I headshot people regularly with the Imperial sniper zoomed or not. Could be a combination of lag, low framerate, etc. but I know I can headshot someone with Imperial and I'm next-to-positive that it doesn't work with Rebel....  [Read More]

1. Actually it becomes a competition of who has the better leading aim. I think the strafing is fine. Probably should be slowed down a little for realism but not by much. 2. Yes they definitely need to change some accuracy issues. Prone and crouch a...  [Read More]

Because of the way the server browser now works, it's hard to find the best server to join. It's all random, atleast mostly. Since they don't auto-update themselves, you have to go through the list and random pick ones to update. It lists every serve...  [Read More]

It would be nice if the version number were listed in a corner of the main menu. I know stuff like this was probably taken out for console Beta versions but it's nice for PC players to know what version they are currently patched to, in case we aren'...  [Read More]

Once updating to v. 1.00a, Server list will not allow you to "update" individual servers after you have attempted to join a full session. If you go into server browser, join a full server (or one that is full but doesn't appear to be) you g...  [Read More]

Joining with third-party programs does not ever seem to be successful. Not exactly sure what the problem is but it just usually seems to time-out. I have experienced this with XFire and people are regularly reporting it for ASE, XFire, and Gamespy Br...  [Read More]

There are already some large enough maps (Kamino, Theed, Hoth) but the flying distance definitely needs to be enlarged. Patches can CHANGE maps. But they'd only have to change a few because that requires you to redownload the map (everyone IS on broa...  [Read More]

Multiple times now I've loaded the game via XFire. It always seems to 1) not connect to the server I tell it to (server times out, I go to server browser choose another one) and 2) crash at some point either in-game or out of game. Anyone else exper...  [Read More]

Heh, doesn't sound like a bug any QA Department would come across. Could be a conflict with the VoIP network code or something, being supplanted by the PC connection somehow. Just a prognostication. Doesn't sound like they'd bother fixing it either....  [Read More]

The selecting a profile should be gotten rid of. It should auto-select the one I last selected, as you suggested. I've been meaning to mention this but it's low on the totem poll. Having to choose it just puts another barrier in the way of me doing w...  [Read More]

More voice communication would be nice... perhaps I'm just not making use of the current audio commands (F1-12 I think) but very little communication happens in games. Voice chat would drastically improve this though....  [Read More]

Yes, this is a huge problem on maps like Dune sea, Mos Eisley and the like. On Dune sea, a person in a Rebel tank can sit behind the Imperial start point and waste people with rockets/lazers. I suggested this and I hope they fix spawn killing somehow...  [Read More]

Yeah, if I hear you right then you're referring to the fact that clients can't reconnect to the server again and that's because servers are taking 2 minutes to load hte next map. So when you hit "Done" and relog onto the server, it times ou...  [Read More]

Improve the reticle for sniper rifles that are fully zoomed in. It should be 4 thin (and transparent) lines that terminate to a small point rather than a huge circle that sorta shows you where your shot might go. At range I can fill the reticle with...  [Read More]

1. I totally disagree. It's totally on pace with Battlefield games and is determined by the number of type of players ina server. More people = more action. I love the pace. This won't change so... "Twitch reflexes and who can strafe the fastest...  [Read More]
