Star Wars Battlefront Trailer (Release 11-17-15)

[Silko]

I can get on board with no space battles or prequel era stuff. Space battles were a big deal during the prequel era, but don't really fit with the Rebellion Era. There were only like 2 or 3 really important space battles in the originals.

Space battles have always been a major part of any galactic war in Star Wars. The 2 major space battles seen in the originals (The Battle of Yavin 4 and Endor) where not the only major battles during the Galactic Civil War. While it is not shown during Empire Strikes Back, there was a space battle during the Battle of Hoth. Reasons for not showing it include money, run time, production time, and the fact that the battle was short due to the massive amount of Imperial ships vs a smaller Rebel fleet. Other space battles include battles such as the Battle of Kothlis and the Battle of Gall.

While I am disappointed on the lack of space battles, I do trust DICE to deliver an amazing ground game. I hope the in atmosphere flight will be a combo of Battlefront 1's version and the jet system in Battlefield. This fusion would be amazing. As for load outs I would be very ok with a battlefield inspired load out system but taken a step further in that it will allow us to customize armor. For example being able to change out standard Stormtrooper armor for Dark Nova trooper armor.

I'm kinda sad this wasn't set in the new era to help tie in the movies. :c

I love you too, Silko!

Hey what can I say, the armor is sick looking

The first game never had space battles, nor campaign. So I'm not worried. If third person does go away, I will be sad though.

Well tough shit. Maul won't be in this as there won't be any prequel battles

I know right IT IS TERRIBLE

I know right IT IS TERRIBLE

Not really in my opinion. Nothing real special happened in that time to warrant them to focus on those like they did for the others. I wouldn't be surprised though if prequel battles and maps don't come into the future as DLC

Game has been confirmed to support both 1st and 3rd period person views.


The old Battlefronts had "loadouts" as well, except technically it was just choosing a class (and they had like 5-6 of them Lol; they better keep Wookies!!!)

We all have to remember that as amazing as the original Battlefronts were, there is a reason this is called Star Wars: Battlefront and not Star Wars Battlefront 3; it is a reboot of the series that was inspired by the original games, but they are not making it a direct sequel so we need to have the mindset that while the old ones inspired this, they were never obliged to keep certain things or exclude certain things.
