I remember when my brothers and I, when we were still little kids, found a way to walk outside of the ships. It required pretty precise landed of any given fighter/bomber/mobile base halfway inside and outside of the ship's hangar. You know you did it right when you hop out of the vehicle and you're on the outside of the shield. Course, if you jumped off the ship you were dead af. But you could still walk on the bottom rim of the ship, and if you timed it right and hit just the right spot, you could get onto the other ships (I think this was dependent on the map).

One extremely cheesy way to win every space battle in Galactic Conquest was the sabotage bonus. Every single enemy ship starts out the hangar hamstrung and burning which pretty much ensures your AI will curb-stomp the match every single time.

What I remember about battlefront 2 is... is how epic it was. During the release of the final star wars film, a game called battlefront 2 was discreetly released on ps2. It was a beautiful time. We all remember how it was, the instant action, playing as our favorite heroes or villains, witnessing the end of the republic through the eyes of the 501st. Are there any doubts this was the prime of star wars gaming? Perhaps, but no one has said a word against that idea. Not when 2005 came, not when revenge of the sith released, and not when we booted up battlefront 2 for the first time. Not a word.

Yes, the cover nodes were part of the map, as a level designer on the game I can attest to that. The node was placeable by the level designer, and had range of attraction, direction to face, kneel or stand, weapon, time to stay and direction to leave in. All weighted, so there was some randomness. I personally placed 750 nodes on Endor, 4 on every tree and cover, to face at least four directions and have the right stance for the direction faced.

Are there any other development insights that a level designer might be able to share here?

@Percopius

Жыл бұрын

@@_draxin_0514 Thanks! There are lots of things that are important in level design, but continuing on the subject of cover I mentioned, one thing that is super important in shooters is the synchronization of terrain heights and player character height (in games with explicit cover, as opposed to run and gun games). In games with cover systems, there is normally a set 'half' cover height (you shoot over) that either the normal crouched gunline can shoot over, or the pop up gun line can do the same over the cover (if there is an explicit shoot from cover command). There is also standing cover that behaves the same, except you don't crouch. So there is normally three cover types, crouching, standing and 'round the corner' (at edge of the wall or half cover). It is possible to tie the crouch height to the terrain you are in cover with, allowing variable half cover heights, but most games tend to have a standard cover heights for terrain, and also the player character tends to have the same height when standing and crouching to better mesh with this. The Division 2 has a really well developed system of cover, with an explicit 'go into cover' command, with a lot of control options to fine tune the behavior, and the ability to move along a cover line, and pop up or around with a lot of precision; I really like the implementation. Different game do it differently, but what I mentioned above still holds true to a large extent. The art is where the cover is placed, the distance between covers, and the fire lanes it creates. I'm sure this is well known to most and yourself, but it's worth thinking about and exploring the idea and mechanics of cover, and it can be helpful in playing certain games better as you can deduct this design principle rather easily when you are looking for it.

The golden age of Star Wars games indeed. KOTOR, Bounty Hunter, Republic Commando, and Battlefront were all incredibly good.

The fact that this game let me play as OG clone troopers kept me in a state of euphoria for quite some time. Honorable mention to the Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith games. They weren't as good as the aforementioned, but I still had some solid fun with them.

BF1 was absolutely goated. Superior to 2 in a lot of ways.

They did droidikas so well in Battlefront 2. I remember playing it often in the game, and once you got set up, the opposing players would all scatter to partial cover because you were that strong once your shields were up, perfectly lining up with their strengths and weaknesses from the films.

2005 was one of the greatest years for Star Wars video games ever: in the span of a single year we got Battlefront II, Republic Commando, Lego Star Wars and Episode III.

It pains me how much Disney completely ignored the canonical relevance of Republic Commando and made it except for Delta Squad and Clone Commandoes in general non canon.

I know a bunch of people who really liked being super overpowered in SWBF2, but I always liked the idea that I was just an insignificant trooper on a battlefield way bigger than I would ever be. Biggest problem I had was the 300 kills at the end of the game.

Since yoda is so short, he can crouch under the water and become untouchable by anything but grenades. Then, he can just kill any droids who pass through the water. If none happen to come in, he can use Force Pull to bring them to him.

I have a fond memory when I was younger playing galactic conquest as rebels on Kashyyyk, however I ran out of tickets, but luckily didn't purchase wookies as an units which allowed me to be backed up by them and I sat on the walls sniping and chirping away at the enemy until victory was achieved.

Years later when the pandemic hit, me and my brother would get drunk and play this all night yet again. There was a 2-3 month period where we just drank vodka straight, eat potatoes (we were broke), and played BF2. Over time we tried to play a whole game without dying once. Loved the tension.

Same. It added much more substance to Order 66. The jedi and clones fought and suffered together, so imagine the clones' reaction when they heard that the jedi "betrayed" them and the Republic. They had to battle their feelings and bonds as they put down their former leaders, and there were times when some of them even decided save or hide the people they had come to see as friends.

I would say battlefront 1 and 2 defined my gaming experience as a child and I don’t think anything else’s could rival them. It’s been fun reliving it with your review!

This is quite possibly the highest-quality review of a video game I've ever seen, and I say that completely regardless of whether or not I personally agreed with your overall opinion of the game. Simply put, you were remarkably thorough in your assessment of the game and did a shockingly good job of assessing every important aspect of the gameplay in an informed and objective manner. You were objective and thorough to the point where I couldn't really tell whether you had a positive or negative overall opinion of the game until the very end of the video in spite of how clearly familiar with the game's intricacies you were. You even made sure to put things into proper historical context, which is crucial when assessing an older game. In a world where "professional" video game reviews are a joke (and that's putting it mildly), this is a shining example of what a video game review should be. The only suggestion I can come up with as to how the review might've been improved is if you had made it a bit more clear when you were highlighting positive aspects of the gameplay, as waiting until the very end of the review to affirm your positive overall opinion of the gameplay in conjuction with doing such a thorough job of evaluating the gameplay's flaws might be the reason why some people would hastily (and incorrectly) assume that you were bashing the game.

You could drive the AT-AT to the back of the Hoth map to help out with the objective. You'll put that "All Terrain" to the test during that climb up the hill lol.

I remember spending untold amounts of hours as an engineer playing this and just roll, then shoot, roll, then shoot... out of ammo? drop a pack... roll, then shoot... roll, then shoot lol
