DarkLord60 Posted December 3, 2003 Posted December 3, 2003 Originally posted by Zaknafein i think darklord is talking about Galactic Conquest, the Star Wars themed mod for BF1942 lets just say in my view, they still have a lot of work to do, and it wasnt worth all the hype for that first alpha...but what can i say, it was just their first alpha and stuff, so its not supposed to be perfect, but this one just didnt seem very fun... Indeed I was thank you.
jp-30 Posted December 3, 2003 Posted December 3, 2003 I hope there are NO jedi in the game. Too unbalanced. There should be enough fun things to do and classes to play as without having your gun force-pulled off you or some clown with force speed to contend with. It has Prequel and Original Trilogy armies and maps - great news! My hope in maps is for a Death Star map where you can do a stealth type objective based raid similar to what we saw from Luke, Leia, Chewie, Han & Ben in A New Hope! (ie. Turn off Tractor Beam, Rescue Princess, and Escape on your ship, while being hunted down by imperials.)
Pie™ Posted December 3, 2003 Posted December 3, 2003 OMG i've been coming up for ideas for this kina game inside my sick little head for months now! it's gonna become reality!!! gotta start saving money
Crazy_dog no.3 Posted December 3, 2003 Posted December 3, 2003 It better be like Battlefield (play SP w/ bots) becuase I don't play online (or I do, but very rarely).

jokemaster Posted December 3, 2003 Posted December 3, 2003 Originally posted by leXX First Republic Commando, and now THIS! I think I'm in heaven. My dear lexx, if you were in heaven.......... HALF LIFE 2 WOULD'VE ALREADY BEEN RELEASED. You are far toooo good a woman to get JUST two star wars games you've dreamed about. Sorry, I'm stilll bitter.
Swat Posted December 4, 2003 Posted December 4, 2003 Got some new info It's being developed by Pandemic Studios. It handles Full Spectrum Warrior as well, which is a very good game. Looks like Battlefront is in good hands!

You are far toooo good a woman to get JUST two star wars games you've dreamed about. Sorry, I'm stilll bitter. Actually, I have to agree there, and I'm bitter as hell. We should have been playing Half-Life 2 for two months already! Still, two great Star Wars games on the horizon brings some comfort.
DarkLord60 Posted December 5, 2003 Posted December 5, 2003 This game won't have a monthly charge will it?
RoxStar Posted December 5, 2003 Posted December 5, 2003 I think the monthly charge will only apply to the Xbox Live Service.
Neverhoodian Posted December 5, 2003 Posted December 5, 2003 This looks promising. I've never played BF 1942, though, so I have no idea what it's going to be like. The choice of classic trilogy and prequel trilogy sounds great. Here's hoping that the game will be good!

Miko Reglia Posted December 8, 2003 Posted December 8, 2003 well i hope its going to turn out good, cause i love Battlefield 1942!
Ob_1 ken_OB Posted December 13, 2003 Posted December 13, 2003 cool, I finally found this thread, now I am here I dont want to leave. I have also read that battles will all be based on not only the battles taking place in teh original trioligy but the prequel one as well. The only thing I am worried about is the flying vehicles, I hope they dont make them way smaller than they should be like in some games and only able to fly a few feet off the ground. Does anyone know how it is gunna work?
toms Posted December 15, 2003 Posted December 15, 2003 I would be excited about this, if i hadn't just been reading the AWEFUL reviews that T3: War of the Machines has been getting. T3:WotM is basically exactly what SW:BF is, a movie licsenced BF1942 clone, and it is apparently terrible. I was looking forward to it as well, as it seemed like a great setting for a wargame, and i always loved Terminator: Skynet which had some really cool post appocalyptic map settings for it's multiplayer. I hope the SW:BF developers take note and don't just produce some models and a hoth map.
ExcelsioN Posted December 15, 2003 Posted December 15, 2003 Originally posted by DarkLord60 Well that mod for battlefield 1942 wont be happy all the hard work they put into it and they will already have one out. I know what you mean. This game sounds cool. Really cool. Its wierd coincidence , but that other Vietnam mod, Eve of Destruction seems to have an official game after it. Whats next? A Desert Combat Battlefield game?
jp-30 Posted December 15, 2003 Posted December 15, 2003 There's a bunch more info and more of those crazy blurred screenshots in the Playstation Magazine article which you can see here; Star Wars Battlefront Magazine Scan

eastcoast2895 Posted January 13, 2004 Author Posted January 13, 2004 just wanted to say that there is a preview at gamespy. http://www.gamespy.com/previews/january04/swbattlefront/ good information like a couple of character types and possible unlockable characters like luke and darth vader.

Unlockable characters? What the ?!? How is it going to be like BF1942 if it has unlockable characters? Maybe if they're unlockable classes. Oh, and LEC have just confirmed it. (see JK.net)
Pie™ Posted January 14, 2004 Posted January 14, 2004 I think the perfect way they could ruin this game would be to put Jedi as a class... *shiver*
eastcoast2895 Posted January 14, 2004 Author Posted January 14, 2004 there probably is a way to include the jedi class, but it probably is the only way and any other would turn this into an expanded jedi academy. so i also hope for no jedi or an implementation that works. of course this game comes out near winter so right now i just want more screenshots. just check out gamespy and saw an interview about battlefront. they said there will be no "traditional jedi class" but their will be jedi, lightsabers, and force powers. also they said the unlockable characters like luke and darth vader are a.i. controlled.
ExcelsioN Posted January 14, 2004 Posted January 14, 2004 No they can't add sabers!! If they do people will cheat to unlock the characters, and then we'll end up with the Luke Skywalkers vs. the Darth Vaders battles.
