I... Uh.. Don't have a problem with that. My problem has always been the immersion/era-locked crowd. Not the number of heroes. I'm fine with only 2 heroes, so long as they are not era locked. In fact, I have said multiple times in the past that I would be fine with less heroes in GA as an event.
No cross era but you can have multiple of the same hero. Problem solved.
Battlefront 2 , Battlefield and more.
Agent Smith approves. This is SURE to satisfy the immersion crowd. They'll love it!
Did you make a forum account just to comment in this thread?

Pretty sure Devs nerf/buff based on numbers and statistics not people complaining.
Era accurate isn't limiting the heroes you can play as its limiting the heroes you can play as on a certain map. They all would still be in the game.
Also heroes are extremely boring and much like Jedi in star wars galaxies ruin the game.
Battlefront 2 , Battlefield and more.
What do you do when you hate all the ST maps except Crait, but actually enjoy the heroes from that era?
Anyways, as an old SWG player, I agree that the excessive Jedi killed the game. Not because they existed, but because it was no longer earned.
Somehow get dice to add a map maker to the game. Like Frontwire does with their series.
I want to say I don't have a real problem with hero's. I like the concept my problem is they are every all the time. It just makes the game incredibly boring to me. Also I only really support the no cross era because seeing the same heroes on every map is just so incredibly boring. Oh look Dark side has Palpatine and bossk and Light side has Rey and Yoda.
I could care about the immersion argument.
You are correct with swg.
Battlefront 2 , Battlefield and more.
The simple reality is that in this and last game BF15 the large mode is where the majority of players gravitate too ( as foolish as that maybe ;-) ) but they have no large trooper mode where is about the MAJORITY so until there is a multi map alternative the reduced Hero count is better for a wider playerbase
I remember the last game had several modes that split the player base up pretty bad, yet I had no trouble getting a game in any mode.
That being said, custom servers would solve every single problem in these forums.
I played SWG when it launched, and back then the few who who unlocked them definitely earned them
Anyways, back to BF2...
bads like this event because they can simply stand next to Yoda (on Mos Eisley, so immersive!) and win, change my mind
Battlefront should be a game where you live star wars in a immersive way as it was in the past. EVERY BATTLEFRONT game don't have cross era heroes in THE MAIN MODE. The main mode of the game MUST BE as much as possible loyal to star wars universe, to perform and recreate star wars battle in an immersive way. Cross era should be A PART of the game NOT PRESENT IN ALL THE GAME.
It is CLEAR that devs change the initial intention because at the beginning the heroes weren't enough. They selled to us this game as no cross era through the beta, and they said to us to keep "THINGS IMMERSIVE" while now we have this.
Almost all the players that defend cross era are new players and a lot of them are barely star wars fans.
This is so VERY untrue. So untrue it's insulting. I've been playing Star Wars Battlefront since the very first PS2 game. Every one of them. Read dozens of legends books before Disney killed them off. Never missed a great Star Wars game. I was frequently insulted by classmates for wearing Star Wars shirts to school back in the day. You have no right to keep calling cross era players non-fans. Take your True Scotsman nonsense somewhere else.
Those are some of the best maps in game. Why would you hate them?
That's subjective. I don't enjoy those maps, and I can't really explain why. Maybe it's that announcer or something.
But yes, in my opinion it should be permanent
I am not seeing the problem.

That in a shooter game you don't win by utterly demolishing the enemy team in terms of kill and score?
We smashed them on the first phase when we got to play the Lightside, mind you, so we were clearly much better. Why didn't we win both rounds if not for the terrible balancing situation caused by this gimmick event?
But yeah, I imagine all the cabbage are pleased at getting a 40% winrate rather than the usual 0%, and see no issue
Edit: Found the comments in his comment history (I don't know how to link those though).
I believe you are looking for this.
Well it seems that when attacking it doesn't matter your kill count and when defending it does. Its the same in any attack and defend game mode where the attacking team has limited re spawns. Same thing happens in Battlefield 1s operations.

Much appreciated! I think at this point that needs to be stickied to the top of the front page.
Trying with a bigger bait? Lol, dude... It’s another 30h or so. You can do it.
He said they have no plans for it. He never used the word never. But yeah, it will likely never be permanent. Here’s hoping this event will be a recurring thing atleast.
While I don’t wanna put meaning behind his words, that particular quote was for a quite specific request, iirc.
show me a winning battlefield team where the top 18 on the losing team all outscored the top player on the winning one.
you won't. I play it. That game is remotely balanced and not afflicted by nonsense content removals like this one.
Hahaha... the fact that they released a marquee new hero and immediately restricted access to said hero leads me to think that whatever marketing resources they did have on this game have been shifted elsewhere... it is highly unlikely this scenario takes place if they are legitimately trying to generate revenue and excitement for the game and have a team of people working towards that goal.

We won. Maybe not all the way down to 18 but the 10nth guy down on their team had near our top guy in score and we won.
Battlefront 2 , Battlefield and more.
***** Suez Ops is the worst designed trash in that entire game. Alt F4 everytime that junk came up forgot it existed
The hilarious thing is that lobby didn't even make it to Sinai which is even worse with the impossible 3 flag last phase
Okay, so one single operation in BF1 is almost half as bad as literally every map in Battlefront 2
Still, I wonder how much worse it'd have been if DICE had decided to go for a "no tanks weekend" (only attackers get tanks) for "immersion" sake.
Fortunately, we never got to find out because they don't break that game every weekend and call it a "live service"
Worse team in score won.
Battlefront 2 , Battlefield and more.
Hahahaha, you asked for it, you got it, so you try to change the conversation to bad map design...
uhh no I didn't? I said top 18, not top 9.
Battlefield has 32 person teams (compared to 20 in this game), so an 18 stack all outscoring the winning team is the equivalent of the 11 I showed earlier.
lmao @ all you scrubs trying to defend this dumpster fire tho.
Battlefront 2 , Battlefield and more.
uhh, top guy on Germany has 7876. Your 17th place has 5279.
Looks like the your 9th was as high as their first (tho with a pitiful 1 K/D). What arcane form of math are you using?
but anyway, you still haven't met the challenge
and you can stop if you don't have anything better, as desperately ***** 87 battlereports that are almost but no cigar to a challenge I made isn't really contributing to the thread topic.
I meant each place on our team was almost double each place on their team. Like our number 8 had 8,000 some points vs their number 8 had 4,000.

I think what the Admiral is trying to say is that he's SOOO goood you just can't believe it ..anything he is unhappy with means the game isn't properly balanced for his elite skills. He "laughs" in the face of ALL counterpoints to his statements, he can proclaim what is "probably" going on in all matches with everybody...because he is sooo good. You just might not be able to get through...you are not worthy. 😂😂😂
Also if he's creaming troopers with his Hero this weekend it's because the "trash event" isn't giving enough competition. But this is a "casual" shooter/fighting game so I'm not so sure how awesome that status is suppose to be.
I've been seei g this a lot since Christmas and my guess would be that your team wasn't killing enough people threatening the objective.
Killstreaks are irrelevant if you aren't impacting the outcome of the match.
Some of the best players I've played with always end up around mid table but they know how to protect or secure an objective and make sure their team wins
I don't say ALL THE PLAYERS that defend cross era, i say A LOT OF THEM. And is not an insult, seem that you are very susceptible. It is a statement that in my experience is true, a lot of players that defend cross eras are this. You are not one of them? ok. But tell why a veteran like you that is equal to me in love to star wars support this cross eras madness or at least don't want a single mode that support immersion like in the olds battlefront games.
''that's how respect for accuracy in star wars dies, under thunderous applause'' cit.
I don't care because it's just a video game. An online video game at that. I'm a life long gamer, but I never took video game stories seriously. I see video games as goofing off, but I expect books and films to be serious.
I somehow missed this comment, but yeah, I was one of them there bounty hunners, when I wasn't busy cooking or dancing or whatever. lol
