They should also add vehicles like B-wing fighters, Tydirium shuttles, and others. Also like I said, have multiple heroes on each map like for Endor, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Han Solo, and Chewbacca for the Rebel Alliance and for the Empire, Darth Vader, and Emperor Palpatine.
For Geonosis, for the Separatists, Count Dooku, and Jango Fett, and for the Galactic Republic Padme Amidala Skywalker, Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Mace Windu, Ki-Adi-Mundi, Aayla Secura, Yoda, Kit Fisto Luminara Unduli, and Barriss Offee. For the Jedi temple level for CIS, Emperor Palpatine, Count Dooku, General Grievous, Jango Fett, Durge, Darth Maul, and Asajj Ventress, and for the Republic, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Mace Windu, Anakin Skywalker, Yoda, Kit Fisto, Shaak Ti, Aayla Secura, Ki-Adi-Mundi, and Luminara Unduli. For the Empire, Emperor Palpatine, Tarkin (the guy whose "foul stench" Leia recognized when she was brought board on the Death Star), Boba Fett, and of course Darth Vader. For the Rebel Alliance, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, Han Solo, Princess Leia, Chewbacca, Lando Calrissian, Luke Skywalker, and Mara Jade Skywalker.

Palpatine is the Sith lord we've been looking for. After the death of Count Dooku, Anakin became his new apprentice.

That would be cool, but it would make the walkers totally useless, Vader would have to guard them the whole game or Luke would just take them down as soon as they spawned everytime. Cool idea, but not really practical for good game play, maybe something for the single player modes.


But you know Luke Skywalker having a harpoon gun and also doing the same tactic he used in The Empire Strikes Back would give the rebels an advantage.

Might I add, an advantage in a battle the Rebels were doomed to lose.

I agree with both 77 and Clone (forgot full names). But the main problem with all of those suggestions is the fact that there just isn't enough room for all of that stuff on one disc. Unless of course they had 2 disks. One for Galactic Civil War. And the other for the Clone Wars. And like what 77 said more than just the 501st. I would have liked to see Commander Bly's Legion, Commander Cody's Legion, or Commander Gree's Legion. I would also like to see BF3 to be more similar to Battle Field 2 where there is a Commander and you can choose to be part of a squad or be by yourself. And each faction has it's own type of Commando's like the Republic's should be ARC Troopers. The Rebel Alliance's should be... I don't know. The Empire's should be Storm Commandos. And the C.I.S. should have some droid commando... thing. They should also take off that stupid machine gun thing that are on capital ship turrets and Tri-Fighters. Also there should be more capital ships in space battles. And going back to the Commando thing you should also be able to customize your own Commando. They should also take off those slow-shooting blasters on ARC-170 fighters and TIE fighters. And two things that bugged me about space flight other than what was mentioned here was the mixed up ships things. Mainly the bombers for the Republic and C.I.S. I mean why the heck are the Republic using V-wings for bombers? I mean if you go to starwars.com and go to the Data Bank it clearly says that the V-wing is for "ship to ship combat". And the bomber for the C.I.S. is Grevious's fighter. I mean just because the ship is used by a member of the C.I.S. doesn't mean that it is used be ALL of the Sepratists. And finally battles should be more intense.

Darthnave, what about my idea that in the Hoth level, that Luke Skywalker should have a harpoon gun and then do the same tactic from Rebel Strike and The Empire Strikes Back?

It doesn't seem like something you would do in SW:BF, the tactic is too linear and too narrow in scope. It'd basically be an insta-kill.

Is is a thought but like what others said it would make it too easy for the Rebels to win. Unless of course they some hoe made it a challenge. thinking

I got a few ideas.

There needs to be new controls for space vehicles, that are more like the Jedi Starfighter series.

Have a lot more bots on the map at once.

Bring back all the old maps, plus new maps, and new varients of the old maps.

Let us mix the eras, so we can take the rebels agianst the CSI. Or the Republic versus the Empire.

Bigger and better maps.

Since I don't think I've got the time to read 203 posts, I'll just put my thoughts here, and if it's been said already, then too bad.

1) I like the transition from ground-space, even if it does have a loading time.
2) Definately more heroes per team per battle. New heroes would be nice as well. Also, if you could choose which hero you'd like to use on what ever level... i.e. you choose your hero on Mos Eisley, do the same thing for every level.
3) I also like the customizable classes.
4) Hero vs. hero mode... i.e. Palpy against Yoda in the senate office, Vader and Luke on Bespin, you know what I mean.
5) Everyone wants more levels. Several examples on what could be done. How about Grievous's Invisible Hand, there's two locations there: The Spire they fought Dooku in and the cockpit. Also, the Spire Luke fought Vader and Palpy in. You could re-vamp the Death Star level and have both a space battle and that spire.
6) Why'd they take away flying vehicles on ground levels?
7) Mission-based Objectives. You had them in Rise of the Empire, it gave me something to do other than just run around shootin people. The point of BF is the What If factor, keep that to some degree, but give some things to do as well.
8) Interactive enviroments: such as exploding things, trigering chain reactions (say shooting a door panel, that makes some computer malfunction, a turret suddenly goes haywire, and about 10 enemies die at once). It's out there, I know, but it's an example.
9) Who doesn't want smarter AI?
10) I mentioned more levels, and now how about more vast ones? And another thing, the new Geonosis sucked... I'd much prefer going after a spire in the heart of a well-guarded mountain, with tons of vehicles complicating it even more.
11) Mixing and matching factions, think about it: Stormtroopers against Clones. What could be more confusing?
12) More factions! Sith and Mandos would be awesome, as mentioned before!
13) Hunt modes? Sure, running around as a Jawa beating the crap out of Tusken Raiders is fun, but why not Gamorean's? And on Endor, that place was so big it's impossible to find the Ewoks.
14) Rebels need something other than an LAAT/Republic Gunship, that's clones! (Come on, Falcon!)
15) When you pick up canisters from fallen commerades and enemies, you get the most annoying sounds! The little glow's enough indication.
16) Who hasn't asked for more of a story? Rise of the Empire was most definately better than the original, but come on, it ended on Hoth! No Bespin (which should've never been dropped) showed up! You could've suddenly had a switch to the Rebels and bring down the second Death Star.
17) Better space battles is an often occurring thing, but why not have 'destroy the Death Star' levels?
18) I know I'm repeating people, but as mentioned before, I don't have time to read over 200 posts. Anyways, more than one level per planet! Come on, that's one good thing about swbf1.
19) Customizable heroes along with classes would be nice.
20) And finally, anyone like movie clips? Say you're on... Tantive IV and you've got the choke point... say you're the EMP and you're advancing. A clip of Vader's entrance? Then it asks you 'do you want to play as Vader?'.
I know many of the things here have already been said, but I guess the village idiot has to re-state them and speak his mind. Some of you will disagree, but everyone's entitled to his/her own opinion. **Pant** This is the longest post I've ever written, sorry for using so much bandwidth.

Did anyone here read my most recent post? No, not this one. Not the one on the top either, the one on page 8.

Yes, I believe I did. You brought up several good suggestions.

One thing I dislike about Battle Front 2 is the Jedi/Sith controls. I mean, you press the trigger button thing to swing your lightsaber? I mean come on! Couldn't they make some kind of alternate controls for Jedi/Sith Heroes?

They're already different to some degree, or at least that's what Lucasarts wants us to believe. Hey, and what's with the 'Destroy CIS bridge/engines and fly right through the ship?' That's one serious glitching problem. Then you can get out and walk around *above* the hangar. You can also walk to the edge where the white glow is and *jump* out, and you fall (not float) to a ground that doesn't exist!

Has anyone plugged in the invincibility cheat and tried to fly to the planet? You can sit there for hours (trust me, I've tried) and never come close. Then you can turn to the opposite direction and get blinded by the sun hypnotized !

We just have to wait and see. Here are what are my definites of what I would like.
1. More playable heroes like Mara Jade Skywalker (Luke Skywalker's wife), Padme Amidala Skywalker (Luke and Leia's mother), Kit Fisto, Durge, Lando Calrissian, Sith Apprentice Asajj Ventress and Kyle Katarn.
2. Make Anakin Skywalker a hero for the light side.
3. Bring back the maps and environments that were in the first Battlefront but were not in the second Battlefront like Bespin and Rhen Var.
4. Add more maps and environments.
5. On the Hoth Level, give Luke Skywalker a harpoon gun so you can do the same technique from Rogue Squadron Rebel Strike and The Empire Strikes Back.
6. Give Princess Leia her lightsaber from the expanded universe.
7. Add the Jedi Academy with Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade Skywalker as the heroes for the Rebel Alliance and Emperor Palpatine and also Darth Vader as the heroes for the Galactic Empire.
8. The clone troopers looking more appropriate, not just from the 501st legion (also known as Darth Vader's fist).
9. More space battles.
10. Add battles from the movies.
11. Jedi versus Sith duel arenas.
12. Add the Geonosis Arena.
13. More Assault levels.
14. Multiple heroes on most of the maps like for Endor, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Han Solo, and Chewbacca.
