After the Rogue One trailer, hopefully Rebel players will start equipping Ion Torpedo in WA.

So they're never going to the buff the AT-ST's health or give it some defensive abilities are they? It's practically impossible to stay alive for more than a minute half the time in Supremacy if you're against a decent team. Don't even bother if there's an A-Wing around.

 

[Gravemind IV]

And this is why I hate bacta bomb (the way it's used as opposed to a 'support' tool).
If the guy in the second video hadn't been fucking oblivious, I would have been dead despite pumping a shit ton of shots into somebody with a close range beast weapon.

So I am seeing yellow hero tokens which damage me? I am guessing it's the hero token for the other side since the enemy Lando was camping ours and I got shock trapped twice.

 

[Vic_Viper]

Bought this game at launch on PC and still have yet to finish downloading after the initial playable state mid DL. How is the community currently, are there ppl still playing pretty regularly? Not having a single player really turned me off but I'm starting to finish downloading tonight.

Any sales for the DLC yet?

Lando can set traps, which look like hero tokens.

Done with this game until death star comes out. It feels so utterly shit at the moment. It's non stop BS all the time, from bacta bomb and berserker morons to invincible partner spawning to speederbike ramming.

Fuck, this game played 10 times better a few months back.

 

[5taquitos]

Disruption should have been a Lando-only ability.

Bacta bomb was a mistake, it's nothing but trash.

I've played three times since the Bespin-DLC came out. I hope Death Star will do some good shiet.

Yep. I'm also having a break from the game. Dying Light severely has it's hooks in me and I'm still in doubt if I should get No Man's Sky.
Anyone in here playing NMS? Thoughts? Impressions?

I'm absolutely in love, but it's definitely not for everyone. Best to be played while chilling.

Don't listen to the blind haters, but don't go in assuming it will be the best thing ever. It's definitely a bit shallow and has some rough edges.

Taking off from a planet, heading into space, finding another planet... That part is sublime imo. Some of the vistas you'll come across are absolutely amazing.

OT: I'm pretty much out for now too, I have NMS and Overwatch taking all my gaming time, and I still need to finish Uncharted 4 and Doom. I'll be back for Death Star.

This is where I am as well.

Thanks. Probably going to get it, from what I've seen and read it should be right up my alley. And Battlefront made me immune to blind haters


Also: R.I.P. R2D2 :-(

 

[MMarston]

Apparently the particular power source my TV and gaming set up was plugged into short-circuited today so I guess I'm taking a break now too lol


But yeah, I'll be back for Death Star.

 

[lawnchair]

might play NMS "final" edition when it comes out someday..

 

[lawnchair]

is it me or does nien nunb sometimes say "enemy in underpant" in a kinda asian accent

has this been discussed

No one discusses anything at this point. It appears everyone is exhausted with the game for the time being.

which is a shame, because the ridiculous unlock-chasing has just recently taken a hold of me, i'm finally hitting my stride!

You'll get some BTS videos with sub-second snippets of gameplay.

 

[lawnchair]

hopefully there will be some awesome dudes playing these awesome EA games

 

[SpyGuy239]

Is this battlefront rouge one VR mission ps4 only? That blows if so. I wanna play it on PC once I get a VR module instead of buying battlefront again on my ps4

 

[Gravemind IV]

So, no Battlefront at the EA stream? Hm. Actually expected Death Star gameplay despite Bossk and Chewie not being playable.

 

[MrDaravon]

Ha, so I'm finally getting around to uploading all of my Battlefront clips to youtube (like 40 total or something) and on at least one it's already gotten hit with a copyright claim from SME because of an Episode V music track. It's not a strike or anything, it stays up on youtube but isn't viewable in "just" 242 countries, but still funny.

The worst parts are the constant false positives Youtube dishes out.

 

[Vic_Viper]

Origin has the season pass on sale for $37.99. Picked it up along with Hardline deluxe edition for $7.50.

Can't wait to check out the Death Star stuff

 

[lawnchair]

make sure to get the bacta bomb ASAP

 

[MrDaravon]

I cannot believe that I cannot get a tow cable kill on an AT-AT for this fucking trophy after literally months of trying. Unbelievable. I play mostly WA too. Tying a trophy to something at best 2 out of 20 people can TRY to get every ~25 minutes is fucking ridiculous. I'm probably legit going to get 100% diorama and 100% Companion app completion before I get this now -_-. I'm down to my last 3 Challenges and last 3 Accomplishments, although I don't know how in the fuck you legit get Blast Master tbh.

Also I am getting absolutely goddamn nowhere getting Cargo Defender Streak, because it requires you to kill someone that has actually picked the Cargo up. Every single match either we steamroll the other team, and/or if I literally try to let the other team capture the Cargo so I can kill them right after it never works out. Most I've been able to get is 3.

For the tow cable trophy, camp the speeder spawns on Tatooine during the last phase. Once you get a speeder, circle Jabba's palace off-map until the walkers are vulnerable. Imperials don't get fighters in this phase, so no one should be able to touch you. Last time I did this, I took down both walkers myself,

Both post and the press release.

Right, this is more or less my strategy, problem is in any given match it's a toss-up between getting shot down immediately or my team is getting stomped and time runs out before I can get it off (which I have been seconds away from numerous times). I seem to just have really shitty luck with this for whatever reason.

 

[ElzarTheBam]

I think we'll be alright going forwards

The new flavour seems to be No Man's Sky

 

[PintSizedSlasher]

New mode sounds good.

NOW THEY WILL SUFFER AS WE DID

This pack was essentially our last chance to get B-Wings and TIE Bombers. :-(

Oh well.

a little sad about that myself.

also sad that when this comes out zero people will be playing bespin maps anymore. :\

Haha

 

[Toa TAK]

I keep forgetting NMS is out.

 

[MADGAME]

I know, sucks big time. Looking forward to this pack, in a way I feel it is the final one. R1 expansion is still being mentally tuned out.

 

[Dantooine]

New mode sounds great, shame they only just thought of it - would've been great on Bespin/Outer Rim. Hopefully this (along with everything else) makes it's way to Skirmish.

~R2D2 playable in Death Star expansion
