This is a new general. In the future there will probably be some pastebins or other links here.
For now there might be a thing or two you didn't realize yet in this news post:
http://starwars.ea.com/starwars/battlefront/news/10-things-to-give-you-a-head-start
For example, did you know that the faster you go in most spaceships, the less damage you deal with your shots?
To get us started, let's have a little thing for you to fill out.
>Name the top three changes/additions you'd like to see in the new Battlefront
Example:
1. Server Browser
2. Team shuffle at the end of a match and team balance during if too many people leave on one side
3. A decent ingame map
>>122679226
1. Constant music
2. Walker Assault map with two teams having a go on the same map
3. either spawn protection or controlable vehicles right from the start, no silly intro animations
4. MANUAL snowspeeder tow-cable, not a silly mini-game that locks the speeders controls
>>122679793
I saw a post somewhere during the beta in which a guy explained what you have to do to immediately gain control over a vehicle.
Can't find it again though
>walker assault round starts
>instantly says I'm out of bounds and counts down
>every rebel starts dying 10 seconds after spawn and no matter where they spawn
How many other people have gone and gotten 3 stars in all the solo missions already?
The one with the speeder bikes on Endor took me a while I have to say, avoiding trees while using the boost is quite something.
>>122680217
i need to re-do the first x-wing and the vader/palpatine mission for 3 stars
That damage output on Han
That blaster man
Will it be dead when dlcs roll out?
>>122682114
I think everyone who got it will also get the DLC
I paid 70 bucks for the ultimate edition to get everything
based proxies and mexican origin
>>122682114
Jakku in over a week
>>122682314
I mean the real ones, with new shit like weapons/vehicles/modes.
>>122682778
they did not say when the new stuff comes out so i don't know
I suck at blast and such modes but apparently I do very well at fighter squadron
Do AI kills count into the K/D by the way?
>>122685184
try killing a few and check
>>122685417
I can't right now, thought someone might know. Since there are so many AI ships cruising around in fighter squadron for eample.
>>122683431
>I do very well at fighter squadron
yea, vs bots
Am I wrong in saying that almost every single star card (especially explosive ones) need the cooldowns increased? I know people run double grenade loadouts, and if you sprinkle a few of those people in Blast/Drop Zone game modes, it feels like Metro/Locker on Battlefield all over again.
>>122686097
No, against anyone. Full teams. Always top of the scoreboard. Stay jelly bruh
>>122686212
Not him but fighter squadron is literally the most braindead mode in the game. You hit l2 and r2 and the game literally just aims for you and gets kills for you. There is no strategy or aiming required. I laugh my ass off at people who brag that they're good at that mode. And you know why I hear so many people bragging about how good they are at the mode? Because it's piss easy, but they think that it means they're actually really good. Topping the scoreboards isn't even an accomplishment.
>>122687725
>l2
>r2
console player please
>>122687820
Please what?
>balls deep in Fallout4
>Don't know if I should waste shekkels on Battlefront
Is itfun?Or better yet, worth the hard earned bottlecaps?
>>122679226
Galactic Conquest
>>122688067
No one should buy this game for the full price if it's so easy to buy it for less
http://pastebin.com/94GfgjcM
Basically, get any free vpn that has a mexican server. I did it with FlyVPN but that one works too I guess.
Go to the mexican origin store page. Add Battlefront (which edition you want) to cart.
Log in and keep going until it asks you to select your payment method.
Turn VPN off, click paypal, finish business as usual.
You'll get the order confirmation mail in Spanish but who cares, you now have the game and saved like 40% easily
For example, ultimate edition goes from 120 bucks to like 75 bucks
what is best, first person or third
>>122688353
third for sure
hip fire a lot, no need to zoom in much in this game, it might take a bit to get used to that
>>122688456
that's what i've been seeing
thanks anon
>>122688353
What the hell kind of question is this?
It's whatever you prefer
>>122687820
>he does not have an xbox/ps3/ps4 controller connected to his PC
>>122688353
The game has no recoil or anything, there is no real benefit of first person
>>122688629
I do that for other games, but why would any sane person play it on PC with a controller
>>122688180
I'm in Australia, so the price for standard is $56. The ultimate is $110. So if I bought the standard, I'd end up having to pay more later for the DLC...but if I spend the $110 I just think that's absurd for a game on the promise it'll get 'better'.
>>122688753
it's a lot better to fly and use the speeder bike with a controller
>>122688856
well you wouldnt spend 110 if you bought it through mexico
>>122689005
It's $110 AUD from the Mexican site after the exchange rate. It's $156 through Australian origin.
>>122689143
oh, really?
my bad then.
sorry aussiebro
>>122689309
Naw it's all good. The exchange rate is fucking horrid at the moment, kind of why I'm so hesitant on buying Battlefront. I was so hyped for it but I played Beta and it wasn't as fun as I was hoping.
Anyone in Europe want to tag team this bad boy? On PCBorklund on Origin

>>122691650

we can do bit of both
>>122691723
sent
>>122691168
Are you sure it releases midnight though?
posting so I can say I was here since #1
>>122692552
it says 42mins here in the store tab on Origin
wtf did they do to the flying controls?
They were okayish in the beta and now they're atrocious.
Also all those lock-ons are kind of disgusting.
>>122700230
Turn down sensitivity to no more than 25%

Which species do you want to see added as a rebel customization the most?
And why is itMon CalamariandWookiee?
>>122701968
Fuck that I want space battles nigger
>>122701968
ithorians please
thing i really want to get added are helmets for aliens.
Stuff i would love to add or change:
>A-wing pilot is wearing X-wing suit, hope they change it
>AT-AT. AT-ST 1st person views.
>More customisation, change backpacks, accesories. Maybe inspire in the upcoming Rouge one spin off?
Love Mquarries unused concept art beeing used on the game
>>122701968
i just wanthumans in helmets,fuck that pointless customisationmoreRogue Squadron like missionsandspace goddamn battles where i can pilot either of the shuttles to infiltrate the SSD/SD/Mon Calamari or other capital ship to fuck its shit up from inside
I hope I can get a refund. it's officially releasing in Yurop in 8mins. I played it during the Korean release. I'm probably fucked though.
I hope you all made sure to pick a nice meme-y avatar in Origin so people see it whenever you top the scoreboard or got most kills etc.
>>122702407
if you purchased it through Origin, you can get a full refund within 24 hours from starting the game
I did that when BF Hardline came out and found it was absolute horseshit
>>122702639
An actual refund or a "Steam" type of refund where you get the money back as wallet money?
Basically meaning it'll forever be on Steam.
>>122702832
on Origin you get your money back to your account, not some virtual wallet
>>122702832
You can choose the refund method on steam.
You can choose between Steam wallet currency or refund directly to your credit / debit card.
>>122702639
>>122702832
>>122702918
holy shit, it actually worked. I was worried because I basically played it on the 17th instead of the 19th. It simply wasn't enough content for 60 bucks. I might get it down the line when it's cheaper on key sites. I hope you guys enjoy it though.
Is there a way to trade Steam Currency? I'd like to get this game, but I've only got disposable money in my steam wallet
>>122679226
Hello~
anyone know how to fix everything but menu and music sound being cut?
>>122703508
yeah I am not getting this until I find it for half the price or less
>>122704060
so.. mexican origin store right now? More or less
I paid 70 bucks for the ultimate edition there. Would've been 120 otherwise.
I just realized you can upgrade your star cards
Like upgrade the thermal detonator you already own
Where muh spessbattles @
>>122705015
dlc good goy :3
at least it would be a real expansion compared to just themed maps
>>122704768
Oh fuck
Is flying with a controller really so magnificient or what is going on?
I'm using kb+m with low sensitivity and I do extremely well in all the fighter squadron matches I played.
>>122705378
yea wish I could change sensitivity on vehicles separately because I feel like I have Parkinsons when I fly especially in first person
>>122680135
Just happened and its the only match I can fine
>MFW stuck in Japan
>>122705378
I haven't gotten the game yet, but I played every single day of the demo. Mouse definitely had the disadvantage, compared to once I switched to controller. Plus the auto aim assist fucked me with the mouse too.
Fun as fuck game though, will be buying soon.
>>122705672
flying changed a lot since beta
>tfw low settings on 560ti
>>122705832
for me it feels a bit closer to the Rogue Squadron type of flight.
now if they would getFactor 5people to do the flying andspace battles/missionsi would be closer to heaven
what the FUCK did they do to the vehicle piloting
it feels absolutely fucking awful now
like theres some kind of ridiculously stupid 'control assist' or something now
absolute shit
So since the Empire only gets 1 walker on Endor is there anyway the rebels get nerfed for balance?
>>122706165
you need to put it to low sensitivity now
then it's great
>>122706276
revert the balance to how it was in the Beta
>>122706276
Walker Assault as the Empire on Endor is a new level of BS
It should be one walker and one uplink
>>122706496
shit feels like the rebels win most of the time when I play even with orbital strikes not erasing walkers
>>122706406
i put it on 1%.
it feels like it's trying to fly itself
like the instructor in war thunder but a whole lot more intrusive
>no cloud city
Legitimately upset.
>>122706985
>walker assault on cloud city
>city sinks
>>122688067
The game itself without DLC is only worth 20 to 30 dollars in my opinion. Don't pay full price expecting a game with as many features and options as Battlefield 4 or even the old Battlefront games, for instance. Otherwise, you'll be disappointed.
>>122701968
I hate that you have to reach high ass ranks just to unlock shit. If you're not a goddamn pro or play 24/7 its going to take forever to get there.
>>122707824
>be rank 1
>play against people rank 25 stacked on the other team
nice game
>>122703627
>music sound being cut?
Wait, there's supposed to be music? The only time I hear it is when I'm playing walker assault and the shields are down.
>>122708171
its in other game modes when shit happens I think
who /jawablaster/ here
>>122708419
muh nigga
>>122708029
They also have better weapons which will kill you in a few shots, while you're suck with rank <10 stuff, that despite getting the first shots in at their vital spots, you still die.
Luke is a pretty good Hero to get
>>122708578
i know
they also have jetpacks and fucking lock on infantry rocket things and sniper rifles and all sorts of other shit
>>122708616
someone is top mad there
>>122708685
I wanted to keep playing to get the jetpack to level the playing ground but lost patience. First day I was doing well, and then 2nd day when people started getting better shit, I was dying in seconds. I could barely get any kills or objectives done and leveling got slow as hell for me. I always feel like I have the disadvantage.
Majority of my deaths were from campers on the high ground, sniper fire, detonator spam, and homing missiles.
>>122709253
at least in the beta it was easy to catch up
i was going to just fly around and kill stuff in air vehicles but I cant even do that anymore, because the flying was changed from beta to now and I just cant do it
also the game runs a lot worse now than in beta, for some reason.
>>122709464
runs fine for me except right after game point screen goes down to like 40 frames for some god damn reason
>>122709464
>in the beta it was easy to catch up
I don't know if it's true or not, but that's what I'm thinking too. Or maybe I'm just burnt out from playing so much of it.
As for performance it runs as well as it did for me in the beta. Maybe you should check your drivers, I know Nvidia released a new one just before launch.
>chosen to be the emperor 4 times in a row
He's pretty shit. Haven't enjoyed playing as any of the heroes though.
Snow speeders control like absolute feces
Seriously, who designed these?
>>122706985
>no cloud city
>no death star
>no star destroyer
>no space battles but I'm sure they could have easily done the same shit as fighter squadron but better
These are just a few reasons for the refund.
>>122710135
makes sense though since they have the ability to completely fuck up a walker
>>122710307
I understand but what the fuck man their going up/down ability is just fucked
>>122710130
He is pretty shit. I rather play as the shock troopers but I never get the chance. Vader is tons of fun.
>>122679226
>
3rd person + strafing + heavy weapon = 70/15 k/d
movement, crouching, ADS, does nothing to increase or decrease accuracy. just keep moving and shooting for headshots and its easy mode
pistols rape close range tho
So who do you think are going to be the DLC heroes/villains? Chewbacca and Lando are likely but I can't think of any villains from the original trilogy.
>>122710579
There has to be a TFA DLC, right?
They'd be fools to not do it
>>122710579
maybe from te series star wars rebels?
>>122710575
I think Dice nerfed the heavy weapons. I was getting easy kills in beta, but in the actual game it feels like it has just as much of a chance as the normal blasters.
Hand blasters are great but skill means shit when the other guy as a better one than you.
>>122710579
IG-88 maybe
How the fuck are people so bad at flying. I've had fighter squad games where im the only person on my team to actually kill another player
Some dong at forbes commented about how the only good mode is walker assault. Does that make this game a redbox rental at least for now?
>>122710845
I don't think they'll add anything that isn't from the original trilogy. If they did, I rather they throw in clone wars stuff from the prequels. Customization also needs more stuff, and it shouldn't be locked behind high level ranks, but I doubt they're going to do anything about it.
>>122710130
Boba Fett is goat
>Heroes vs Villains
>Get Leia 3 times in a row
>>122711070
That person is right though. It's one of the biggest game modes and everything else is a close quarters COD-tier casual gun fight with small player count and map.
Supremacy on the other hand has the same amount of players but they fucked it up by not letting you choose spawn points and vehicles (not damn power ups), and it's literally the same as Walker Assault except there's no AT AT walkers.
Why the fuck does the game not automatically shuffle teams after a match. It's literally a shitter stack versus a team that knows what they are doing every game and you just have to pray a slot opens up on the good team
>>122711614
kinda liked some of the smaller game modes though
>>122710579
Obviously Kylo, Rey and Finn
>>122711826
Yeah. But then again you remember that this is from the same people who have decided to forsake the ability to choose severs as well.
Fuck yeah I made the right decision to refund.
>>122711614
Supremacy is awesome you scrub
>>122711974
Well more pros for you then. In my view, I like large scale maps and battles and think they suit a game like Battlefront better. I might have enjoyed those other modes more if they let us choose different sized maps and player count.
>>122712269
But anon, I'm not shitting you, it could have been better.
>fighter squadron
>go behind millennium falcon
>keep blasting into it
>score climbs so fast and so high
mmmm score pinata
>>122712934
It's fucking retarded how much damage the hero ships can take. You need 5 people shooting at it for a minute straight to take it down. So the entire match boils down to which team doesnt have the retard that crashes it into the ground. While the good player acts as bait and lets his team murder anyone chasing him.
this game is great but i feel like its missing something. maybe more customization? such as blaster customization? idk.. only thing i hate is i have never seen a completed walker assault game.. when it gets too long people drop out of the game and more people join so its just one never ending game of walker assualt. i play other game types now cause i aint getting shit for credits in walker assault. plus i feel like the walker assault map is too narrow which makes it way too easy for the rebels to see where anyone is coming thus making it impossible to disable anything. also the instant death every time i spawn is getting annoying. other than that im enjoying it so far.
i want the space battles from battlefront 2 where you got to fuck up the enemy ship from the inside. those were the good ol days.
team balance in this game is so shit though
>one team is 6 people, 1 is afk, 2 suck ass
>other team is 8 people who all play, all decent
epic
>>122711614
this.
i love supremacy more than walker assault mainly because ive never been able to actually complete a walker assault because it last so long people drop out and other people join in non stop.
yes supremacy could have been better but i think its cool. its like that mode from gears of war.. the king of the hill game where the hill keeps moving around. seriously though fuck the spawning in this game. it is shit tier garbage bullshit
>>122713547
fuck I know that feel
>try blast
>team is losing by 50 kills
What are you impressions anons ? I had ton of fun with 10 hours EA access bullshit. Literally going berserk with all the kids playing it.
Didn't like the DH-17 in the beta but it's my favourite now, it's lethal at close range.
>>122713547
that and the spawning is dumb as shit. so the 8 people who all play are basically spawn camping the 6 people, the 1 afk, and the 2 that suck ass nuggets
>>122713695
I'm having fun, but I do wonder about the longevity with the content right now
I don't like some of the modes.. or maybe I would if there was servers. Hero Hunt for example isn't super fun, but it might be fun playing it with a bunch of fuckers here.
There are also surprisingly few weapons to unlock
>>122713818
>bunch of fuckers here.
reminds me is their a teamspeak or mumble or anything?
>>122713695
I've only touched Fighter Squadron so far and it's fun as fuck.
>>122713695
Enjoyed it so far, I can understand why people are disappointed though. All I wanted was a third person shooter that I could play every now and then and it's perfect for that with the bonus being it's Star Wars.
>god tier

>noob tier

Discuss
>>122713723
ive been wanting to use close range blasters but most of the game types i play would be better with a long range blaster on me. its annoying as shit though as someone just comes up and literally 1 shots me with some of those close ranged ones. im going for the T-21 or T-21B since i loved sniping in battlefront 2 and its the closest thing to sniping im going to get
>>122713818
holy shit i feel the same. there should be more blasters to unlock or something. maybe more customization with the blasters? idk. but yeah id be down to play some skirmishes with /vg/ as well
>>122713958
People had a lot of expectations when EA teased them. There are also people like me who played the beta, wanted more, and held back on doubts because it was just a beta. Then when the actual game came around, they played it and realized it wasn't much more than the beta.
Waiting for a solid successor to SWBF2 for years and then having all your hopes crushed when the game was not as you expected or wanted it to be. Not to mention any sequel will more or less be the same.
>>122714332
should we make a steam group or someshit?
>>122713695
i feel like this game will be like titan fall or hawken where the community will die and the only game you can find is team deathmatch which i fucking hate.
however even though this game is lacking a campaign, the survival modes are pretty fuck and a good way to get some credits. i just wish my friends bought this game so i can do it on hard without dying and get 1000 creds. but no all my friends are busy playing fucking faggy fallout.
>>122714414
hell yes man id be down. /swbg/ good?
>>122714510
If you haven't yet, do the missions. There's like 5 of them with 3 stars you can get in each, decent credits and fun there too.
The endor speederbike one is very cool.
>>122714668
sounds good to me
What the fuck were they thinking when they made Boba Fett stronger than every other hero combined?

>>122719403
kb+m or controller?
Everyone left ;_;
>>122719752
Keyboard and mouse.
whats the point of air/snowspeeders on non-walker assault maps? They are too slow and unmaneuverable to dogfight and their blasters hardly do any damage to walkers and strafing infantry is a crapshoot.
I wish they could have figured out a way to make endor not super biased towards the rebels. Since it's impossible to see one when they sit still while stormtroopers are super obvious
HOW DID WE LOSE

>>122720460

>>122720657

>>122720460
That reminds me of the Hoth beta where some people thought the bias had to do with movie canon something.
>>122720794
>everyone
Impossible. They have that & scout trooper locked at the highest level rank you can get I think.
>>122718947
everyone else just parrots someone saying that it's a simple re-texture of Battlefield 4
>>122720104
you can strafe Stormtroppers preety easy, and if you are attacking AT-ST, do it from behind. if you got the snowspeeder on Walker Assault, then hide in it untill Y-Wings come down with ion bombs and pray that the team will try to protect you while you have some bondage fun with the AT-AT
do not fight against TIEs since you wont even do any damage
>>122720810
i liked the balance that was in the Beta since it pretty much FORCED people to play as a team
>>122720808
do not let your shuttles get rekt, get their shuttles rekt
>>122720978

lvl 50 for shadow trooper

It's taking ages to rank up. I feel like by the time I get to 30 I'll be too fed up with the game.
> someone saying that it's a simple re-texture of Battlefield 4
Whoever says that doesn't know what the hell they are talking about because it lacks almost everything a Battlefield game has (A lot of what the original Battlefronts also have).
>everyone left so its 2v2
This isn't fair EA
Also post your stats nerds

I've played 19 total games now, 3 on Blast, 11 on Walker Assault and 5 on Supremacy.
I have lost every single game, and none of them were even close.
LITERALLY 100% of games I have been in were completely stacked high rank people on one team, and complete noobs on the other.

>name top three changes you'd like to see
1. Add a fucking tactical roll for all troops.
2. Make the health regen much slower or scrap it all together.
3. Get rid of card system and pickups, add classes with a specific special weapon that has limited usage.
There, game would be an 8/10 now.

3. Server browser.
4. More maps, larger player count on those smaller game modes.
5. Vehicle power ups more accessible. Place more on the map for crying out loud or make them spawn-able vehicles.

Bravo DICE. Only reason people complained in the beta is because theere was no ion launcher for everyone to pack.

You can get it for 10-20 dollars less on sites that sell CD keys. Make sure you go on the legit ones though.
No way in hell is it worth full price. There are solid reasons for that, people aren't being douches. Mostly.

Hey senpaitachi, I'm gonna teach you how to be an ace pilot like me.
Ever wonder why you get blown the fuck up in less than a second? Check your speed. You have one "battery" an everything uses it. Flying full throttle? Your shields are useless. Slow down and stop shooting and you become a tank.
>>122751462
I thought only rebels have shields.
Good to see people are keeping the general busy and alive
Keep it up guys
>>122741247
Buy it on the mexican origin
>>122688180
Super easy to do, safe, tons of people done it since battlefield 3 for all games and it saves you a shitload of money
>>122751943
Shields as in the ship's health. In canon, tie fighters are shield less, but not in game.
The faster you fly, the more damage you take. If you're shooting while full throttle, you take even more.
>>122752128
you deal less damage if you fire while at full speed too
Euro anons,let's play some Battlefront on PC togetherBorklund on Origin

As much as I really want this game, I can't justify spending that much for that little content. Maybe someone'll grab it for me for Christmas.
what the fuck is going on? why don't I have access to the E-11/A280C anymore?
>>122752505
Did you actually buy them? If not, you can only pick them as the empire/rebels
>>122752563
>you can only pick them as the empire/rebels
Right, OK. I can obv pick them on rebel and imps when I join games, but they show up as buyable for any faction in the main menu. Got it.
Jar Jar Hero when?
Is the PC port really that shit on top of it all?
Or is Origin acting up for anyone?

>>122754973

Coruscant when ?
>>122755182
>why customize the trooper at all?
Because it triggers spergs like you.
>>122756026
space battles when
>>122756382
They will probably add it as a game mode dlc or at least space maps, Coruscant on the other hand is basically nothing on the original trilogy but it has the Jedi Temple which is a promising map
>>122748674
i can stream it a bit later if you want
i don't talk and i do not reply to anyone on chatsince i have no option to do so anyway

Hopefully never. I'd rather them focus on better stuff. Maybe add more modes to fighter squadron, and throw it in space if you have to.
But please, nothing like the abomination in BF2.

I don't want this stupid mode people are talking about moving from ground to space combat seamlessly, or anything similar to space combat in BF2. If they're going to do anything in that vein, add different objective modes to the existing Fighter Squadron. Maybe something with ground targets, for example.
>>122757236
>I don't want this stupid mode people are talking about moving from ground to space combat seamlessly
What the fuck is this? Who suggested this? I want a new game mode in space, and space maps for fighter squadron, and special space themed game modes (trench run, star destroyer assault etc.)

Well, there's really only ever two spots they can be at: uplinks/capture points. Also, aiming (like you're targeting another ship) and first person really helps. Only time first person is actually useful.

Fucking rekt
>>122679226
1. better respawns, better yet the ability to pick where i spawn. so often i get thrown miles away from any action, or worse yet get put somewhere enemies are already waiting with explosives.
2. more modes with heroes. something like Heroes vs Villains but instead it's like Blast, all thee heroes respawn infinitely and people randomly get to spawn as them. would be more close to the Heroes mode from BF2 and in my opinion more fun
3. more content really, more maps, more game modes, more weapons and cards. only reason i haven't bought it at this point, just going to rent it for a week because i'm sure i'll get burnt out by then.
>>122761534
i have a lot of heroes vs villains clips, mostly me wrecking all three of the enemy heroes in a single round. i have one where i BTFO a Leia as Fett with only 2 HP. i'll work on them eventually.

That doesnt change how stupid of a concept it is as a game. Its a part of being human but theres not a shitting section in every game either
>>122741202
As far as I can fucking tell no. The rebels spawn within grenade throwing distance of iplolinks and empire spawns about 200 meters away usually. Add that in with there only being 1 walker and you have a match
>>122768881
>stupid of a concept
It's literally the same thing but with a different backdrop. You're the stupid one.
>>122769078
Then why do you want it

>>122769301
So adding a black backdrop with white speckles will change that? Wow
Welp 3 hours later already refunded.
Game has 0 longevity, locking weapons like snipers to cooldowns and no vehicles make walker assault depend entirely on which team hit the coms first.
Don't even get me started on supremacy, If I wanted to play conquest with no vehicles and "standard issue assault rifle" I would just go play cod.

Friend.
Starship vs destroyer, landing in the enemy battleship and disabling shields/weapons/engine was fun as shit.
Fuck man you could disable shields and bomb the com station/thrusters on the ship to disable it too.
Shit was fun as fuck.
Fuck I miss 2142 and battlefront 2 now.

>>122771403

>>122771403
If you can get the super deluxe whatever version for less than 80 i would say thats a good deal. At that point you're looking at 30 maps plus 40ish star cards plus a lot of heroes and game modes so I would say less than 80 is a good dealI used xbox one game sharing and split with my buddy pluss ea access we each spent 50
the hero and villains mode is so fun. feels like they should have dropped any pretense of being a Battlefront game and just focus on the squad based hero battles instead. the giant battles just aren't that fun to me and seem to just be spamming explosives, there was more going on in the older battlefront games.
even playing a grunt in those are fun, it's so badass playing a stormtrooper and fighting alongside Darth Vader.
is there a way to choose side when playing?
>>122774294
Don't think so. Don't even think there's a way to switch teams
Game needs a team shuffler/balancer
>>122774146
Do you know if in time they'll add more heroes to pick from?
always thought that was awesome to have a variety of Jedi in that old starwars game which name I can't remember
>>122773814
Nice anon that was clean i didnt realize han couldnt be deflected
>>122774849
each expansion pack is supposed to have a new hero and villain. i'm guessing at least 2 of them will also have special ships.
>>122774849
Yea i dont know if its 4 more or 4 on each side I've heard varying accounts
>>122774961
only his R1 can't be deflected, it staggers and opens you up for more attacks. but you have to charge it. if you see Han or Leia's blaster glowing red at the tip get the fuck out of there.
best way to deal with vader/sheev is open with R1, pelt them with bolts to bait out their defend and then use triangle/y once they're vulnerable. save your dash to finish them off or chase in the case of sheev.

i'm level 26 from mostly doing hero battles, always in the top 3. games are usually quick, especially if you know what you're doing.
How do the perks or whatever work (Bodyguard, Scout, etc)? Are they a limited use thing like Ion Shot and stuff or are they permanent? Don't want to drop 7k on one and have it be useless.
>10 minutes left on the download
soon
>>122778234
those are passive skills
they go up a level when you get a certain ammount of points and at the moment Bodyguard seems to be the best perk
why is the sarlacc so hidden in battlefront? nobody will fall into it
>>122778538
As in it resets each game and you score points or what?
>>122779212
it resets each game, and it goes down a level when you die during the match
>>122767215
Why would they be non-canon? Just because you don't like the way something looks doesn't make it non-canon. Bothans have looked like that through every novel, video game, artwork, etc.
>>122780478
Because none of those things you just listed are canon
>>122781119
Who's to say Lucas didn't sign off on the appearance of an alien race? Especially one mentioned in the movies. I'd imagine if there's a universal constant for what they look like outside of the movies that's basically what they should be looking like.

the new marvel comics (which are 100% without a doubt canon) also mention bothans

Don't let me get to you anon. You're still an idiot who references noncannon then tries to play off like me making a spelling mistake makes you right. Most likely bothans will look similar to how they were previously set but I doubt they use exactly the previous design. I doubt it will matter and they will most likely not be in the movies. I suggest taking a break from 4chins anon just go for a jog.

Me and 3 other friends went full tryhard on Endor as Imperials. At each stage we personally as a squad locked down one of the transmission points and kept it offline for the whole stage. The rebels were still able to get like 6 or 7 Y-wing bombers each stage because our team couldn't deactivate the other one despite our party doing everything we could to keep the first one offline.

The only thing im afraid of is there won't be enough casuals on pc to continue playing.yea getting mexico edition
>>122786085
Dude the game will definitely have enough players
Don't be crazy, this isn't Titanfall
>>122785992
walker assault heavily favors rebels. which makes every empire win all the more embarrassing for them.
Okay seriously what the hell is the point of the button you press (square for ps4, don't know what it is for other systems) when your weapon overheats? Hitting it makes the overheat last even longer, whereas not hitting anything makes it last much shorter. What the fuck? Am I doing something wrong?
>>122786156
>damage shit speeders
>they can't do tow cables now
>win most of the time
is the mexico trick for PC only or can you get digital codes for the consoles too?
>>122786260
Look at this fucking retard,
Look and laugh.
>>122786260
You need to time it right (yellow part of the cooldown bar)
>hero hunt
>get hero down to 10 or so hp
>die
>someone else gets the kill
>repeat for 15 minutes until match is over with 0 points
this mode is fucking garbage, i don't feel like i'm with a team hunting down anybody, it's just a free for all until someone gets lucky and gets their best hero to play as and wins the game.
>>122786384
the hero vs villain mode is much better if you're just looking to play as the hero units.
>>122786324
>laugh because the game never explains the mechanic to you
>>122786384
I think hero hunt would be fun with /swbg/ if we had a server browser
Just to take a piss on each other
But with randoms, yeah, awful.
>>122786528
>the game needs to hold my hand for me to figure oout stuff
XDDD
>>122786538
there's a steam group and you can make groups on ps4, if DICE would just fix the match finder not keeping parties together it would be pretty easy to do.
>>122786336
Thanks.
>>122786618
Yeah god forbid games actually explain their controls these days right?
>>122745920
The hero should have a presence on the battlefield. Whenever I make your own focus more around sticking with large groups of my teammates so I can do something cool in front of them to give the morale.
If you are just hanging in the back and acting like a coward and waiting for your cooldowns to refresh, you're a fucking douchebag who doesn't deserve the title of hero.
>>122786706
Yeah god forbid people use logic! Why can't games these days have a book explaining all the tricks and tips?
>>122786324

>>122784839
>>122784889

>>122784998
But if it actually reached high amount of sales EA would go out and brag about it to bring more sales
>>122786804
You're right I should have totally used logic to determine that "PRESS SQUARE" with no other kind of instruction meant I had to press it at an exact certain time.
I'm not paying attention to when a bar goes yellow like its a stoplight in the middle of a battle. If I had known what to look out for beforehand, I would have paid attention to see if the bar changes colors.
I played the companion app mini-game before release, it's rewards were really shit.
Are the rewards any good in the new stages they have added if anyone tried it?
>>122787071
how the fuck do you beat the last mission
>windowed mode is appearantly supposed to be a fix for some kinds of crashes
>making the game windowed 1920 x 1080 makes the screen cover only 1/3 of my screen
What the hell?
>>122787297
turn off the game
>>122787297
The last mission of the one that was available pre-launch? just retry and get lucky with the random buffs
>>122787297
I tried to get 3 stars on the one with the AT-AT before game launched for ages
I swear it was impossible
Do impact grenades disappear as soon as you die? I've thrown a few at enemies when I'm close to death and they never hit and when I respwan I have to wait for it to refill so it was definitely thrown.
>>122787319
maybe try borderless?
>>122762450
>we dont even know how bothans look like
I would fucking fight you in real life. Bothans have been depicted in countless books, comics, and video games, including one of the best sandbox MMOs ever aka Star Wars Galaxies.
>>122767215
Pretty much every Star Wars alien that isn't just a recolored human is some sort of frog-insect and therefore fuck ugly.
Star Wars seriously has a severe lack of fuckable aliens.
How do I get the mil falcon or slave in fighter squadron?
How do I know where exactly all the hero powerups and at-at powerups spawn?
>>122787021
>I'm not paying attention to when a bar goes yellow like its a stoplight in the middle of a battle.
You sound so autistic its impossible
>>122787580
on every comic they looked a little different, its not stablished. check the wook for info.
i would hug you in real life
>>122787526
Solved it but of course the game just crashes after 10 minutes now instead of after an hour.

I beat the boba fett base command mission, got an error message, and now I have to do it again

the hero token randomly takes the place of another token, there's no way to guess where it'll be other than camping places that are naturally abundant in tokens. same for dogfighting.

did you just buy some alienware without a clue on what's in it?
>all this anime shit
>>122788805
Well 4chan is a website for people interested in Japanese culture and anime to come together to talk about said Japanese culture anime as well as other things.
So, duh?
>>122788102
Ok anon. What do you want the Bothans changed to look like? Do you want them to look like dog people? Is that where you're going? Do we want a fully-fledged furry race in Star Wars? We already have those Amaran and werewolf-looking races, which are probably not even canon by now.
>>122788805
The only reason to have an avatar in gaming is to get a rise out of people.
>>122788952
i just want to see a canon version of it, i like the old design but i don't like how they where showed as a spy-race, sounds kinda stupid.
we have canon cat people, its on the Lando comic

>>122787950
Irony of your posts are overwhelming.
>>122789762
I shit on Boba. Its leia people should be worried about fuck that slut.
>>122789762
Luke reks him but otherwise yeah he's really fucking good, best hero unit on imp side no doubt. sheev is way too reliant on team mates.
>>122789880
Haven't played leia yet, what does she do? I saw she basically has a mimic ability of the emperors shock troopers
Pulse cannon worth using?
>>122788641
I'm playing the companion app on my phone you retard
I don't have a clue what graphics card my phone has
all they have to do
is take these graphics/sound design
and give us all the modes from bf2/maps
and you will litterally have a perfect star wars game, it really isn't that complicated, they're half way there
Aside from Kylo Ren and probably Phasma, do you think there are any other possible empire heroes?
>>122790015
No she has a shield that recharges faster than it is broken and a 1 shot pistol powerup that can shoot through it. Plus she can self heal
>>122790015
L1: charge up shot, her shots do massive damage for a short time and stagger heroes even through blocks (Vader, Sheev)
triangle: shield powerup but more powerful than the normal one
R1: summons an item token, or hero health powerup on heroes vs villains
she's not all that great in my experience, would much rather have Luke or Han
>>122790032
If you can aim
>>122790120
DLC, goyim. You'd shekel out some more money for actual BF2 modes wouldn't you?
Good goy
>>122788805
>they are better at this game than you
>>122706165
>>122706406
It's utter fucking garbage compared to the beta, I don't know why they changed flying.
>>122790120
You forgot
>remove the token system
>>122790032
it's basically this game's version of an AWP, on maps like sullust it's a monster. really just depends on how good you can aim.
>>122790165
so far all the heroes not only have similar roles but also similar themes.
Vader and Luke are both Jedi
Sheev and Leia are both monarchs, support units
Fett and Solo are both grey-area criminals and combat units
my guess would be Count Dooku if we get any Clone Wars heroes and IG-88 if R2D2 ends up being a hero units. prequels really have more characters to draw from than the original trilogy.
wtf leia
>am vader
>leia shoots me
>permastunned by every shot
best blaster is SE-14C
I really cant play an imperial without using imperial weapons, destroys my canon
>>122790120
I'm honestly really upset whenever I boot up the game. I miss the clones/droids so fucking much, especially a lot of the prequel maps.
I have issues that the game is an easier Battlefield, but I can get over it at some point.
>>122790032
I don't like the charge up, but that's probably just me.
I just want my space musket but it's like one of the last things you unlock ;_;
>>122788805
>being a anti-anime minority
>>122791060
see >>122790201
she gets charged up shots for like 7 seconds or so, each shot staggers you. if she's doing her job she'll be supporting her team mates so it leaves you wide open for them to pelt you. even worse if Han or Luke are nearby too. that said after she uses it she's completely helpless. you should be okay as long as you get the drop on her.
>>122791136
it's pretty disgustingly broken, especially with explosive shots. you can take out almost all of a hero's health if they don't defend.
>>122791140
i find it ironic because the prequels themselves were awful but the EU about them was great. the clone wars cartoon and battlefront 2 were the best things about the prequels, not the films themselves.
H-how is it lads?
I-it's not as bad as they say is it?
>>122791558
its okay
its just that it could be ALOT better
dlc will fix it a little we hope, can't believe I just fucking said that about dlc holy fuck only for star wars
>>122791558
it's a 7/10 in real scores, not video game journalist "anything below a 9 is fucking garbage" scores. the game itself is great, really fun, it's just sorely lacking in content on all fronts. the $100 pricetag for all the content doesn't help it either.
>>122790486
When I fly in third person I do absolutely fine. But god damn it I want to experience the battle in the cockpit of an X Wing but my sensitivity is completely borked in first person mode and I over correct and fishtail out the ass.
Some people keep saying to just use controller. But damn it no. I can't completely rebind the controller inputs for my PC. And if I'm going to play a Star Wars game with a controller I want the controls to be exactly like how they were in Star Wars Rogue Squadron. I want my trigger buttons to be my acceleration and deceleration.
it will get better with time
>>122791558
It's fun, just needs more maps for supremacy and walker assault
and ingame map
and server browser
and team shuffle/balance
but so far it's fun
>>122791754
have you considered trying xpadder? you can bind any of the keys/mouse buttons to functions on your controller, you could probably manage to make something similar.
>>122791754
>my sensitivity is completely borked in first person mode and I over correct and fishtail out the ass
yea holy shit
tried it since it looks cool as fuck but couldn't even follow another fighter much less shoot one down
ok droid run is the worst mode in the game
I'm only lvl 11 and I've been looking at future perks for me. What's the best Bodygaurd, scout or survivalist?
>>122792308
i played a droid match that lasted a minute and a half because the other team was too busy TDMing to capture the droids.
in my experience cargo is the worst. it's just a explosives spam campfest.
>>122792321
Depends on what blasters you use and if you're a shitter or not.
>>122792321
bodyguard>scout>survivalist
i personally use scout, i tend to go around the edges of the map and catch people unaware or sneak up onto objectives. if you play the 40v40 maps more then definitely go for bodyguard.
>>122792589
I'm using the E-11. I'm alright at the game I've got a 1.4kd.
>>122792768
>1.4 kd alright
is there anything more useless than speeder bikes on endor?
what happened to all the webm's, keep em coming, they were getting funny as shit
Reading all the bad press on the game I'm starting to fear that I might regret this purchase. But at least Kinguin auto-delivery fucked up and gave a second key, which I gave to a friend and now I have someone to play with. Any other if the game will be supported post release besides DLC and we will see some gameplay improvements?
>>122793898
Trying to win Walker Assault as Empire on Endor
I can dominate the sky easily but I find it hard to do anything useful against ground targets in ships, strafing runs
much harder than in battlefield
>>122795028
I thought they were easier since blasters do AoE damage and hitting someone directly actually does something at least on infantry
>>122795028
I spend most of my airtime as rebels, killing AT-ST's and heros. As Imps I don't have much to do usually.
>>122788952
>Do you want them to look like dog people?
That's basically what Wookies are. Chewbacca was inspired by Lucas' dog.
>>122793975
that's all i have. that was all from 2 days of play so i'm bound to have more by the end of the week.
>>122793975
I can barely get a stable 50 fps on low settings. Trying to get video to make webms would probably kill my GPU
>>122793975

How does anybody play this alone?
>mfw I ran into enemies and melee'd 4 of them in a row
>>122796552
I'd kind of like it if it wasn't for the AT ATS.
I want to be able to chill in the trenches without getting btfo.
>>122798154
just gotta make sure your air force isn't brain dead
>>122798343
It's nice when people thank you in team chat for killing all the AT-STs really fast
I wish I could always be Luke, 24/7
He's so fun
>people are now running around with DL-44/Jetpack/Personal shield/Bowcaster

I prefer boba
>>122799747
Bowcaster does more shots the longer you charge it right? How is it at full charge?
>>122799838
It doesn't even need to hit you and the splash damage from it can kill you
>>122799907
I kinda want webms of it now...
What rank do you need to be?
>good pilots
How the fuck do you even contest?
How do they move so smoothly when the piloting is so detailed?
I don't fucking understand how people can be this good when the game has been out for a day.
>>122799985
The filthy americans have two more days than us you know.
>>122800094
I don't think I'm playing with Americans, I'm European.
Is the flying just really similar to battlefield or something? You can't shake these guys, no matter what evasion you pull, or if you fuck with speed, fly in random patterns etc, they won't miss a shot. I have a guy in my current game who is 23-0 and haven't left his fighter since the game started.
>>122799985
>>122800275
A lot of ace pilto mains use controllers and ONLY fly.
>>122799947
It's the last star card you get. I think somewhere in the rank 30 for it.
>>122799985
Using an xbone controller for all vehicle combat
protip upgrade your thermal detonator card asap

>>122800385
>>122800339
I guess I'll grab my ps3 controller and see if it makes a difference
>>122800549
Is upgrading the pulse rifle worth it?
>>122800819
It just gives it a 3s lower cd. If you use it a lot I guess it might be worth it, but I'm not that big a fan of it in the first place.
it's a bit unfair how empire ships are 5 times worse than a-wing
>>122801585
Empire has at-st to compensate.
>>122801585
>watch last weeks rebels episode
>tfw no b-wing to obliterate empire with
>spawn just to die nearly instantly 7 times in a row
This is a new type of rage I haven't experienced before.
>>122801585
At least it's canon that empire ships are fucking awful, that whole quantity vs quality approach
>>122801852
Can't have played many games with poor spawns before then.
>people using bowcaster on the small maps
Who thought this was balanced? you win every encounter with it. Also god damn, cargo is the most intense fighting yet, at least on the airship bay one. The worst map ive played on was the snow map for drop pod. If you spawn in the caves youre basically going to lose that fucking pod, it takes too long to get out.
Overall though im pretty happy with this game, people complaining about 4 maps dont know what the fuck theyre talking about, I just wish I had some of my friends playing it too.
Some of these spawns are absolutely terrible
>Endor Supremacy on Rebels side spawns you inside a bunker with both exits being guarded by Stormtroopers ready to fuck you up
>Hoth Walker assault as Empire spawns you at the bottom of a ditch letting the Rebels have the advantageous high ground
>>122803294
>>122803294
I can't believe DICE lets a faction have the high ground by default. It's like they know absolutely fucking nothing at all about Star Wars lore. The High Ground is unbeatable.
>>122803615
Only if you're Anakin.
Is riding on top of the AT-ATs ever a viable strategy?
Which UNLIKELY hero would you want to see the most?
I vote for Sio Bibble
>>122803897
Figrin D'an
>>122803705
Wrong, the high ground is a higher state of being in Star Wars, next to unbeatable. Everyone can use it, Obi-Wan perfected it by discovering the metaphysical high ground, he realised that you always have the high ground from a certain point of view.
>>122803897
For Bespin DLC
>>122731450
Having fun
>>122804363
fuckin shrekt
If anything, DICE hit the mark spot on for sound and visual design. Never played a star wars game that made me feel as star wars before.
>>122803897
seeing an HD Kyle Katarn would be amazing, too bad he's non-existent now.
i'd be interested in seeing what they'd do with old Ben Kenobi, mind trick seems like it'd be amazing for trolling. it'd be cool if they would revive the Dark Side Ben concept from Battlefront 3 too. seems like it'd be a nice homage to the original team.
>play walker assault
>play by myself
>do okay, win most rounds, k/d a shit
>supremacy
>living god mode activate
Seriously what gives? Is it cause supremacy is more kind to people playing by themselves? Also that first heavy blaster you get is fucking op as shit.
>>122804610
yeah for all the shortcomings i just find myself in awe of what's going on. the Hero vs Villains mode is the most fun just because of how cool it is playing a Stormtrooper and fighting alongside Darth Vader consistently.
Don't know if I'm being one shotted or its my shitty wifi I'm having to use.
>>122804816
I can't wait for the inevitable full on hero vs hero mode like in bf2.
It's certainly coming, only reason they didn't release with it is because there's only 6 release heroes. Fucking EA, selling us such a core part as DLC.
>Want to spawn right next to emperor senpai
>Fall through map
>Fall far, far away
Rented this at Redbox today, any PS4 bros want to play?
So what's your favourite hero so far?
I like Boba. Feels like Luke and Vader are underpowered everywhere but Hoth tunnels.
>>122805803
Luke
So fucking fast and fun
>>122805803
I love playing palpatine but I wish he would unzip his lightsaber at the spinning-forward ability because it's obviously supposed to be that weird spin attack he does when he insta-wreks that jedi master in Ep3.Except it's not an attack at all in the game but just a speed boost but still
Reminder to do some vs AI battles if you need credits, just beating one on Master nets you 1700 credits. Beating it well 2700, cap of 3100.
5-6 min games.
>>122806184
I wish he would use a lightsaber at all, no need to have lightning as the normal attack and then have it again as a special ability. I suppose I should be thankful because luke and vader often suck ass, since you have to get real close.
>>122806715
It makes more sense for Sheev to not use a lightsaber, he's supposed to be the most powerful sith of all time and straight up looks down on sabers in ep6. It was a big mistake by Lucas to give him a saber in ep3 and shows that he doesn't remember how his characters were originally written, same with Yoda.
>>122806902
Fucking yoda hero when?
>>122724470
I am actually pretty worried of this.
>>122806902
Ehhh, giving Sheev a lightsaber though gives writers the opportunity for them to display him as a ridiculously ferocious duelist and swordsman which he is. Especially when he wrecks the shit out of Maul and Savage Opress.
>going berserk multitask beast
I feel almost bad ruining people's experience.
Fuck this game
Just returned it for full refund. Fucking worthless reaction-based no strategy CoD/Halo bullshit.
This game could have been so good... so disappointed.
>>122807524
It also ruins his character, he's a corrupting, shadowy presence, the puppeteer. Not a brutish fighter. He doesn't need a saber, he's above weapons. At least that's how he was presented in the OT.
>>122767545
It just feels different from most other games that way. It makes it less like a third or first person shooter, and more like a weird destroy the flag gamemode that's surprisingly fun.That and you can act like a star pilot.
>>122807695
I never liked the space part of space battles in BF2 to be honest.
The dogfighting was fun, but the capital ships were a drag. Bombing was just not fun at all.
>>122770416
That was the great fun. I miss my intergalactic Risk.
>>122807606
Have you gotten slow, granny?
>>122807839
>tfw only 22
>feel myself getting slower already
I miss being 16 and having the razor sharp reflexes of a fucking snake. Better play a lot of these reaction based games before I hit 27-30 and am completely outclassed by the kids.
based vehicle combat and heroes letting me pad my k/d
>>122807839
I like to actually think when I play games, not sperg out on my mouse every time someone jumps into my FOV.
I fucking WISH this was a battlefield game with a SW skin like everyone was saying with beta. Its worthless CoD crap for ADD children.
>>122808346
What, you want ironsights?
The beta was open, why didn't you try it before buying it? Some of us like having free movement while shooting.
>>122807802
Attacking the outside of the ships would have been better if there was more of a noticeable effect of doing so.
>>122808072
I'm a bit older than that but I don't see a difference to when I was younger.Mostly because I was always mediocre at shooters.
>>122808346
>praising battlefield and damning cod in the same post
But except for the tanks they're the same game
>>122808072
>play tf2 on release, got it with the orange box
>utterly shut down hallways as sniper
>if I saw you, you were likely dead from a headshot already
>play it now, years later
>Can't even shoot people obliviously running right towards me
I know that fucking feel.
>>122808505
I did, it was fun but limited. The full game is much worse, way too fast paced and reactionary. No real choke points, no ways to flank (people just spawn behind you anyways yayy), no hardcore mode, 50 blaster shots dont kill anyone and the entire game is run and gun, even in walker assault.
>>122808809
I played Quake and Starcraft almost exclusively back then, so I guess I notice it more.
>>122808890
literally nothing alike except they both use guns.
>>122805803
Han>Luke>Leia
Fett>Sheev>Vader
Nothing in this thread has convinced me to even try this game. It still seems like a quick 'n' easy cash-grab.
Good job, EA.
>>122810150
...okay?
I didn't know we were attempting to convince you from the start, random anon.
So how much of a jew game is this? Last I heard it had like 20% gameplay of the Battlefront 2 one and you are going to buy the rest with DLC packs.
>>122811016
people like to shitpost
most probably havent even played it
>>122811016
It's good, could be more, and it's EA so they're guaranteed to cut the game up and sell it to us pincemeal.
I prefer it to BF2 as is though, and I picked it up for about 35 bucks so I'm happy.
Hello /swbg/
We have a Steam group right now so that we can get organized and play together. If you join the group please provide your Origin name either in the comments or in group chat. I (Arcradin420) will always be in group chat 24/7 and try my best to check the group comments often and add people to my origin list. Fill free to add me on Origin as well. My Origin name is the same as my Steam name.

Well bowcaster has shitty pullout time
>>122811016
im enjoying it. no campaign which is okay cause there are like 8 different multiplayer modes, missions, survival games, etc. the customization is shit desu but i do like the hands you can do (basically extra abilities you can have, you dont have to choose a certain class to have a jet pack or a sniper rifle. right now im a fucking sniper with a jetpack and shit its awesome)

>The game itself without DLC is only worth 20 to 30 dollars in my opinion. Don't pay full price expecting a game with as many features and options as Battlefield 4 or even the old Battlefront games, for instance. Otherwise, you'll be disappointed.
Holy fuck this game makes my destiny buyers remorse feel like nothing. You nailed it. I have not been this bitter in years.
I got around to installing it after I needed a break from fallout 4. After 4 hours of gameplay I have seen and done everything there is. Walker assault mode is almost viable and the rest is pure filler in tiny little console maps.
I've unlocked most of the blasters and the basic pistol still seems the most viable. All the heavy or rapid fire weapons seem like shit. Finally got the T-21 (love the gun in star wars lore) and after 2 rounds with it I am ready to uninstall this game.
When is the first DLC due?
>when your team is so bad they can't win fighter squadron as shield equipped A-Wings and X-Wings
>>122825806
think jakku comes out for the movie
Enjoying the game but I'm extremely unlucky. If I'm running behind teammates towards someone I'll get dropped first, I spawn near orbital strikes, run onto the exact spot where a grenade is dropping, spawn in an at-st and be one shotted within 30 seconds and all kinds of other shit.
>>122825945
>think jakku comes out for the movie
Is Jakku a level or a full movie?
If it is just another map the size of my backyard it won't be enough.
>>122826348
>Full movie
Full expansion pack, that is.
>>122826478
From their website it says 2 maps and that it's a DLC so guessing not part of the 4 expansions since I think they giving it out for everyone
>>122826804
So nothing with like 16 active vehicles (of multiple types) and 64 players will ever appear on a map in this game? Presumably from console limitations?
>>122715062
i bought it on pc because the game isn't worth $60
>>122826348
I'm also keeping my fingers crossed they'll add clone wars stuff and more customization options, but I have really huge doubts that it'll happen.
>>122827625
there won't be any clone wars shit, it'll be original trilogy and the force awakens
>please be true
>>122825806
Im not going to defend the game, but are you retarded? What were you expecting exactly? If you played the beta and read about the game you knew exactly what you were buying so i dont understand this buyers remorse shit. Can the game be cheaper? Sure because everyone wants games cheaper, but does it deliver less than say cod? Besides zombies, no.
Im not sure why people complain about lack of single player when you buy this game for its multiplayer. Ive bought bf3, bc2, bf4 and not once touched the single player. Same for a few CoDs ive bought because i buy it for the multiplayer and 99% of the people do too because the story is always shit: directed by michael bay.
Same shit with guns. In every game people just want to know what the best gun is then stick with it, if you want a bajillion guns that all shoot similar to each other with slightly different stats then go play planetside 2.
Im not saying this game is 10/10, its honestly a solid 7. Or an 8.8 if it being starwars is that big of a deal for you, but enough bitching when you knew exactly what it was going to be. Its like intentionally ordering a cheeseburger then complaining that the burger has cheese or some shit metaphor of your choice
Best part of Sullust is hearing this baby taking off
>>122827625
That is what I liked with the original battlefront. It jumped between clone wars and the rebellion. The character classes actually played very differently, especially things like battle droids.
>>122807395
Eventually, some years into the future, you just know EA is going to shut down the servers to cut costs and the game will have 0 playability because they have forsaken true single payer modes w/bots. One day everyone who bought the game at full price + season pass will look back in disgust.
>>122828001
Also, everyone didn't look the same. I miss my diverse teams.
>>122827876
>If you played the beta
I haven't played a beta of any game since the late 90s. No time.
In this case I really wish I had so I would have stayed away.
The early reviews were hard on it, but I was expecting battlefield 4 level of criticism which would have been tolerable. This has 1/10th the depth and gameplay of a battlefield game so I was kind of surprised. I would have been happier with a fan made starwars mod for BF4 over this shell of a game. They really phoned it in.
Nostalgia and love of star wars made this a 7/10, but if this was lacking the brand recognition it would have a generous 5.5/10 o na good day.
>>122828296
at least when people rank up and get aliens as rebels it'll look a little different
>>122828495
And storm trooper helmets coming off. That is sort of neat at first.
>>122827938
This reminds me, couldn't you also pilot a Star Destroyer during the space battles in Battlefront 2? I don't remember.
>>122826930
64 is capable for consoles. They have it in bf4 and hardline. EA decided to be jews and opt out for some reason in battlefrobt
>>122828768
No. They were always stationary
>>122828581
The helmet-less look seems awkward to me. I don't know how to explain it, it just breaks the whole storm trooper persona thing or something. I never bother with that look and was super disappointed when they could have done something else instead like attachments, pilot trooper, or shock trooper/ 501st color themes.
Also, sometimes I think the helmet less guys are rebels and fire at them. Or if I'm on the rebel team I don't fire on them and realize a second too late that they're storm troopers. Jesus.
>>122828768
they are stationary but you fight inside them. I believe you could control the gun turrets though.
Just watch a space battle in this video to get a feel for what we are missing. Drop ships are mobile spawn points, there are healign items and teamwork objectives to gut the enemy capital ships:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1Ddi_fK2fU
>>122828859
Maps arent big enough for it honestly. I mean i guess they could have made bigger maps but then you want vehicles and the rebels literally have jackshit for vehicles, at least from the movies.
I dont know why the demand for 64 though, the way they made the maps you still have clusterfuck fights
>>122829118
I was kinda hoping you would be able to bail out of starfighters and would be a rebel pilot or tie pilot and just run around with a blaster pistol
>>122829204
maps are already too big, it takes forever to run from spawn to get back into action
>>122829235
That would have been neat. Battlefield 4 does that, when you leave your helicopter or jet you have the appearance of a pilot.
>>122829235
I wanted a troop transport to give variety to spawn points, but in this enemies just spawn in a massive area (or behind you).
>>122829332
should have just given them a pistol in battlefield so they didn't use everything as a taxi
Has anyone here played BF Elite Squadron? I kind of liked it more than Battlefront 2 and thought it had potential to become an actual Battlefront 3 if they tried.
Also, you could get from ground to space or vice versa within a match.
>>122829339
The spawning seems kinda fucked in Dice Battlefront.
>>122771618

>>122830184
Why on earth would they get rid of being able to choose spawn points? Seems like people are randomly spawned anywhere on the map to mess with the odds of the match. I got spawned behind more than several enemies once.
Again this is Arcradin420. We have a Steam group to help us get organized and play together. Post your Origin name in the group comments or in group chat and I will add you when I am online (or add me on Origin. My name is the same as my Steam name). I will always be in the group chat so if you post in there I will eventually see it, but post in the comments so other people can add you as well. I am signing off for the night so this is just another reminder. Thanks and I hope to see more of you on the battlefield soon. So far we had a good night doing walker assault and some supremacy gameplay.

it seems less terrible i nthe structured walker modes, but every other mode has spawn poitns that are completely fucked.
>>122831674
So it's not just me then? I thought Dice said they fixed this shit, what the hell?
>>122832080
They only beta tested walker assault
I just respawned literally inside an enemy and neither of us could shoot each other (as we were actually in each others character model).
They suicide with an impact grenade which was probably for the best.
>>122834914
how horrifying
Sometimes I'll pick up an A-wing or interceptor and then I'll do the "calling in air support" animation but nothing will happen. The power up will get used and I'm stuck on the ground. This happen to anyone else?
Die A-Wings
Does anyone else have trouble with co-op missions?
Me and a friend can play one match, but then get "this session is no longer available" when trying to start the next game.
We both have to close and re-open the game to fix it, but that is super annoying.
Happens for all the co-op stuff, training, missions, survival.

Page 9 bump
im probably going to buy this but i have a question.
how do the star cards work? like if i pick the sniper star card, do i just always spawn with a sniper and i can use it? what do the cooldowns mean?
it says the grenade cards have a cooldown, does that mean they're infinite? what about the rockets?
>>122853026
When you get the card, you spawn with both your blaster and the sniper. You only get like one shot with the sniper before it has a cooldown so you can use it again. This along with the grenades and rockets and shit like that are infinite, pretty much.
>>122853026
you can choose 2 items and an ability, they are infinite but have a cooldown.
you only have one weapon unless you choose a rifle or pistol as an item (same slot as jump pack and grenades) and you can only fire one shot like you would use a grenade then it will need to cool down before it can be used again
the special card slot does stuff like let you boost your weapon for a few seconds or focus more or have a scan pulse and stuff
>>122843192

>>122859010
Really weird how Bothans haven't made it in the game while Zabrak and Ishi Tib have.
If this game had better air controls, a nerfed DL-44, and Conquest, I'd give it a 10/10.
Playing as Han in Heroes vs. Villains is so much fun.
>>122858435
whoops.
How the literal fuck are players in fighters constantly locking on to me the very second I spawn, it's impossible to even control this shit so perfectly

>>122864031
what about ion torpedo if you're a rebel.
>>122864031

So, from a balance standpoint, why do the rebels not get any land vehicles, other than the speeder bike on endor?
>>122863448
Then post your proof mate.
>>122866732
Ehh, they get turrets though.
>>122866732
What land vehicles do you remember from the original trilogy?
Since Blast has two variant maps of each planet, why couldn't they do the same for the other game modes?
So guys, not trying to start a shitstorm - just genuinely curious.
Why did you shell out 60 USD for a game that is purposefully cut in half so they can charge you 50 USD more?
Are you all so well-off that dropping ~110 USD on one game isn't really a concern?
Was it worth it for you?
Man. Playing the little tutorial bits really makes me wish this game had a campaign. It has potential.
>>122869063
I only shelled out roughly 30 bucks.
>buying it from Origin
>>122869246
What language do you have in your version?
>>122869063
Yes it's worth it for me. I'm having genuine fun with the game. The DLC price sucks, so i might not even buy it.
>>122869293
English. I bought it from a local store.
>>122869445
In what country is it "located"?
>>122869620
Sweden.
>>122869063
I wouldn't say I'm well off but that $110 USD is going to be over the span of atleast 6 months. In 6 months I make enough to cover that expense.
>>122869685
Right, but do you think it's a fair price for what you're getting?
I guess maybe the question is more about that than "can I afford it"

>>122859367
As much as I personally want Bothans in the game, they are canonically shorter then your average human. Dice probably didn't include them for balance reasons, and they will only stick to aliens that are average human height.
At least... I think that they're shorter. They could get pretty short in Star Wars Galaxies, but I've read some comics that show Bothans being just as tall as humans.

I'll go crazy at some point.
>>122873595
Had to google IG-88. You really want a villain that has like 1 minute of screentime? I know he's EU, but not everyone will recognize him. Then again, i dont know which other Empire villain could fill that role.
>>122869953
Can this CoD dudebro meme end already? K/D has never ever mattered since games veered away from Unreal Tournament type of gun play.
Vehicles, killstreaks, scorestreaks and a variety of other factors in modern games has rendered k/d an utterly meaningless stat.
Sorry for the shameless self-promotion, but this needs to be fixed. Explosive shot is far too powerful.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvEU15r2AKU
>>122873847
Boba Fett has like 20 seconds of combined screen time in the original trilogy and says like two lines.
>>122873595
Maybe Kenobi, Chewie, or any of the other bounty hunters as well. Lando if we get cloud city. I can't really rule out Yoda either, even though it seems ridiculous.
>>122874118
What powers would Yoda even have? Definitely not a lightsaber, so I'd assume some sort of voodoo levitation or throwing objects.
>>122874038
Sure, but he has more screentime than IG-88, and fanboys love him for some reason.

>tfw constantly thrown into shit teams
I can't get it past 50% even if I tried.
>>122873858
I wished they removed it. Thats all I see people playing for. Or at least make it a stat that no one else can see unless you post a screenshot. People will probably give less of a fuck about it and maybe try to play the objective for once.
>>122874336
This is one of the few games where I don't feel at an disadvantage, because the teams are so big it evens out quite nicely.

beter yet, the way overwatch displays the play of the game and rewards players for doing exceptionally well is way beter, rather then just punishing those who are low
Just an average walker assult.
>>122874792
But it doesn't matter when you have games where half your team isn't even trying to push forward or trying to flank the enemy when there's a clear way to do it. I'm constantly trying to do these things myself because no one else will and it's futile anyways since I need someone to cover me & provide support.It sucks playing alone.

Anyways, I think they can partially fix camping by doubling the points you get from completing objectives. People who actually contribute to the outcome of the game should be rewarded. Might even make the game more fun, as everyone will be trying to work for the same goal.
