Star Wars Gaming Megathread Episode II - Attack of the Season Pass - Games

[QUOTE=Tuskin;51075109]one of the variants is inspired by the BF2 death star map.[/QUOTE] the one that shipped with the game? because there were a few mod maps of the death star.

[QUOTE=Pops;51076140]the one that shipped with the game? because there were a few mod maps of the death star.[/QUOTE] A dev said it, so I'd assume he meant a default map.

Is the DLC releasing at midnight or is it gonna be released like around noon

Is it normal for there to be very people playing the DLC maps? I've only played for about 4 hours, but most of the time I spent on DLC gamemodes there was only like 4 people. btw i know no one who owns Battlefront, so if anyone wants to add me to play that would be greatly appreciated my username is blankCharon

Someone on reddit found reference to the Space Worm from ESB in the game files. [url]https://www.reddit.com/r/StarWarsBattlefront/comments/53mcf1/exogorth_is_in_the_files/[/url] [editline]20th September 2016[/editline] Reminder, you can try the new weapons in Skirmish mode without owning the DLC. Heroes however are still locked.

[QUOTE=ggctuk;51075254]That is exactly what I'm saying. For the Imperials you only get to choose faces with the Imperial Officer and the Death Star Officer. Stormtroopers always keep their helmets on from now on.[/QUOTE] That sounds great! I wonder why they've suddenly decided to change it so far after release, though.

an unannounced Hero Team Deathmatch mode found in the game files [url]https://www.reddit.com/r/StarWarsBattlefront/comments/53mkwa/hero_blast_unannounced_season_pass_hero_team/[/url]

"Hero Blast"? So, are we thinking something like SWBF2's Hero Assault mode, where everybody can pick a hero or something? Or is it just Heroes vs Villains, stripped down to just having Heroes vs Villains and no standard units?

That's what HvV should have been from the start, only problem being they shipped the game with 6 heroes. You know, I really don't want to get the next game, but if they at least have the same amount of content as this game + all dlc, or something on par with battlefront 2, then I'll look into it.

Was it confirmed that BF2 will have an actual SP?

The official line is that SWBF'2' will have everything the first game has.

IIRC they said it around the time they revealed eafront's campaign had been cut to meet the release date.

[QUOTE=Tuskin;51079189]Was it confirmed that BF2 will have an actual SP?[/QUOTE] I seriously hope it's not just the addition of a campaign that is the core difference between BF1 and BF2. It at the least needs to have a proper vehicle spawn system and classes like the previous games had, along with the removal of star cards. Having the Clone Wars era again would be great as well but i don't see that happening, at least matching the original games in terms of content seems like asking for a bit too much from EA.

They did say there would be multiple eras, but I bet it will be mainly OT and ST.

Saw this on reddit :v: [video=youtube;jxtMVQGaUCE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxtMVQGaUCE[/video]

why didn't he try to run for the exhaust port?

And I believe I read something about a Disney employee saying that they were thinking about rebooting and/or retconning the prequels(although I don't understand why or how since the TCW is considered canon)

They can't retcon the prequels (even if they could, it would be needlessly confusing to retcon the movies themselves), but they can sure as hell ignore them until they go away. The Bethesda method, tried and true. edit: which is really a shame, since the prequels were all good concepts that were just messed up by George Lucas trying to tackle them alone I'd love to see what Disney could do with that time period edit: I got to Rank 7 by just floating along behind this Millenium Falcon and slowly pummeling him :v:

Oh man the trip mines they added to BF take me back. Made me boot up Jedi Outcast and Academy to give them another go. I forgot how fun those games are. But yeah seeing the Bryar Pistol and the trip mines made me happy. I love seeing that notification that someone got blown up by mine xD Trying to unlock the repeater and the Bryar at the moment but I'm stuck on "get 25 kills as Han Solo" for the pistol. I really hate when they make hero requirements for the contract, I can never seem to get their tokens in matches or get selected in Hero Hunt, and I always end up on horribly unbalanced teams for Hero vs Villains. -_-

Having played a decent amount the past few days, this game irritating really fucking quick just due to half the builds people have it. Literally if I added up my deaths it's almost 90% EE4,T21B, and the Jawa Shotgun. And almost always those fuckers have these are their star cards. Jump-pack,Bacta Bomb, and the personal shield. These are the ones who run around with 67 and 5 KD/rs and I honestly cannot tell if some them cheat.

[QUOTE=Bbarnes005;51081245]Disney seems to be going out of it's way to prevent any Clone Wars era games being made because they told EA not to include it in the current one. [/QUOTE] Erm, Disney Infinity had Clone Wars era missions IIRC.

I always just assumed it wasn't included because of EA not wanting to do more work to get it up to the same level of content as the originals. Besides, they aren't ignoring the Clone Wars at all from what i've seen. There just haven't actually been enough game to have them properly included yet, but stuff like Galaxy of Heroes and Disney infinity has it.

Someone on reddit has spotted the space slug [video=youtube;t0vtZlZ0eYk]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0vtZlZ0eYk&feature=youtu.be[/video] [editline]21st September 2016[/editline] There are references in the files that the B-Wings and TIE-Defender were going to be playable, but they're unfinished. I'm guessing budget/ran out of time. This is what Dennis had to say [video]https://twitter.com/DICE_FireWall/status/777951822543814656[/video]

I mean, the actual interior of the Death Star is really rough in some places. Also God forbid you get the droid in between one of the doors (which is guaranteed to happen, given that they are choke points), it begins to freak out
