Media Star Wars Battlefront 2

[koonfasa]

I just bought this for $US34, got back home and was told it was down the road for $27.

 

[DioramaMaker]

Until it's $20 or it's guaranteed there are no game altering microtransactions returning, I'm not buying. Which sucks because I loved star fighter assault in the beta.

 

[Vitron5]

The multiplayer DLC is good but that Resurrection single player stuff was even worse than the single player story from the main game lol

Awful. And that's saying something as the single player in this game is terrible. Idea is a boring character.

 

[koonfasa]

But she's a TIE pilot!

And the Corvus is awesome!!!

 

[user 15061]

Getting kind of annoyed when trying to use Explosive Sentry and teammates walk in front of the rounds. Gotten worse since Christmas ��������

 

[GodzillaSpawn]

Thought that seemed to happen more and more. Kind of getting over it.

Actually Oumuamua looks a lot like Admiral Holden's cruiser over the Corvus.

We need a patch, it's been 4 weeks.

Good thing I have ACO to play. Hopefully one next week.

 

[ZaCHw117]

Some MASSIVE changes coming in soon, devs are also teasing next season which seems to be the long awaited clone wars/PT season.

 

[jye4ever]

Probably Naboo green fields, Geonosis and Coruscant Jedi Temple plus Obi-Wan’s Starfighter and PT Obi-Wan and Mace.

I also want the OT B Wing bombers in their PT DLC lol

 

[ZaCHw117]

It's gonna be Grievous and Obi-Wan for sure, maybe some more reinforcement troops. (Cody, Rex, droidekas). Utapau, hopefully Jedi Temple and Corucsant for starfighter. Hoping to see jedi starfighters as hero ships and maybe a Jango version of the S1.

 

[PermaG]

Gawd I hope Grievous does not suck.

Probably one of my most fav SW characters.

Doubt it, but wonder if he can crawl on walls / ceilings like in the cartoon.

 

[darthviper107]

People already found Grievous in the game files, untextured but the model is there.

 

[BadMuthaDude]

Patch coming tomorrow. What will it fix? What will it break? All will be revealed Tuesday!

 

[jye4ever]

Hope they fix the broken post starfighter assault cinematics they’re gorgeous lol

You guys ever notice an ION launcher bug where you can launch, but keep your launcher for more?

So in maps where you have to ion the MTT or whatever to stop it, to unlock it, to shoot it...I use a heavy with ION torp card.

Nearly 100% of the time (sometimes I dont pay attention or die, so I dont notice), it seem I can "spawn" a new launcher at my feet.

So I charge up the Launcher and shoot. As I am shooting, I am spamming "Q" to equip and use my Torp.
Lots of the time I see a new launcher at my feet after I do this.
I recall one time, I basically picked it up and shoot the Launcher again. Yet, the second time, I have no more Torp to trigger it again.

I am wondering because watching allies the other night, I swear I seen it happen to someone else, as Officer, not Heavy.

So I am wondering if you spam / swap instantly so another weapon / ability RIGHT after you shoot the launcher, if this more common than I think.
