted July 27, 2001 Report Share Posted July 27, 2001 Yeah multi-sided battle but something that would make me wanna upgrade my computer again. It's like every Commander is infected with a virus or something and starts attacking everything in sight (like Royal Rumble) even his own team mates!! Just watching the battle would be fun (if I live long enough) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmdr Nova Posted July 28, 2001 Report Share Posted July 28, 2001 I'd personally like to see a big fleet vs. big fleet showdown, like Galcom vs. Gammulan or Insurgent. That would be cool!Can't wait to see the next mission you dish out, SC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Commander Hamblin Posted July 28, 2001 Report Share Posted July 28, 2001 Oooh. I bet my Carrier is bigger than your Carrier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme Cmdr Posted July 28, 2001 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2001 Most of you talking rubbish about a big fleet vs fleet mission, don't even have the horsepower to handle it. Then when the system beings your MK2 POS to its knees, you're going to start crying like snivelling babies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 28, 2001 Report Share Posted July 28, 2001 Well, what's the best you can do that won't bog down systems with hardware from Recommended to Smokin' levels?[ 07-28-2001: Message edited by: Rm ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Thomas Posted July 28, 2001 Report Share Posted July 28, 2001 I would have thought it would be the AI, rather than the GFX engine itself, that would cause slowdown in such a large battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme Cmdr Posted July 29, 2001 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2001 Thats correct Adam. You'd think that these vets would know that by now. It took a newbie to remind them Anyway, I did a fleet scenario today (for BCM itself - since all the demo scenarios are also from the final game), but got distracted and didn't finish testing it.Also, the current BCM kernel is different from the E2 demo, so I'd have to release new EXEs, some new kernel files, AND the mission, if I'm going to release a new mission.So, I'll see what I can come up with in the next few days. The last thing I want is to release some files and forget others. So, I'd have to actually install the E2 demo, compare the environments, and then figure out which changed files (kernel, content etc) to include in the additional scenario.

Guest Hellbinder[CE] Posted July 30, 2001 Report Share Posted July 30, 2001 Personally I would like a little FPS action. Even without full weapons and stuff. Like maybe, You have to fly to farstar, Shuttle Yourself to an enemy instalation, then send in a guy to "Recon" s certain spot by touching it or somthing. Maybe you have to drive a tank in there, jump out get the info and bail.Im not sure thats included in the initial scope of the game but it sure sounds cool.

R_wilco Posted July 31, 2001 Report Share Posted July 31, 2001 I'd like to see a fighter-based mission. Launch from a carrier(can that be scripted?) and go in for covert op into enemy space! Specificly, you would have to fly your fighter past all kinds of defenses, to get to a certain planet's surface, then exit your craft to plant a nuke(or steal data or something )from an enemy base, then get the hell out! Oh yeah, and have a HUGE fleet of gammulan fighters and cap ships giving you a "welcome", heh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigoku San Posted August 2, 2001 Report Share Posted August 2, 2001 I want any kind of mission with a diff cap ship to use. I never got demo 1, (with a 56k u got to be choosy.) How about you have a armed transport and are attacked by a buch of raiders? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
