Imagine persistant-state civil war! That would be awesome, but if you can do GC online, who would make the choices of where to invade and stuff? A vote maybe? Edit: *looks up the thread and sees that there IS a metagame vote label and gets all giddy* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kashyyyk is not labeled on the site as the EPIII planet. All it says is EPIII planet coming soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neon Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 But can you use console, and Voice Chat is it with a microphone, or voice chat like roger and go go go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alegis Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 Originally posted by StarWarsPhreak No kidding. But according to Vader 523: He states that the Episode 3 planet is Kashyyyk. I'm asking how can Kashyyyk be the Ep3 Planet when it is already on the official site. the complete map list has been known for quite some time now...if its like that on LEC site, they made a mistake.

kailaurius Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 Originally posted by Vader523 Some more info: I think the online ability will connect to a gamespy server of some sort. Here are a few status labels: "gamespy.status.GP_CHATTING" "gamespy.status.GP_OFFLINE" "gamespy.status.GP_ONLINE" "gamespy.status.GP_PLAYING" "gamespy.status.GP_STAGING" Chat rooms possibly with text chat? Ill keep looking through the labels and see what else I find. SW-BF.DE-Interview with Pandemic Studios We have a Profile management system. These work in a couple ways. For one, a player can simply create a Profile and then use it for his/her single player games or for use online without any trouble. Then, if a player wants to take it further, after a Profile is created, the player can create a GameSpy ID and keep track of himself/herself online. The combination of the two will allow the player to post statistics online automatically. Those stats and a host of "global" stats will be found at the LucasArts Battlefront website! Players will be able to view their overall ranking and many other fun-to-know facts about themselves and others (i.e. favorite weapon, amount of time played, etc.).

Vader523 Posted September 18, 2004 Author Share Posted September 18, 2004 Nice info kailaurius! Now im even more excited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alegis Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 That would explain leaderboards. May all sound nice i doubt i'll go in the trouble with gamespy to use it..amount of hours is all i need (other stats i know by myself or in the game) and xfire records those already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kailaurius Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 Yay the forums are back up. What was the deal yesterday? Anyway hey Vader523, does it specify in the config file anywhere about port numbers? Since the devs have given us no info or detail on setting up a dedicated server it would be nice to at least know what port number to use so that I can tinker with setting up my dedicated server right away. I'm behind a few firewalls and need to know what port numbers to open up so I can at least get that part out of the way. I'm hoping there will be some info on setting up a dedicated server in the game's box or on the CD or something. Great info so far vader, thx.

Vader523 Posted September 18, 2004 Author Share Posted September 18, 2004 Well since its the PS2 demo, I dont know if I will find anything about ports. I will look though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDKnite188 Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 Wow. I am getting very excited about a possiblity of an ongoing civil war that servers can host. I was thinking about this as a community-organized idea, but it might be possible directly in game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master William Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 Whoa, cool screenshot of Vader!

Red_Six Posted September 19, 2004 Share Posted September 19, 2004 Regarding the heroes, they don't really make that much of a difference in the multiplayer game. Not many people have them in their game servers but for the few that did have them in, all that happens is they run around and kill the AI. I have not seen any of them take over a command post for the opposite team. They are impossible to kill with blasters but I haven't thrown a detorator or concussion grenabe at them yet - not sure what that will do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vader523 Posted September 19, 2004 Author Share Posted September 19, 2004 Thanks for the info Red_Six! I really appreciate you taking the time from Battlefront (Which I am sure is hard!) to answer our questions! I am just wondering, if a person wants to make a dedicated server, you said they cant play in it. Is it possible to make one and be able to accually stay in it? Is lag an issue? What about the graphics, how are they? And finally, can auto-aim be activated online? Thanks again, just want to clear those up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
