Ohhhhh.....that's where I might be getting confused. I thought it became a megathread, but you changed the title back to the original
This sounds like a good idea... I just don't know what kind of other threads should be made... Maybe ones asking for content? Keep in mind that there are two threads asking for more Extraction maps and they were never answered. I think one of them has dev/mod comments, though.
Actually we did have one...Hero SFA...when Dice Nerfed the Falcons HP drasticly cause of the sake of their new mode...ignoring the balance within normal SFA which should be more Important, specially now when noone plays that Hero SFA anymore.
Yeah pretty much, nothing has happened, not even a new map.

That Specialist rework was disappointing.
The only reason I see is they have plans for it, but they are either not a priority or there isn't much progress on it. So, they can't openly say that they will not work on it (which wouldn't be exactly true) but they can't say they have plans for it (which again wouldn't exactly be true because they have no new maps ready or planned).

Almost everything you said there was incorrect
The tie interceptor is classss if youre fast and accurate.
The f/o interceptor is borderline op.
Boba Fett is an absolute beaaaast in the right hands. Ill make him.survive the whole match and get 70+ kills while doing it.
Mauls scimitar is situational on certain maps like kamino he can be almost unkillable. Also ryloth. Other maps i just bring him out to guarentee taking out a pesky poe dameron in one laser barrage.
For those above saying you cant fly yoda in first person... you deffo can and ive had killstreaks of 50+ in yodas ship in 1st person.
The only ship i dont fly in 1st person is the falcon and even then i switch depending on what im doing.
Every other ship in the game its 1st person view all the way.
Personally i agree with the Speed increase
Liked for B-Wings, TIE Defenders and new maps
I wasn’t able to play. Can anyone confirm?

Hero discounts are usually GA only. Don't think I've ever seen discounted hero ships.
Yeah, I would at least like some communication on this. Maybe we get something with the new mode ...
I really think there is a lot of unused potential for skins, heros and emotes (thinking about pilot communication like "Red 5 reporting" ) that could be used to get revenue out of the game!
I'd also liked to see maps from GA like Kashyyyk being added to SA only with starfighters. Geonosis might work as well. I think other maps are too small.
A while back, Ben asked if we would prefer to see new maps or ported maps. IIRC, most people suggested it didn't matter, whatever got us new content the fastest. The trench run was the overwhelming favorite for ported maps. I hope they bring it back, no idea have you can have a Star Wars fighter mode without having that classic moment represented.
Would love to shoot you down with my TIE Defender or be your wingman with my Delta 7 on some new maps.
Maybe if we send @F8RGE some milk and cookies we can get a response on this thread. I’m leaning towards chocolate chip but open to suggestions.
More chance of getting a response from Father Christmas and delivered by the Easter Bunny.
An oldy but a goody. I'm more of an oatmeal cookie man myself but chocolate chip is great too. As for the idea of B-wings, TIE Defenders, and Delta 7's; HELL YEAH!
With or without raisins?
ps you forgot about new maps.

without. And I didn't forget about new maps. They're just a given at this point.

Yeah, my bad, new maps are a given. Maybe fudge would do the trick. Nuts?

A lump of coal if we don't get any response.
Hey you can shoot me down anytime boss, the tie defender would be the imperial counterpart id love to have alongside the bwing!
That new roadmap that was supposed to come before Christmas would have been a good start... They forgot our gifts
All I can give you is that Resistance at least introduced a new starfighter for one of their "main villains" (he hasn't really appeared that much in the show) and maybe some new ones for the Aces pilots. Poe and sometimes the main character use regular Resistance X-wings.
EDIT: I decided to dig deeper and found that for the First Order: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/First_Order_Navy
and this for the Resistance:
http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Resistance_Starfighter_Corps
The problem is that according to official sources, these bombers are closer to "big ships" than regular starfighters: https://www.starwars.com/databank/resistance-bomber
Okay, after looking some more, the following starfighters are not included in the game for the ST and mainly come from comics or Resistance. What's also interesting is the number of "starfighter battles" during the ST on comics:
First order
- TIE Interceptor (unnamed) from Vonreg:
Resistance
- T-85 X-Wing (I think we have the T-70 models) from Resistance (they briefly appear on the pilot and are part of the New Republic army).
- Z-95 Headhunter. This one actually comes from the clone wars era but was used by Poe Dameron in the comics.
- And the following 5 ones are not actually "Resistance fighters" (unless they change allegiances during the shows) and I'm quite reluctant to add them but they are new starfighters in a sense: Black ace, Blue ace, Green ace, Red ace and Yellow ace. The reason why I decided to include them is because they are both racers and starfighters and they have been used to fight pirates, but I have a feeling that they might actually fight against First Order troops at some point.
- Unidentified starfighter from the comics.
- Unidentified pastorian transport. I edited my comment to include that one just because it looks cool.
TY.
Well then, that’s promising, I guess?
It's disappointing for me. I was hoping that there would have been plans in place for Coruscant, as we've got all the heroes that took place in that battle(Anakin and Dooku are on thier way), it's where Dooku fell too. Ah well, I just hope that as they are aware of demand now, we'll maybe seen an announcement in the new year.
1. Battle of Naboo - only N1 fighters vs droid fighters around a mothership
2. Battle of Geonosis - clone fleet vs droid fleet focusing on preventing a mothership from leaving the planet and stopping incoming clone battleships
3. Battle of Coruscant - this map would just be complete chaos ships top to bottom and as difficult to survive as it seemed, maybe a form of blast
4. the Kessel Run - light side race through the maze to and from kessel while the empire's goal is to prevent the escape of the specific ship with the stolen goods
5. Battle of Eadu - combination of cliff mazes and battling between xwings, ywings, and ties
6. Battle of Scarif - like the first Battlefront, get the ship through the shield and dogfight in between
7. Battle over Tatooine - only x-wings vs ties between a star destroyer and Leia's ship
8. First Death Star - like the first Battlefront
9. Battle over Hoth - defend escaping transports from Tie fighters
10. Battle at Cloud City - like the first Battlefront
11. Second Death Star - battle, plus you would need to fly inside it to destroy the Death Star
12. Battle of Jakku - like the first Battlefront
13. Battle of Takodanna - a dogfight between the two incoming squads, drive away the enemy's transport
14. Battle of Starkiller Base - another version of the Death Star battle
This is already probably too much in a game that also needs plenty of depth in the shooter side of it. But if I had my way I would also consider episodes of Clone Wars and Rebels as the reason for a couple more maps. I could also create more hero ships based on each of these maps. Hopefully we can see more content soon, or maybe they will release Battlefront 3 next Christmas, and all of this will be included, plus you could land your fighter and take part in a shooter battle at each location. Now that would be a Christmas miracle!
All these battles would be epic! Coruscant, Scarif, and the first Death Star were the three I've thought about before but the rest sound awesome as well. Starfighters definitely need some love soon!
At least you get something. But this kind of answer is the corporate way to say: "we are under non disclosure agreement about future plans, so we won't share any insight until it's on its way". This doesn't mean we will get something, nor we won't.
While it actually is an "empty reply", it is a confirmation that they haven't decided to stop supporting the mode yet. They issue clear "no answers" when they decide to stop supporting something (the campaign is the best example).
Hopefully DICE can make the dream a reality.
