Is it just me or do the rebels seem ridiculously well-equipped? I mean, all those nebulon-b frigates in the skybox, personal shield generators, jet packs, bombing runs... It seems like they're on par with the Empire. I guess you have to have that in a multiplayer shooter but I think it's a systemic problem in the canon to portray the rebels as well organised and well armed and the empire as stupid and inefficient. Strays from the core ideas a bit too much in my opinion. Nice to hear a female voice on the Imperial side, though. The ladies of the empire are badass.
I don't like the idea of being able to switch in and out of first person. I know it was in the other games but as a competative shooter, I see no reason to get in first person seeing as third person gives me a wider view of the play space. More so than what I could see in first person. I was saying to myself that "oh, i'll just play on first person only servers", but that's not gona be a thing now...
That heavy blaster is broke as fuck

It seems more like battlefront with the way people shoot and move in third person and not battlefield. [editline]14th September 2015[/editline] video got taken down
[QUOTE=Dr. Ethan Asia;48681326]...so don't switch out of third person?[/QUOTE] That means that everyone has an inherent advantage over me thanks to their third person camera. To keep competitive, I to have to play in third person unless I want to handicap myself.
I would see the third person thing as an issue if we were talking about something like Counter-Strike or Quake or something but Battlefront has always been about big open areas, where having a little extra viewing angle doesn't count for much. I think even Battlefield 1942 had a third person option and it wasn't an issue.
[QUOTE=Dr. Ethan Asia;48681326]...so don't switch out of third person?[/QUOTE] Same problem SOCOM always had People just sit in third person looking around corners, when you come running they just strafe out shooting. You have no chance even if you're on a LAN connection. Good luck with 300ms average delay (With a 50 ping the total delay of an action happening and you actually seeing it is about 300ms)

Not really a video they'd want to show off, I think. Half of it was dudes complaining about their team, and the other half was the guy playing camping like a shithead.
