We don't know all the battles from the latter two, so let's explore them in this. _________________ EUCantina.net Founder. Forum Admin. New to the forums? Introduce yourself in the Spaceport!

That sucked. You aren't imagining it. That being said with the upgrade that increases your weapon power I found that for pretty much all enemies except engineers the regular sniper is a one hit kill with a torso shot. This is also one case where I found the pistol upgrade actually beneficial because I use that when I need to headshot someone (ex. to snipe a turret gunner). That way I avoid getting the sniper rifle upgrade. Quote: And transports pawn! I love flying around in those big slow tanks! They are the marauders of the battlefield. See I don't have a problem with that, except that one side has a trans that has torps and the other gets cluster missiles. It makes it unbalanced because one side has a trans that can basically get space superiority on its own with a good crew but the other side doesn't have that advantage because their trans fires the less effective torps (in terms of fighter combat). I have no problem if it is an excelent bomber (which the torp equipped trans are certainly good at), but the transports aren't supposed to be better at air superiority than the fighter-interceptors. I confess I have a bias against transports since I fly the fighter-interceptors most often in the game. I was always kinda miffed that the some transports get the cluster missiles, but also seem to have a faster reload rate than the fighter-interceptors. Starfighters aside I always wondered whether it was just me or was the jet trooper's emp launcher less effective than the heavy trooper's missile launcher in BF II? _________________

Another thing they could work on would be the big walkers. Perhaps multiple camera viewpoints for when your driving them, and a little better mechanics. They always feel a little too slow and awkward. Not quite the walking towers of destruction you might envision them as. _________________

Taking a gunship, establishing a commando force, and then going into the enemy ship is timeless fun. _________________ EUCantina.net Founder. Forum Admin. New to the forums?

Aush Administrator Joined: 12 Nov 2007 Posts: 980 Location: Midwest, USA I would love to see Yuuzhan Vong battles, but since Lucasfilm has shown they like to mess with continuity, I think it's best to explore the more obscure wars like Mandalorian and Jedi Civil War, since those are also based off a very successful game _________________ "Changes are nice--but so is continuity!"

Iron Fist EUC Staff Joined: 26 Apr 2008 Posts: 150 Location: United States of America Don't worry Autobon....I'm having trouble too... That footage looks amazing, a perfect refinement of Battlefront 2. Expansive battles, unique and more complex ship designs (much better than BF2's)...it's all there. I just hope whoever picks up it's development doesn't start over. _________________ Latest EUC Video Game Review: Knights of the Old REpublic

Mara Jade Skywalker Master Joined: 15 Feb 2008 Posts: 5359 Location: Beyond Shadows Look on the main page. On second thought, here you go: Battlefront 3 Footage Now, we do realize it could be faked or whatever, but I'm certainly hoping otherwise. Doesn't it look absolutely amazing?! I was completely captivated. Here's to the hope of legitimate footage! _________________ "It's not about the legacy you leave, it's about the life you live." ~Mara Jade Skywalker

Autobon Master Joined: 17 Apr 2008 Posts: 751 Location: Seattle, Washington I really dont think that was faked. First off, it went on forever, and faked things usually dont last that long. Plus, these devs lost their job, and I think they just want everyone to see what it could have been like...... and it makes me cry a little...... Rebellion had better not can any of the ideas. I hope they just fix up any bugs or whatever, and ship it out. Oh and maybe fix the running animation it looked a tad bit ridiculous. But seriously... I really REALLY hope Rebellion doesnt change anything (again, apart from the running)

Salaris Vorn Moderator Joined: 02 Feb 2008 Posts: 2039 Location: New York, USA Thanks Mara! The footage does look awesome! I especially liked the whole additions they seemed to have made with space combat. The massive size was just amazing. It would have been nice if we could have seen more of the interior of the Acclamator though (think it was an Acclamator), just to see if they expanded the boarding enemy ships idea from BF II. I agree with Autobon. The only other possibility (other than it being legit) that I could think of is that being a third party mod, but I can't really see anyone putting that much effort in just to make a hoax. My biggest concern with such massive size would be the number of bugs and glitches that would be almost inevitable. If the game didn't get proper support from LA it could very well end up being the worst experience ever because of glitches. _________________

Which really sucks because why would they just let go of that amazing game. My guess? They switched focus to making The Old Republic. They know they have rapid KOTOR fans who have wanted a KOTOR III since 60 seconds after watching the end scene of KOTOR II and therefore that means massive profit. Battlefront fans (likely also KOTOR fans in many cases) will be able to wait since they have had 2 battlefronts within a few years plus a PSP exclusive. So those fans won't be as rabid and eager to fork over the cash. _________________
