This mod catapults Empire at War into 2077. It maintains the game's design philosophy, while adding new units, better graphics, and deeper gameplay.
I'm very curious to hear what the community thinks of this new Viscount design, share your thoughts in the description!
The build streams take place at Twitch.tv
The ship is far from finished, but on day 1 we made some solid progress, finishing the overall shape of the ship. Everything from engines to details is yet to be done of course.
YESSSSSSSSSSS I LOVE THIS DESIGN
THE WHALE OF SPACE
DAMM THOSE ARE SOME FINE ASSSS CURVES
Who doesn't enjoy some *** curves
Does anyone else get vibes of the xindi aquatic from trek?
when i was watching the stream at one point it looked like the dauntless class and at a second point like a wraith cruiser form stargate atlantis
I'm curious to see how you implement the engines, although I'm guessing you plan on putting them under the back "fin" like an F-4 phantom 2.
I can't wait to see it break into pieces!
Keep working on "Free Willy", so that he'll become the greatest whale of the fleet. Honestly stick to your design and let your inspiration room to work with this ;)
as soon as the mod gets published i will go into the data and rename the ****** to "free willy". thanks a bunch for the idea :D
Your not going for the usual frogface design? Frickin sick! Its like a covenant super carrier (Not the actual super carrier, as in it has a whale like design ascetic)
The new design is sheer genius! Those sleek lines are incredible and I can't wait to see this unit in action.
How would it fare against the Eclipse's superlaser?
Or will the best tactic be to just avoid one on one encounters and fight the Eclipse with swarms of fighters and bombers?
What's the largest ship immune to the superlaser, for that matter?
You always want to avoid a 1v1 with the Eclipse. It wont kill it in a single shot but the Eclipse will easily last long enough to get multiple shots off and kill anything.
And nothing is immune to the Superlaser. Just some ships have enough health to not automatically die. iirc only the other Dreadnoughts can tank a shot from it.
essentially instead of the floor is lava with capitalships (or anything in practice exept a massive hord of strike crafts[which can be defeated esealy by a few or even one artilliery ship since in the moddb version its the supreme star fighter cleaner]) i should do the eclipse is lava
Cool :) I'm interested to see how it will turn out.
I'm curious though, what inspired you change the design so drastically? It looks very different from the the original designs.
The original was boring. I was paid a lot to create a good looking Viscount. So that's what I'm doing, and I can't with the original design.
Fair enough, well your design is certainly a huge improvement thats for sure!
Much better lines for the viscount than iv seen yet. Nice job as usu
Huh, looks like a Liir ship from Sword of the Stars just without the tails....
Wow it looks like if Mon calamari and Sullust had baby
