Star Wars Battlefront II

Has anyone seen the trailer for teh new Star Wars battlefront, it's brilliant! I'm completley addicted to Battlefront, I can't stop playing it! The new one has space levels, so if your a fan and your flying is a bit rusty (I know mine is!), then you better get practising!

heres a trailer: http://www.lucasarts.com/games/swbat...ndexFlash.html

Re: Star Wars Battlefront II

Certainly looks interesting - one of the things that put myself off Battle Front is that the number of unit types seemed possibly restricted - for example, Endor Moon troops are really designed to work in their own environment, and seemed odd seeing them play on non-Forest settings.

Re: Star Wars Battlefront II

Yeah, I know what yu mean, I think the CIS have quite a bit of disadvantage in that area. Although they have the roller droids which are qiute good for an advantage, they always seem to find a way to get rid of it- like on Kysykk (can't spell) docks, they die if they roll through the water, so you almost immediatlry loose the best part of the army. The other droids die a bit too qiucly for my liking, so I barley ever choose there side, although they have GREAT tanks.

Re: Star Wars Battlefront II

looks very good, i just wont to get back in the good old squints, i think its a very good idea also having jedi playable, i was a one man army on the first game i cant begin to imagine what it would be like as a jedi, hope you can play sith as well, like the idea as well that you fight in space and onboard ships thats so cool. oh and tikal how can you think that CIS where disadvantaged. as long as you play as super battle droid theres no way you can lose. (droidikas are slow and take to long to pack up/deploy so i never play as them)

Re: Star Wars Battlefront II

Oh come on, the CIS are easy to defeat! They look a bit menacing but I barlet lose against them! Thres always a strategy to use that kills them all, like on Dune Sea, you just fight your way to one of there tanks and kill them all in that one place, then if your tank is about to blow up you just get another one! It's easy. The super battle droids are good though, those mini rocket launchers on the arms are gr8!


I dont know about playing a jedi, I played on Stars wars episode III and it was no where near as good as battlefront! Hopefully though, you'll actually be able to kill the jedi on the next game, because it's really annoying when Vader just hangs around one of your bases and kills every1!

Re: Star Wars Battlefront II

Looks like a great game, and if it's better than #1 then all the better. I also liked to play as the SBD, uncomplicated and powerful, but found the CIS sometimes hard to defeat with their droidikas holding key positions. Also agree about the jedi, I pound luke with grenades, lasers and anything else I have, when his back's turned fighting someone else, and nothing! Can the Jedi be defeated?
An awesome game, and can't wait for the next one

Re: Star Wars Battlefront II

jedi can be killed, i have only managed about 6 times but it can be done, i hate it when you shoot them and then they just run after you everywhere until you die

Re: Star Wars Battlefront II

Re: Star Wars Battlefront II

Not a bad plan, I think it's evil that thay can deflect something that big and that powerful! It's ridiculus! I might try shhoting one down the the rebels x-wings . thts ALWAYS fun!

Re: Star Wars Battlefront II

Good to know they can be killed, I'll have to try the old AT-AT attack myself. By the way, do the heroes stay dead, or do they respawn somewhere?

Re: Star Wars Battlefront II

they respawn, which is good, because heros are the only ones who can keep up with me
