Let's not kid ourselves here though, a Beta is coming, and it will still be the Hoth map, I guarantee it.

I agree to an extent. But i rather have some unedited gameplay from a bad player than no footage.
Dice should just allow people to upload stuff. Or maybe allow that youtube money whores to upload some footage.
I haven't watched all 3 videos here yet, but from what I have watched, the second video has some flying. It starts a bit before the 16 minute mark.
I would not be surprised if people like lvlcap are allowed to post some stuff next week.

I think you can play it offline too. Via bot matches or horde mode or something like that. That plus people want to see how it runs on their PC. I for one sure want to.
That rebel scum getting destroyed hehe
Oh man that gif is great, so much going on.

The main gameplay mode in the original Battlefronts were what is called Conquest in modern day Battlefield. So expecting conquest to be the main mode isn't unreasonable as you're making it out to be.

Anybody who has this and a GTX 970, how does it run? Will I be able to play it at 60 fps on lower settings?

In SWBF1 the ONLY mode in the game was Conquest, exactly the same as Battlefield conquest.
SWBF2 the main mode was still Conquest.
I really hope that the Supremacy mode is Conquest.
not sure if this is a serious post...

You can say I was a little intimidated by the reveal videos and such. I now realize how silly I sounded lol
Thank you. If anything, this game looks to be just as optimized as Battlefield 4 was. It's pretty cool the various setups that my buddies have (ranging from very low end to even higher end than what I have) and pretty much all of us can run it at high+ settings at over 60 fps. DICE are great when it comes to the technical side of things.
I can get largely 60fps on Ultra @1080 with a 7970GE and a 2500k , so Yeah , you'll be able to get 60 no problems at all.

I got an email and I was super excited... but it was only an email telling me there was a Closed Alpha going on for Star Wars...
Yup. Pretty much this.
I know, I know, this game isn't a true sequel to those games, but Conquest WAS Battlefront. It's essential to the franchise. Not having Conquest in a Battlefront game is like not having TDM in a CoD game.

Don't be surprised if Supremacy is akin to Air Supremacy from BF3, which is pretty much a mode designed foe dogfighting.

That's Fighter Squadron. Separate mode.

I noticed other playable alien species such as Quarren and Sullustan. Can you say which ones are there?

Hmm, don't know if I'd go with a Rodian. Your opponent would always be able to shoot first.
Well, until the patch. But nobody likes that patch.
it's like horde mode but not as good as ME/GeOW one...

The one available is a survival one. 6 waves of enemies. Took me about 10 minutes on my own. It was fun.
Rodian, Sullustan and Quarren are all I've seen so far.

Do I have to buy both the regular edition of the game in addition to the collectors edition of the game to get these?

Someone with access who might be willing to let me try it out for a bit, DM me.
I know some people on GAF have been generous like this before.

Reminds me BF4 Operation locker - trying to get inside with explosives because it's basically a massive standoff.That rebel scum getting destroyed hehe

I'm happy they finally managed competent controller support for a change, from what I hear. I can't tell you how worried about that I was. That, and third person mode sounds awesome.
I assure you, it's better than that.
There are multiple points of entry, sneaking around and getting behind people has been really effective for me.
Rebels also have to chose between defending themselves and damaging the walker.
You go in first, I'll cover you.
