MaximumMayhem Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 Hi there Battlefronters! Im pleased to announce that IGN have released the details of the Galactic Empire for everyone's perusal. Some interesting points I read were that the Dark Trooper; being a close quarter specialist, will use their jump-pack (not to traverse the battlefield, but) to allow them to gain close proximity to their opponent so they can fully harness the destructive power of their main weapon: the Golan Arms Blast Cannon. It also seems that the Scout Trooper class is being treated as an ideal sniper unit. That is, it is created for patient long distance attacks. To compare it to Battlefield, I found the maps there werent created with such patient strategies in mind. Im sure this will make for some interesting 'sniper duels'. You may also enjoy the addition to the game of a well known stationary 'NPC' featured in the Dark Trooper screen shot Everytime I read up on a Designer Diary or gameplay feature or class description, it gives me an even deeper appreciation for the amazing efforts that the team at Pandemic have gone to. It looks like everything is just about set to give us all an amazing 'ride', so to speak. IGN's Galactic Empire Feature I look forward to contending against you all online. If my broadband application is rejected however, then its single player for me. Fare thee all well - Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revlt Coranier Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 Originally posted by MaximumMayhem You may also enjoy the addition to the game of a well known stationary 'NPC' featured in the Dark Trooper screen shot I don't see any NPCs in the Dark Trooper screenshot. I see an AT-ST, a Sarlaac, sand, and some rocks. Unless the Sarlaac is the NPC you were talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gr Moff Matt Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 The date on the article says 31st of August, but can you trust it? Hmm the Dark Trooper looks different to what i've seen in other screenshots from other games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
