It might be interested to be able to allot different deployment for each map, and experiment using different vehicles in different environments (though they would have to do stuff like prevent you from using AT-A Ts on Bespin.

Speaking of which, bring back Bespin (for some reason, I really miss it's irritating chokepoints), and that snowy temple stage from 1.

The only other stage from 1 that I remember in a major way was this one snow-citidel stage where AT-A Ts also spawned, but where they spawned so far away that you essentially missed half the match getting there.

AT-AT/AT-TE on Bespin Platforms.

Hmm?

It still pisses me off to no end that Battlefront 3 isn't getting released. As far as I'm concerned, Battlefront 2 was the shooter of the decade, and COD and Halo and Battlefield and even Gears of War (which I love, mind you) can kiss its ass.

I still say that if Lucasarts ever pulls a total 180 and decides to release Battlefront 3 (and if the game is actually good), I will rescind all the shit I give them for Empire at War and The Force Unleashed not being as good as they should have been.

One engineer with a rocket launcher and a dream vs an AT-AT...

I'll say one thing about the Empire, though. A lot of their vehicles had really obvious weak points...

[up]You can blame the movies for that. Only drives home the point of how impractical stuff like the AT-AT would be in real life.

What I remember most of part 1 is the epic AT-TE Odysseys my brother and I had on Geonosis. If you didn't take out the rocket things you were fucked as the Republic.

Empire at War was meh. It should have been infinitely better than it was. I wouldn't give it a second thought anymore if it wasn't for the modding community.

Same goes for The Force Unleashed.

Also, the first game's Geonosis was all kinds of fun. I remember uberpwning in the LAAT gunship. I would go whole games with zero deaths. It was boss.

My favorite map is still the map with the AT-AT/AT-TE on the ice place with the cave, though. It was quite varied and fun. I was mad as hell when it wasn't in the second game.

This is one of the few non-RPG games I played and I found it fun. Here's hoping for an Old Republic Battlefront game, I always wanted to ride those Mandalorian mecha-mounts (forgot how they are called)

I have a bad feeling about this...

Announcing the game would generate enough hype to cause more than a few servers to crash.

[up] I really don't care. As long as they come back up.

If this is done, I'd finally get a PS 3.

I know, I suck for having PS 2 still. I never get recent games unless their PC. My mom hates violence. When She saw me and my bro playing battle front 2, she threw a fit when it was rebels and Empire because it was people shooting each other.

So we told her we'd only play Vs. robots.(aka, clone wars). That didn't last long, and she dosn't even care when we play now. I'd think she though the storm troopers were robots, but she's seen star wars. I think she's just letting it slide.

I'm baaaaaaack

Wow... that sucks, man. Not the lack of a PS3 thing (I would know; I just recently picked up one for myself at the beginning of this year), but the whole your mother won't let you play Battlefront 2 thing. I guess some parents are more overprotective than others.

... does your mother even allow violent movies, out of curiosity?

EDIT: Oh wait, I see you mentioned she saw Star Wars. Kinda sounds like a Double Standard to me...

[up][up] She lets us now.

Violent movies, eh. Some. The less blood the better. I was watching Transformers revenge of the fallen the other day, and she watched some. She actually like it. But one time I was watching Fire Fly with my bro, she tried to let us watch, but once Kaylee got shot (it was the first episode) she didn't want it on.

Star Wars, she went with her aunt when it came out, so it was kind of special. she dosn't like the fighting parts.

Wow... That sucks. I don't have a PS 3 either, but for different reasons.

A) I can never save up enough money to buy one.

and B) My parents are worried that I play too many videogames.

@ Joe: Huh. That's a bit odd. Graphic violence is ok as long as it's not humans and there's no blood?

Pretty much, yea. She has no problems with The Clone Wars, for example.

Which seems to be built for parents like her. Sure, chop the robots in half, but humanoids? nope. Stabs through, or beheaded at worst.

[up] Just kiddin man, I don't play much either. Tv Tropes however...
