STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT 3 AT E3

[BurzaP]

There has been more info recently. It was said that:
1. It won't be Battlefront 3
2. It won't be SW:Battlefield either because it would be too boring (agree)
3. It will be reboot of the series with elements that are characteristic for Battlefront but mainly it will be something fresh.
4. First person perspective is more than likely.

We have to remember that they do now basically sketches of the game, nothing more, so everything can be changed (I'm looking at fpp..). Important thing is we probably get something that will eventually replace swbf2.

If all they have is 1st person perspective, I'll just plan all my attacks from their right side, so they wont see me coming. Naming it Battlefront 3 is a no-brainer. They really need some BF2 veterans to give them some insight on that stuff.

They probably won't do that - they stand to gain a lot more from people going "oh dude star wars fps thats sick nasty bro 420 it up" than the small amount of people still playing this game.

Hopefully this engine will handle lag a lot better than the engine used in SWBF2, where characters jump around like crazy even at low levels of lag at long range.

I can never snipe at long range, and yet on certain levels I always seem to get nailed.

The more I hear, the more excited I get, but it is tempered by the fact that the publisher is EA. I have learned to expect failure from them.

Battlefield 3 mostly had great hit registry, except when you had people with over 100 ping in the server. BF3's netcode is a hybrid server-client sided hit detection system, which, although great for consoles, heavily favors high pingers (150+). This causes you to die when you're clearly behind cover very frequently. Hopefully they sort this issue out, or just phase out ps3 and xbox 360 versions entirely, since those things are so outdated.

The days of pandering to PC audiences are long gone.

I hate xbox and playstation... nothing like keyboards and clicking!

They will use Frostibe 3.0

@Wd - they actually stated it's not Battlefront 3 but Battlefront. Reboot. But I agree, e.g. I have never played in swbf2 in first person view, maybe once for seeing how it is but imo that sucks.

Hmmm. I have been playing first person from gitgo. Third person was too distracting. (rebel sniper's ass is so cute ). I should be good to go.

I am super exited for this! I just hope for the reboot they do not change it so drastically that it loses its old school fan base (us). Oh yeah........... I'm back!
