It is very much like the AT-ST...the driver controls the head, chin guns, and the vehicle. The co-pilot controls the ear guns which are great for taking out snowspeeders and infantry.

Besides what good it is to see the sniper when you are lying on the ground dead :p . Im just saying an army of elite snipers could take down all the enemy infantry it seems, then just add couple of Heavy Weapons dude and yeah on a clear map like Geonosis, the enemy has no hope. Just introducing my clan strategies :cool:

Nortenyo, are you some sort of developer or tester? How do you know all this information? I'm not doubting any of the info you present, but I'm just curios about how you know such information.

If the info is true, then one of my worries has been put to rest: Getting to actually control the AT-AT. I had a feeling the devs may have given such a job to AI because they may have thought that driving something as slow may be boring (I don't believe so, the reason I got into this game is for the soul reason that I get to pilot an AT-AT).

I know how you feel. My dreams came true when I found out you can pilot an AT-AT. My all time fav vehicle. If you love the AT-AT, then you will love this game. I play HOTH over and over. As you would expect the AT-AT is slow, but powerful. I don't mind that it is slow. This doesn't surprise me as a fan. I know that it is slow. I wouldn't want it to be faster. It wouldn't be true to the original, otherwise. You remember that part of ESB when an AT-AT is firing it's chin guns, and then it sort of turns a bit so that it can quickly shoot down an approaching snowspeeder with the ear guns, and then resumes firing at infantry with its chin guns? I had a moment like that in the game. It was soooo cool. I know because I work here at Pandemic on Battlefront.

An AT-AT's armor is too powerful to be pierced by T-47 laser bolts. In ESB when the AT-AT falls down, then gets blown up with four laser bolts, that puzzles me and pisses me off so badly because I can't figure out why it works that way.

 

The neck of an AT-AT is not (heavily) armored. Only one AT-AT had a (heavily) armored neck, and that was the AT-AT of some paranoid Imperial officer.

It takes several rockets to take out an AT-ST, and the reload time is long, plus, the driver could know where the rocket came from and fire away effectivly killing the heavy weapons person with splash damage. If its not skill to single handandle take out an AT-ST then I don't know what is.
