Thread: Star Wars: Battlefront

    The way I see it now, is that Dice is basically taking away all the cool features from the Battlefield games.

    It seems we can't operate that giant Empire machine or the fighter "jets". It's all part of a gimmick in a game mode.

    For s sake why are they behaving like nobody wants to play a battlefield-esque 64 player game with classes and all kinds of vehicles.

    It's because those games released at golden age of video gaming(2000s).

    Golden Age is an accurate statement. Halo: CE/Halo 2, COD 1/2, TES III: Morrowind, Half-Life, KOTOR, all of those are more or less the basis for every game since then.

    NWN1, Rome Total War, C&C Generals....

    Gold age indeed!
    Then, as throngs of his enemies bore down upon him and one of his followers said, "They are making at thee, O King," "Who else, pray," said Antigonus, "should be their mark? But Demetrius will come to my aid." This was his hope to the last, and to the last he kept watching eagerly for his son; then a whole cloud of javelins were let fly at him and he fell.

    Yep, back when big studios still had the balls to release new franchises, and did not rush out a new installment each year of their series. There are still some exeptions of course, but they are few and sadly its the norm now to make trash like this upcomeing game, which likely will have some big bugs on release, server issues or something like that. And whats even more sad, we got used to games not working properly on release.

    Twitter Q&A

    - There will be more than 8 maps at launch, and although I see no evidence of space battles there might be "sky battles" of just or at least mostly dog-fighting possibly. (This is a matter of interpreting the guy's answer on twitter)
    - Your player will be customizable with armor, weapons, etc.
    - There is an offline mode called "Missions" and splitscreen players can do this.
    - The deployable shield, etc. appears to be something similar to Halo 3 where you could get bubble shields, etc. (At least this is how I'm interpreting his answer)
    - Unlocking the heroes will vary depending on the gametype
    - The AT-STs can be driven

    Yeah, but AT-AT probably won't be so...fail.

    Of course it's should be able to be driven, if they can't do that, well them.

    Hell I still find it unacceptable that the AT-AT is not being treated as BF vehicle.

    Every vehicle can be driven except for the AT-AT, but you can control the guns on that thing.
    And even though they didn't announce that, I doubt that the Y-Wing will be flyable. It kind of looks like an offmap support unit for the walker assault mode.

    It's like that scripted destroyer in the Battlefield "naval" expansion.

    Why insist on having all those options in the game when you can just sit back and pay $59.99 for the cinematic experience the folks at Dice are making for you all? This way, you can get the full Battlefront fun while playing with your friends! Playing as heroes wasn't good, because those were unbalanced and made people killed by them feel like they weren't having an epic Star Wars battle. It's also a good thing that they took out space battles and the prequels, nobody liked those anyway, and only children would be interested.

    Truly, this Battlefront will be the best one yet.

    Nobody liked the prequels but every EU fan loved the Clones.

    So far my biggest gripe with this whole thing, is that they are basically stripping the game of all the awesome features the previous Battlefront AND Battlefield games had, more so in the case of the later.

    EA just confirmed the AT-ST is drivable on their facebook page.

    EDIT: Female Stormtroopers now confirmed:

    I thought the rebel marksman in BF2 was a woman, so why did that article act like there was never any female options in previous games?

    In BF 1 and 2 the markman was female.

    There are female stormtroopers in Episode VII, and there were in the Legacy-Era EU, so frankly I'm not surprised at this.

    I personally only object stuff like the marksman, it's very stupid to have one specific class have one gender, unless it has some strong lore background. To me it's really annoying and kind of offensive for both genders.
