I say again, it gives them an advantage. In the world of video games, we like to make things fair. Some people like first person, some like third person. Some people are Christian, some people are Muslims. Lets say, theres a Muslim and a Christianplaying say wheel of fortune. The Muslim uses third person, he has no disadvantages. The Christian is firstperson, if he makes a mistake, they blindfold him until he runs from the studio and gets the blindfold off. While the blindfold is being taken off, the Muslim goes and gets 3 extra spins or takes 3 extra CPs that were unguarded. Do you understand now why while it would be cool, it is totaly unfair?

On a side note, this was not ment to offend anyone, I just pulled those religions out because they are the 2 biggest monotheistic religions, I have nothing against either of them or any of the other religions except scienctology because their stupid morons.

Woot! Down with Scientologee! And keep on spelling it wrong!

We all know Geinosis sucks, and... did you mean night vision googles? Yeah, the commandos have that, but we were talking about making comanders/commandos unplayable hero-like people so they could give orders to you. But there could also be night troopers on some of the levels, particualarly dark. You could choose stuff about the weather, like day/night, and how fast you want the light/weather to change. Or you can just turn weather off altogether if it's getting on your nerves.

Free Radical has already announced there "Secret Project" with Lucas Arts. Since they specialize in first-person shooters, the only two possibilities could be Republic Commando 2 or Battlefront 3, unless it's some new game.

What about Dark Forces/Jedi Knight?

I would like to see more force powers in use for the Jedi and Sith.

One other thing, I personally think that Anakin Skywalker should be one of the Heros. My reasoning: when he turned he became Darth Vader, and was no longer known as "Anakin Skywalker".

Can I shout "NO JEDIIII!!!!!" for the billionth time?

Seriously, the Jedi are n00btarded to the point that they defeat the point of cohesive teamwork and the whole "grunts win the battle" deal.

OK, maybe there are clans that actually have a team member who's only good as being a "charge into an army and press left-click" spammer...

But no, just no.

Jedi are pretty much the same as if you gave each team in 2142 as an unlockable class, every noob would rush to get that class and it would become what most non-tournament servers end up as, vehicles to get enough points for heroes and then spawn killing the enemy for the rest of the game.

Nah, I think it's more like having a unit in BF2142 that's resistant to blaster fire, moves faster than any ground vehicle, is an instakill to infantry and kills tanks faster than specialist troops and take out dozens of people single-handed.

Any other game would have had people foaming at the mouth in frustration, but because this is "Jedi Wars" (regardless of how little "work" the Jedi do) it seems to be lapped up.

Anyway, that's [END RANT] for now...

We can have some Jedi like they were in BFI, it can be that And commanders, instead of either or. And that would make the jedi look better, too. They could really use some PR, people... but no playing them. Then the whole BF becomes a bad Jedi Academy or something.

Yeah the AI really needs improvement. Maybe they could 'borrow' the dynamic AI from Crysis. Make the singleplayer component of the game as dynamic as Battlefield multiplayer. Its all possible.

Create a more Battlefield 2142 style unlocks/awards system. (Unlockable weapons with every rank achieved, and have actual medals and ribbons as awards, rather than the "regulator" or "frenzy" thing.)

Customisable troop kits. Have the basic kit/class, but be able to add other classes' weapons and equipment to it. Kinda like having a jetpack trooper with detpacks and sniper rifle rather than EMP gun.

A melee attack. Whether it be rifle bash or vibroblade.

More eras and heros. Fight in the Yuzzhan Vong War or the Mandalorian Wars. And be able to choose who the opponent is; i.e. Ever wanted to see how the empire would fare against the YV?

Rather than having the same weapons and kits for each faction, have uniquely different basic and unlockable stuff. Just for more variety.

Pilotable capital ships/cruisers.

Civilian species on planets that play more of a role. For example, fighting alongside one of the factions. Also control over them where applicable.

Everyone who has SWBF2 on the PC should download the Conversion pack 1.8.1. Those guys at gametoast.com say they don't want it advertised until version 2.0.0 comes out but who cares, it's the best mod i've ever downloaded for any game.

Hmmm.How about a few ideas like:

Space maps ideas
1.spawning from frigates.Certainly the i believe the frigates have a small hangar?

2.Capital ships should have a big(likes CIS's) ,or least mutiple hangars.I mean the rest of capital ships it should be battle effecient like CIS's with the ability to launch mutilple ships.

3.Add a Gravity Maintennance System in the capital ship.I mean there has to be such a system that allow the troops to walk in the ship.Destoying this system will cause everyone to float around in the ship.Of course,it should be fixable to maintain gravity on the ship again.

elaborate on what your mean.i dont get it.

another idea

4.add the bridge section in the capital ship(not just makign it existing outside,make it an actual part of the ship you can go to while inside.).If you go there you can see personnel using those turret and missle controls and of course the captain of the ship(if there is one).When a enemy transport comes on board,if you are in the bridge, you can press a button on the console there to instiate door lockdown.I mean comeon! a few turrets and personnel for security of a large ship?Thats not making much sense.Door lockdown will only stop when the person on the bridge stops it.

But if you are an enemy,you can attempt to blast the doors open with a few bomb and missles.And of course if the bridge is destroyed,you wont be able to go to the bridge anymore.

1.) Don't be in such a hurry to post. Type what you want to say, then read it, then re-read it to make sure there are no errors, or at least keep it down to 1 or 2).

2.) This is typing, not writing.

3.) Not everyone who does drugs immediately dies.

I, jawathehutt, and others have asked you several times to please learn how to type, yet you don't listen. So I'll ask you one more time - please use the spell check, or bring out a dictionary, or something.

I know that.

Everyone know that...

Except for the actual makers of Battlefront.

In Star Wars Battlefront: Renegade Squadron, robust customization options replace the class system seen in previous Star Wars Battlefront titles, allowing for millions of possible unique combatants. With weapons, equipment and abilities that players select themselves, no two allies will likely ever look or perform exactly the same.

...If they are putting it in that Rouge Squadron game, they should port it over to BF3 as well. Or better yet, take out that nonsense.

dude i agree with alot of what you said but im just saying 1 of the 2 bad thing i read in that ITS A GAME who cares if the clones didnt fight the droids ITS A GAME and its filled with lava it LOOKS like a BF it like its asking us to fight on it!(PS i also suggest we have more full jedi missions on more levels cuz its so hard to find 1 person in mos eisley so like can we hav more jedi lvls?)

Hi! I'm new here,

Personaly I like all of these ideas but what would make me buy this game the most is if I could create my own Clone Commander. I would give him a jetpack and one of those skirt thingies that Heavy troopers and Snipers have. He would be armed with two chain guns and one would be a secondary weapon so i have the option to fire both similtaniously or individualy. Of course the feature would only be available in offline mode simply because the dude would be way over-powered!

Another thing, more cruisers, controlable cruisers, more AI units per battle and I really like the urban warfare idea and artillery idea as well!

Dont change the subject. These game creators need to know that it is UNFAIR to slap loyal customers in the face with these rumers of not makeing battlefront 3 for PS3. I have been a customer of theirs. I bought all TimeSplitters games from them.

By the way if you go to this page http://www.frd.co.uk/games.php) --- ha what could the top secret game with LucasArts beeee..........???? They mind as well just come out and say it.

These game creators need to know that it is UNFAIR to slap loyal customers in the face with these rumers of not makeing battlefront 3 for PS3. Wow. So you think Free Radical is spreading these rumors to torture their loyal supporters? Seriously, take a look at the page you linked to and you see that every game they've developed or are developing are supported on Playstation. Seems to me like you've gotten yourself all worked up over nothing. If Free Radical is making SW:BF 3 then you can rest assured that the game will be released for PS 3.

They need to make some huge changes in BFIII. BFII was ok but they really screwed it up in some places. Like in there maps. They put in Felucia, Mygeeto, and Polis Massa maps we hardly saw in the movies. Instead they should put in maps like Geonosis Arena and Grievouses Flagship. Space battles were kinda messed up. They were fun at first but its the same thing every time. Instead of having one capitol ship you should have like 10 and have like 15 frigates. And have the ships move around the battlefield like they would in a real space battle. They should also make other objectives for each map like destroy central computer or something like that. THat should happen on land maps to. They should also make the interior of ships larger. Like put all of the critical systems in there. You should also be able to completely destroy capitol ships. On land battles it would be cool if it had 2 layers. Air and land. While the soldiers on land are fighting there would be like three capitol ships in the air with an air battle going on. Another cool thing is to have like a base comand post. You would have to hold this command post or you lose. But the base command posts are guarded by the capitol ships that will shoot down at you. THen there would be 12 or so other command posts between them. So you have to destroy the capitol ships and then capture a lot of command posts just to get to the base command post. Another thing that should be added is leader points. Everytime somebody on your side captures a command post they get their points and then 100 or so points would be given to the commander as leader points. With these points the leader or commander can then like send in new capitol ships or more troops or something along those lines. THere should also be like 10,000 reinforcements on each side so you have to capture the base command post if you want to win. Another cool thing would be to customize characters. Like make your clones orange or something like that. I think you should also be able to make your own maps. Like decide what type of map it is and where the command posts are and then play with them on online play.

But I do not think they should let u fly your ship from space onto the planet u are fighting above. Also they should add more vehicles 4 ground lvls to. they should make the naboo plains lvl just a flat open area with every vehicle. those were some more ideas on swbf3

Would I'd like to see in BF3:
1.Smarter AI of troops in general

2.The ability to have more troops on the field at a time (the battle of Geonosis didn't consist of up to 16 clonetroopers and 16 droids duking it out at a time)

3.Improved Jedi vs. Jedi combat, the whole force power spamming thing really gets old, having some sort of saber system would be nice

4.Expanded use of eras and types of troops when selecting maps to play (like maybe on jedi temple having the ability to make it Jedi/Temple Vanguards vs. clonetroopers, or Jabbas goons vs. rebels on the Jabba map)

5.The ability to do melee attacks like punches or gunwacks (I could've sworn that on the Geonosis level the droids came up and hit me).

6.More damaging guns would be more movie realistic, because having to nail a stormtrooper 6 times to elminate him is unrealistic

7.Have troops have armor as well as health, those stormtroopers don't wear stiff helmets for nothing

8.Some more kinds of star wars weapons
