    I’m really looking forward to seeing the improvements all the mods can take advantage of, now that 64bit is available, and the large memory support increase that brings.

    I'm personnaly secretly hoping for a Star Wars Galactic Battleground definitive edition just like AoE 2. Would be so great to be able to play this game with the AoE 2 QOL and graphics

    I've wanted some kind of sustained damage mechanic for rubber banding, general strategy, and keeping units instead of dice roll based on unclear damage pools for a long time; this is great news!

    I am very much happy with this update, I was so pleased that remake even with 3 people and a submod still runs the whole round without crashing and that TR runs more consistently with more people

    17 years later and still one of my favourite games. Thanks Petroglyph. I really hope for sequel... and as personal note for Remake of Tiberian Sun/Red Alert 2 he same way they did Tiberium Dawn/Red Alert.
    And considering Outlaws: Honestly im not really worried as much for Star Wars curse, but rather about Ubisoft curse.

    @KaiserMattTygore927 Год назад +5

    This is cool and I appreciate this patch, but I wish they'd attempt to fix the performance.
    The flickering thing with the mouse was always easily fixable for me, but the game's performance is the only thing holding back most mods for me. especially late game GC maps
    getting rid of some crashes is cool of course.

    • @sneediumminer
      @sneediumminer Год назад

      yeah especially since gc performance issues are almost 100% badly designed AI because the lag is directly proportional to how many units the ai controls
      it's fixable you just need someone who knows the AI code and the original devs are probably long gone

    • @ProbablyNotAChicken
      @ProbablyNotAChicken 11 месяцев назад

      There's nothing to "fix" because the unmodded game runs fine. That would be akin to asking Bethesda to make ENB's run better.

    • @Linkatchu
      @Linkatchu 10 месяцев назад

      Yeah, and basegame Conquests run super fine. Honestly, this patch actually brought me quite a bit of fps. I always tought, it was thrawn's revenge, but I never noticed, that it was bc of the mouse ​@@ProbablyNotAChicken

    • @nathannate5982
      @nathannate5982 Год назад +1

      Not with Eckstoo, but here are links to their past videos going over different mods:
      Fall of the Republic:
      ruclips.net/video/giXeHrF_dEg/видео.html
      Thrawn's Revenge:
      ruclips.net/video/CuCn8WMQPrg/видео.html
      Awakening of the Rebellion:

    • @egorex1834
      @egorex1834 Год назад

      Fall of the Republic if you like Clone Wars stuff. Thrawn's Revenge for post-Endor Legends stuff. Both are made by the same people, so they work nearly the same.
      Awakening of the Rebellion revamps the Galactic Civil War by adding more units, more planets, different progression systems and a vastly different way to play each faction than the base game. Their space battles are smaller than the previous mods I mentioned though, but the combat itself is more in depth.
      Imo, FoR and TR are faster paced and bigger in scale. Whereas AotR is slower, smaller and more complicated (sometimes to its detriment). Ground battles for all three mods are passable.
      For me, I prefer AotR mostly due to the fact that FoR and TR games quickly start to transform into who spams capital ships the most. AotR has it too but isn't as noticeable.

    Quick little note: your graphic says that 64-bit allows addressing up to 16TB of RAM. The limit is actually ~16,000,000TB of ram, or ~16 exabytes.

    did gog also recive this uptade or just steam? can anyone tell me what the latest patch number is so that i can compare if the november patch is instaled ( i'm using the gog gold edition, i have the cds but a few years back i got the gog version as well, i would not be a fan of having to buy it a 3rd time on steam tbh, this game defenetly deserves it, but in the current economy i can't exactly afford it :( )

    Respawn has been patching Titan Fall 2 out of the blue and with no big announcements recently as well. Why dose this matter? Well according to roomers Respawn is working on a new Star Wars RTS title.
    I think this is a good sign that we get a new RTS rather sooner than later.

    When in doubt, just always update the oldie yet goodie Legends titles, especially for multiplatform purposes (for every TIE Fighter theoretically ported well to the PlayStation and Xbox, there has to be Bounty Hunter for the PC). Won't be long before Disney Alt-universe titles will end up as irrelevant and gaming pariah-ish as Assassin's Creed and The Elder Scrolls.
