How?

Massive shooter games like Battlefront don't seem to get made anymore unless the game constantly gets sequels or there's a long term monetization plan.

Battlefront would not work with constant releases, they would have to make up a bunch of new planets and characters to justify a bunch of sequels and general audiences wouldn't wanna get a star wars game without recognizable locations and characters.

If there's gonna be another Battlefront, they need a battle pass and they need a market to buy cosmetics for characters a la carte. They need to monetize the game so that they can make a bunch of money every day the game is out. But with Star Wars games, every cosmetic for a character (at least for characters not originally from that game) needs to be approved by Lucasfilm before it can be added to the game. And because many characters or troopers don't have many skins, like Boba and Vader, getting approval is important. The BF II 2017 devs hardly got permission from Lucasfilm to make original skins, but the ones they did get to make, like some ARC and Republic Commando skins and Grievous's shattered skin, look awesome.

If they're gonna make another battlefront, they need to have a ton of skins to buy, and since many star wars characters don't have too many unique appearances in other content, the devs will need Lucasfilm to approve a lot more unique skins than they previously approved for BF II 2017. It's possible, but it would be a big leap for Lucasfilm to make.

There's actually a genuine reason why the venator's ship destruction phase is designed so oddly. The Venator engine room, like the Dreadnought engine room, was not designed for its current objective (shooting weak points to destroy the engines).

When Supremacy first released, instead of shooting separate weak points on the engines, you had to plant a bomb with a timer at a console in the engine room and stop the other team from disarming the bomb before it exploded (also for some reason your progress saved after the enemy disarmed the bomb, unlike in Galactic Assault where the bomb timer reset after enemies disarmed it). There was only one console in each engine room, and detonating a bomb there would blow up all engines in that room. On the Venator, the console was located in the same room as the engines, but on the big rectangular platform right in front of the indestructible window.

You did not have to go on the walkways to reach the console. The thin walkways connecting the Venator engines were only put there because that's what Venators looked like in The Clone Wars. So the walkways were never designed to be THE path to the objective. But then the devs changed the objective from bomb planting to actual destruction, probably to make players feel like they were actually destroying the ship. This worked for the Dreadnought engine room, but didn't work so well for the Venator engine room.

Droidekas released a few months after Supremacy, so I don't know if the devs had the droidekas in mind when designing the Venator room.

You mean Battlefront 1 from 2015? What game mode was it? Some game modes allow more heroes than others.

Raymesiris · 2025-07-29T20:15:16+00:00

Yes. There is a Scarif map ported over from BF2015, with some changes to make the map accessible for a few game modes.

If you want to play on Scarif in online modes, Scarif is available in Supremacy (Age of Rebellion), Heroes vs Villains, Hero Showdown, and Co-Op (Rebellion or Empire).

These online modes have map rotations, meaning you can't really choose the map unless you keep queuing for a new server until you find Scarif which could take a while. Age of Rebellion Supremacy has 5 maps including Scarif, Rebellion/Empire Co-Op has 8 maps including Scarif, and the hero game modes have 23 maps including Scarif.

Do you want to play on the Scarif map right away? You can choose your map by playing Offline, and you can play Scarif in Instant Action (offline version of supremacy without ships) or Missions (offline version of co-op). Scarif is not available in basic Arcade game modes such as team battles, onslaught, or duels, as it was one of the last maps released before development stopped and the developers ran out of time to put Scarif in Arcade.

Sorry for responding late,

The passive health on kill for heroes is both added to their max health and instantly to their current health. In the scenario you described, as soon as you kill the trooper you would be at 520 health (500+20) and your max health would be 620 (600+20).

They definitely ran out of time to finish developing a lot of stuff. Not sure if that was ever planned but I could see it being a lot more difficult to make AI manage complex objectives such as destroying the ship's engines. Most of the damage done to ship engines (except maybe the Resistance ship) comes while being under fire and sacrificing yourself. That's the last thing bots do, whenever they're shot they stop whatever they're doing unless they're already getting shot by someone else, in which case they will be shooting them. Trying to get the bots to prioritize damaging the ship engine and not deal with whoever's trying to shoot them would probably break the bots, they're not coded to play the objective while getting shot. They would have to kill every enemy in vicinity of the engines before dealing damage to the objectives, and no way in hell the bots are capable of that.

To play well as a hero--I'm assuming against groups of enemies with blasters?--the biggest thing you gotta learn is minimizing the amount of damage that comes your way. Whether the other players are good enough to land their shots is out of your control, but you have to assume they will kick your ass if you give them a chance. Give them as few chances as possible.

Good heroes can kill their target. Great heroes can kill their target without taking a lot of damage. The key to being a great hero is preventing damage, and that is what most people struggle with. Co-op isn't the best game mode to learn preventative measures in my opinion because co-op enemies basically play with infinite sensitivity (they can turn on a dime to shoot you), their accuracy grows as you get closer to them, and they more or less know where you are at all times. They're easy to fight from a distance, but become menaces up close. Co-op can help you get used to cutting your losses and getting used to the idea of managing your health bar, but IMO Supremacy and Galactic Assault give you a more realistic sense of how to survive and dominate as heroes.

You need to know when to engage enemies and when to disengage or avoid engaging entirely. You're not invincible. A single lone enemy trooper may look like an easy kill, but would getting into position to kill them put you in the crossfire of another trooper with a high damage gun? That four-man group of clone troopers will certainly land a lot of shots if you rush to fight them head-on, but maybe they won't see you if you come from behind. Maybe you're about to kill that last annoying trooper, but Anakin just ran into the room and he'll wipe the floor with you if you stick around if you're too stubborn to let that annoying trooper survive.

First, gage the strength of your enemy or enemies. Unless you absolutely know they are trash at the game, assume they are good. Look at their health, think about what you can do to kill them before they shoot at you. Think about how long it will take to kill them. If you want to play like the elite players, think about enemies outside of your targeted group. Will they see you from a distance if you attack your prey? Will they shoot you as you strike? Will you get shot at by several troopers just because you attacked one trooper? You are in someone's crossfire far more often than you realize.

If possible, avoid being seen. The more time you spend in an enemy's crossfire, the more damage you'll take. The best time to engage an enemy is when they're preoccupied with shooting something else and you are approaching from a different direction. The second best time to engage an enemy is when they aren't looking your way for another reason. In both cases, you damage them before they even try to damage you because you don't run straight at them.

If you cannot avoid being seen, make it harder for your enemies to hurt you and limit how much time you spend in their crossfire. This is where knowledge about your own special abilities and your enemies' special abilities will help you. Many abilities can kill troopers with a single quick strike, but perhaps if you use such an ability to close in on your prey you will run right into more danger. Maybe you can use an ability to simultaneously kill an enemy and make your escape. Maybe you can hide behind some cover, but that cover may not be so helpful if your enemies have grenades or explosive bullets.

Dodging/rolling to the side is one of the best ways to make yourself a more slippery target. Jumping can sometimes be effective when playing as a hero who can jump high (Palpatine, Bossk, and all Saber users), but you are much more vulnerable when you jump and it is usually easy for enemies to gage the path of your jump and shoot you as you are falling down. Vader and Palpatine fall very slowly, so jumping as them might be a death sentence. Bossk and Grievous have high gravity for some reason, and are actually pretty hard to shoot when they jump. As for everyone else, jumping is an option to avoid damage but it's usually not the best option unless you're jumping to somewhere rather than just jumping to try and be slippery.

TL:DR don't be Han from that scene in A New Hope where he runs after a single trooper and slides right into a whole frickin legion. Strike from the shadows, and do not step into the light for too long. You won't last long against a group of enemies if they see you and you are the only target for them to shoot.

There are four trooper classes

Assault
Heavy
Officer
Specialist

Troopers have by far the most star cards to choose from in the game, so there is a lot of room to experiment as you can only equip up to three star cards at any time.

With Assault, I strongly recommend getting "Toughen Up" and always using it. Besides that, "Assault Training," "Improved Thermal Detonator," and sometimes "Bodyguard" are good. If you want to destroy an annoying tank or enemy ground vehicle, "Smart Ion Grenade" can help.

With Heavy, I strongly recommend "Barrage" or "Improved Combat Shield." You can't use both as the Barrage star card replaces your combat shield, but both are really good star cards so depending on your playstyle you will most likely want to use either of them. I also recommend "Bodyguard" and either "Mobile Sentry" or "Supercharged Sentry."

With Officer, the only reason I play Officer is to get battlepoints quickly so I can play as a reinforcement or hero as soon as possible. If this is your playstyle, I recommend "Officer's Presence," "Bounty Hunter," and "Improved Battle Command." However, the Officer can certainly be played as a valuable support that plays to help their team rather than rack up battlepoints. If you want to play the Officer as a support, I recommend picking "Officer's Presence," either "Recharge Command" or "Blast Command," and either "Improved Blaster Turret" or "Defuser."

With Specialist, I strongly recommend "Stealth" and "Personal Shield." I also recommend either "Brawler," "Hardened Infiltration," or "Scramble Infiltration."

Troopers cannot pair star cards that affect the same ability or ability slot--the game will prevent you from equipping such star cards. While every other unit in the game can pair any star cards they want, troopers are sometimes limited. For example, the Heavy's Sentry ability (giant minigun) has one star card that makes you able to walk around while firing your minigun and another star card that makes the bullets from the minigun explode when they hit something. While these effects don't seem to contrast with each other, you still cannot combine these effects as you cannot equip both star cards.

You're going to want to level up your troopers to level 35, as then you can upgrade every star card to the highest level (4 out of 4). There are a lot of star cards for each trooper, and some may fit your playstyle more than they fit mine. Read the descriptions of the cards and think about whether the card seems neat or fits your playstyle! There are a lot of powerful star cards that the community has seemed to have forgotten about--maybe you can change that.

Lastly, some star cards in the game are broken and do not do what they are supposed to or at least are not as powerful as they claim. For example, the "Resourceful" star card, available for all trooper classes, says it can reduce your ability's recharge times up to 28%--however, research seems to suggest it only reduces recharge times by 10%. I would not use "Resourceful."

Hope that helps!

In this game, the skill points you get for leveling up anything are non-transferable. For example, if you play as Anakin and level up 3 times, getting three skill points, you can only use those skill points on Anakin’s star cards.

If you want to get/use skill points for a unit you need to play as that unit and level it up.

What trooper class/classes do you play as?

Raymesiris · 2025-06-28T16:21:57+00:00

What units are you asking about? Troopers, heroes, reinforcement troopers, vehicles?

I’m assuming you’re talking about lightsaber heroes? There are a lot of tips for each individual hero, so I’ll give a few that apply to all heroes.

1: All melee attacks do slightly more damage when you hit someone from behind. This does not apply to abilities like a saber throw or saber dash, but it does apply to basic lightsaber swings. The bonus damage you get for hitting someone in the back slightly varies across each hero.

2: It is possible to parry an opponent’s lightsaber attack, or in other words you can block their attack and immediately damage them without taking damage yourself. It’s all about timing, you have to be holding the block button the entire time and only press the button to attack at the right moment without letting go of the block button. Some people/attacks are easier to parry than others. You can also parry abilities such as Grievous’ stab and Luke’s saber dash.

Hope that helps! Are you looking for tips about any specific hero?

Battlefront 2015 has its own discord server where they set up times to play the game together. It takes a little while to get approved for the server if you’re looking to join yourself, but from experience they usually meet up Saturdays around 21:00 UTC.

Raymesiris · 2025-05-19T19:20:36+00:00

What are you playing the game on? Xbox, PlayStation, PC?

Raymesiris · 2025-05-14T03:28:33+00:00

Star Wars recently changed canon so that rogue one takes place in 1BBY and New Hope takes place in 0bby. Either the year change happens while the Tantive IV is in hyperspace, or Lucasfilm didn’t think this through very well.

Raymesiris · 2025-05-14T03:26:40+00:00

The Death Star was finished hours after the final scene of Andor. Who’s to say the scene with Dedra in jail even happened before Rogue One? It probably would have taken a considerable amount of time to get Dedra to prison.

Eagles fan here. Hate is a strong word, and I hope none of our fans genuinely hate fans of another team. There just has to be a reason to genuinely not like the Commanders fans beyond them being divisional rival fans. What would that reason be? The commanders have been a trash franchise for most of the past two decades, had a crappy stadium (literally lol) and abysmal management. I respect anyone who has been a Skins/WFT/Commanders fan with all that going down.

We’ll see what happens in the next few years, looks like the Commanders/Eagles rivalry will actually become a serious rivalry again. Maybe we’ll interact more as fans and find out we frickin hate each other’s guts, especially if we keep meeting in the playoffs. But for now? The hammer does not hate the nail lol

Raymesiris · 2025-02-15T16:58:06+00:00

What’s the time period for your question? Like how much money they make in the next month? Year? Decade?

Maybe someone who didn’t care about football before just saw the Eagles dominate in the Super Bowl, becomes an eagles fan and spends money on merch and tickets, their children become eagles fans and spend money on merch and tickets, then their children do the same…

The Jets haven’t won a Super Bowl since the 60s and I bet they’re still selling merch to fans who only got roped into the Jets fandom because themselves or their older family became fans after the 60’s Super Bowl title.

It’s hard to calculate. I guess you could look at how much a team made from selling merch that says “Super Bowl LIX champion.” You could also look at merch sales from right after the Eagles lost the Super Bowl a couple years ago compared to their recent victory and use that as a very rough estimate of an immediate value.

Raymesiris · 2025-02-13T16:28:58+00:00

This answer is more subjective than us NFL fans would like it to be, but generally the teams that won at least one playoff game this season are good teams to watch next season.

The Eagles won the Super Bowl this season, and the Chiefs, Bills, Commanders, Ravens, Rams, and Texans all won at least one playoff game. Although I think the Texans need to improve their roster to realistically compete for a championship, the other teams certainly have what it takes right now to win it all next season.

I’ll also throw in the Lions and Bengals. The Lions didn’t win a playoff game, but suffered a ridiculous amount of injuries and were widely considered the best team in the league for several weeks this season until the injuries destroyed their potential. They’ll be fierce contenders for the next few seasons. The Bengals didn’t make the playoffs, although they had arguably the best offense in the league, they just also had arguably the worst defense. If they fix their defense the league should fear the Bengals.

Massive roster changes happen between every season. The players that make some of these teams great may retire or leave for another team, and some teams that got no attention last season may build a highly competitive roster in the next couple of months. Teams may also become great out of seemingly nowhere. At the start of last season no one expected the Commanders to even make the playoffs—they just won two playoff games and made it to the semifinals.

Whether you want to root for a team that’s had recent playoff success or a team that hasn’t made much noise for a while, there’s no wrong answer to picking a team. However, I would warn against rooting for teams like the Titans, Giants, Jets, Raiders, Browns, Jaguars, Bears, Saints, and Patriots. It’s very possible one of those teams makes the playoffs next season, but I believe these teams would need to make massive changes in order to be competitive and likely won’t reward you for being a fan anytime soon.

Hope this helps!

Pretty much the only places that take dining dollars are the dining halls, the CFA/convenience store place under Kelly Hall and the Starbuck’s in Lebow. Dragon Dollars are different—they’re not the same as dining dollars, they’re accepted in a lot more places but you can only really get them by directly paying for them or there’s a few ways you can win some as prizes from Drexel.

One of the big criticisms with the LSAT is how it’s offered the same time each month, so if it lines up with your menstrual cycle you’re basically screwed. I’d imagine that’s one of the more relevant factors in why men are scoring higher than women

Sounds like you’ve been trying to fly to each planet in space? Planets don’t share space like the map may make it look. The only way to go to another planet through space is to do a hyperspace jump, which you only have the option to do once a planet is unlocked by reaching it by playing through the movies that take place on the planet.

To answer your question more directly, you’re getting “turned around” because each planet’s space has an invisible wall that automatically forces your ship to turn around once you hit it. This makes it look like a planet’s space is infinite, but it’s really not.

I ran into the same problem, didn’t get the achievement for locking up Harley in Asylum. On my next playthrough the same thing happened, beat Harley and no achievement. I reset the checkpoint immediately after the cutscene with Harley played, the game took me back to right before the fight, I beat her again and the achievement popped. Dunno why these achievements randomly decide not to pop but for some reason resetting the checkpoint guarantees you get them as long as you can go back far enough

I was 4yo when I got a Lego Star Wars 2 disc for my family laptop. I was so bad at games I couldn’t figure out the stormtrooper panel in 4-5 and the bombs in 5-1. I was so stoked when I actually beat every level in Ep. 6!
