Sadly no.
Good Star Wars games require a degree of risk and/or creativity, which EA never allows for their devs.

>>387826405
Depends on what you're looking for. Let's get some discussion going.

FPS GAMES
>Dark Forces
The OG that started it all. Basically Star Wars Doom. You can play it on PC, PS3, even PSP.
>Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knight
Introduces lightsaber combat to the series. Has a pretty cool expansion called Mysteries of the Sith. Hilarious AMVs.
>Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast
Considered by many to be the best of the Jedi Knight games, at least as far as the campaign goes.
>Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy
Best multiplayer of the series. Lots of cool mods.
>Battlefront (2004)
Battlefield but Star Wars.
>Battlefront 2 (2005)
Typical sequel improving and adding some gameplay elements while removing others. Adds campaign, but some feel the maps of the first game are superior. PC version can be modded to include the maps from the first game.
>Republic Commando
Tactical squad-based clone trooper action. Damn good for the time, but hasn't aged as well as some games. Still worth a playthrough.
>Battlefront: Renegade Squadron and Elite Squadron
>Battlefront (2015)
This game was a barren piece of shit when it first came out, but the art direction and sound design are undeniably top-notch. Despite some people deriding it for being a Battlefield clone (implying Battlefront wasn't always that) the way the blasters handle and the blaster bolt travel time feels accurate to the movies. If you're going to play it for the love of god find the Ultimate edition for cheap. Not worth it otherwise.

Should I go on?

tie fighter is legitimately the best video game ever made

and no, ea will never make a good star wars game

>>387826654

Why is everything so slow?

>>387826405
There's a few, not sure which one would be the best but tie fighter/x wing, rogue squadron, battlefront, republic commando, and jedi academy/outcast are all great. Guess it depends on what you want out of a star wars game.

Let's reflect on what made TIE Fighter so great:
>Variety of ships and load outs
>Difficult missions with optional objectives that helped further the story
>Energy management for shields, blasters, and engines
>Can focus shields forward or reverse
>Can determine rate and pattern of fire for blasters
>Can target an enemy and "bookmark" it to select later
>Several ways to target something
>Sub-systems on large ships can be targeted
>Complex wingman commands
>If equipped can choose to disable ships rather than destroy them
>Your own sub systems can be damaged when hit (blasters can be disabled, as well as radar) that does not mean instant death
>Get to finally kill some rebel scum

There's no way in hell a publisher would put forth the effort and money to make a game as deep. Star Wars is nothing but a cash cow now, with everyone just trying to make a quick buck off of it.

>>387834264
More like they're cost effective to make and don't require a lot of man power. They can't be using huge ass capital ships, they just didn't have the man power for it during that period. The ship was still in production at that time, it just served different purposes.

There was a time when Lucasarts put some actual effort into their Star Wars games.

>>387834031
>>387833282

That's not even the same ship. The ones in Rebels look like they take design cues from the KotOR ones, but that's it. Different engine arrangement, different weapon arrangement, etc.

>>387834519

Star Wars exists in a state of tech stasis. This is nothing new, but they're not the same ship. They just look similar because they're pandering to nostalgia.

>>387834519
No shit anon, that still doesn't mean the rebels would have access to a fucking star destroyer or something. Why do you think the taliban used Soviet era shit? It's what they could get their hands on.

>>387834439
What's with Star Wars and kamikazes? They were doing this in the Clone Wars as well.

>>387827526
>>Battlefront (2015)
>This game was a barren piece of shit when it first came out, but the art direction and sound design are undeniably top-notch.

I think this is a fair assessment. It's the coolest little dream of Star Wars there is, as far as really seeming like the source material. It's the best example of a game getting a pass (from me at least) for its aesthetics. Dice needs to get some real game designers someday, instead of the idiots designing their campaigns.

hey don't worry bounty hunter was a tomb raider clone in good old star wars spirit. now that 1313 got canned visceral is following the uncharted/tomb raider reboot so you might see your bounty hunter tomb raider clone sequel before you know it.

This show looks so shit.

>>387833436
That would look painfully boring?

>>387837275
yea but when you actually watch it it becomes good

Anyone else noticed the complete lack of hype for Episode 8? Even when it was announced the hype was really lack luster. It is almost like, with time to reflect, and divorcing themselves from the obvious nostalgia bait, that Abrams Wars was demonstrably worse than the prequels.

>>387834519
Actually the new canon is closing the gap between the old republic and prequel trilogy. It's more like 1000 years.

Your point stays the same I suppose thoygh

>Doing raids on urban rebel hideouts

It could have been so great.

BattlEAfront was fine. Lacking in content and overpriced, but mechanically and thematically fine.
The sequel is already obviously going to be better, and might actually be fondly remembered as the definitive way to immerse yourself in a Star Wars battle

The concept art for the single player game looks fantastic. EA doesn't even have that bad of a track record regarding single player games, so nothing to worry about here imo. It would need special circumstances at this point to be below average.

Honestly I think the SW ip is in a fine spot right now. I know that's an unpopular opinion but I'm willing to defend it.

I'm no EA shill or anything either. Trust me, I would MUCH rather the franchise be in really any other hands (my personal choice would have been Square Enix), but there is no reason to have anything but optimism going forward.

>>387839089

>>387840609
>Recharging grenades
Good. Takes away the hassle of trying to find more and keeps the gameplay flow well.
>Can buy irl points to get heroes
Didn't hear about this, but it really doesn't effect anybody but that player. One more vehicle on the map isn't going to hurt anything if that player for whatever reason feels like wasting their money.
>Loot boxes
Good. Lootcrates is the best thing to happen to the gaming industry after DLC almost ruined it. If lootboxes mean they can give us all content updates for free, than so be it.
>Star cards
See my recharging grenade point. The only problem with them in BF1 was the recharge being a tad too slow imo. I didn't even know they were in the sequel, aren't they being replaced by classes? Or do we chose a class AND hand of cards?
>Tiny maps
I would have a problem with this, but it goes hand in hand with the problem I DO have with this game, which is the team size. Smaller teams are benefited by a smaller map. I would hate huge maps with the current team size because it would mean wandering around with little to no action
>Metro choke points

Even if Imperial Commando was to come out, they'd likely never make any sort of Star Wars material where you stay on the Imperial side. George Lucas ensured that when he made the Empire cartoony bad guy space Nazis. You'd start off as an Imperial Commando, likely defecting somewhere around the midway point. Also...

Something that tons of show/film/game/whatever creators do is come up with a person, or a machine, or something in their story that is supposed to be really really good and dangerous and the best at (thing they do), but they can't actually think of a way to SHOW that, so they just have the other side act retarded instead. Which is annoying because it doesn't make the badass thing look badass, it just makes the losers look stupid.
