Can't wait to get sliced like hot butter

Already had this book pre-ordered, but I'm even more hyped for it now- gorgeous new cover.

Did anyone read the last Battlefront book? Was it worth tracking down?

It's easily one of y favorite Star Wars books. I enjoyed it thoroughly.

 

[tim1138]

Here's hoping it has offline splitscreen instant action like the original Battlefront 2.

 

[Kinyou]

Playing as a Empire person is cool. Better not turn good I wanna be bad. Games need more story arcs when you're an evil person and it's not a choice based game.

I wouldn't get my hopes up, they're already talking about "redemption"

I just hope the campaign is more immersive than what they did in BF1. Those missions felt more like mp matches with bots.

 

[Shirke]

I wonder if they'll go all out on the elite Imperials and give us crazy stuff like the SCAR Squadron.

 

[ScriptedReality]

So, looks like people guessed right about the lead being Janina Gavankar

Ain't no way her eyes are actually that beautiful. I gotta Google her.

 

[Lunafreya Nox Fleuret]

Space battles= sold.

 

[Alienous]

Holy shit, looks like the game that the first Battlefront should have been. Hyped.

I don't think there's a sequel I can't say that about.

 

[Pattycakes]

It's almost like don't realize the 2005 Battlefront 2 exists and yet somehow have managed to copy it.

I mean I would have loved just a straight port of 2005 Battlefront 2 to Frostbite with modern graphics too

 

[Kabanossi]

No VR mode? The VR mission in the first Battlefront was awesome. Would be cool to see some more of that.

 

[SmackAttack]

Slave 1 in there.

Jango confirmed?

Well, you did play as him on that map in the original Battlefront II so I'd assume yes.

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

Solid trailer and interesting story angle.
I didn't care much for the first one but if I hear the campaign is good I might give this a shot. Will wait for reviews though.

 

[Hidden One]

Show me some multiplayer gameplay

 

[clarkision]

It's almost like don't realize the 2005 Battlefront 2 exists and yet somehow have managed to copy it.

Or like they copied it and are trying to act like they didn't by ignoring the original.

 

[SargerusBR]

SHIP CLASSES? OH SHIT

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Lmao the YT comments went to shit immediately.

living for the salt tbh

 

[Stiler]

Really really hope they've revamped the combat mechanics and things.

I wish the pickups weren't so random/arcadey and "run down " while you are using them. If you get to play as Luke/Vader you should play until you die, not have some stupid timer counting down that makes you nervous/anxious, such a stupid mechanic imo.

Looking forward to the gameplay trailers.

 

[KZXcellent]

Okay I'm beyond sold on this. They're saying ALL the right things. Holy shit.

 

[Drayco21]

Sad haven't heard anything about it coming to the Switch yet. I'd love to play this on the go. Figure Switch could run the game decently at least.

I would be shocked to see this running on the Switch, honestly.

 

[The Janitor]

People were saying the same thing for the first Battlefront then BF delivered...

That's what people said about the first Battlefront.

Pretty sure that reveal was PC. I'm not saying it's not ingame, I'm just saying it's not PS4. The IQ is too sharp.

 

[Gravemind IV]

Goddamn, this looks good.

 

[Kid Heart]

Hero ships? Heck yeah! Slave 1 and the Jedi Starfighter confirmed!

 

[jbug617]

FFS really?

yes according to the site

 

[Mr. Smiley]

I wouldn't get my hopes up, they're already talking about "redemption"

Inevitable, but hopefully that redemption arc isn't drawn out.

 

[poodaddy]

Looks incredible. Here's hoping they actually include splitscreen co-op on PC this time. If not, I'll probably just get it on Scorpio. Either way.....hyped.

 

[Pachimari]

So playing on Kamino does that mean we get to play clone troopers? Kamino was present in Episode II?

 

[Jake2by4]

Wanna see some gameplay

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Damn, they saving gameplay for E3.

 

[Tovarisc]

Have they yet addressed skill depth issue that BFront 1 had?

 

[N7.Angel]

We can ride tauntauns, my life is now complete !! Can't wait for this summer beta ( hope its this summer )

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Your gonna play as the bad guys? Interesting.

 

[CosmicRomancer]

Her eyes are like those of kittens.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

That's what people said about the first Battlefront.

ehhhhhh

the final game didn't reach that initial widescreen reveal trailer

 

[Principate]

Most he youtube comments are just "where is clone wars" repeated a thousand times.

 

[XAL]

Obi Wan's Jedi Starfighter

*gasm*

 

[PeskyToaster]

Wow the features they talked about are a huge improvement. Just checkin off my list of issues I had with the first game.

 

[SRTtoZ]

Looks good but so did the first until I bought it and lost interest 10 hours later.

 

[eshwaaz]

I just hope the campaign is more immersive than what they did in BF1. Those missions felt more like mp matches with bots.

Same. The fact that DICE is not developing the campaign gives me hope.

 

[evi]

Have they yet addressed skill depth issue that BFront 1 had?

Nothing concrete, but they said they wanted to add more depth, so here's hoping.

 

[Drewfonse]

Looks great, but I'll wait for E3 gameplay to convince me

 

[Metalmarc]

yes according to the site

Offline coop, that means bot play right? Omg whooooo

 

[gundamkyoukai]

trailer looks nice .
Might give this one a try .

 

[FTF]

Yup, that looks awesome.

 

[RedAssedApe]

EA Access and Origin Access starts 11/9.

Split Screen Coop is only on PS4 and XB1.

FFS really?

as opposed to what other platforms? people play splitscreen on pc?

 

[Plum]

Have they confirmed the removal of the whole token system? That was the absolute worst part of the first game and it's the one thing I think should be fixed before anything else.

 

[Boke1879]

Looks good but so did the first until I bought it and lost interest 10 hours later.

I mean content wise alone this is blowing the first out of the water. and I loved the first game.

 

[Thanati]

Yup, I can't wait. Looks great!

 

[MilkyJoe]

Is Skirmish back??

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

pls be good

hope for some meaty SP and Coop don't really care for the rest
