  • He dumped those for smuggling room.

    Lando had missiles loaded on his version of the falcon, and missiles were used in combat in the older books. But I believe it was referenced at some point that Han dumped the missiles for more room.

    The empire also specifically outlawed certain weapons on ships to make civilians more reliant on the imperial navy, mearning heavier lasers and the more capable missles were never legally a viable option. Normally not an issue to a smuggler, but as Han stated, even he gets boarded sometimes.

    But yes, the Falcon has missile hard points and can function as a light blockade runner for military purposes.

    You are literally claiming someone is projecting, while you yourself have nothing to indicate such things.

    Also you are just copying and pasting the same response in defense of a troll. A specific troll that everyone easily recognizes now. You. You are the troll.

    Rethink your life.




  • I get your point, I really do, but Homefront was also about the economic collapse of the American system caused by its own corruption.

    I always got the idea that Korea wasn’t incredibly overpowered united, but America was already broken and a step away from being conquered already and the first army to invade happened to be Korea. The rest of the world just wanted to see what would happen.

    Kind of like having Russia invade Ukraine only to have it’s nose beaten in and globally embarrassed. Doesn’t mean Ukraine is going to invade and conquer, just that a global super power can be defeated by a smaller united nation after decades of corruption.

    At least that’s the idea that got me through the game. It was honestly just a COD reskin of a game and wasn’t actually that good in retrospect


  • Just so you are aware, there are tons of active communities actively and currently maintaining live multiplayer servers for old games that had their official servers shut down. All through pirates.

    Star wars galaxies and Monster Hunter Tri are two good examples. I haven’t checked galaxies in a while, but monster hunter tri just unlocked a multiplayer server that has been shut down for a decade.

    If a fan community loves a game enough it’s still got an active server somewhere. Pirates are 100% bringing online features to their communities.

    Also, I guess since you didn’t know, there are hundreds of video games that currently have multiplayer enabled despite no multiplayer options when the game was originally released. You are really underestimating the amount of effort random pirates will put into making a 30 year old game playable with online multiplayer. Games like Skyrim, famous for being single player, now have multiplayer options.









  • My favorite XCOM 2 mods basically make the game a Star Wars rebellion game.

    It’s actually really fun to have a bunch of clone rebels taking the fight to the empire. Or it was. I buggered something so all I have working now are the armories, so it’s more a bunch of clone troopers are helping the resistance against the aliens. Still fun.

    I stopped playing XCOM 1. I had a squad of heavies in mech suits and everything. My perfect team for this mission. A bug hunt in newfoundland. Something about chrysalids in a whaling town. Everyone still died. I managed to get one guy out, everyone else died ammo spent and brass bloody. But it’s the one level I can’t bring myself to try again
