How fast did blaster shots travel in the earlier games? Did you have to significantly lead on enemies running across your view in order to hit them, more than with real bullets in Battlefield games?

I don't remember what it was called, but that level in battlefront 2 where you get to play as all the heroes on tatooine was bitchin' Shame this game is being made by dice, I wish they had called it Star Wars Battlefield instead of trying to crib off the batllefront games.

You do realize that the first Battlefront was a copy of Battlefield 1942, right? Frostbite is an amazing engine and Battlefield 3 and 4(apart from the fuckups at launch) were great games. I have no reason to doubt DICE.

dice gets too much hate. Their games are pretty drat good and I can't even think of another developer that'd make a better massive online FPS like this

I'm laughing super hard at the people that think A) the prequels will be in the base game and B) that if they get added they wont be DLC. Have you not been playing games for the past 8 years?

Let's face it - this is going to end up being a bad movie tie-in game with some above average graphics and poo poo gameplay.

Noctis Horrendae posted:I hope so, pal. I hope so. Yeah. When was the last time Dice did decent bots? Skirmish is what kept me coming back to Battlefront 2 for years. Hell, the map making community has made poo poo with BF2 that blows the modern day Battlefields out of the water when it comes to scale. You haven't played a game in this genre until some dude comes up with a way to get 200+ soldiers on a huge map. Or actually gotten to try space maps with huge fleets duking it out. Some of the poo poo in BF2's mod scene is just insane and it goes a long way to show how forward thinking the devs were in making their game as adaptable and stable as possible. If it lacks skirmish though? Along with decent bots? Well poo poo, you can throw this game out the window. It's not even Battlefront. It's just trying to cash in on the brand name and nostalgia. mr.capps posted:There is only one era, no space battles, and the AT-ATs are on rails. Signs point to they might be loving this one up. And this is assuming they can even get the rest of the series trademarks in properly. Which at the moment they're not even bothering with. I can't help but feel that this thing is going to be a train wreck of disappointment and predatory nostalgia. Archonex fucked around with this message at 02:41 on Apr 20, 2015 |

My post was meant to be sarcastic. I guess that's on me for making it seem like I was joining the goony doom and gloom circle jerk. I guess you guys would just rather the game not be made and they leave your precious memories alone? The guy who said he wouldn't buy it if AT-ATs were on rails made me laugh out loud.

Well, I guess this thread is as good as any place to ask: What are some good BF2 custom maps? I know I can go by "Most Downloaded" ranks off of an old map site, but I wanted to get some personal opinions. I'm imagining two outcomes for this game: 1) The game is good, in which case hey cool, a good game, or 2) Everyone who got a renewed interest in Battlefront but are disappointed with BF3 end up playing BF2 instead, much like how tons of people bought Simcity 4 after 2k13 was a total bust. So it's a win-win either way!

And get it clipped on a bush or a mailbox or something so it flips up in to the air and flies across the map. edit: also I think they verified no skirmish, but there will be these 'mission' things, which will have bots (co-op or single player must have bots, otherwise who are the bad guys, right?), so that should be a compromise everyone will be happy with.

Abysswalker posted:What the gently caress are you talking about, dude You talking about Battlefront 1 or 2? Because 2's were actually somewhat decent for the times. The problem is how well they function is dependent on the structure of the map. You can see this on modded maps where the mod maker didn't take into account how the AI works. You end result is you get spectacular meat grinders or the bots just sperg out and run into walls constantly. Put them on a map like that loving corvette with Leia and Vader though and suddenly they turn into flanking nightmares. But yeah, gently caress the people who don't want bots. Skirmish supremacy. All the haters can suck my vibroblade. Archonex fucked around with this message at 18:50 on Apr 20, 2015 |

Battlefield 2 and 2142 never had a single player. All it had were bots that you could play with on any map to learn the game. I don't mind Battlefront not having a campaign, especially after the yawn inducing campaigns of BF3 and BF4.

I think people wanted a skirmish mode, which is just as you described, not so much a full fledged campaign/story mode. I think skirmish mode was in both Battlefront games thus far, but I could be wrong. Hopefully the missions thing will be enough to satisfy single players.

Hopper posted:Co-Optimus article It sounds like BF3 coop missions, which weren't very good with zero replay value. Battlefront had instant action and a mission map with minor strategy elements which was adequate for battlefield star wars. Carefully crafted sounds like 'linear and overly scripted to remove any meaningful element of emergent gameplay'
