I agree with the planetary battlefields idea, that way you add a few planets like Hoth, where rebels had to take a ship from a rebel base to a rebel base on planet, imperials did the same from an imperial base, and once on planet all personnel were automaticly switched to overt. None of this running around in the back woods and suddenly finding yourself in a battlefield.

Another option would be to have imperial and rebel entrances to underground battlefields, similar to the Warrens, but factionally aligned.

Isn't that kind of the point? That being a Jedi is VERY tough and VERY dangerous?

SWEEEEEET!!! I've been Master Commando for awhile and have been wanting to try it out on the Battle Field. Can't wait!

TH, how come we don't get an "In-Concept" thread for this one?

How can we add input if it's basically been decided upon already? *boggle*

It wouldn't take anything more then to make battlefield death have no penalty and non-bf deaths have major penalties

I.e 10% uninsured decay 2% insured decay vs none on battlefield

also let jedi fight and die with no penalties on bf's

if jedi don't die on battlefields would definitely make the bf more interesting.. I've never even been in one yet... =/

I never even found a battlefield until after the vehicle publish went live and the battlefields were turned off.

Since Battlefeilds cost us nothing, how about fixing Turret and HQ exploits first.

I don't agree with this. YOU decided you wanted to be a Jedi knowing full well what the gameplay would be like. Now that you've become one, you cry about that same gameplay.

Caveat emptor, buddy. You made your bed, now either lie in it or be quiet.

Just make the Battlefields Like a mix of Planet Side & Battlefield 1942 and everyone will love them!

P.S. F the Jedi! If you die you die and If your scared to die you shouldn't be a Jedi!!!!!!!!!

Hey that rhymes!

That one is easy... at least the LOW fps...

At 512MB of ram I was getting 12-14 Fps on my Athlon XP 3000+ system with a Geoforce FX5600 256Mb card, and 120 Gig SATA Hd

At 1024MB of Ram... I get 25-35 fps on the same rig. Do the math... the minimum specs (256 mb of ram) is a joke... 512mb should be the min and even then you thrash your HD like nobody's business... at 1024 I can actually ALT+TAB out of game to answer an icq.

If this is going to be a battlefield then you should not be able to come back in after you are knocked out. Also the battlefield should have a start time and then a time when nobody else can join. Then after that time it will just be a fight to the last man. If the Imps or Rebs can get more guys to show then that is what happens. Its a war. Also I think that you should be able to warp to a list of say three cloning centers that will randomly pop up to allow the Jedi to escape being killed while coming out of the battlefield.

Does Lucas Arts know you closed the battle fields? Because they're website livethesaga.com has a whole section on battlefields. Sounds an awful lot like false advertisement.
