The Battle Fields have been disabled for way to long. I am pretty sure there is no intention to turn them back on.. Here is the reason I ask this in the Jedi forums.
Those Veterans that played when the battle fields were active (or atleast the one I have talked to) had great fun in them. I believe that they would be a great place for us jedi to pvp and pve. This would give use somewhere besides places like Theed to do this. It would also let people choose to enter rather then popping up on the massive dueling in large cities. The old system was pretty much set so that you would choose a faction to fight for and the base was the object to control/destroy. The main changes that I could possibly see is thatthe NPCs involved would need to be beefed up alot in order to make the battle field a challenge. I just strongly feel that this would give us something else to do and still involve pvp or pve... as well as addsome of the old fun we had back into the game.

I wouldn't mind seeing them back up again, they are pretty fun when you're neutral to, but I guess the main reason they took them out was lack of interest, but I don't realy know.

was freakin insaine man... just...HUGE battles... I've been in a few player ran battles lately, but none of them lives up to what went on in the battlefields.. And csrs would be watching it too, and spawn those huge-ass ATAT's (not the smaller atst's) mind you, and all havok would break loose. Hundreds, if not thousands of players...
Low-end systems took quite a kick, tho.
But blaster fire EVERYWHERE, then there were only a handfull of jedi on each side, but I mean the blasterfire was just wizzing everywhere... that's one thing I'll never forget..just TONS..... Was like the episode 2 geonosian battle, only much more intense.
I'm tellin ya man, freakin insaine...
But that was back pre-cu... Don't think quite as many people who enjoyed pvp like that are around much anymore.

Oh man, that sounds so cool
That's waht I thought this game was gonna be like. Big battles and immersive story. I thought you were really gonna feel part of the empire versus alliance. I'd almost forgve SOE all the bugs and nerfed professions if they could put something like that back in the game.
How cool would it be if you were an overt rebel to get a system message "Dantooine rebel base under attack! All units report in" and when u got there it was being attacked by AT-ATs and npcs and players. F**k the timeline it would be so cool fighting next to jedi defending the bases.

It was a player vs NPC battlefield. Course if the opposite faction showed up it became pvp too. Some really good times.

Belive they were removed because they were buggy as hell and might have been borken on one of the early publishes. they didn't feel like fixing it I guess

Yes, battlefields greatly added (and would again add to) the Star Warsy-ness of the game. AT_ST's, ST's, rebeltroops all slugging it out...
That was the GCW for me, not this lame-o combatant/Special forces crap.
THe GCW has degenerated into a hide-and-seek game.
If you wanna fight , you shouldbe able to go to a battlefield and join in..I miss it
