ooooooooooh. Sw33t!

Just hope that it isn't one of those horrible spinoffs that puts the show to shame.

Also, there is a Stargate d20 Roleplay available, using the Spycraft d20 system.

Spycraft D20?

There is a D20 system out that I was not away of?

I've played SG-1:d20 and it is rather good! ... umm that's pretty much my reply.

I hope the new SG:1 is a FPS...

If they make a FPS I want them to take a good look at the material and try for a degree of realism. Idealy I would even like the game to have settings between realism and less realism. The hardest setting would make all weapons real in firepower and penetration while the easier settings allow both sides to take several hits before going down.

Another thing. If they make this a FPS, I want them to incorperate vehicles like several of the FPS games have done now. I want to drive a DPV or steal a Death Glider.

That might get a little complicated because maps can only be so large.

If they programmed Orca attack craft into C&C Renegade on those little maps, they can handle an Al'Kesh.

Its a little different when your doing multi-player. Those maps are never realistic.

I am referring to multiplayer maps, Alyeska.

Or a combo of an FPS and a space sim.

Sorry, but that D20 shit is BORING.

Pfft, they should just make a mod for UT.

Apparently it'll be using the Unreal engine under it all, and there were mods in the works but they got cease etc orders.

Of course, if a realism mod for an SG-1 FPS was truly realistic, then I wouldn't be using the P90 much, if at all...

You actually got a reason behind that one? The P90 is a good weapon for what they use it for.

I just hope they dont use the D20 ruleset in this game.

Well, they want to do more than one game, so we could be able to see different types like a FPS and a space sim.

The P90 sucks in reality. It is loved by fanboys, hated by professionals. For one thing, despite being able to easily perforate soft body armor, it's 5.7x28mm SS190 round has minimal stopping power (even less than 9x19mm Parabellum, as proven by geletin tests), and thus is totally incapible of causing incapacitating damage wihout hitting organs like the lungs and heart (but then, the rounds can't even penetrate human ribs).

If you drop the weapon's magazine while partially loaded, or the weapon when fitted a with a partially loaded magazine, it will dislododge the rounds in the mag and seriously jam the weapon. Several papers have been written describing the poor terminal performance of the 5.7mm SS190 cartridge, and all these papers strongly advise police and military customers from adopting the P90...

You would be much better off with an M4...

Oh...sweet. SG-1 games! Hopefully it'll keep the tone of the show.
