Anything to add?

[REDJOHNNYMIKE]

I'd like to see some old republic stuff, mandalorians anyone?

[zerted]

Nice map list. What makes you think there will be a SWBF3?

[Fate's Decision]

Probably because of all the unpatchable complaints about SBFII. This is a neat map list (somebody reads the books). I'd be suprized if they made all of these levels, but some of them would be nice...maybe I could mod some of them when they come out with modding tools.

Actually I read wikipedia. I think Lucasarts will make BF3, because they're greedy, and it would be the sequel to the sequel of the best-selling Star wars games of all time. For all we know BF2 could surpass BF in sales. I think there will be a Jedi class, similar to the heroes, except less powerful and with normal health. It will be useable in space and will give extra energy to any vehicle piloted. I also want to see space battles and land battles combined (like Gunships at Geonosis). We know they could've done it (Gunships on Kamino in the Campaign).

[MachineCult]

I hope there will be a SWBF3, but please none of this obscure EU crap, Great Sith Wars? No. Lucasarts are trying to appeal to gamers, not superhardcore Star Wars fans. I do hope that they make the Clone armies different for each map and have the right commanders.

I wouldn't mind some EU heroes like maybe Ventress or Kyle Katarn, def. more Old Republic Jedi Heroes.

 

lordzack, your map list was an enormous waste of time, if Battlefront III is made then only a small fraction of those maps would be put in the game.

[TK-8252]

For SWBF3 I'd like them to finally make a decent game... BF2 engine anyone?

[Darth Andrew]

I hope there will be a SWBF3, but please none of this obscure EU crap, Great Sith Wars? No.

I highly agree with you on this. Most Star Wars gamers (who aren't hardcore) would only care about the battles in the movies and those within the general time frame of the movies. I would let a bit of leeway go a bit before or after the saga, but that's it.

 

BUT, I highly doubt it ther will be a Battlefront III. Why? It's gotten to be the same ol', same ol'. The game engines have remained the same; the gameplay has remained the same. We need dynamic gameplay like in the Battlefield series; there needs to be more team involvement instead of everyone going solo and attempting to be the hero. Of coure Battlefront isn't supposed to to be Battlefield, but maybe it should. As it is right now, LucasArts isn't capable of creating a real Battlefront.

 

EDIT: Ah. TK beat me to the whole Battlefield bit.

[ParanoidAndroid]

If they did make BF3, it would have to be a considerable improvement to get me to buy it, more then just a whole lot of extra maps. As much as I liked BF2, I want something more visably improved before I would buy a third game.

[Commander Obi-Wan]

Too many levels listed.....I hope SWBF3 is better.

[REDJOHNNYMIKE]

Depending on the current and projected battlefront 2 sales (anybody here have a link to that, might be useful) Lucas Arts probably will continue the series.

 

@Machine Cult, Please don't refer to the EU as crap, it has it's qualities.

If you compare the NT to the OT the entire clone war is crap, but it still makes a darn good game. Republic soldiers fighting against Sith soldiers on Manaan or Naar Shadaa (both from kotor) would be just as good gameplay wise as rebels vs troopers on Mustafar or Yavin 4.

As long as the current wars are improved upon there is no reason not to include "Official" EU wars, eventually people are going to get tired of playing the exact same soldiers and want something new, that's where EU battles (especially on the galactic scale of the Old Republic era battles) can add variety.

 

Besides battle settings and soldiers the gameplay itself needs to be deeper, and since Battlefront is, for the most part, Battlefield with lightsabers much can be applied from battlefield 2, mainly the leadership system, with a Commander and squad leaders. One way that LA could beat BF2 would be to integrate the galactic conquest with a BF2 leadership system where one player is the Emperor/Rebel Leader/etc. with an RTS view of the galaxy map, he has the power to decide which troops are sent to which area, what supplies they recieve (bought with money from winning and completing objectives, of course) and communicates directly with commanders (might have an option to appear as a superHero on a certain map, depending on a grade of his leadership abilities, the balance to having a SH on the map would be a decrease in organization and a halt to supplies...SH's might include Palpatine, Vader, Luke, and Yoda (all more powerful than their original versions) and Malak, Sion, Revan, and Exile EU XP) the commanders would assume the same role as those in BF2, directly commanding squad leaders and micromanaging every battle (access to higher ranks is based on an actual rank system so you don't have 9 year olds whining about how they would be a better commander).

 

One thing I want to see improved is the story games, There was only the 501st???

What about other groups who aren't famous because a bunch of fans dress like troopers (not hating on them by the way:))

I'd like to see more stories, and all of them adapted for coop mode.

[Redtech]

I wouldn't mind having "unlockable factions". Playing the Sith army might be a funny spoof as a reward for example, heck, I want to take over the univese as the Naboo! Something that'd actually make it worth playing the game more than 4 times (to complete galactic conquest).

 

More levels, bigger levels, I've said it on other threads.

 

I think the sides need to be differentiated slightly, at the mo, they're too similar, I don't mind the classes, but can't it be that the Imps have the higher HP, then clones, then Cis, then rebels, or that certain sides excel in one area, such as CIS are better against vehicles in comparisons with the Republic, who are advantaged at infantry fights? Nothing game ruining, but something that makes chosing the side more important than "I wuv Droidekas!"

[Darth Andrew]

Thats where Battlefront I excelled at. The Rebel vanguard shot 2 rockets instead of one, and Rebel and CIS snipers could zoom in farther than their enemy counterparts.

 

I think, though, to make the game more interesting, the way combat is played needs to change drastically. No more running and gunning until you croak; howzabout instead maybe only one life per class? You'd have to use cover effectively, and always look ahead for enemies. Though in this day and age of gaming, that is too drastic.

[PoiuyWired]

Well, I think there should be some balance between appealing to hardcore fans and casual gamers. StarWars games are unlike StarTreks... many more normal people play StarWars games.

 

So the majority of SWBF series should be about gamous movie battlefrounds, after all SWBF series is more casual gaming than canon SW actions (don't get me started)

 

That having sait, it would be nice if they include a few EU maps, both for multiplayer and as story inserts (think the jabba palace map). It attracts more people to explore the EU world, without being too overwelming.

 

Sure the great sith wars would be fun, sure kotor maps would be fun, sure Vezhaan Vongs would be cool... but thats too drastic...

[ParanoidAndroid]

I do miss the uniqueness between the armies now that you mention it, they were still balanced, but all had subtle details to make them unique. Right now the only thing that's really diffrent between the teams is the Super battledroid vs. all the other infantry units and all the speacial units/commanders.

 

I also agree, the game needs somthing to make playing it more interesting, somthing to give levels more of a point, capturing flags and CP's is an ok start, but how about somthing larger, more ultimate, some sort of objective to give purpose to the battles, also levels themselves could be made a bit larger and more intense but this has been gone over many many times before, just read the "custom maps" thread...

[jimmypop86]

I miss the differences between the different armies too. Though the rebel vanguard firing two missles to the empire's one was annoying. That could have been fixed by making the reload time of the empire's vanguard quicker or letting the rebel's vanguard carry two less missles.

 

the game needs somthing to make playing it more interesting, somthing to give levels more of a point

 

I def. agree with this statement. For the online play more teamwork forced goals would be nice. For 1-4 players, yes I said 4 players, having a Hoth type map with the empire star destroyers and the rebel cannons playable would be nice, along with a ground attack. Being able to coordinate the air and ground battle at the same time would be great. Even having something like that online would be fun. An AT-AT is destroyed and the empire would have to send another one down to the surface, this would give the rebels a chance. Even having the launch point for the AT-AT be in firing range of the rebels ground cannon so you have to figure out a way to bluff the rebels into firing and getting your ship in the spawn area for a AT-AT launch while waiting on the rebel cannon to recharge.

 

 

 

Aanything to increase the replay value in single player mode would work for me. Better graphics and maybe some more interesting classes of soldiers would be a step in the right direction too. The new classes they introduced were good, they need to be tweaked and have a few more added to them. I get tired of playing online and having everyone fighting as a vanguard or as a pilot

[Rok_stoned]

I'm not sure if it's listed but manaan would be cool with the part under water thing going and sharks an maybe specialised stormtroopers.

[zerted]

...StarWars games are unlike StarTreks... many more normal people play StarWars games...

I am fans of both and Babylon 5, FireFly, and more. I think I'm normal enough...

[THX1138_Scorpio]

I miss the differences between the different armies too. Though the rebel vanguard firing two missles to the empire's one was annoying. That could have been fixed by making the reload time of the empire's vanguard quicker or letting the rebel's vanguard carry two less missles.

 

For the record, I'd bet all my Imperial Credits that the vanguard's reload time was more than the shock trooper's. Or was the clip of rockets for the shock trooper different. Idk anymore bf1 was a huge glitchy, poorly patched blur for me.

 

 

As for SWBF3, I highly doubt LA could milk any more money out of people into another game. Considering they've already stopped listening to the gamers and denied us access to linux support for servers, which would help keep more gamers longer, I really don't think they're going to have a huge, loyal fan base to buy the game. ESPECIALLY alienating their PC and PS2 fanbase by making the new buyable update only available for those ******* console nubs on the xblow.

[PoiuyWired]

I am fans of both and Babylon 5, FireFly, and more. I think I'm normal enough...

 

*cough* By "normal" I mean non-fans.

 

Yes, I mean people who think wookiees are on the Enterprise and Vulcans are Sith Lords... oh wait, those are just nut cases.

[McCusto]

How about planets that were acutally in the movie, and that most people have even heard of?

[lordzack]

Yes, I did waste my time with the map list. but I also had fun. Every Battlefront in the movies is in my list, I think.

[McCusto]

I have heard of Lok, atleast. And the pirate base name is Nym's Stronghold

[KenobiChronicle]

Hello?! Nar Shadda Anyone?

[SirLancelot]

I think one disadvantage this series has is it's concurrent development across multiple platforms. Battlefield 2 had the advantage of being exclusively developed for PC. The console version came out later. I think Pandemic needs to concentrate on one platform at a time, this way they can take advantage of the strengths of each player medium.

 

That being said, if SWBFII is doing well in sales, I cannot see why Lucasarts would abandon the franchise. After all, EA has been milking the Battlefield series for a few years.
