      I still have my 1995 collecters edition Tie Fighter CD and case on display right next to my PC. Tie fighter always was and always will be the single greatest example of what a space sim can be, so much so that here we are 28 years later with allthe PC hardware power and all the design tools in the world and we are still waiting for someone to do it better, the sad truth is no one has even got close since the late 90's.

    • @HerraTohtori
      @HerraTohtori ปีที่แล้ว +10

      @@MagzGTV I'd say that X-Wing and TIE Fighter (and by extension X-Wing Alliance) were the best examples of a space sim using an established franchise as a background. They really nailed the Star Wars feel - and, in some ways, contributed to it.
      However I would say that as far as gameplay is concerned, overall the FreeSpace and FreeSpace 2 games have a very slight edge in terms of playability. Of course, FreeSpace (1998) and FreeSpace 2 (1999) stood on the shoulders of giants like the original X-Wing and TIE Fighter games and heavily relied on them in some ways, but if we compare FS/FS2 to X-Wing Alliance, FreeSpace 2 had some much needed quality of life improvements.
      But Star Wars is Star Wars, and if someone's looking for a Star Wars fighter sim specifically, then this is pretty much the best they can get. If they're looking for a space sim in general, I would point them towards FreeSpace Open project with all the mods and total conversions that can be found in that direction.

    Great work. This is a dream of mine, as someone who played through TIE-Fighter, X-Wing vs TIE-Fighter, etc. I used to participate in a forum called the OPT project, making new ships and adding them to the game. At the time, the ability to mod and create ships was very limited, and we had to be very creative therefore. I can't believe it's been going on since then.
    It was the start of the golden period of gaming, where us young kids with our creative minds suddenly entered an imaginative world of pure potential and possibilities. My father got me the Star Wars collection. I still remember that day, almost 30 years ago. He has since passed away, so these nostalgic memories are of a time when he was still here.

I played through X-WING in a few weeks and loved it. When the spec. ed. of TF came out I got it as well. Played it, loved it too. Today I barely remember anything about them.

    Yeah, Squadrons didn't get the differences between the ships right, as I recall. If I remember correctly, it's been a while since I played squadrons, instead of making the imperial fighters faster and more maneuverable on a constant basis they gave them like, a speed boost special or something, on a cooldown, which DOES NOT feel or function like a proper imperial fighter. They gave TIE fighters excessive armor, instead of making them fast and maneuverable. Yes, outpacing and outmaneuvering your foes would give the imperial fighters a distinct advantage if they could get behind their enemies, but that's why the rebels had to fly with wingmen, not only that, imperial fighters would almost always deploy in massive numbers to overwhelm their opponents. In squadrons, you deploy what? 4? And maybe a handful of NPC fighters. That is NOT the compliment of an imperial class star destroyer, or even a victory class. Granted, in a head on battle most times the rebel fighters would win against basic TIE fighters, cutting them down, but only until they could get behind them, or come at them from the flank. Then there's my favourite imperial fighter, the defender. Shields as good or better than an x-wing, a payload close to that of a bomber, and the speed and maneuverability of a TIE, they'd mop the floor with ANY rebel fighter, and even take on capital ships. Yet in squadrons, they had a weak shield, again no imperial fighter had the speed or maneuverability they should have had. Most of the rebel fighters felt like a pretty good match I think, to what they should be, if I remember correctly, except maybe the a-wing. For the same reasons I listed above. Speed and maneuverability. Sorry to harp on those points so much, but, I think that's a big part of what was lacking. Well, that and the single player story could have done better with two seperate campaigns, one imperial, one rebel/new republic. If they wanted intertwining storylines they could do that with two seperate campaigns, but the flip flopping back and forth is immersion breaking. Anyway, I've talked your ears off I'm sure. That's just some of my opinions.

    It's beautiful. Yeah the audio you commented on does sound like the original audio. I was about to comment about how the new voice actors had replicated the intonation of the originals, but it makes more sense that it was the original.

    I played the living snot out of this game back in the day (Wing Commander III too). Good to see the game is alive still. I wore out multiple joysticks on those 2 games. Tie Fighter was a huge improvement over it's predecessor X-Wing, in how playable it was. And it was in VGA 640x480, compared to 320x240 for X-Wing, which made a huge difference in graphics. The A-Wings in later missions were a tough challenge. It was very hard to get the turning circle on them.

    My favorite thing in this game is to load up on proton torpedoes or concussion missiles and set to unlimited ammon and invincibility, then attack my own star destroyer. Eventually more star destroyers come and they send endless tie bombers after you while the officer on your side says "destroying [imperial vessel was not wise]". Then just shoot down tie bombers for a whole hour or so LOL. The Tie fighters had superior radar to the X wing at least on the engine the game was running on. The Tie Defender was 100% the best fighter on either side.

    I really put my hopes in Squadrons but after the first few missions I had enough allready. The feeling of the starfighters, the amount of fighters you could fly with, the radar system, no pointless chatter with cringe characters, the strict and useful mission briefing and some really hard missions - all that made TIE Fighter from 1994 great and was missing in Squadrons. What we got with Squadrons were silly special moves. No more knowing your fighter and pull every last ability out of it in the right moment - just press a few buttons and you will make an automatic hard turn for example. I was bored and annoyed at the same time.
    This mod on the other hand looks amazing and I will try it out. :)

    I played Squadrons and enjoyed it for what it was. But being that it is the closest I've gotten to the flight-sim genre I don't have much to compare it to. I really just enjoyed the campaign (didn't really touch multiplayer) and found it funny that Squadrons had a better Empire campaign than the "Imperial perspective" campaign we were promised in Battlefront 2 from EA.
    Always wanted to try out the older TIE and X-Wing fighter games. But given their age I doubt they play well with modern hardware or that well on keyboard/mouse. May have to get around to giving this a shot someday.

    in the original tie fighter from 1994 the shields of the star destroyers were still up after destroying the two shield generators. did they fix that "bug"? in x-wing this was still original like in the movies. i think this was because they thought the star destroyers in x-wing were easier to destroy than nebulon b frigates.
