Anyone here play this game? I do it's really fun. What do you all think of it?

I have it. It's not really an addictive game for me. Sort of like it was with BF1942. The Dark Stormtroopers are awesome though.

it isn't nearly as addictive as halo 2 that's for sure.

But yeah Darktroopers are awesome

I thought it was a great game (esspecially if you're a Star Wars fan) but I thought there could have done with being more levels. Also, I thought some of the levels could have been alot bigger - by the time you've taken off in an X-Wing, you only get to fly forward for about 3 seconds before you get the "You are leaving the battlefield" message.

It was good while it lasted but it got old quickly...mind you, I remember being awestruck the first time I played the Rhen Var level with the AT-AT. Playing as the Rebels, running onto the icefield for the first time and seeing the massive head of a Walker come out of the 'fog'...that was a 'wow' moment for me lol.

lol, I've played the same level as the Empire.

I've really got the game now it's cool, but not that hard

Alucard · **Sun Feb 27, 2005 9:53 am**

that's true even on the hardest difficulty it's easy at times

Cap. Proton · **Mon Feb 28, 2005 8:35 am**

Yep Hard on Battlfront is the same as Easy on Elite Force

This game is one of the best in it class. i play it all the time, its a great game.

I read somewhere, possibly on www.theforce.net that there are plans (though no official announcement yet as far as I know) for a sequel to the game which will feature a greater emphasis on the vehicular side - making levels bigger for example. One of the things I read was that they were considering having a level set on the Trench Run on the Death Star.

If they go ahead with it, it'll be one to look forward to I reckon.

Mind you, I still wish they'd release KOTOR on the PS2 lol.

Just read on www.theforce.net and the Lucasarts forums that a sequel has been confirmed for a release set in November this year.

Apparently the new game will feature space battles and the ability to board capital ships, etc, etc.

Sounds good to me; can't wait!

Alucard · **Fri Apr 01, 2005 12:40 am**

November 1st, sounds like I should check it out. I really hope they through in Jedi in most maps that'll be sweet

I decided this morning that i was going to buy battle front. But after seeing what you guys have said im not too sure. Do you recommend this game?

Is it more like your one person in a group fighting against other people on a planet or there are a few times when your controling your own ship in space?

Cap. Proton · **Fri Apr 01, 2005 11:59 am**

U should buy it, take that from my word, but your not controlling your own starship.

I reckon it depends how big a fan you are. If you're a big fan then go for it - though like others have said, it does get old quite quickly.

I think it's too short, levels are too easy and the levels themselves are too small. Some seem massive at first but after a couple of tries on each level, it all gets...simple.

Having said that, multiplayer is excellent and that element at least offers a lot of re-playability in my book.

If you're a multiplayer guy, go for it. If you don't have any mates (sounds a bit harsh lol) or aren't likely to use the multiplayer, I'd suggest waiting until November and looking at Battlefront 2.

Sonic74205 · **Fri Apr 01, 2005 4:38 pm**

Yeah i think i'll buy it. *sigh* Looks like im going to have to buy some more controllers

starnova · **Fri Apr 01, 2005 5:12 pm**

anyone have tips for the rebel hoth mission, i have tired to use the cable to try to trip the AT-AT but they shoot me down before i even get close

Alucard · **Sat Apr 02, 2005 2:10 am**

I let the AI do that, I concentrate on Sniping most of the time.

I have one. play as the pilot and get in the pilot seat and make a pilot get in the gunner chair thing then fly to the at-at and go low to avoid fire then switch to the gunner chair and fire the tow cable and the pilot you picked up will fly around safly. that works for me.
