battlefront is pretty awesome

gh0st · Sep 19, 2004

my friend picked it up at best buy today (for xbox, unfortunatly), as it was on the shelves early for some reason. i played for awhile with him, and it is a shitload of fun. im definatly going to buy this for pc. it gives me a warm fuzzy feeling knowing lucasarts doesnt have to **** everything they touch up.

CrazyHarij · Sep 19, 2004

You can't believe how fun it's to hear that, I'm very anxious for this game but I was afraid it was crap

B.Calhoun · Sep 19, 2004

its in stores early?? wow. and i cursed some guy off that sent me a PM asking if i wanted to play SW:B. WHOOPS! i thought he was messing with me.

I've heard some good things about it, I also heard that it was better on the consoles than on PC though

. Thats what all the reviews say anyway.

gh0st · Sep 19, 2004

heres some pictures of the xbox version: http://f1.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/jh...=&.done=http://photos.yahoo.com/ph//my_photos

thank god the pc version will look better

B.Calhoun · Sep 19, 2004

woah! i saw a server that had a maximum of 24 players. i thought it was 16max for consoles and 32 max for PC

We plan to support at least 16 human players over the Internet for the PS2 and Xbox versions, possibly more with dedicated server support. For the PC, we plan to support at least 32 human players over the Internet. For LAN games, we plan to support 32 players for the PS2 and Xbox versions, and 64 for the PC version. Of course, the total number of players for any single game will vary with network conditions and hardware performance.

im sure it will be possible to have more than 32 on a strong server. 32 seems a bit small... or maybe not, the maps arent huge.

So on the xbox, you played in a 24 person server?

no, he hadnt set up his xbox live account. ive never played it online, just against the "samrt" bots. those arent my pictures, someone from the bf forums posted those.

Kohman77 · Sep 19, 2004

bleh

early sellers... and now it's all over the internet too. damn pirates. yargggg!

B.Calhoun · Sep 19, 2004

Oh ok. But you can obvisouly see on the picture that is says a max 24 person server. This would mean that PC would support more.

Kohman77 · Sep 19, 2004

pc supports 64 person LAN matches and 32 person internet
atleast i think so...

PC: 32 on the internet, 64 on a LAN.

oh. Damn they should have atleast 64 on internet for PC

it should be very possible, if not there will definatly be mods for it. the game doesnt seem that demanding, so id say that there may even be options for going above 32, like cs source.

ign spent the whole time review AI.. which is about as stupid as giving bf42 a 7.5 for its shitty AI.

BRODIEMAN2k4 · Sep 20, 2004

I heard PC is the worst version though

Well it will surly gather a crowd (its Star Wars after all), but 32 players is just... weak. After playing JO I wont settle for 32 players in an online game unless its got really small maps (CS style, BF1942 city maps, etc). How are Battlefront maps?

NeLi · Sep 20, 2004

Not getting this one. Never was a big Sarwars fan after all.

Maxi · Sep 20, 2004

I've never heard of this game... what's it about? got any pics?

Varg|Hund · Sep 20, 2004

Any demo?

Dalamari · Sep 20, 2004

Why in one of those pics does a raider have a lightsaber?

Same here, I'm a big Star Wars and Battlefield fan, it could be the greatest game of all time for me

Got to buy the DVD set as well, and have a SW themed weekend hehe.

burnzie · Sep 20, 2004

i tried the ps2 version just now and wasnt thrilled, i dont like playing that sort of game with a controller. id probably like the pc version.

Loke · Sep 20, 2004

simmo · Sep 20, 2004

poseyjmac · Sep 20, 2004

GunFridge · Sep 21, 2004

I am eager to try it too. On the web Page under downloads it says
PC Demo

I haven't payed attention to Lucasarts Alot since JO (prolly cause thats about when I started playing Half-Life) but I recall them being good about thier demos for some reason. Demo mebby tommaro?

Gunner · Sep 21, 2004
