On SINGLE player Hoth, is it possible to win as rebels without taking out the AT-ATs? I've come close, but no cigar. Even with an AI partner, when I switch to shoot the tow cable the AI guy will crash the speeder. Will the AI guy shoot the tow cable? If so how do I know he has, it has attached, and I need to start circling the AT-AT?

 

Any tips at taking out AT-AT in single player would be appreciated.

 

Are there any different tips to taking out AT-AT in multiplayer?

 

Thanks,

Just fly in low and close to the legs You should hear him shooting the cable though it may take a few tries. When He hits a leg the camera will fall back a bit more for a better view. Now just hug the legs when coming around the head as to avoid being hit by the heavy lasers.

Just to add on a little. If you start the map in the speeder, try taking out the at at on the left. When I make the mistake of taking the one on the right I usually have to dodge his buddy's blasts.:(

AI have no problems to fly well and circle around the ATATs.

I just flew in gunner position and AI and me took out 4 ATATs.

Apologies for the offtopicsness, but I don't get this guy. He sent me a PM asking what my XBOX online username was among other things... I don't have XBOX online and I have no idea what made you think I had. next to that I have no idea why he has contacted me. Only because I live in the Netherlands as he did a while ago? I suggest you "cream somebody up" who's still playing battlefront (on XBOX).

 

 

as for the topic:

I never had much trouble with the AI. If I'm gunner, the usually shoot the tow-cable to to the legs and when I'm gunner they usually fly around the legs like a charm. Btw, if you are flying low, at low speed (keeping the brake pressed, that is) and pull up, you can make a looping :p It isn't very usefull, but I suppose it's fun if you want to show off after destroying an AT-AT.

when i play i fly the speeder up to the at-at then switch posistions then fire the harpoon and let the AI take over flying he is usally accurate at circling the at-at.

 

Never come up behind an at-at as they can see you on the radar and use their heavy blasters on you.

Sometimes I'll try to show off and take down an ATAT by myself. I'll fly in slow, switch places to the back, fire tow cable, and switch back, then get around. Unfortuneatly, it has never worked for me. :(

I guess being I started this topic I should say I was able to take down the AT-ATs with AI gunner following advice given here.

 

Thanks all

If you're playing against a whole bunch of real life humans... check your 6 o'clock! They're probably firing 20 missiles your way... and if you slow down you're in for an unwelcome treat!

 

If you take heavy damage you best fly full speed back to the hangar where R5 droids can heal you. This is much quicker than trying to heal the speeder by just being inside as a pilot (pilots heal vehicles they are inside, but much slower than the R5 droids, or pilots using the fusion cutter to repair you from outside).

 

Fly safe now!!

Me and AI pilots go together like ice-cream and worcester sauce.

 

I've only tried going in for the kill with an AI piloting a few times but have had limited success so far. My AI either crashes or flies into a laser blast. lol

 

Come to think of it, the server I've tried in was always set to medium level settings. I wonder if AI skill setting makes much difference to piloting skill....I'll have to check that out.

 

Unless there's a bunch of homing rockets on my tail in multiplayer then taking out an AT-AT with a 'human' companion isn't very difficult at all. AT-ATs that are near a slope can be trickier but keep your cool, find a good balance for your speed and you'll be bringing them down like skittles.

When there are two AT-ATs :atat: Try and take the BACK AT-AT out first. And AI often fly very well, but just do not switch to gunner position to suddenly. That way they often crash in a rock or a building etc. I hope this will help you:)
