We're not really going to have Wookiees on Geonosis, are we?

JackTHorn · October 3, 2018 4:35AM

Of course we are. No one at EA cares if the game looks ridiculous or doesn't feel like Star Wars. Just look at the heroes in the wrong factions, the rainbow clones, and the sad lack of any decent amount of skins or customization.

But hey, soon the hero-obsessed players will get discounted 8v8 heroes on GA (more than the amount of heroes at once in fragging HvV, by the way). So burn it all down, who cares any more.

If anyone is listening or cares, which I doubt:

We need Republic Enforcers to become Galactic Marines, or something like that.

Kenobi_Dude · October 3, 2018 4:36AM

Agreed

All units on both sides will be replaced wookies. A wookie civil war on geonosis

Toddyrocket · October 3, 2018 5:20AM

Wookiees will be there
I'm surprised SA doesn't have them in some beefed up starship as Enforcers

WildSpace · October 3, 2018 5:36AM

A possible solution

You are right though, the heroes are getting too much attention. Have been for awhile to please the HvV must always play hero crowd.

NomiSunstrider · October 3, 2018 9:09AM

Ofc we will have wookiees. Were you expecting special forces?

WodiQuix · October 3, 2018 12:10PM

I'd at least like to see ARC troopers on Kamino and Geonosis. Galactic Marines would be very cool to see, too!

Kyloren421 · October 3, 2018 12:15PM

Burn the wookies. Dont make cheap heroes already cheaper. And for the sake of all that is holy dont make reinforcements(wookies) cheaper. Make heroes 6&8,000 again. Make us work for it. Not this mess where there are good players missing out on heroes cuz we’re too busy playing the game to worry about if we have the points for a hero. I know this a casual game but geez, whats next, gonna give everyone Finn’s aimbot for a weekend?

Admiral_Xen · October 3, 2018 12:16PM

Wookiees should have been map decorations (like the Ewoks on Endor) rather than playable units.

-in the background fighting on Kashyyyk (or as AI units like in pandemic Battlefront)
-in the mines on Kessel
-as janitors mopping the floor of the Death Star

and maybe a Wookiee hunt mode ala Ewoks.

bfloo · October 3, 2018 12:28PM

ok, how do you complain about rainbow cloans and the lack of customization?

I don't like the rainbow party either, but I don't care much about customization.

I'm still hoping that ARC Troopers will get their own place as a new reinforcement. They don't really fit as lumbering extra-heavies, anyway.

Republic Commandos fit okay, but are much more rare than the Enforcer is. There are, what, 100 Commandos, maybe at most 1000, out of millions of clones? There's 5 Enforcers at once at the end of GA, a quarter of the whole team.

A Clone Flametrooper wouldn't replace the Wookiee well, but would make a good counterpoint to First Order Flametroopers. But then, those are mostly needed to counter the Resistance Wookiees.

The same way you can go into a restaurant and complain that one of the three items on the menu is Fruity Pebbles. You don't only have the right to complain if the menu is empty.

They'll be like the ewoks on endor for GA.

AzorAhai · October 4, 2018 3:46PM

Appropriate replacements for Wookiee Enforcers on maps where it makes more sense would be a huge, nearly universal hit, I think. I don't foresee many players lamenting the loss of the Wookiee Warrior on a few maps.

Of course they are going to be there. Do you guys really think they will create new Enforcer just for this map? There are more important things to worry about.

Agreed. I think the Republic Enforcers should either be:

ARC Heavy Gunners:

or Galactic Marines:

Pretty pathetic if you ask me. Maybe one day they'll become a reinforcement.

Thought so, disappointed. Well ewoks eventually became playable, fingers crossed.

t3hBar0n · October 4, 2018 11:37PM

Unfortunately since EA decided to only make a single enforcer for the rebellion, they have no choice unless they remove enforcers from the mode or create some new enforcers... which I sincerely doubt.

JackTHorn · October 7, 2018 9:29PM

Just had a tiny epiphany - Galactic Marine Grenadier!

Though I might still prefer the ARC Heavy Gunner...

Darth_Vapor3 · October 7, 2018 9:42PM

Still, if any era were to represent Wookiees, it’s the PT. Yoda has that special relationship with them and then afterwards they were enslaved by the Empire. We saw them in full vigor and glory in the movies in battle as a species in the PT. So realistically, if they were to be replaced in any eras, it would be the OT and ST. It makes the most sense canonically to have developed, powerful WW in the PT era. Just saying...

JackTHorn · October 7, 2018 11:11PM

I would say either PT and not OT, or OT and not PT. As I understand it, the Wookiees were fairly isolated until the end of the Clone Wars when they were enslaved. And since the Clones have the most other options beside Wookiees, I tend go with removing the PT Wookiee.

Llunots · October 7, 2018 11:20PM

Of course there will be wookies on Geonosis. I don't see why people complain when we have wookies on Hoth lol.

angelob6660 · October 8, 2018 12:23AM

They might surprise us with a different enforcer than the wookies when Geonosis arrives.

I reality I believe the wookies are staying until the new class units comes out.

Sentinels got scrapped based on the latest data mines
A PT enforcer replacement is the best alternative and the ARC Heavy Gunner definitely deserves the spot
It would be pretty great if they did surprise us though!

GenxDarchi · October 8, 2018 2:50AM

Wookies on Genosis is probably goona happen @JackTHorn , considering we’ve been asking for new LS enforcers, and DICE seems to be ignoring us. I am almost 100% sure that Wookies are gonna be on Genosis, because if you look at their track record, it’s obvious that it’s gonna happen. They take the easiest route every time.

JackTHorn · October 12, 2018 3:31PM

I'd still much rather see ARC Heavy Gunners, though.

Even just as an appearance change, they can function the same.

Wookiees on Geonosis is going to be so lame. But I should have expected this, it fits with the other decisions they've made.

Yeah, Wookies being there is just going to look off. Just sorta sickening.

Admiral_Xen · October 12, 2018 5:18PM

are wookiees cloneable in SW?

Because I don't know why they even bothered with a bunch of Boba Fetts when Yoda could've just showed up on Geonosis and airdropped a billion Chewbaccas instead.

Maybe Palpatine nixed that idea when he realised that it only takes 1 WW with Overload up to easily defeat him.

Yeah I mean why use a bunch of Boba Fetts when you can have something that kills Boba Fetts in 2 shots.

I am pretty sure every race is cloneable. In the new canon comics by Disney-Marvel The empire made giant clone trooper Hutt cyborg things.
