Star Fox for Wii: =100% Airwing missions; ground/ foot assault or a MIX

I was totally frustrated with Star Fox Assault for GC; while Adventures (developed by RARE) was a nice twist but not exactly what you expect from Star Fox series. Command for DS was good but it couldn't be better than N64 version (in fact, any of the 3). Well that's my opinion, and it's a matter of tastes.

With this little prologue, I want to say that I would prefer a 100% Airwing missions, no Fox on ground (only in the Landmaster). However, what do you want? 100% Airwing missions; 100% assault or a MIX ?

STAR FOX 64 FTW!!!

seriously, they should make it only Arwing. but change up its abilities a little so the game doesnt feel stale

Actually I think the Star Fox Wii will benefit from having ground missions. Ever wished you could snipe enemies with a Wiimote? I know I do...

If the game wasn't so linear and had multiple paths giving in a few different endings the game could be better than Star Fox 64.

Starfox Wii

More flying, less trek

Do it Nintendo.

They should make a new starfox like Warhawk.

A mix of flight, vehicles, and on foot combat.

not a bad idea, really!

i want it to be like freespace with freelancer controls. if u dont know what that is then its an old space sim on PC. theres loads of vids on youtube to give u an idea. watch the intro to the first one also...with the volume up. great intro to a game.

but yeah..like freespace...with freelancer controls (if u dont know what freelancer is..blah blah blah :P). huge ships knocking the crap out of each other while u and ure squad....and maybe a few other squads.....kick the snot out of them and other fighters also.

with all the star fox lore now...its ripe for a game like that. i think the on rails shooter ala lylat wars and starwing has been perfected so they may as well move onto something else.

and no foot assaults at all....none...i dont want to see fox and chums get out of their arwings.

Really like your idea. I love warhawk and If they make it make it ANYTHING like Warhawk, obviously not the graphics and art direction because it wouldn't fit anyways, I'll be one happy man, specially if aside from the regular story you'd be able to hop online on MMO-****maps yet not HUGE but big maps with a lot of people, all killing eacg other on arwings or anything else you want. With special maps with Arwings only and so on.

eh, i don't think that would feel like Star Fox. Don't get me wrong, those are great games...well maybe not freelancer so much, but freespace is. But that's more like a space combat sim, and Star Fox is a vertical shooter turned 3D...and I think that's how it should stay.

I've also always felt like vehicle and foot missions were outside the scope of the game, so I wouldn't mind those being removed.

I think there is room for both the Arwing and Landmaster missions. Don't bother with the on-foot stuff. thebisonx

Oh yeah, arwing and landmaster! And if they can make another good vehical. Just whatever they do, they better not have him on foot again.

I think it needs to go back to it's roots and go only Airwing, but I think it needs to stop being on rails.Skie7

I don't think I'd like Star Fox in All-range mode. It was fine for dogfights and boss battles, but in the end it would feel like a less-manueverable game.

Also, do you really want the N64 voices back? I mean fox and falco sound better, but Slippy? Are you willing to make an exception...

You can't create as many awesome moments with an open environment like all range mode all the time. I think the DS star fox suffered a lot from that. Once again, I stress that veriety should be big, and thus many forms of flying the arwing can be created.

Also, old voice actors would rule!

Why can't you create awesome moments in an open environment? It's all about scripted events, which can be fairly free-form to increase replayability. Plus free-form could make for some great online co-op and vs games.

Gaming comes in 2 forms, open ended and scripted events. It is near impossible to get a game as well scripted while open ended as it could be in rails and strait paths.

Longer single player campaigns. Star Fox single player is traditionally too short. And the ability to save progress would be nice.

More branching stories as mentioned before. There should be like five ways to complete each level.

More free flight levels, like Rogue Squadron-esque missions. Also Rogue Squadron-esque challenges that you get different medals depending on objectives (primary and secondary objectives).

Online multiplayer dog fights and battle modes.

Cooperative single player missions both offline and online.

I want a new Star Fox game like SF: Adventures, but with shooting on the ground and flying... but not like Assault. Something like metroid maybe (like Corruption, 5 or 6 planets, missions on these planets, with wlying from one to another with airwing missions) with 3rd-person perspective...4ort911

hmm...starfox made by retro studios....nicee!

I think it will probably be a mix.Lunar52

He thinks it will probably be a mix.

I wouldn't mind some landmaster missions here and there, thought the on foot action wasn't too hot

And I think it should still be kept on-rails for some parts, wouldn't really want to be flying in all range mode ALL the time, its a different style of shooting and helping your teammates is just THAT much more annoying...

But really, I'm fine with any kind of gameplay as long as I get to "Do a barrel roll, Fox!"

Thats's what I fought as well, have that as a muiltplayer and then still have a single player though, but even if it's N64 length that's fine with me, all we need for it if it ever happened now is a headset.

i loved freelancer. it wasnt finished though...which was a shame. but yeah leave out all that trading and stuff..thats not what starfox is about really. im just talkin freelancers controls...which i think would work a treat on the wii.

im not really sure that the traditional star fox play has much that can be improved on though to be honest. lylat wars basically perfected it and so it would be more of the same.

if done right....a starfox built in freespaces image could be the greatest game from nintendo since metroid prime imho. take it off the lanes and u open up a bucket of new possibilities, online and off (co op campaign for example) and the wii is a perfect place to start. the controller is ideal and the hardware is there and the franchise, at the mo, is broken and needs some major TLC.

I guess I'm just a traditionalist when it comes to Star Fox. A new ip that has free roaming space flight could be awesome, I agree. Especially considering the different ways the Wiimote could be implemented to control it. But as far as Star Fox is concerned, I'd still like to see it stuck on the rails...but that's just me.

This generation would be a great time for Nintendo to redeem themselves with the Starfox series. Make another Starfox adventures but with more Airwing levels, less adventure/on-foot stages. But do it good! We need better graphics. Something that will take our breath away. I want to see a whole new side of Starfox, like never before. I loved Starfox 64 - it's easily one of my favorite games of all-time and I would love more than anything for it to do well on the Wii. Make us proud!Elann2008
