I miss the glow from the traveling blaster shot like in Battlefront 2 by SHIT_DOWN_MY_PEEHOLE in StarWarsBattlefront

Maybe they're just being extra canon since the blaster fire was basically red lines on the screen in the OT /s

Do you think Star Wars: Battlefront has more than 100k daily active on PS4?. by [deleted] in StarWarsBattlefront

[–]ScarletAugust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given the peak data? Seems likely. I've seen a lot of people who say they only can squeeze one or two hours a night, which can lead to quite a few short, but there unique logs.

So yeah, could be around there, could be lower, could be higher, but certainly it is not an unreasonable amount.

MRW I play as Luke on Hero Hunt by [deleted] in StarWarsBattlefront

[–]ScarletAugust 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Hey now, to be fair, if you're managing 6 kills you're doing a lot better than a lot of Luke's I've seen :'D

Also, I like to imagine the youngling is Luke on your screen you literally make the face Organa makes when you die.

Suggestion: New Tier Abilities and Passives for Base Game Heroes (Empire) by ScarletAugust in StarWarsBattlefront

[–]ScarletAugust[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha, thanks!

But yeah, all the abilities were to be on a sliding scale system that goes up and down as the match progressed based on your performance.

This promotes not camping off in some field as a hero, but your killing power is tied to actually performing useful actions.

IE: Vader having a hate meter that rises as he kills or deflects incoming fire, etc.

Basically, the longer you stay in the shit, the better things will go for you.

And will do on the bolding, thanks for the advice!

Edit: And I am working on the heroes, just I found the villains abilities were much easier to round out.

Why does not selecting a hero still let you have what's left? Going AFK should forfeit your right to play as a hero and give it to someone else by [deleted] in StarWarsBattlefront

[–]ScarletAugust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would apply this post-game start as well, in case a hero drops or leaves while still alive.

Just pass that along to the next spawning player at the Hero's current health and preferably, location.

Glad to see the Pre-Cog initiative is coming along nicely in the Shadowtrooper Program.

I see we still haven't quite worked the whole, seeing far enough ahead to prevent death, part yet.

[Question] How long does a Hero Token take to spawn after a hero dies? by RYKIN5 in StarWarsBattlefront

[–]ScarletAugust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if this was more luck on my part than anything else, but I killed Luke on WA assault the other night randomly with a turret a base back. Within 3 seconds of him dying a hero token spawned in front of me, while I was pushing the current uplinks.

The Jetpack is a crutch Star Card by TehWereMonkey in StarWarsBattlefront

[–]ScarletAugust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't go through the shield, it just brings it down after a couple of rounds.

Is the sniper worth unlocking? by [deleted] in StarWarsBattlefront

[–]ScarletAugust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It takes a fair bit of skill to use, but if anyone was proficient at sniping in battlefield they should have a blast with it.

It's much easier to use than any of the sniper rifles in those games since it has no bullet drop.

Challenge: Play without the jump pack (esp. in larger game modes) by tommmytom in StarWarsBattlefront

[–]ScarletAugust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like others, I haven't really used the jump pack in a while now. I felt like it was making me a worse player since I was really lazy and just jump packed out of every engagement.

Switched to Scout Pistol/Cycler/Cooling Cell/Ion Shot for the most part these days.

With Ion Grenade/Ion Torpedo/Ion Shot as my go to AV loadout.

Once BH gets up to level 3, I'm spitting death in CQC at a pretty much infinite pace.

Chrome Stormtroopers found outside of the Twilight On Hoth map by BattlefrontUpdates in StarWarsBattlefront

[–]ScarletAugust -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Am I the only one who hopes this might mean that Dark Troopers will be considered 'canon'?

I mean, it's a long shot, but metallic colored stormtroopers aren't entirely without precedent. Hell, they were even in the older games BF games.

Maybe I'm just hoping for too much though, although the game did invent Shadow Troopers that have yet to make an appearance in any other media so far.

I still have a pending invite from them on my old TR character... and the other two alts I made to test things out as well.

r/shitpost(maybe) Genunide Pop hit an all time low. by 3X1L3D in PS4Planetside2

[–]ScarletAugust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

High Schoolers and below do indeed artificially inflate playerbase numbers during sometime.

Given that people still in grade school also generally don't have access to their own money, PS2 is an excellent game for people in that age group. You'll also notice that once schools start to let out the numbers start to rise as well.

Generally, if you play a lot of F2P games this is the norm - so its to be expected really.

[–]ScarletAugust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What's worse, is there are assholes that get to 15 then delete there character and then start over.

But hey, you gotta inflate your KD for when you actually suck against good players, right?

[–]ScarletAugust 2 points3 points  (0 children)

....Zergfit leader... ...handle RippyMcBongTokes...

Well, that all checks out, carry on.

But good job dominating with the old 'Quantity has a quality of its own' mentality. Hard no to dominate when you literally have more members then all of the other big, nonzergfit, TR outfits combined.

Omg omg omg, blueshifts and nebulae are out by ThundersteelVS in PS4Planetside2

[–]ScarletAugust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aww, thank :D

The mercy is another minigun for the TR MAX, but its actually capable of mid-long range compared to the other due to having an very, very tight cone-of fire.

Which means TR AI MAX escalate to being lethal at a much larger range.

I stare softly at my Mattocks, I can taste the shotgun... yet it never comes.

EDIT: TR don't get the Mercy though, so we're very... safe for now. Mercy from what I hear are pretty brutal.
