Info one what we'll see during the Live Stream at EA Play [url]https://www.ea.com/games/starwars/battlefront/battlefront-2/news/ea-play-2017-gameplay-livestream-announcement[/url] [QUOTE]Sleek N-1 Starfighters and Vulture Droids scream overhead spewing light and fire. Nimble AT-RT Walkers race around corners, pursued by roaring AATs. Agile Clone Jet Troopers hop from rooftop to rooftop, while rampaging B2 Super Battle Droids level everything in their path. Armies of Clones and Droids sprint across cover, their blazing weapons shattering the tranquility of the once-peaceful capital of Naboo. And at the center of the swirling melee the lightsabers and Darth Maul and Rey cut swaths through the ranks of the battling troopers. Prepare for the Assault on Theed! On June 10 at 12:30 PM PT, Darth Maul and other cross-era heroes enter the battlefield in a massive multiplayer livestream gameplay event you won’t want to miss. You might even become part of creating it. At EA Play, you’ll be able to watch the first-ever live gameplay reveal of Star Wars ™ Battlefront ™ II, featuring livestream of 40-player gameplay set during the Assault on Theed – one of the new multiplayer battles from the prequel trilogy. Clone Troopers will mount a desperate defense against the invading forces of the Separatist Battle Droids. Can the Republic forces stop the relentless crawl of the massive Multi-Troop Transport as it lumbers toward the palace doors?[/QUOTE]
sweet i'm definitely excited to see some clone v CIS gameplay. especially seeing how great naboo will look
Just repeating what I said in the other thread. It says Darth Maul Vs. Rey. I'm guessing that is because either a) Because they're in all the key art, b) No other heroes are finished yet, or c) They don't want to show anyone else.
If I was an ideas guy for Battlefront EA 2 I'd suggest a game mode literally called "Order 66" that pits Jedi vs Clones like in that one Battlefront 2 mod back in the day.
I really want to see the DC-17m from Republic Commando make an appearance, since they're doing the prequels and all. [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/ydmIeHs.jpg[/thumb] It was like three guns in one, you could use any of them.
Well the DC-17m was in the Clone Wars series as well so it is canon. At least the basic blaster mode is canon, the other models were not shown. But we know interchangeable systems are a thing because of Rogue One
I'd want to see Clone Commandos appear in some form. Maybe high level cosmetic unlock for Clones or something.

[QUOTE=nightlord;52303599]That's the sort of thing that should have its own special class, really.[/QUOTE]bodyguard squad for a republic hero?
[QUOTE=Joazzz;52303767]bodyguard squad for a republic hero?[/QUOTE] I thought of something like that for the Delta Squad. With 38 being the jack of all trades and the "hero", while the rest have their own strengths like 62 with extra ordnance, 40 with extra utility and 07 with sniper bonuses(or something else, since that would probably just be unfun to play against).
[QUOTE=Joazzz;52303767]bodyguard squad for a republic hero?[/QUOTE] No, i was thinking like the Magnaguard, Dark Trooper, Bothan etc classes were in Battlefront 2, special slot-limited classes that you can play after certain requirements are met.
This was in a news post that came out after Celebration [QUOTE]For those of you who want to live out dream battles between Star Wars ' most iconic characters, some modes will support era-crossover play for Heroes, allowing you to set matchups between familiar faces from different time periods. Want to pit Yoda against Kylo Ren? You can do that.[/QUOTE] [url]https://www.ea.com/games/starwars/battlefront/battlefront-2/news/star-wars-battlefront-ii-4-things-celebration-trailer[/url] [editline]3rd June 2017[/editline] Saw this on reddit, an album of Battlefront 3 UI concept art [url]http://imgur.com/gallery/sRvKZ[/url] And a video [video=youtube;9ufKtxI7sCo]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ufKtxI7sCo&feature=youtu.be[/video]
[video]https://youtu.be/S48T-cOG0ks[/video] [editline]6th June 2017[/editline] The live stream page on the BF2 website has a new description Mentions 4 heroes will be shown, and "special characters" Also gives the name of the game mode [QUOTE] Separatist battle droids and clone troopers battle in the streets, with all four of Star Wars Battlefront II's new classes on display, alongside four legendary heroes, prequel-era vehicles, and exciting new Special characters. Can the Republic forces stop the relentless crawl of the massive Multi-Troop Transport as it lumbers toward the palace doors? Tune in live to find out and to learn more about Star Wars Battlefront II's Galactic Assault multiplayer gameplay.[/QUOTE]
Does this mean there can be more than two heroes at once this time around?
It probably means 2 on each side
Maybe I'm alone here, I don't particularly care about the heroes. I just want to be a blank slate stormtrooper and shoot a gun at something else also shooting a gun back at me.
I just want kickass clone trooper customization. Give me all the legion patterns, shoulder pads, and kamas I could want.
Fuck that I just want the game to not be shallow as fuck.
So, Heroes from 'All Eras' will be shown Saturday [video]https://twitter.com/EAStarWars/status/872498488847859712[/video]
That's one good looking Darth Maul. [editline]7th June 2017[/editline] Oh shit, I wonder if there will be a customisation option to make him look like he did in The Clone Wars? Not the Spider version.

maybe too good. The way the skin is shiny around the horns makes them look just as much like a make up appliance piece as they did in the first movie :v:
A dev confirmed N1 Starfighters would be flyable. [editline]7th June 2017[/editline] Looks like that leaked Clone Trooper loadout screen was legit [t]https://i.redd.it/dlh2w8befa2z.jpg[/t] Source: [url]https://twitter.com/dan_mitre/status/872553111642021888[/url] [url]https://www.reddit.com/r/StarWarsBattlefront/comments/6fwc92/zoomed_in_on_first_look_of_offscreen_gameplay/[/url]
I hope the flyers don't all function pretty much the same minus abilities like they did in BF1.
I'm pretty anxious to see the gameplay, trying to wrap my head around the amount of work it would take to make a satisfying game with a decent amount of content from all three eras plus the campaign. The original BF2 was mostly just building off of BF1, but the new BF1 was rushed to hell and back and they're actually trying to change a lot of what people didn't like about it for the sequel while still adding a [I]lot[/I]​ of new content.

Obviously it'll be an improvement over the previous game, but it [I]still[/I] sounds like it won't match up to the originals in terms of content. When the bar is relatively low (a game well over a decade old) just barely getting there isn't going to be good enough. That doesn't mean i won't enjoy it but it's like it should be more than just "almost how the previous game should have been" and that shouldn't have happened in the first place.
They seem to be going for a holographic theme. Maybe that's how they're trying to explain the cross era heroes, these are not real battles but recreations Which is dumb we don't need an explanation, MP isn't canon
So are we likely to get a beta similar to Battlefield 1 after E3?
I wouldn't be surprised.
