Urchin I think you'll always find players online to play with. Was 42 sites open last nite with many more filled.. Not a great onling sim game but not bad either, Now if it was 1000's or like AH that could be fun. Now I just go play sniper when i play fun to piss of guys like ah guys being vulched..........

Once they release the patch that fixes vehicle control, you'll the the numbers rise. Other than that, Battlefront is a blast to play. I enjoy it a lot more than BF:42 or BF:V but then I am a nerd and love anything Star Wars. Just wish they'd hurry up and fix the vehicle control so I can run over Ewoks in an AT-ST.

Is that bug purely on the PC version? Does it effect the Xbox version too?

After testing that addon to star wars galaxies, I cancelled my 2 star wars accounts. It was that bad. I was expecting xwing vs tie also, and its not. AI dumb as dirt, having to go from space to planet after each mission and super slow "twitch" play. Just awful.

Just rented it for xbox this morning. Im not a big fan of Star Wars, biut it was a pretty impressive game. Beat the entire game on hard in under a few hours, sad.

[NERDMODE] The Victory I (not yet seen in a movie) was the last star destroyer able to go into an atmosphere. Victory II's, along with the entire Imperial class (the ones from the original movies) have no repulsorlifts and can't go into an atmosphere. [/NERDMODE]

The single player mode is pretty much just there so you can practice before you go online and play, so of course the limited single player campaign will be easy to finish.

Don't know if the Xbox version has the same troubles with the vehicle control. I don't think the problem is so much as a result of a bug but more from poor design.

no ewoks are only in the single player, and you cant play as them

. I havent reached that lvl yet because i droped SW:BF to play Rome.

some of the battles are awsome in this game, best part for me is the visuals of the game. When you see your team upahead and you see lasers flying all around them........i might have to go play another round!

I like playing as the droids.

Someone call Lucas and tell him he ****ed up! Tarmac SAYS SO!

AT-ATs are fun.

OK here's what I can't stand. Playing in single player mode following the "storyline" I start out in the droid army and by the end of the campaign I'm no longer a storm trooper and such and now fighting on the other side.

The game play is pretty cool though.

Wouldn't the air friction generated be destructive?

Chairboy · « **Reply #28 on:** October 03, 2004, 03:41:42 PM »

The friction is only destructive if you enter the atmosphere too fast. The reason current spacecraft need heat shields is because they have no way to drop 15,000 mph worth of velocity before they touch air because of limited fuel. Presumably, the ships of star wars can slow down as much as they want, they seem to have all the delta-v they need for maneuvering. An SD could theoretically slow to a hundred miles per hour and come down to land at its leisure if it had repulsorlifts or big wings to keep it flying. But, since that model apparently doesn't, there's an apparent discrepency. If that ship is in orbit, it shouldn't look that big. If it's in the atmosphere, it should either be falling or somehow using the wedge shape as a lifting surface, but since it's supposedly not designed for atmospheric flight, that would seem difficult.

(who am I kidding, I have no way of turning off nerdmode. )

Perhaps their atmosphere is thinner.... or someone is using the force on the SD to bring it down!
