Star Wars Empire Sector Assault, Star Wars Federation: Ultimate Collector’s Edition, and Star Wars: The Ultimate Collector’s Edition are the latest and final expansion packs for BioWare Star Wars: The Old Republic. They are all massive expansions that will revitalize the game in many ways. They introduce new side skills, a host of new species to battle, new weapons, upgrades for your ships, and more. Although heavy fighting is involved, it isn’t what we’ve expected from Bioware games. Instead, it’s more action-packed, more detailed, and more realistic.
First, let’s get into the ground game. The player can choose to fight on the ground or in space. Although you don’t have a shuttle, you do have boarding parties, consisting of two players – one to hold off the waves of aliens and one to get into the shuttle and board the aliens themselves. You get points based on how much damage you can withstand, and the winner is the one who gets the most credits by eliminating all enemy ships. Next is the space combat part. All the missions occur within the confines of the outer atmosphere of the galaxy. There are escort battles, boarding actions, combat against other players, mining missions, and mining of resources. These all change depending on the task. The fight takes place in three dimensions, and the ships are just as real (if not more) than the enemies they are protecting. There are also space hazards like debris and gravity wells, which must be overcome with careful maneuvering.
Finally, there are the planetary assaults. In these, players must protect the planets from the Imperial invasion. The players can land on any of the planets in the Star Wars Galaxy and stay there until the tide passes or the earth is cleared. If no one is there to stop the attack, then the world falls to Imperial control. Once all the planets are secure, the player wins. The Empire Sector is packed with games that will challenge gamers’ strategic and artistic minds. They include exciting real-time missions, challenging missions, and action-packed matches that will keep even the most experienced players coming back for more. Even if you have never had a background in games like this or have only played classic strategy games, you will surely get a great deal of enjoyment out of playing through the Empire Sector.
There are lots of benefits to playing through the Star Wars Empire Sector. First, it provides a great introduction to games where you fight and destroy with ground forces and your opponent. Second, it presents various missions that are all very different from each other but all focused on getting you to do exactly what you must do to win. Finally, it’s a good match for people who don’t have much experience with space warfare or ground combat games. That way, the games are easy to pick up, and players can enjoy the narrative and the action without getting too frustrated.
