First time we've seen Palpatine as far as I'm aware

SAmulticore · September 26, 2017 1:09PM

Oh wow it gets better, there's a long version...

FINALLY.

Bummer that they couldn't get Obi-Wan and Grievous done in time for launch. Oh well, at least they'll be free relatively soon. And hey, 14 heroes is still a lot better than 6.

Stalemate · September 26, 2017 1:26PM

Wow what video has me so pumped. A little surprised there are only 5 game modes but everything else looks amazing.

DrVictorDoom · September 26, 2017 1:26PM

I couldn't tell from the trailer but I hope there's some smaller modes like cargo.

KILLERDRVIER · September 26, 2017 1:27PM

very sexy kylo feels better i see in the gameplay

Not from the looks of it other than Blast.

Strike may be a smaller game mode.

Looks pretty good.

I'm glad they mentioned the offline components, but with any luck we'll get some more details on them here in the near future. If the first impressions and reviews turn out well, I just might renew my Xbox Gold membership and jump into the fray.

I just noticed that, they've dropped Cargo

Kenny_Bania_GOLD · September 26, 2017 1:33PM

The graphics and sounds are exquisite. No surprise, though. The first installment trailers instilled the exact same thing.

5 game modes, though. Hmm.

At least I didn't see Hero Hunt listed.

The sheer amount of content the game is starting with is a great leap forwards. It should remain pretty fresh before the additional content begins releasing. So far, its looking very attractive.

KILLERDRVIER · September 26, 2017 1:34PM

i am so ready omg bring ittttttttt

Maybe Strike will scratch that small-scale tactical itch.

Ten seconds in you get just a few frames as he scrolls by on the hero select.

KILLERDRVIER · September 26, 2017 1:37PM

feels good how it looks and the gameplay and modes etc everything guns heros

I hope so.
I'll definitely give it a shot before getting all salty.

Ah I can't access the Short Version as it won't load

Also I choose to believe that the Yellow Droid Commander we see at Kamino on 3:11 is OOM-9

Quizolio · September 26, 2017 1:43PM

Details on the arcade mode and how it'll fit into the beta:

Stalemate · September 26, 2017 1:43PM

I think you're right about Palpatine but it's very blurry.

meshugene89 · September 26, 2017 1:45PM

Some key parts from that trailer:
All 18 Planets

Only 5 Multiplayer Modes

Strike Mode Allows for Heroes (sounds like a revamped Supremacy)

First Look at Imperial Officer

First Look at Imperial Heavy

First Look at Resistance Heavy

ANH Han Solo

Star Cards Look Better

Star Card Progression

ROMG4 · September 26, 2017 1:46PM

Yeah all I can access is the long version

Interesting that they have a Hooded Kylo Ren skin already at 1:53

I'll be using that

Looks amazing, cannot wait to get started!

KILLERDRVIER · September 26, 2017 1:58PM

yeah feels good

Stalemate · September 26, 2017 1:58PM

It's very blurry but you can see palpatine in the twitter video.

SAmulticore · September 26, 2017 1:59PM

It's blurry but it's definitely Steve. No lightsaber either, just his creepy RoTJ fingers.

Shmee123 · September 26, 2017 2:01PM

This is the type of info that people have been waiting for. There is definitely a reason to be hyped now.

KILLERDRVIER · September 26, 2017 2:01PM

yeah yeah :P he is there DO IT

SAmulticore · September 26, 2017 2:04PM

In the content comparison chart we don't see any extra heroes for single player only, possible confirmation of Iden for multiplayer.

Stalemate · September 26, 2017 2:05PM

Couldn't get this to post properly last time for some reason.

HeavyTeemu · September 26, 2017 2:09PM

So they got rid of cargo, droid run and drop zone. That's good. No reason to scatter players so they can play in half empty lobbies.

I wonder what objectives are available in strike. Does it mix all of the above in the same round or are they separated?

Well, the reddit leaks (which thanks to this trailer have been proven correct in some aspects

) stated that Iden would be included to balance out the Imperial side since they're not planning to bring back Dengar or Greedo and Krennic may be saved a for a later season. So this basically confirms the hero roster we've known for some time:

Yoda
Maul
Luke
Han
Leia
Chewbacca
Lando
Vader
Palpatine
Boba
Bossk
Iden
Rey
Kylo

Quizolio · September 26, 2017 2:12PM

Still not a bad roster, especially considering we'll be getting Finn and Phasma later on.

Noctis1313 · September 26, 2017 2:13PM

Yes, we must remember that even more content will be added down the line. I think about six months into the game's life we'll have a pretty big game on our hands.

Yeah considering the amount of content (especially maps) we do have I can't even begin to be mad. The only thing I'd have hoped for is enough prequel/sequel heroes at launch to era-lock.

Disappointed about the lack of Cargo though.

Don't worry, after the PT and ST eras have 3 heroes and villains each they will lock the heroes to their eras, at least that's what was said by the ever reliable leakers on reddit who correctly called so much of what we saw in this trailer.

Also, Strike is said to be a small 8v8 objective-based mode so perhaps there will be different types of objectives within that mode that act like sub-modes players can choose within Strike, or perhaps the objectives change depending on the planet so some may have a Cargo-type objective and others may have a Drop Zone-type objective.

You press the picture icon (looks like a mountain) and paste in the URL.

I have already posted this one though.

CurbUrSkyrImC4 · September 26, 2017 2:46PM

Looks awesome, but I personally still have questions. Condensing to 5 online modes isn't bad, but will we get more soon? I loved Cargo. What is Strike? Is it a big mode or small mode? Is it actually a few different modes? I'd love more info on that.

And as someone who cares most about what we can do offline splitscreen I'd like more clarification. It seemed implied all or most ground online maps will be available offline, but I'm not sure and so actually how many? Can we do Space Battles offline splitscreen? Will any online modes be playable offline or will there be separate modes for offline? In the Reddit leak I thought I read Strike was for both online and offline.

I haven't preordered and probably won't, but assuming the Beta has an offline splitscreen mode to try out and EA officially releases info on the offline that we can play multiple modes (big ground, small ground & space) offline and how many maps will go to the offline I might show support before the game comes out. Either way I'll get the game, but I might still wait to see if Black Friday has a slight price drop.

It's hard not to give into the intense hype that trailer created for me, but the Force is strong with me.
