StarCraft: Gundam

[FrankZ]

Has anybody played SC Gundam here? I, for one, believe that the game is epic and awesome beyond the capabilities of its predecessors.

However, I find it really frustrating too that the Terrans are biased. They've got laser turrets that shoots on both land and air, and science vessels that shoot multiple rockets.

If anybody has played Gundam, please what you think about the game.

Haven't played it or heard of it. Could you post a link please?

[Kawagata]

It's UC Gundam: Universal Century Gundam

[FrankZ]

Whatever. :-\

It still came with my StarCraft Compendium Modification CD, which contained more than 103+ add-ons for StarCraft.

I've played it. And it was damn fun ^^

But I also do think the Terrans are somehow biased. LoL, the firebat shoots lasers on land and air targets therefore I no longer make marines LoL.

[FrankZ]

Yeah. And iirc, Siege Tanks are damn buggies that can shoot rockets up to the other side of the map. idk.

It was pretty funny how they changed the huge Siege Tank into a tiny buggy. They could have also at least changed the siege firing sound too, lol. A huge boom from a tiny buggy makes it even funnier.

Would have been better if it flipped backwards when it fired :P Lazerbats FTW

It was made by only one person. I do agree it was revolutionary at the time, but pretty dull now, compared to say... the doom series (regarding modding capabilities).

But the graphics were awesome and it did open new doors to modding. Best 1.07 mod at the time. I still consider it even now pretty good (considering ...), though I do admit the modding capabilities back then were limited and GC didn't use IceCC to make new techs, which is why they are so "simple", such as shooting 3x3 rockets. In case you are wondering how he did that, it's pure dat editing, not iScripting.

The buggy's size in the game engine is still pretty big though...

[Cpt.Chronic]

Here's a couple pros playing it. Looks pretty dumb.

Looks pretty neat, actually.

:o I don't remember the Zerg being modded in the version that is up on StarCraft.org. Can anyone tell me where to find it, or is it completely unavailable?

[TheNomad]

From what I remember only the lurker's attack was modded to blow flames (instead of spikes), but that's it. He even wrote in the readme that he doesn't plan to mod the Zerg.

[DarkMirror]

Then somethings going on, since that really look like the Zerg there.

[TheNomad]

What do you mean ? The Zerg are still there, just not modified (apart from the GFX on the lurker's attack).

[ForTheSwarm]

......

Most of the unit sprites have been changed.

[TheNomad]

Not in the version I have. Bleh...

[ForTheSwarm]

He's talking about in the YouTube video.

[TheNomad]

Link pls ?

[Konn]

first post, I beleive

[TheNomad]

My bad. Hmm... That is new... or at least not in the original. There is another thing: that was made for 1.07 so who knows what SC version is on the youtube version.
