StarWars Battlefront Gameplay!

[CekiHappy]

Maybe you guys are seeing something im not, but it just looks like air superiority in star wars. mrw

Spoiler: show

[Gwynzer]

The difference, Ceki, is that it's Star Wars.

But I agree. Doesn't look like much at all.

Yeah it's air superiority with an added objective (i.e. another railed vehicle) and the same system with heroes but in the air (Han Solo's ship versus Boba Fett's). What I'm curious about is how the hero ships will work; I don't think they would go the extra mile to make the Falcon 3- or 4-seated, especially if Boba Fett's is going to be 1 person. Also, it looks like main laser cannons have an auto-lock area where if you're "accurate enough" you'll automatically lock on to the person you're chasing with your main guns, not just A2A missiles... I understand it's Star Wars lasers but they're making the game require less and less skill... Battlefront 2 wasn't like this
EDIT: At least it looks like they're using the max player count of 40 even for air superiority

Nope, sorry Roka, but its 20 players + 20 AI = 40 fighters + transport ships in the sky

You sure about this? I've read a different thread that said it was 20 v 20 (+10 AIs per side). 10 v 10 sounds weaksauce.

I didn't read anything, but 10 v 10 sounds too weak and 20(+10) v 20(+10) sounds like "too much" for DICE since they complained so much about the player count and AI systems.

So it's 10v10 players with AI. I guess when they heard fans wanted a higher player count they... lowered the player count and replaced them with bots. dope
