Star Wars Battlefront II

Space Mustafar

Go through all the typical stuff one would expect in a space battle

Suddenly new objective: Capture a CIS bomber and land it in the Imperial hangar

Go ahead and do that

When I get back to the hangar, there is a single battle droid running around

He immediately hops into the bomber that I landed and crashes it into the back wall

Victory

Left wondering if that was supposed to happen or if that was just an accident

Why cant modern SW games be as fun as this one? Only fun one ATM is the Squad mod

I still get traumatic flashbacks to that trailer for EA Battlefront 1 where the swedish cuck says something like "The focus of Star Wars has always been on the epic ground battles".

So who had the best capital ships and why was it the Alliance?

Honestly I found Squadrons and Jedi Fallen Order to be really good.

remaster

wait what?
i thought the last collection by ASSpyr flopped hard they abandoned it
is this fanmade??

Could never get into Fallen Order, I just keep comparing it to Jedi outcast/JKA. Its like why play this when I have something better. Story never hooked me either, too much shit between ep 3-4 thats its oversaturated.

I don’t understand why they couldn’t just make battlefield with Star Wars crap and heros. That game would’ve sold like hotcakes

Its just a slab of metal with guns.

That's literally what EA Battlefront 1/2 were though. It's just that lootboxes killed those games. They're worth checking out when they go on sale for $5 imo.

Yes, the ideal form of a spesshep.

It was a reprogrammed battle droid obviously.
Darth Anakin Skywalker Vader is good with droids, remember?

No it wasn’t. Conquest mode didn’t even have vehicles and im pretty sure the first one didn’t even have vehicles.

Faggot contrarian.

EA front 2 definitely had vehicles. I know since I played it. Not sure about the first though.

im pretty sure the first one didnt have vehicles

*im pretty sure the first one didn’t even have conquest mode
I’m tired.

My Battlefront vision:

Huge emphasis on galatic conquest style game but still have a campaign and instant action for those who want that.

Galatic map in a similar fashion to helldivers. Big, dynamic, many maps.
You can pick between clone wars and the rebelion and then pick a side, once you are done you are locked into that one for a month, thats when the galaxy resets.
You pick a world to go and try to take over/defend. All maps will have ground to space battles. And on the map theres some space only battles too.
It's all one huge shared galatic conquest. Battles are 128 v 128.

That's literally what EA Battlefront 1/2 were though

Nah it would be that if it didn't have the shitty power up shit.

Disney really fucked up on ignoring vidya with star wars multimedia. Comics/books alone isn't enough to carry the expanded franchise content, especially after the 2000's era. Closing LucasArts was a tremendous mistake in hindsight. Star Wars desperately needs some type multiplayer game for constant crossover updates, beyond just using fucking fortnite. The jedi games are fine for single player, and squadrons had potential but lacked depth. The xcom clone looks meh too. There's no new RTS, no new multiplayer shooter, the KOTOR remaster is a complete mystery, and lets be real for a second, the david cage game is going to be an exaggerated click adventure like all of his fucking shit games. They really lack a vision for vidya.

Star Wars desperately needs some type multiplayer game

They literally had Nu battlefront 2 and it was pretty decent after all the updates, but then got abandoned by Dice and EA in favor of battlefield

Hey remember that one writer who was pissed that Cal ended up with Merrin and wrote an interquel novel where Merrin ended up with a butch lesbian storm trooper self insert?

the david cage game is going to be an exaggerated click adventure like all of his fucking shit games

I'm not even sure this one is still in development.

No, that's a cube.

Shut it Borg.

B Wing Master Race.

Squadrons shouldn't have been a budget game and should have had a much wider array of ships/customization. The controls were really satisfying, but it was just left to rot like the rest of the early Disney projects outside of rogue one. Now that it failed, Disney will probably be hesitant to push any pure ship combat game.

I kinda wish they did more stuff like droids/clones clones vs empire, mix the eras up. How would they go about it, idk really but there should be more of it.

There's no more ship combat.
You can just get a cheap droid in a junk ship and hyperspace ram everything in sight.
You can buy them in bulk and hyperspace ram an entire fleet out of existence in seconds.

Nu battlefront 2 was pretty decent

Fuck you.

The sequels did more damage to ship autists than any other fan group.

Idk what to tell you, I started playing it when they added the supremacy mode and its pretty fun, game looks and plays great.

looks like lumpy shit next to the republic's proto-star destroyers

It's not terrible like at launch. The star cards are easy to grind out in the pve mode and you can even pick which faction you want to play as so you never ever have to touch the sequel era shit. It's not as good as the OG battlefronts, but it has some cool moments and is always on sale for cheap.

They are canonically better armored and better shielded than Imperial ships.

cards

grind out

Fuck you.

You don't have to grind out anything, with the last update they just blanket unlocked everything for everyone.

Whatever floats your boat, but we are not getting a new multiplayer focused star wars game for a long time unless there's one secretly under wraps. Ship combat is fun too.

you not noticed disney is grossly incompetent?

No? I still have cards that are locked on some classes and theyre not maxed out either, you still have to do some grinding.

Worst starfighter. Even Y-wings are better.

B-Wings can bring down an ISD. Especially when they come with the tri laser.

Oh I'm very much aware, but I would say their vidya department has dropped the ball harder than any other department. At least 4 major canceled games including an Amy Hennig game and a respawn fps. Just gross incompetence.

please be bait

Battlefront 2 was alive and then it just randomly died
Never made sense to me because I loved playing that game, it was really good. All the modes were fun and they just pulled the plug.

They did it to re-allocate resources for battlefield 5, which was having turbulent development and needed more hands on deck. The irony is that battlefront 2 did better than B5 because B5 was still a polished turd with a shit ton of bugs.

buying this.

He wasn't here when they gave out a complete edition for free on epic

lol

I played it a bit and just stopped. Got tired of getting spawn killed by leias beyond draw distance. Game had a major hacker problem.

Game had a major hacker problem.

Still does kek.
They recently made all modes completely unplayable.

on epic

That sucks because V was garbage

They should have tripled down on battlefront 2
It might have had hackers but was still fun

What's the point? All the mods that make the game fun are on the original and it still runs fine on modern hardware.

Worst starfighter

That title belongs to this fella right here.
It's worse than the Tie Fighter even.

While the V-wing looks great, its also a death trap too. The pilot literally wears a fucking pressurized suit because it has no life support systems.

And the autistic lore for this reasoning is because the cockpit sits above the frame? I don’t get the Star Wars angle here

I never liked the design of the Torrent. Every other fighter has some kind of motif or clear purpose in its design. The Torrent looks like a pastiche from someone who was told that starfighters always have folding wings but doesn't understand why.

Sheev had to make cuts in the budget so he could build his surgical reconstructive center

Calamari grow them or something like that. And yeah, they're basically the best you can get at the time.

Calamari grow them or something like that

I thought the reason the MonCal ships looked so lump was because they were modular to an absurd degree.

nu gud

get nu!

stop talking about old!!!

I played all the Star Wars games already, are there any good Star Wars mods/total conversions for non-Star Wars games that I should check out?
I'm playing the Star Wars mod for Sins of a Solar Empire right now

What the fuck was Sienar thinking?

Tie Mauler.jpg - 758x600, 157.36K

Upper management thinking it's a good time to branch out. A story as old as suits.

Scamming investors and then scamming some poor stupid admiral.

By the final patch it was a good game unless you're a turbo autist who needs his ground -> space battles.

It's so sad because battlefront 2 was seeing a huge resurgence. Tons of streamers and old players were coming back. Then they just announced it was getting no more content lmao

They also did the same to BFV and later 2042 when both games also saw an uptick in interest. I unironically have no idea who's managing Dice but they seriously need to be taken out back and shot.

Didn't they just have a bunch of extra tie cockpits and then reused them for these crawler tanks? thats something that was done irl so makes sense

It's past your bedtime kiddo.

kiddo

Says the one defending Nu-Battlefront.

I think it’s some weird humiliation DEI shit because they do this with every game now that gets popular. It’s why I know the new BF will be trash

Trying too hard to fit in, kid.

kid

You already outed yourself. Swallow your pride.

You laugh, but thousands of elite rebel troops got splattered by these things.

Not worth anymore (You)s.

bitch replying

Nu Battlefront is trash and the only people who would ever defend it are buck-broken zoomers who didn't grow up with better games. Everyone knows this. Your recriminations are fooling no one. You're only lying to yourself.

I accept your concession.

finally beat Rogue Leader

got almost no medals because I didn't realize why my targeting percent was always at 0% until the last missions

ouch

13% of the galactic spice production goes directly to sienars design office

Rogue Squadron 2 is the best Star Wars game.

Weird way to spell Republic Commando

alright. How does it land?

What went wrong with Rogue Squadron 3?

Choose your (TIE) fighter!

TIE Phantom my beloved

Oh I pity the poor schmuck who is assigned to a TIE Raptor.

One of the worst designs out of the EU.

Fighter rack. The bottom wing gets slotted in like video game cartridge.

TIE EW sounds comfy

TIE Avenger/Advanced reminds me of the nervous dog

Looks like something you'd slap together in Spore

Wasn't it retconned by the 2nd game?

Yes it was. Merrin got with Cal.

based, I need to play it

How the fuck did you beat the level shooting into the air all the time?

the force was with me

Aggressor.

Sam MAggs wrote the interquel novel.

Why am I not surprised?

Experimental Mk1 is objectively the funniest
I like to imagine Sienar as the equivalent of Kel-Tec but with Sig levels of lobbying power, just a bunch of engineers sitting around all day doing near-fatal amounts of space cocaine and greenlighting any idea they come up with knowing that the Empire is too much of a logistical clusterfuck for them to ever get in trouble

Imagine the ordinance. Puts the Y-wing to shame, really

You know its a silly thing, But it was pretty cool seeing the Naboo Starfighter and the Jedi Starfighter share hanger space with alliance fighters in Rogue Squadron 3.

What are some unironically good designs from the Disney Era?

Yes Exile?

I dig the Razor Crest, it's a little bland but still feels like a decent spiritual successor to Slave I (sorry, "Boba Fett's Starship")

I genuinely like the Starhawk battleship and the new Cruiser seen in the Ahsoka show. Personally I think if Imperial Ships are daggers, Republic ships should be shields.

just go play fucking hell divers or make this a seperate multiplayer mode. I want a seperate single player Galactic Conquest. something that contextualizes the playlist of maps for instant action with its strategic layer just like the old one. Include the mechanic for recruiting and moving reinforcements and supplies around from the PSP games and recruiting generals for extra dynamic elements and strategy.

But no, we need an online theme park that will be shut down when Disney and EA go bankrupt after their c suite is arrested for cracking toddlers heads open and eating their pineal glands to stay youthful instead instead.

nobody ever explained why only the space squids should have any available capital ships

y-wing is slow flying coffin

and then blame "le gamers"
