But how will Fighter Squadron fit in there? Or will they make that 20v20 as well?

I don't see how it would be any different with the other big maps?

 

[Ozorov]

I don't see how it would be any different with the other big maps?

I think he means if they're sticking with the rotation-playlist. If some modes are 20v20 and Squadron is not. Will some players on the server go to another server if that rotations happens or what?

Since all 40 players can't continue onto Squadron.

 

[Toa TAK]

Fuck the rotation playlist for the individual DLC.

I want them integrated into the base damn it.

 

[Dantooine]

They should make a separate playlist for season pass holders. Can't wait for the fighter squadron update...

 

[PintSizedSlasher]

They really painted themselves in a corner with these playlists. Really hope they throw it overboard and figure out something else.

Yeah, it will be interesting to see on Friday

I just hope the stream is not the same time the Sony press conference was

Yeah that would suck big time. I think the Outer Rim-stream started 18-19 CEST.

Yes and yes.

The outer rim stream went on too long I feel.

 

[Ozorov]

Yes and yes.

The outer rim stream went on too long I feel.

Yes it was faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar too long. They've said they will have a shorter one this time. I hope for like 1 hour, maybe 2 max.

 

[Palpable]

Possibly a new blaster and what Lando might use?

Kinda looks like what they reworked into the X-8 Night Sniper from the reveal page:

It's not exactly the same, but there are definitely some similarities.

 

[Darth Smurf X]

X-Wing VR may get me to buy the headset. Even if it is one mission... imagine what they could do for Battlefront 2. VR Fighter Squadron.

Place your bets - trailer today or not until live stream tomorrow?

Until stream tomorrow

 

[Ozorov]

Today in what timezone?

 

[MADGAME]

Until stream tomorrow

I think I agree, although I hope we get at least something in the form of news today.

Today in what timezone?

Don't try to be sneaky!

I don't think we'll get any trailer etc today. I just hope we get one of these:

So I can enter full hype mode.

None of the above.

Sometime next week when Bespin dlc launches.

 

[Ozorov]

None of the above.

Sometime next week when Bespin dlc launches.

They've already announced a gameplay stream for tomorrow.

 

[Alkastelca]

They've already announced a gameplay stream for tomorrow.

But not the trailer : )


I just want to know more about offline content. They promised this spring and it's pretty much summer already.

Yes give us this today!

Boooooo

These streams are fucking pointless. I hate this livestreaming culture we have now. Just put out a gameplay trailer and a blog post with the maps, weapons, Star cards, and heroes and call it and fucking day.

You dont have to watch it. You will get your blog post and trailer.

 

[ElzarTheBam]

Stream goes live tomorrow as it did last time 10am PDT/5pm GMT

Nice. They are saying invincibility bug will be fixed in Bespin patch. Not sure if we knew that already.

 

[MADGAME]

Trailer is out!!!!

Royal Guards wooooohoooooo

 

[Nemic77]

Looks great! Cloud Car vs Cloud Car?

That looks fucking amazing. The carbonite chamber looks perfect.

 

[Ozorov]

Five new maps, nice

 

[ElzarTheBam]

Really...really makes the first map pack look underwhelming

 

[Ozorov]

New game mode is called sabotage

 

[5taquitos]

New game mode is called sabotage

Looks like an all heroes at once mode?

Really...really makes the first map pack look underwhelming

Yeah, this is parsecs past Outer Rim

 

[MADGAME]

New game mode is called sabotage

We Beastie Boys'ing it now

Scout Binos look like a team version of scan pulse.

 

[5taquitos]

I don't know if it's just for style, but the trailer showed Lando walking with the Falcon flying in the background, so Hero ships in the big mode?

Also, stun grenades and Dengar maybe has sticky grenades?

Please don't toy with my emotions.

Maybe in the new mode?
Or just a thing for the trailer...

 

[MADGAME]

Shock grenade sounds annoying to get hit with.


Royal Guards are new spawns for Palpatine and Shock Trooper is now an Imperial skin

https://twitter.com/phatseejay/status/743493086513401864

 

[PintSizedSlasher]

So, two new imperial and two new rebel skins?

Edit: ok, imperial guards are spawns. Cool I guess.
Bespin guards spawns for Lando then?

 

[MADGAME]

The X8 Sniper Pistol description says it is "...a blater pistol with decent damage, cooling power, and range. It stands out due to its enhanced scope with heat vision, capable of revealing humanoids in most weather and times of day.

I wonder if this indicates we will get weather effects in Bespin or a future update.

Rain would be fantastic

 

[MADGAME]

Looks like there are 2 Cloud Car color schemes. Imps probably get the blue/white.

Rain would be fantastic

I agree. Or fog, like on Dagobah

 

[Palpable]

Wow, that looks great. Any guesses as to what each new hero has as specials? Looked like Lando has his own version of Han's lucky shot.

That shock grenade is going to piss me off.

 

[Risgroo]

Looks fantastic! Let's hope we get more than one large map...

Looks like Dengar has some sticky-grenade-thing
