Carbon Freeze Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 Mine shipped from EB games today so it's out there. I don't know if it's in stores yet though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreaseMonkey Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 Guides do usually come out before game do. I remember one time the CS:condition zero guide was out about a month before the actual game was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reltes Posted September 15, 2004 Share Posted September 15, 2004 are you gonna read the guide before playing the game? wouldn't that ruin it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragnarr Posted September 15, 2004 Share Posted September 15, 2004 Ermm no, Read it and pick out any detail from it and then post the essential parts like vehicle list on the forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Dark Jedi Posted September 15, 2004 Share Posted September 15, 2004 No in my local game store there is no advertisement on Battlefront but the last time I walked past a swear I saw it. The battlefront cover on a big magazine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alegis Posted September 15, 2004 Share Posted September 15, 2004 Originally posted by thejeditraitor are you gonna read the guide before playing the game? wouldn't that ruin it? Why ? For a SP game with lots of surprises etc it could ruin it, like spoilers for a movie; but i dont think it mlatters much in this case does it? Its full with map plans and some basic strategies "There is a hole in this wall, go in it and camp". (from some other prima guide) Its not really a necessity at all. the maps may come in handy for clans for drawing tacs. If someone has this guide and a scanner let me know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil Dark Jedi Posted September 15, 2004 Share Posted September 15, 2004 When I go there again ill see if I can find it again. The next time I go there will either be the 21st or 18th. So if its there I will beg that my dad buy it j/k. I will actually ask him and if he says no I will save up my money to get it though my dad doesnt like it when I get those guides cause he says its cheating in the game its for.

Wardog1368 Posted September 15, 2004 Share Posted September 15, 2004 I can see wanting a map but a guide for this come on whats it going to say, "remember to shoot the imperials". Come on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonSlasher Posted September 15, 2004 Share Posted September 15, 2004 the only use for a strategic guide for a shooter would have to be on different ways how to win sertain maps, the advantages and disadvantages, so yes, it would be handy for those who have one.

Don't spoil the fun! Finding the best strategy is just as enjoyable as fragging a n00b! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YourBestFriend Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 I took a look at the strategy guide at my local EB Games. Vehicle Confirmations: We already know about all the vehicles that will be in the game, either from the official site or from the x-box vehicle preview. Sorry, no surprises gusy. Planet Confirmations: Bobby's Helmet has previously posted the complete 16 levels included in the game. Thats all of 'em. The big surprise to me is that Kyshyyyk (I know i am spelling this wrong) is mostly a tropical planet map. Lots of water & huts, quite contrary to the books. Besides that, I didn't see anything all that important... just thought I'd confirm what we already knew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reelguy227 Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 I think it would spoil it also . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonSlasher Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 how would it be spoiled if you collaberate those strategy's with your own? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 I thought many Prima guides tend to suck. Also, if there ends up being patches to alter gameplay, then they can become immediately obsolete... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alegis Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 I just want good maps, that's all. I wouldn't even think a second they would come up with better strats than i could Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 I will find out good strategys when I have the game, but I won't play with bastard strategys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonSlasher Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 do what you wish, but those who tend to be 'battlefront masters' will most likely have the strategy guide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Fisher Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 I bought the Prima guide for Jedi Academy, and it had all the bonus maps and everything included... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
