One Hero Per Side for Extraction?
As per title, would people be more interested in Extraction with one hero per side?
BF2015 had a couple per side iirc and I believe it was well-received. I don't suspect one in this game will have an overbearing influence (balance Anakin first).
Thoughts?

Honestly I fear that heroes (Post-Anakin) would have been a great idea for this small jampacked mode.
The inclusion of the chosen one you’re always going to have points to spend might as well be mr skyguy and Force a victory outta The Bad guys efforts
Extraction was better balanced in 2015
With Officer bounty hunters racking up easy point with buff and se44c Anakin will surely be one win for sure
Yep I share those concerns. There will be meta picks especially the way things are. Could always keep it OT heroes only.
To those going "lol no", you clearly never played BF2015 with their 1-shot heroes.

Worked in 2015 because the heroes would widdle each other down to the point where the troopers could finish them off.
That's true, Palp might be a bit much. I can see Bossk mining up the package and running to regen being an issue too.
I'm down with this. Anything other than target-based HvV to be real, though.
Good discussion.

Never forget
Yeah man, and all the work is already done. We have HvV on both Extraction maps already. We have the Extraction mode already in-game. Swap troopers for heroes and you have a new, objective-based hero mode with no target system and no tactical incentive for running or map exploits. This is a no brainer that I wish others would begin to lobby for. This would be a really good mode.

Between Bossk and Phasma's droid, the ls would never get close to the shipment.

So if they were to add heroes to this game's version of extraction, they would:
1. Have to limit them to one per side per match.
B. Have them preselected and locked to each map for balancing purposes.
3. Have era appropriate heroes, which would eliminate the worry of Anakin spam.
But if they don't do those three things, then it's a no for me for heroes in this game's version of extraction.
They'd have to take enforcers out to add a hero

And the airial troopers.
Exactly. Though I'm not sure I agree about 2015's balancing being better, I agree that one or all of the steps you mentioned would need to be considered.

At the time when the mode was first released, the heroes that were present on each map for the map were balanced with each other. It wasn't until they did away with the pre selected heroes that balance went out the window. Once they did that, Chewie and Bossk would dominate the mode for their respective side. I personally went 85-2 on the Palace Garage map with Bossk in one match of extraction, with my only two deaths happening before I spawned in as Bossk.
The heroes started out pretty well balanced in the 2015 game, until they added more and tried to balance for HvV, but didn't balance it separately

What the ROADMAP should look like for 2019/2020:
“Season” 4: Episode IX
“Season” 5: Rogue One
Input like this is still helpful! I appreciate both Blast and Strike for this very reason.

I don't care if they make a second version of Extraction with a hero in it. Or a version that's all heroes, I don't care, live it up. But leave the existing mode alone.
Imagine if this thread gets a dev response earlier than the Extraction mega-thread with over a thousand comments. No offense OP.
It would behoove you to read the thread more closely. Nothing's being requested, only discussed. Though yeah, that would be kind of unfortunate.

I don't think many people play Battlefront 2 for its "stellar gunplay", though opinions on all sides are appreciated.
There's also Blast btw.
Xbox One GT: Atreus215
There’s also numerous modes with hero’s, what’s your point.
Edit/ nevermind, I reread, I see your point. Carry on, I jumped the gun

lol glad I took a minute before responding
For real though, I'm hoping so much for it.
Xbox One GT: Atreus215
Wouldn't shock me. If they did something that made sense I'd be shocked.
Blast is a joke to me. No comparison to objective modes without heroes. Yes, alot of people like mindless hero gameplay, but must it be in every mode?
You're entitled to your opinion but "mindless hero gameplay" is ignorant af lol.
Xbox One GT: Atreus215
Wow, you bias is smelling up the room.
And your ignorance is making the place inhospitable. I play every mode in the game, including starfighters.
