Star Wars Battlefront Wishlist

good job, you see an opportunity (the devs visiting the forums) and you seize it. good job.

 

I really hope damage control is really well done. thats important. and what do you do if you run out of ammo? can you use fists? or what?

[Lt. Havoc]

fists would be great. I can imagine reading that kill message. Or better yet, sneaking up on that sniper picking off your mates and beating him to death... brutal. I can hear the robotic servo and clunk sound fx as the battle droid punches.

 

Can you imagine how easy it will be for them to do the voices for the clone troopers and droids? Its all the same voices. Guess its plenty fo work for those voice actors.

[yaebginn]

yeah. u from FL, right? Go Bucs. we are the best at all sports. Bucs win superbowl, lightning wins stanley cup, marlins win world series. we are the dominant state.

[TK-8252]

I think that a pilot being a mechanic is okay...

12. If the scout battle droid can call "orbital strikes" then they should have an added restriction.

I'm guessing an orbital strike is an SW version of artillery only minus the 2nd player which would fire the rounds which the scout spots. So what's to keep you from laying next to an ammo recharge and spamming "strikes"? I say force the scout to remain still and paint the target until the strike comes in. Calling it on the run won't work and calling it and moving will break the signal. Then provide a 6-8 second pause before another strike maybe called in. You could even have a clever sound bite say "One moment... our laser batteries are recharging." They could even build in code which calculates if the player is at the same location or with a small radius and calls in multiple strikes the time between each gets longer and longer. That forces the player expose themself and get in the game.

 

The way orbital strikes function (for the Imperial Officer, at least) is discussed in this article:

For the Imperial side, their special unit right now is the Imperial officer. He can heal troops, he can also deploy a probe droid to steer remotely around the battlefield. The cool thing about the probe droid is he can also call in a bombardment from orbit. He can drop off a beacon, and sound a warning, but then that area is pretty much going to be pummelled from space.

 

So the downside to orbital strikes is that you have to leave your player idle and unable to defend itself while you're remotely controlling the Probe Droid.

melee attacks with weapons that are out of ammo. For instance run out of blaster ammo and you automatically try to butt-stroke your opponent with the same fire button. This would help prevent the "knife fight" mentality. You'd have to first totally run out of ammo before you could run around like a jackass saying "knife fight only, knife fight only".

 

Rockets should penetrate a Droideka's shields.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

FL has gone off in recent years, a far cry from years and years past though.

[yaebginn]

yeah, that'd be great. ike in ed dead revolver. you can pistol whip a guy, stab with him a bayonet, if you are out of ammo.

[TK-8252]

No melee in Battlefront! The back-up weapon should just be the pistol with unlimited ammo. Oh god, I can just imagine it: "hay laemr!!!11!1 fists = peaece noob@!111"

[Mountainforest]

Yeah, melee would be nice. Like in Halo.

[SonOdin]

I want Jabba and the Rancor!!

You fight in Jabbaspalace, don´t watch out and fall into the rancors pit.... *dreaming*

 

Space battles: If the Empire has unlock the Deathstar , the rebels has the chance to destroy it like in episode 4

or 6 in a big spacebattle. If the rebels lose the fight, the imps can use their big weapon...

 

And I want Dewbacks on Tatooine!!

[PhireStorm]

I Want:

 

1) Awesome Graphics, such as droids busting apart, burning stuff, Falling AT-ATs, Flying debris, smoke

2)Stealth tactics

3) Battles occuring in space (ships)

4) The death star with all the pits!

5) Be able to capture people and use as hostages

[Master William]

Oh yeah, some sort of Friends list.

 

Don't worry guys, this game won't turn out like JO/JA at all. Nobody's gonna care if you are typing, anyone would be wise to not start typing in the middle of a war... do it while you're safe from enemy fire.

 

As for Pilots only be able to control aircraft, I think they're gonna go with the BF1942 style...

[killer007]

Okay things I wish for.

 

1. If you are in an area where there is flying debris I would like to see it do somesort of damage.

 

2. Ships that feel like how they are supposed to.

 

3. Maybe picking up a dead teamates weapons like if you need ammo or grenades. Only would work for your own class Like a scout cant pick up a rocket launcher.

 

thats all i can think of for now.

That has already been confirmed. You can pick up ammo from dead teammates/opponents. However, you can't pick up weapons.

[killer007]

They have confirmed that idea? I havent heard anything about it. Thanks though.

[Alegis]

1) Pilots should be able to throw their teammates out of a vehicle when they want to pilot it (what purpose has a pilot when it vcan't pilot something?).

It would be good cause ppl that cant fly wouldnt fly etc etc, but would be overused dont you think? Instead of Tkers they'd just come around drag you out

 

 

Lets see...

*Good voting GUI, with everything on it

*Balance system (You may not have double the amount of assault guys than pilots, for example, that stuff...also for vehicles)

*Taunts!

agree to alegis (^). just suppose there are two skilled pilots but both think he/she is better ... this would stop the whole actio cuz they would drag each other out all the time.

 

its better to bind an alarm like "hey, im pilot, let me do this job" to tell the player that a skilled one is near, bt not just drag them out.

[ShadowHawkTA]

I have to agree with the idea of being able to last. I dont want it to be the spawn three seconds later die thing that went on with the Unreal series.

[fuzzyfreaker]

I want to have a coruscant map soo bad, i mean, you can use a speeder and fly around and stuff, make it the largest map in the game.

[joesdomain]

Thermal Detonators! Thermal Detonators! Need I say more! The more the merrier. I want to be able to throw them at vehicles or inside a vehicle and blow them up.

[joesdomain]

I know this isn't going to happen but I would like background characters to show up like Bossk, Greedo, 4-LOM, Zuckuss, IG-88. Boba Fett, Jango Fett, Jabba the Hutt, Bib Fortuna, and any other main character from the star wars films.

[TK-8252]

Now THERE's a good idea. That'd be awesome if the Imperials could call bounty hunters, like how they call Darth Vader.

 

Maybe they can be modded into the game...

[JediKiller66]

I think that if ur a pilot and get shot down b4 u get blown to itty bitty pieces I want to be able to jump out and like partachute or light jetpack thingy like in bf1942.

[MobiuZ]

Why don't put Rankings in it ! that would be awesome !

like every single player has its own ID ( no mather what name he/her chooses ) and than like after 100 kills you become Private First Class , 200 : Corporal , 300 : Corporal First Class , and so on.

[fuzzyfreaker]

hey, not bad for a first post. Good idea... I also like the whole boba fett and secondary character idea.

[MobiuZ]

thx
