That Specialist rework was disappointing.
Concepts for potential maps:

i guess so
strike sucks and i shouldnt have to not play the game to avoid a badly thought out "event". they should have made it a separate mode.
also: somone who has THAT version of yoda as their avatar, as well as a quote from the PT, you goona sit there and say you like ST better? youre ridiculous man
Yep. The Yoda fight against Palpatine is probably my favorite scene in all of SW. The PT has, without a doubt, the best lightsaber fighting of any trilogy, and has some pretty memorable scenes. However, that doesn't change the fact that it has awful dialogue, a messy plot, poor character development, and bad acting.

The problem is that character develepment and fighting scenes go together. And that's why, while somewhat pretty, prequel fights convey no emotion. If you don't care about the characters, you don't care about the fight. It doesn't matter who wins or loses and you won't find yourself rooting for anyone. Overly choreographed fights also doesn't help.

Find me in HvV, pushing people off of stuff and watching them fall, like a cat.
Jetcamp cargo was a better mode tbh. You got the very rare round where neither team employed troll tactics, that almost reminded you of the glory of the 2015 version of the mode.
HU is just turbo cancer every round by design.
Only reason its popular is the bottom feeders can get heroes in a mode outside of HvV (where they get dunked on immediately) and kill like 2 troopers before death by spam.

Fair enough. Currently I'm just enjoying GA by running around and punching people out as Specialist. It's like HvV but I never run out of stamina!
Last night, doing that, I ended up with enough points to get a couple heroes, so I picked Finn (who I've never used) and spent the rest of the match running around "Big Dealing" the biggest groups I could find. Once I get better at actually shooting people, I may feel the same way.
I have all this skill I picked up in HvV that I can never use, because up until the last couple days, nearly every single time I get a hero, the game ends 45 seconds later. which is why HU has appealed to me in the past.

I'll remember this when we finally get a trooper-only weekend.
I'll enjoy completely avoiding it.

I wish I could play Strike. The game mode is dead on my side on the internet. So I play HvV, blast or extraction.

That’s great that some people enjoy it, good for them. Make a temporary separate mode/playlist so people who want to play herofront can do so and leave regular GA alone. It’s not that hard DICE and it would make everyone happy. There’s really no reason to force everyone into it if they want to play the main mode in the game.
Could just play HvV but oh, they ruined that too when making this game by the target system which often leads to chasing cowardly Maul’s and Luke’s around the map.
Getting past the first round of any map, for that matter...
Yes, let's accept bad practices from devs. What could possibly go wrong?
Oh, I'll be enjoying that too lol. Both are better alternatives to the regular GA.

Nah, I like it because it is like a better HvV overall.

If you don't like heros why even play Battlefront? Battlefield 5 is that way ->
Don't even start with that whole "battlefront is all about heroes" nonsense.
There's no shortage of people telling others to play something else.
Trash mode, I’m terrible with heroes and had no trouble handling it.
Bring on trooper only GA, hero blast and era locked weekends.

True that.
As for your last sentence:

Biggest HU stereotype, good players like this mode. Which include me so no. It's not those at the bottom.
They will never leave the bottom of the barrel if they never learn to earn.
Some people just don't get it.
According to who? Most "good players" I know dislike the mode.
its stupid honestly me and most of my friends are all good at this game and we all like it its just a fun mode people need to stop with the nonsense dont matter if your good or bad some will like the mode some wont.
again with this ''it is just 2 days''. No is not only 2 days, it is already the third or the forth time that they put this event without the possibility to chose if play it or not. From my perspective and from the perspective of the all players that don't like it they have ruined the game for 4 weekends! And a lot of players can play only in weekend!
And hey, the next unlimited power event it is just another heroes unleashed!
This!
It rewards passive play. Aggressive play results in losing your hero to a starfighter strafe or AT-ST through no fault of yours.
The few times I played it I found that Iden sniping at heroes/fighters or Leia alt fire spam from the back was a surefire way to top the board. The turnips will zerg and die on the objective so you don't have to, whereas in normal 2 hero GA, if you don't push the objective, you hurt your team very badly and end up losing the game long before you can rack up a high score or killstreak.
I imgagine it's okay mode for pubstackers too, but I don't know how people find 2 min steamrolls fun, anyway.

As in the movies so in the game, storm/clone/droid troopers are cannon fodder. In other words a glorified AI (at times not even that)
Even a blast door is trouble for them.
You must be new here....
That would be much better with a discount on the executors/jet packs troopers as well. Think I'd play it with that kind of improvement. For now, it's Specialist Full Stinger or HvV only.
It's good people like it. There is reasons and I understand them. I've clearly nothing against the fact to make it a more recurrent event, or a new game mode if the player base allows it (to not split it too much). But actually forcing me to play it feels kind'a disgusting. Make a new queue for it I don't know...
Because I like to play as Troopers! Because playing as Troopers was originally the whole point of this game series: to get away from the Force and lightsabers and to experience the iconic battles of Star Wars through the eyes of a common soldier, with only a blaster and a handful of thermal detonators to aid you.
I have never touched a Hero in either Battlefront game. I don't want to. I've never wanted to. For me, the Trooper is all I need! I'm an infantry grunt, through and through.
Who are you callin' cannon fodder, bub?
I mean being swept over in GA is annoying enough normally. But when theres 9 heroes on a decent team and youre stuck with **** who dont have thumbs... it is arduous.
So id say unless you squad up with good players... stay away until the event is over because your team of **** will let you down guarenteed.
I can only imagine cause they play cautiously to not lose their hero.
I already think thats bad play. And before any of you bossk players creep out of the woodwork to say im not **** i get 100+ kills with bossk... yeah but then your team loses because to get that killstreak you sat outside the objective and got kills with stupid grenade launchers and then when you get to half health... comlletely run off to regain full health.
Heroes are meant to turn the tide of battle not be a hammy way of you stroking your digital ego.
