Battlefront 3
« on: April 8, 2006, 10:08 PM »
Customized clone army's.  You pick whcih Battalion you want to play as  EI 501st, 212th

Also, play as more jedi, and bring back the Dune Sea, Rhen Var, and Bespin. 
AT the same time, expand on some missing things, like Ord Mandell and the bounty Husters after Han Solo and bring in Lando and bespin security ect,  this is a start, what do you want to see?

I'd like to be able to "Create your own Hero" characters.  Maybe by earning points you can do that.

Here's what I'd like to see...

-The return of the Dune Sea, Rhen Var, and Cloud City maps.
-Snowtrooper armor for the Imperials on Mygeeto. I hated having to fight as a regular stormtrooper when I played on the Mygeeto map on BF2.
-More falling snow on the Mygeeto map.
-Different clone legions for different planets, like playing as the 212th on Utapau, Bacara's Snow Troops on Mygeeto, Gree's Scout Troops on Kashyyyk, etc.
-New maps: Saleucami, Senate Rotunda, Carida, Kalist VI, Korriban, Manaan, Malachor V, and Coruscant (Skyline).
-Juggernauts as a playable vehicle.

I would like to buy more items. I finish the Galactic Conquest portion again today on BF2 and had over 3,000 credits left. I already had 3 fleets. I'd like to get upgraded armor that you can actually see on the characters. More weapons, Big weapons, Vehicle purchases, more character selection that does not have to unlocked.

Planet and Atmospheric specific troops. No more of this bull**** saying that the 501st was in every single major conflict of the war. Have snowtroopers for cold maps, have camo rebels for forested maps...

More expansive maps with a higher flight cieling.

Much more extensive Conquest campaign, with many more fleets, and more flight lanes. Give some fleets advantages and disadvantages.

How about the ability to fight as local resistance to keep your enemy busy? Gungans and Naboo Troops, Wookies, Ewoks, Sandpeople, etc.

Yes, I would like to purchase a Super Star destroyer, with five wings of TIE Interceptors, and troops lots and lots of troops oooooowww.. I would like to purchase a cloning facility. And guns, Big guns, I would like to attack Hoth with 6 At-At's at one time instead of the pathethic 2.

I'm not a HUGE fan of Battlefront overall, I find it to be too MP focused, and BF2 felt like a bit of a ripoff to me overall.

If I were to improve upon it though I'd try to focus on the ground combat and drop space combat completely.  They tout it as the next greatest thing in SW gaming every time a BF is released and so far the aerial combat has blown goats to put it mildly.  Leave that to the Rogue Squad series where it belongs.

Hell, if they could combine foot combat of BF with flight combat of RS they'd be sitting pretty, but that seems somewhat impossible at hte moment.

Anyway, another huge gripe of mine has been troop types...  Rebel Troopers need to be just RFT's, Commandoes need to be a specialist trooper you can get, not standard...  RFT's should don poncho's and trenchcoats for environment-specific looks like Brad mentioned (Camo, etc.), and Hoth outfits for any cold weather environment.  Drop Pilots as a character then...  Add techs if you want someone to build something as an "Engineer" or something.

Same goes for Stormtroopers...  I can bite on Scouts being Snipers, but beyond that, they boggled the Clones tremendously in BF2 I thought.  If you're playing a Mygeeto Map you should have Galactic Marines ONLY, with their own variations of each trooper type...  Utapau you play as Cody's troop types, etc., etc...

It's a simple matter of laziness on the game's designers not to incorporate that accuracy really.

An increase in troops would be ideal too.  Levels in BF2 were terribly short and didn't feel epic in their scale.  SW is known for big battles, and they need to stretch gaming to its limits with that in mind I believe.

Lastly...  The engine for the game is fairly sound, and while it's easily an MP focused game I think it has more potential for a SP game.  I think they need to make a SP focused Battlefront where the MP comes second because it's quite simply "easy" to add MP to games, but making a good SP game with cohesive storyline isn't so much so.

Of course, I could always just hope for good new SP games to come out, but the SW gaming horizon is REALLY bleak.  I hope E3 has something good to show us because so far not much else appears to be coming.

Star Wars is sorely lacking a GOOD tactical team-based 1st person shooter though like Ghost Recon, or whatnot.  Add a little more wide-open action to it, and it'd be a fantastic take on that genre niche.

Anyway, I repeat...  Drop the aerial/space combat.  It blows and was a dead spot in both BF's.

My Ideas:
1. Make the clone troopers look more appropriate for the environments meaning not just from the 501st legion.  On Mygeeto there should be the galactic marines (the clones who looked like the snowtroopers in The Empire Strikes Back) and maybe even some white clone troopers, on Utapau there should be orange clones, on Felucia there should be yellow clones, on Kashyyyk there should be green clones, and on Mustafar there should be red clones.
2. Bring back all the environments from the first Battlefront, which the second Battlefront left out like Bespin and Rhen Var.
3. Be able to destroy the shield generator on Endor like in BF1.
4. Add more environments like the Coruscant senate chamber, the Naboo Theed Palace, Otoh Gunga, the Trade Federation Droid control ship, Mos Espa, the Jedi Academy on Yavin 4, the Imperial Super Star Destroyer Executor, the Jundland wastes, the Geonosis Arena, Hypori, and the Invisible Hand.
5. Give Princess Leia her lightsaber from the Expanded Universe.
6. Add more assaults and space battles.
7. On the Hoth level, give Luke Skywalker a harpoon gun so he can follow the technique from The Empire Strikes Back.
8. Make Anakin Skywalker a playable hero for the Republic.
9. Add more heroes like Luke Skywalker's wife, Mara Jade Skywalker, Kit Fisto, Padme Amidala Skywalker, Asajj Ventress, Durge, Qui-Gon Jinn, and Kyle Katarn.
10. Heroes in space.
11. Make the emperor the playable hero for the CIS on Mustafar, not Darth Maul.
12. Have two heroes on each side for some of the maps.

The maps that okay to keep with one hero for each side are Mustafar, Jabba's Palace, Kamino, Felucia, Hoth, Kashyyyk, the Death Star, Utapau, and Mygeeto. For Polis Massa, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda for the Republic, Count Dooku and the emperor for CIS, Darth Vader and the emperor for the Empire, and Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia for the Rebel Alliance.  For Endor, Darth Vader and Boba Fett for the Galactic Empire, and Han Solo and Luke Skywalker for the Rebel Alliance.  For Geonosis, Mace Windu and Obi-Wan Kenobi for the Republic and Count Dooku and Jango Fett for CIS.  For Coruscant, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Mace Windu for the Galactic Republic, Darth Maul and Count Dooku for CIS, Darth Vader and the emperor for the Empire, and Luke Skywalker and Yoda for the Rebel Alliance.  For Dagobah, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda for the Republic, Count Dooku and General Grievous for CIS, Darth Vader and Boba Fett for the Galactic Empire, and Luke Skywalker and Yoda for the Rebel Alliance.  For Yavin 4, Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi for the Republic, Asajj Ventress and Count Dooku for the CIS, Darth Vader and Boba Fett for the Galactic Empire and Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade Skywalker for the Rebel Alliance.  For Naboo, Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi for the Republic, Darth Maul and the emperor for the CIS, Darth Vader and the emperor for the Empire and Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia for the Rebel Alliance.  More coming soon.

Which of my ideas do you like? Bringing back the environments from Battlefron 1, which Battlefront 2 left out from? The clone troopers looking more appropriate for their environments (Not only from the 501st legion)?  Luke Skywalker having a harpoon gun on the Hoth Level? Any?

Forgive me if I'm not following the terms of service but does anyone here in the forums like any of my ideas for a Star Wars Battlefront 3?
