  1. Pretty much everything LucasArts made for a period was amazing. I don't even like star wars, I'm not really a star wars fan. I didn't watch any of the new movies and don't have strong opinions about the prequels. I just like the games. Their first person shooters during that era were amazing as well, they rivaled the top stuff from id at the time. One of the best studios to ever exist. It's a huge shame Disney ate them up and they haven't really done anything since. People shit on George Lucas all the time, but the guy was great to the video game world. One of the first people on the planet to really explore what you could do with video games as a real medium. How many other movie producers were founding video game studios in 1979?
  2. Damn, if you're a fan of football at all, doesn't matter which team or what level, watching Dak Prescott sob like that is heart breaking.
  3. Wound up digging this back out because I'm enjoying squadrons so much. It's like 20 floppy disks lol:
  4. If you play as the empire, VR really doesn't give you much of an advantage though because the design of the tie fighters takes away the greatest strength of VR -- the ability to look around. Playing as a tie fighter in VR is basically the same thing as playing on a normal screen. The A-wing, however, has the single biggest advantage of any ship when you play in VR. It has essentially zero cock pit to obstruct your view. You never, ever lose enemies out of sight with the A-wing.
  5. I'm playing this on PC with a Saitek x52 HOTAS and a VR headset. Absolutely amazing, the best multiplayer game I've played in years. Playing with VR feels like cheating when playing with people without VR, though. It gives you an enormous advantage when you're playing as the rebels as you can track them with your head as you orient your ship. The empire is disadvantaged though, I had never realized that the tie fighters in the movies would suck shit as a space ship. You can't see out the sides! It's like flying with horse blinders on. To answer the questions above: This is definitely in the vein of X-Wing and Tie fighter, not, say, Battlefront or Rogue Squadron. I played all the classic Lucas Arts games as they came out when they were new, this is basically the latest installment in the X-Wing series. Yes, there is a multiplayer mode that is focused on attacking fleets in raids that is MOBA like, but there is also straight up classic deathmatch mode ala X-Wing vs Tie Fighter. The single player campaign is also very similar to the style of those games, although with much more cinematic flair. Almost more like Wing Commander than the original X-Wing in single player mode.
  6. No, going for two there gives you multiple shots at the 2-point conversion. If you get it there, a second TD and PAT wins. If you miss, you still get another chance at OT with another TD and 2-point conversion.
  7. Surprised Ehlinger is letting the coaching staff stay on the field with him
  8. I don't get why everybody, from announcers to posters to ESPN articles, gets this wrong. Every player in the NCAA gets an extra year of eligibility. This year doesn't count against your eligibility. Sam Ehlinger has 1 more year of eligibility after this season. https://www.espn.com/college-sports/story/_/id/29712267/ncaa-votes-give-extra-year-eligibility-division-fall-athletes
  9. hell of a lot of heart by Ehlinger. Tom Herman shouldn't be allowed on the bus.
  10. The entire team is letting Ehlinger down. From the Oline to the defense to the coaching.
  11. after triple OT you have to go for two after a score after quadruple OT, you can't kick a FG anymore
  12. Put the fucking team on his back, Hook em Sam!!!
  13. fuck no ehlinger has 1 more year left. How about he finally gets a coach in his last go around?
  14. I love that fucking kid hate our coaches, but love sam ehlinger
  15. Don't just fire Tom Herman. Beat his ass on the way out too.
  16. I'm going through some real serious stuff right now in my life. My dad had a biopsy this week and we got bad news, then later in the week he collapsed. All I wanted was to watch Texas beat OU to take my mind off of the awful shit i'm dealing with, it's all I wanted. Fuck you tom herman, I hate you so much. I hate that you stupidly brag about being in Mensa. I hate that you kiss your players. I hate your fucking guts. Get fucked.
  17. Have you noticed why he's 3/10? Hint: It's not him
  18. Klatt and Gus Johnson love Texas
  19. Ehlinger is carrying the team right now
  20. All white people look the same to me but that's great news!
  21. Dude misspoke and actually tested negative
