I think this is very important and I hope more people realize this for the next game. Sure we all want every character from Star Wars but if the options are characters that we can play for a short period of time if someone else doesn’t select them first or fleshed out modes with updates (not events that limit content) and base unit love I will gladly hope they don’t waste resources on Hero’s/Villains. I didn’t buy the game to collect em all like Pokémon.
Any word on tweaking JPC into an infantry only Cargo mode? It would be a gigantic success. The mode would both bring back and keep players playing for a long time to come. I promise.
They'll never add it. They're too prideful in their failure of replacing DZ and Cargo with Strike
Yep played some “Cargo” a few nights ago, truly epic good old “Capture the Flag”, aaaaah good times.
Good stuff and thanks for sharing. Love the sound of the EE-4.
It's so good man. I just stopped playing after a very long session. Finally getting my burst and aim back where they need to be. Map movement and awareness too.
Well from what I have read from them I do not think that we are getting Cargo Online or Offline any time soon. But hey...now that they are talking a lot more and answering questions bluntly, ask on some social media, maybe they will answer back.
Agree, I don’t think we’re getting Cargo/DZ or any competitive mode, and that’s the reason I’m ready for a BF3 ASAP, just hope it goes back to the BF15 formula and dumps this extreme casual thing they have going now.
Just a heads up on private matches in case anyone missed the other thread. The part about core players and how other titles don’t have them is interesting.
yeah it's a nice gun, haha its just too bad its one of the main metas. Man I've only been playing cargo pretty much for the last month. It's been fun. If you guys would like I'll post a few more good videos here.
I didn't expect to see the old bring cargo back thread have posts on it. That's kind of nice, I wish we had original trooper only cargo on the second game.
when they say core players, do they mean players like us who love original cargo?
yes somebody please ask about it in that discord or other social media. I imagine it would take some time to change JPC to original cargo, but bucksaw has a point, they've already made the first step!
Clearly they’re out to attract the most casual players possible and seem out of touch with anything that makes big games,....., big imo. As to the most big titles don’t have private matches quote, I guess these guys missed the memo because most all have private’s and/or competitive modes or both; Cod, Gears, Halo, Overwatch, Fortnite, Rainbow6(ranked matches), Battlefront 15, CSGO, their very own battlefield series to name a few.
The fact we get lame modes over modes that work is amazing to me. We get failed modes like strike, E.hunt, JpCargo, over clearly wanted and asked for modes like classic cargo, dropzone, droid run,,sabotage, and extraction done right as it was in 15.
And being extraction wasn’t a part of bf2 it doesn’t count, also it’s a cheaper feeling 2nd tier extraction add on, though it’s still better than the other infantry small modes imo. It would be interesting to see who’s making these decisions and what demographic they’re trying to attract.
I would definitely want to see what demographic they're trying to attract, in their own words. As far as we go we could say they're just attracting the casual star wars fans who want mostly clone wars and heroes.
Interesting in that it's bogus
to be honest I haven't much cared for private matches. but competitive game modes are a must!

That Specialist rework was disappointing.

.....err nope we have an endless start screen then death Lol....just played Strike and don't believe my eyes it started up three time with uneven teams ...at least on my screen ......so some light.
Strike actually starts with uneven teams now?
Are there plans for any mode with a level playing field for infantry? Even if you have to modify existing ones like blast?
While disappointing thanks for putting it to rest. To difficult to rework JPC?
Well, there you have it. Extremely, extremely disappointing. At least you guys finally responded so that those of us who have been waiting out can move on.
With that, I am 100% done with BF17 in every capacity. BF17 will remain uninstalled for the rest of the game's lifespan. Unfortunately, I now cannot Battlefront 3 in good conscious. I will not purchase future Star Wars games unless Battlefront 3 launches with massive improvements. That's probably it for me and EA.
Thanks for the reply and it’s a real shame modes like this and dropzone isn’t a possibility. We have dead modes that never amounted to anything and this would/is a popular/classic mode in any/all shooters. Again, thanks for the reply, any chance of private matches or is that a no go as well.
This is a great question. I would love to know the answer.
Oh wait, I already know the answer!
Nothing is planned before Ahsoka and 16 more Clone Skins are completed...
It’s all about the heroes. This looks about right for trooper representation.
Why not?
A lot of people want this and they just get told no?
People throw hissy fits over the clone officer not wearing armor and they go that.
Confirmation of not returning...disappointing, but not surprising in the slightest. Appreciate finally getting an official answer.
To sum up this game for me, myself, and I...
Add all these up, and I'm now at the following conclusion...
There are only 2 reasons I will play this game going forward. #1, some friends invite me to squad up and get in a few rounds. I don't foresee me feeling the urge to do this more than once a week, and probably not more than every other week. #2, new content drops that interests me enough to maybe, possibly, make time to check it out. Even with being at 100% on the game, I'm not sure that dropping a couple of heroes will entice me to put in the time/effort to re-obtain that status (without some new maps or weapons).
While visually less stellar, I can say with 1,000,000% certainty that I will be dedicating more solo gaming time to BF'15 Cargo, or finding another game to play while I await Fallen Order. BF'17 has been 85%+ of my gaming time. It will now find its way into the 15% category.
That’s unfortunate. So next we must ask if some form of dropzone or private matches will be added. Many here liike to say if the 15 battlefront version was so good why aren’t more people playing it, well it’s actually doing well for its age and I would bet it will outlast this game. The one and only thing that hurt the 15 game was the release of battlefront 2 imo.
That’s in part because most people expected ea to build off the foundation from the first game. They should have never made this inferior game and kept the last game going with more dlc. I’ll end on this, I think playerbase is a reflection of the game. The last game had highly competitive clans, great fans, and elites. This game is the exact opposite. It’s the walk on a leash game.
Yup
I stopped around November when I saw the December roadmap. I knew then and there Dices gameplan was to double down on hero units to get people excited. I played the new mode once to try it out but it really just seemed like GA with cutscenes and new objectives. Haven’t bothered again since they upped the hero’s.
Anyone developing this game who actually read feedback from the last game could have known Jetpack Cargo was destined for failure and was a terrible use of resources.
They even list bug fixes as part of their “live service”.
I hope Fallen Order doesn’t recycle the same mistakes and has the success Apex Legends has EA wise.
He knew.
