He has played Lando quite a bit outside of the movies (Robot Chicken, Star Wars Rebels, other games and even the unreleased Detours), so I wouldn't be surprised.

Goddamn, all the SWBF1 Bespin map nostalgia is kicking in hard. I really wish the game wasn't as expensive and unbalanced as it was, because now its starting to feel worthwhile.
I [sp]liked[/sp] battlefront

[QUOTE=Tuskin;50533777]The Standard edition is 50% off right now. $19.99[/QUOTE] Even then it doesn't have the map/gamemode variety that the original two had for about the same price. I'd be willing to pay $60 for something as polished/gorgeous as SWBF 2015 with all the map/gamemode variety of the originals. (Or atleast more moddable to take advantage of all the wonderful assets)
Oh shit they actually made the old maps, well done Dice, you did [I]something[/I] right. Shame the PC version is deader than shit
Bespin maps were best in BF1. One of the reasons I prefer BF1 over 2 is the one with in-air dogfighting which BF2 sorely lacked.
but isn't this cod infinite warfare?
[QUOTE=SweetTea;50533951]but isn't this cod infinite warfare?[/QUOTE] Nah, it's probably Battlefield 1. Cloud city? Sounds like gas warfare to me.
that gameplay looked hella fun but I'm woried those maps are going to be plagued by mostly long-ranged weapons. How's balancing this thing been anyways, I remember a sniper being stupidly OP, along with an anti-personnel rocket that locked on fast and would often fly a huge arc around the map to come back and hit you if it missed the first time
[QUOTE=Zeos;50533828]Oh shit they actually made the old maps, well done Dice, you did [I]something[/I] right. Shame the PC version is deader than shit[/QUOTE] Is it though? I have no problem finding games for walker assault, dunno (and don't really care) about other modes.
[QUOTE=Niklas;50534303]Is it though? I have no problem finding games for walker assault, dunno (and don't really care) about other modes.[/QUOTE] The bigger modes are more popular I think.
As someone who was cautiously optimistic at first, then ditched it after getting Fett's rifle, consider me intrigued into getting back in the game. Wonder what the new mode is; looks like Evac to me.

It now takes longer to lock on and you also have to be closer to your target. I don't have much problem with snipers either. The one in the beta has been given reduced bulletspeed and the other one has been given a longer cooldown (I think?). [QUOTE=Niklas;50534303]Is it though? I have no problem finding games for walker assault, dunno (and don't really care) about other modes.[/QUOTE] Same here. I can find games easily if I just choose to play any 40 player server but it gets harder if I want to play a specific map. It's nice that they've added the royal guards but hardly anyone plays the emperor anymore so it's not like we'll be seeing them anyway. It's unlikely I'll buy this or any of the other DLC packs. Too expensive and too few players.
Yea, the game is flawed in many ways, I don't like the pickup system, air combat is dreadful and it had a lack of content at launch, though they added some free maps by now. While it still isn't worth full price, the gunplay is suprisingly fun and I got 30 hours out of it so far. I will probably get this DLC and hope the death star one will also be worth playing. I really wish it held up to the hype, so much wasted potential.

I am genuinly excited to see this version of Frostbite in Battlefield 1, Battlefront looked amazing. [editline]16th June 2016[/editline] Battlefield: Vietnam 2 when?

That doesn't count [editline]16th June 2016[/editline] I meant because of the engine, not saying that it was a bad addon.
Bespin and Cloud City is one of my favourite Star Wars places and really shaped my liking for cities in the sky; It's a shame that the map prolly costs $69.95 or someshit.
[QUOTE=Daniel Smith;50535160]Bespin and Cloud City is one of my favourite Star Wars places and really shaped my liking for cities in the sky; It's a shame that the map prolly costs $69.95 or someshit.[/QUOTE] looking at origin really quick, some other expansion was $15, and season pass is on sale at $40 ($10 off), so if you're faithful enough to think you'll get 3 expansions, that's a few bucks saved
The Outer Rim expansion is meh IMO This and the Death star expansion I'm most excited for
I want to like it but deep down I know it's just going to be the same disappointment.
Holy shit, Dengar's voice does [I]not[/I] sound the way I thought it would.
wait so with the imperial guards now being the emperor's guards, does that mean the other troopers are a customization option? if so, thats cool i guess this might get me back into battlefront, the whole dlc that is
Well that kinda sucks because it looks good, but the community is so dead on PC that purchasing this would be a big mistake.
[QUOTE=Scorpo;50536244]wait so with the imperial guards now being the emperor's guards, does that mean the other troopers are a customization option? [/QUOTE] Yes
Wait was Dengar always British? I've never heard him voiced before.
[QUOTE=Tsyolin;50536537]Wait was Dengar always British? I've never heard him voiced before.[/QUOTE] Well, Simon Pegg played him in Clone Wars, and he was played by British actor Morris Bush in Episodes V and VI. [video=youtube;xxvptE8FUvM]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxvptE8FUvM[/video]
one word: tokens. Fun spoilt.
