JawaJoey Posted July 22, 2004 Posted July 22, 2004 I don't know if this has been posted yet, but here it is. I read a Battlefront article in some game magazine. It was interesting, but had no new information in it, BUT it defintely implied that Jawa Sandcrawlers would be drivable. That would be a cool, unexpected surprise I think.
reltes Posted July 22, 2004 Posted July 22, 2004 that would rule if you could hijack one from the jawas and run them all over.
Global Strike Posted July 22, 2004 Posted July 22, 2004 If you can drives sandcrawlers in bf, will it have a time machine so you can go back to the clone wars and reprogram alot of the separtist's droids so you can sell them and get rich? That would be cool. :jawa
jdtech Posted July 22, 2004 Posted July 22, 2004 What sort of weaponary does the Sandcrawler have, or maybe it is a disguise? There are Jawas just driving about, and you lose tickets if you kill inocent Jawas, but some of the Sandcrawlers the players can use... so you couldn't tell the difference between a real Sandcrawler and an under cover one. Cheers, John
Alegis Posted July 22, 2004 Posted July 22, 2004 sandcrawler could be mobile spawnbox, since it has no weapons, and is very slow
reltes Posted July 23, 2004 Posted July 23, 2004 if you can use it, it's probably a vehicle pilots can commandeer, like the rebels take it to use as a tank or battering ram through the enemy to reach a spawn point and probably carry a bunch of buds.
joesdomain Posted July 23, 2004 Posted July 23, 2004 I was hoping we could have renegade Jawas sorta like ones that work for Jabba and you can kill them for points.
Master William Posted July 23, 2004 Posted July 23, 2004 Cool indeed, someone could drive while everyone else stand in the openings and shoot at anyone in sight, sort of like a fortress on wheels
All_Mighty_Ewok Posted July 23, 2004 Posted July 23, 2004 While the sandcrawler sounds fun, there already is a mobile death fortress: The AT-AT. Also, in case u guys havent heard, the AT-AT functions as a mobile spawn point. the imps are gonna kick sum major ass!! That's why i'll have to be a rebel and beat them down!!!
Whoopknacker Posted July 23, 2004 Posted July 23, 2004 I think that the only good thing about the sandcrawler would be to fight in it. Just like the aircraft carriers of BF42. It is fun to be a stowaway and start nailing people. As far as a weapon, crap Stormtrooper blasters screwed that thing up in Star Wars.
joesdomain Posted July 23, 2004 Posted July 23, 2004 I think we see alot of the sandcrawlers and jawa camps in the tatoonie map. I haven't seen any screenshots with jawas so I don't know!
JawaJoey Posted July 23, 2004 Author Posted July 23, 2004 I imagine the use of a Sand crawler would be to just transport a bunch of people somewhere safely. Everyone just jumps in, and the thing steadily treads past enemy lines, until you get to the right spot, then you all jump out, and it's be hard to kill. But that's speculation. And what I read was by no means an explicit comfirmation, but it was strongly implied.
Whoopknacker Posted July 23, 2004 Posted July 23, 2004 Ok then have a sandcrawler but fill it with Jawas. When you blast them you have to hear the OO TE DE. MUHAHAHA
joesdomain Posted July 23, 2004 Posted July 23, 2004 I mean it is Tatoonie. You have to have Jawas as well as the Tusken Raiders.
joesdomain Posted July 23, 2004 Posted July 23, 2004 I think it would be cool to use a sandcrawler or to blast it to bits. Plus killing jawas is another cool reason to have them in the map.
anders^on Posted July 23, 2004 Posted July 23, 2004 Well, I could imagine a map in which the your main objective is to blow up the sandcrawler of the enemy team .. would be fun I suppose.
Evil Dark Jedi Posted July 25, 2004 Posted July 25, 2004 I think the jawas would be on the rebels side.The sandcrawler could be a transport like people have said.You could destroy them by planting a mine in it.Imagine if the Tusken Raiders took the sandcrawlers.
joesdomain Posted July 25, 2004 Posted July 25, 2004 Maybe the sandcrawler could stay in one place and be the spawning point for your computer troopers. Just a guess!
JediKiller66 Posted July 25, 2004 Posted July 25, 2004 maby jawas can help the rebels or sumthing like disbling some droids or something
THE BADGER: Posted July 25, 2004 Posted July 25, 2004 Isn't a sand crawler the thing that Jabba the Hut made Luke walk the plank off of into the sarlacc?
Stingray Posted July 25, 2004 Posted July 25, 2004 No, a sandcrawler is the big fortress-like drivable thing used by the jawa's. You can see it in the SW: episode IV. R2D2 has been traded to the Jawa's and you can see him being sucked into the sand-crawler through some huge pipe. Check these pictures: http://216.127.78.103/~dutch-starwars.com/database/voertuigen/pics/sand_crawler.jpg http://www.willfreddy.blogger.com.br/sandcrawler.jpg
joesdomain Posted July 26, 2004 Posted July 26, 2004 What if they also used Jabba's Palace also on the Tatoonie map like as a place to fight around. Someone could try to control the palace. Just a thought while I was sitting here.
