Darth Vader, Boba Fett, Jedi, Millennium Falcon Playable in Battlefront!

Soon, so very soon, The Empire will remind this pitiful Rebellion what War is all about.

Oh man that was cool. My heart skipped a beat when I heard the "Y-Wings Inbound." That was seriously awesome.


SQUEE!!! Ahem...Er Why yes it looks quite good.


Am I alone in thinking this looks waaaaay better t han the new movie?

That's because the movie trailers have only been teaser trailers.
Just enough to make us giddy with anticipation.
The real trailer will probably come out in July or August.

I liked the brief appearance of Darth Vader the best.


I heard somewhere that the trailers will be released for Avengers movie.

Episode 1 of Developers Diary.


I'm a little afraid that this will just be a re-skinned Battle Field. I enjoyed the offline play and the lack of custom characters. I like having set load outs and not requiring online play... but with the new gen... I think I'm going to be disappointed.

Between this and Fallout 4, November is going to be an expensive month.

In EA America as well.

Only the fighters are attacking, I wonder what those Star Destroyers are waiting for.


Orbital bombardment judging by the in game footage :)

Dark Archive

Yeah they are!

I figured it was. I just enjoyed watching the orbital bombardment too much to avoid mentioning it :)

Battlefront gameplay from Alpha test. BOOM.

A Wing vs Dark Lord

Winter assault map is horribly one sided.

As well it should be.

The shield will be down in moments. You may start your landing.

Sovereign Court

What's the point of playing as rebels then?

Liberty's Edge

I take it you've never played OGRE.

Dear Hama I have asked myself that question since 1977. Somebody has to be the deluded bad guys I guess.

Screen shots from Battlefront.

Battlefront will have no dedicated chat system in place.

Nope

Liberty's Edge

You should.

You run a scenario like Hoth by using victory conditions and points.

In essence, the Alliance wins if all the transports and heroes escape. The Empire wins if they don't.

Whether or not DICE(?) knows how or even to do this is another question entirely.

Dunno. They should have still made it balanced so that both scenarios are equally viable if two teams of roughly on par players face off. Whenever I log in as a rebel, we get SLAUGHTERED. And when I play as Empire, we take them apart with absolutely no problem.

I'll try OGRE.

Liberty's Edge

Then it wouldn't be the Battle of Hoth.

Sovereign Court

Yeah, that's why I no longer play that map. It's not interesting as multiplayer.

The Exchange

How is it looking? I have been waiting for it to come out and holding off on the beta....scared it's not gonna be good. I've had too many disappointments on the Xbox One lately and afraid that this is gonna be one also...

Liberty's Edge

That's why you should have bought a PS4. ;)

It's a very good Battlefield 4 with a Star Wars skin. That's that.

Which tells me DICE (it's DICE, right?) doesn't know how to write an asymetical scenario.

OGRE is a tabletop war game where, in the default scenarios, one player plays a mixed arms force of tanks, hovercraft, power armored infantry and artillery pieces and the other plays a tank.

A really big tank.

A really, really big tank. The titular OGRE.

The scenario is heavily stacked in the OGRE's favor. The defense CAN win, and a very good player can do so regularly. The assumption is that the OGRE will win almost all of the time though. That's where victory scoring comes in. The usual competitive format is to play the scenario twice, one as the defender and once as the OGRE and then compare scores.

In the Battle of Hoth, the Rebels will almost certainly loose.

The issue is how they loose.

So, say, the Empire gets 10 points for blowing up shield generator, and five points for every transport that they capture, and another 10 for killing, say, half of the Alliance's heroes (Han, Leia, Chewie, Luke, Wedge) and another 10 for them all.

Then the Alliance gets say 5 for every transport that escapes, 10 for every AT-AT they take out via trip line or high-speed surgery, and 20 for taking out Vader.

Or whatever, numbers are made up of the cuff and without serious though, but it gives you an idea.

The point is that it's an asymmetric battle and normal king of the hill or whatever scoring does not work. The minimum for it to be workable is making both teams play it twice on opposite sides to get fair comparison.

Figures. I knew that there was something wrong with it.

It can be balanced if the Rebels have guys who have balls of steel.

That's not balance. Balance is when both sides have equal chance of fulfilling their objective going in.

No, it's 100% pure badassery.

You meant PC right? :)

Ogre is a great game. Just tell them to read Keith Laumer's Bolo books. In one the Bolo is referred to as a "troll" by post apocalyptic humans. Hence the game "Ogre".

Liberty's Edge

While the Bolo's are part of the inspiration, OGREs are most emphatically not Bolos. There's a few articles detailing Jackson's problems with them floating around.

Besides, the most dangerous thing in Laumer's books is a rogue member of the CDT. ;)


This is looking amazing!

Watch the clip, in every single Iconic Match Up, I would not put a single sabacc card chip on the Rebels.

It is unavoidable. We will witness the destruction of this so called Alliance, and the end of this insignificant Rebellion.

Liberty's Edge

Loved Bobba Fett's line "That's not happening again " or something like that.


Luke actually learned how to deflect force lightning with his lightsaber!?

This does look fun.

How did that guy get 5 million followers?!
