I want the successor to Rogue Squadron, but I doubt I'll get it.
Seems like you can play both sides this time around though.

I read today that it's gonna have a short single player campaign, but the focus will be mostly on multiplayer.

Would be nice to see games like X-Wing Alliance, Tie Fighter, X-Wing etc get an update or even a new title in the same mold. The only StarWars space sims around nowadays all look very dated, or they are only the sum of a greater part. (ie: Battlefield series).With todays tech they could look spectacular, but no more arcade ones please.. Jedi Starfighter, StarWars Starfighter, Rogue Squadron (Consoles) etc.
I once even thought about reinstalling galaxies, just to play the Jump To Light Speed part. I remembered someone asked me to snap a shot of the box covers for them on here too many years ago. Except I lost the disks somewhere.. not sure how that was possible. Same thing happened to my Guild Wars 2.. perhaps someone teefed them from my household. Crying or Very sad

This piqued my interest until someone mentioned it's focus was on MP... not so interested anymore now.. Still if it looks really nice eye candy at least i'd be somewhat happy with that.

Motive Studios did the SP Campaign of Star Wars Battlefront II. That's it.

Let's stay skeptical.

Remember, it's EA. They will most definitely do something to fuck it up. If not at launch, then a couple months later when review season has died down.

No regional pricing. ARS$ 2499,00 Laughing


The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.

That does not look that great since it reminds me too much of the Battlefront 2 space battles already. Now a game like Rebel Galaxy Outlaw with a Star Wars skin to it would be something that would be cool to see giving you freedom to join a side or just be a smuggler with all the great Star Wars ships and locales. Since it would be a single player only EA could not add enough Microtransactions to make it worth doing for them though.

40€ ? Sounds like some kind of half-assed attempt. Still, nice that they price this according to the scope of the game, it's a welcome change.

No gameplay shown so no clear opinion about this, other than they're obviously going for the eZpoRts/competitive trend with 5v5 matches.
Could be fun for what it'll end up being, we'll see. Another X-Wing/Tie-Fighter game would be stretching it, I really wanted a new Rogue Squadron in the least Sad

But the game is 40$€, so 32 isn't that regionally priced.


PC: Yes. Console: No.

Squadrons will feature "rich" cosmetic and game-affecting customization options. Players will earn these cosmetics through gameplay exclusively, EA said. That's an important distinction to make, in part because Star Wars: Battlefront II was heavily criticised for its microtransactions.

Surprised

So a spiritual successor to 'X-Wing VS Tie-Fighter' at the core then ?

VR is nice though. The PSVR mission in Battlefront for example is proper amazing !

"Featuring challenging real-time dogfights of 2 to 8 players, Star Wars™: X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter "

so after 20-25 years the we get an upgrade of two more players ... wtf is this mediocre thinking shit we stuck in these last two decenia ffs

imagine real fleet sized operations, 100 pilots vs an ai fleet

or 20 vs 20 with capital ships n stuff, goddamn when did they cut off the balls from gamedevs

5v5 is 1999
