Destroyder121 Posted October 2, 2004 Share Posted October 2, 2004 Why their only avaible in the single player campaign(clone wars), on theed and the plains?it would be better if they would be avaible in MP in the same maps rather than super battledroids, as normals blend in better, also got much better weapons in my opinion. Though same question would apply for the gungans and royal guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdtech Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 They might have had it like this - Battle Droid is the normal soldier for the faction Droideka is the special unit But then they found out about Super Battle Droids and canned the Battle Droid. But they had to keep it in the Historical Campaign for realism. I think maybe the faction could go like this - Battle Droid = Soldier Super Battle Droid = Heavy Weapons Pilot Droid (Blue) = Pilot Assasin Droid = Scout Droideka = Unique Unit The SBD has rockets, weaker than the normal Hvy Weapons' launcher, but it has a better laser backup weapon that the usual Hvy Weapons' Blaster Pistol. Maybe they could remove the tri-shot mode and have a slower blaster, but say 8 rockets (with anti vehicle & anti personel modes)? That way we get all the units, but with the Battle Droid in as well. Maybe Pandemic? John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
primalunderdog Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 plus the era it is in, the standard battle droid became obsolete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_ToMeR Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 Not true. I played with the Super Battle Droid and the Clone soldier and they are the same. His gun is not weak, has fast reload and if you good at aiming you can take out any soldier with the rockets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Pandemic? John I like this idea. Since the Heavy Weapons unit needs to have thermal detonators, the Wrist Launcher should also function as a grenade launcher. When (or if) I can start modding SWBF, this is one of the things I'll do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
