Star Wars Battlefront 1 and 2

Still it would have been cool to have Luke and Vader duel in the carbon freezing chamber.

Would have been nice to see a lot of things. This game's biggest problem is the low number of planets, I'd say. Maybe there will be a Battlefront III with at least over thirty planets, cool new features and an off the chain campaign.

Only real problems I have the game don't really have to do with gameplay, its just to me:

 

- A lot of the ships don't look right to me, such as the Calamari crusier, the trade fed control ships, and the victory star destroyers.

 

-and what is up with LAATs being able to fight in space?

 

 

The thing I like most to do is mow down clone troopers as darth maul, I love throwing my saber at a trooper far away and as it is coming back it nails another that got in its way.

My brother says that he got like 16 troopers in one throw once.

I agree the mon cal is, pathetic there is hardly any texture on it, the trade feds one is not bad.

LAATs are space capable, they just don't have a hyperdrive. Their primary use was ground assault ships, but they made for nasty gunships in space also.

 

I got to play this game at the LAN center and I still don't like it. The AI is still retarded (I walked right past the enemy on the hardest difficulty on some city map and they didn't fire at me), weapons still don't feel right, and they've gotten rid of most of the ground vehcile maps. Yes, there are space fighter maps, but I don't like the controls or feel of the space fighters and the TIE isn't agile or fast enough to pose a threat to a decent X-wing pilot. Also they nerfed the graphics on the PC so it could be easily ported to console, so the PC game look very mediocre. Blah...

Nah, it is only atmospheric:

Rugged, combat-equipped repulsorcraft, Republic attack gunships rained down blistering barrages of laser and rocket retribution against the droid forces of the Separatists. Each winged gunship was covered in weapons, offering air-to-ground and air-to-air support as well as serving as an infantry transport.

it is a repulsorcraft, meaning it would work as well as a landspeeder in space.

From what I read they were deployed and retrieved from orbit.

 

From wikipedia:

LAAT/i (Space-deployed)

 

Certain models of this transport can deploy from space, but requires a mothership vessel such as the Acclamator-class assault ship (This variant could be called a High Altitude Assault Transport). This variant appears in Star Wars: Battlefront II.

 

Edit: Ahhhh.... Different variant. Also they show them being deployed from orbit in the animated series.

Yea, the clone wars cartoon showed them being deployed from space too, but the immediatley go into the atmosphere. I'm sure BF2 will solidify it as a spacecraft tho.

Clone Wars aint cannon you know.

[Ghostly_Substance]

Well normally I ignore this but if it wasn't cannon it wouldn't be in theaters or mentioned in Episode 4 which was normally 1.

[plokoon9619]

the cartoon not books

[Ghostly_Substance]

I got Battlefront 2 today and its actually pretty good. Fairly well done and I like this quote:

 

"We need more soilders like you" other stormtroopers say LOL. My fav map is Mustafar and Tantive IV. I cant remember the other one but its a good game. Anakin is the strongest hero for newbies. DeathStar is cool but I didn't see any places I recognized.

Also there will be an expansion for the xbox version of Battlefront II
