Star Wars Battlefront 2015

Fun fact: Older topic(s) of this were archived, for which the first replies were "it's not gonna happen."

 

Discuss.

 

Came across this, which is what made me make this topic in the first place:

 

 

They mad. I'm hype for this no matter what anyone says.

I mean it's not like that chart doesn't have completely inaccurate information. Which is does.

 

> Nowhere do the developers ever say that this game will only have 8 maps from the start. That's a dumb assumption.

> It wasn't 32v32, it was 16v16 and really stupidly laggy once it got anywhere over 8 players

> The first DLC pack is free

> Instead of a solo campaign, they're going to include a bunch of missions that you can play solo or co-op, which, you know, is exactly like what you saw in Battlefront 1 & 2.

> Also, no one cares about the solo campaign in a shooter, let's be real.

> The developers specifically stated that you can pick any map and play against AI either by yourself or splitscreen

> How the fuck does allowing players to choose their loadout sound anything like a negative?

> There will be more than 2 heroes, they only showed 2. That's a dumb assumption.

> AT-ATs are confirmed playable, so that's just wrong. They're on rails, but they're still controllable. It's not like AT-ATs were absolutely broken in both previous games or anything.

> The chart acts like 5 vehicles shown in the very first trailer is comparable to what we know was in a full game. That's a dumb assumption.

> Several vehicles are confirmed playable, including AT-STs and the several flying ships shown.

> Nowhere does it say that AI will only be in one game mode. That's a dumb assumption.

> No one should care if they don't take anything from the clone wars, there's more than enough to look forward to from GCW and the new films.

 

So that leaves no modding, lack of space battles, and lack of galactic conquest as the only unincluded things from past games, the first of which are just never in DICE games anyway, so it's expected.

Gamers are fucking retarded.  

 

That being said I don't really think the game is going to be good, but these are the same dumbfucks who were crying when Titanfall was announced to only be 6v6 because "it's 2014 and Battlefield has 64v64."

 

Also Space Battles sucked. 

 

Edit:  Oh and the AT-AT on rails thing.  Everyone whining about that can fuck right the hell off.  It's a fucking objective and AT-AT's were terrible in Battlefront II.  It's a fucking AT-AT, not a tank.

>Loadouts
 
So... They went about this in the same manner as the PSP version?
K.
 

Also Space Battles sucked.

Space Battles only sucked because:
1) Vehicles were unbalanced
2) Missiles were damn near undodgable
3) You could easily fuck up the opponent's everything
4) Mines were still Exodia-level
5) Who the fuck wants to get 5+ guys into a single ship, only for it to get shot down within the next few seconds?

TF2 has an on-rails objecti- owait...

And AT-ATs auto-died to Snow Speeders covered in mines anyway, so who cares?
The AT-AT would only win it for the team unless some jackass(typically me or someone else who knew about this) flew a snow speeder covered in mines right into it.
AT-AT would outright fucking explode and disappear. Snow Speeder? Nope. Totally fine. 100% HP and everything.

I want it. I will get it....if I also have something to play it on of course. ^^;

But for real I am fairly certain the game will at least be entertaining even if it's not amazing.

As long as it feels like a Battlefront game and not just Battlefield: Star Wars Edition, then we should be good. Reports from people who played the demo say that's the case.

 

As long as it's not broken on release like Battlefield 4, I should enjoy it. I'm buying it either way.

While I refuse to take a side in this war of opinions and unbacked information, I'm still a bit disheartened by the lack of Galactic Conquest. I can live without space battles (in my experience, it devolved into who can sabotage the fastest anyway), and I don't even have it on anything but OG Xbox so I don't really care about modding. But GC was some of the most fun I've ever had in that game.

 

Also, I hope I can still go Third Person. Seems unlikely, but I still want it.

3rd Person was confirmed on day 1.

Sick rad.

Tbh I might have actually preferred it if they had gone first person only but I realize I'm in the minority there.

Same here. I would be disappointed if they didn't include Galactic Conquest, my best friend and I would spend entire days when we were younger playing Galactic Conquest. I would kind miss Space Battles though, I found them pretty fun. Other than that I never mod, so I don't care about that, while I'd love to have it, I won't miss the prequels.
