Man, AT-AT's are just damn tough.
How do you kill them shits with everything bearing down on your ass?

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
I've seen one AT-AT drop once, while the other was on 2/3rds. Empire just doesn't really need to do anything; they're always at the front line, with mechs, and as long as they're shooting people they've got it in the bag. Rebels ideally need to capture and hold points to trigger consistent Y-Wing bombardments, while then directing fire on the AT-AT when they're temporarily exposed.

Is there a splitscreen game mod in the beta?
Yes, the Survival mission can be played solo, offline 2 player splitscreen or 2 player online co-op.

Really cool! More images please.
Great! I can try this out with my little bro then, I hope it's as good as it looks.
It will vary by region and platform is all they've said, I think.

That's high praise. GW is one of the best 3PS ever made.

The best thing about any DICE MP game at the beginning is seeing people who cannot control air vehicles continually crash throughout the match.

Limited or unlimited sprint?

Indeed it is. If you liked GW, you'll pick it up straight away.
Unlimited.
When you get to control Vader/Luke, you really can see the enemies fear. They don't know what to do when they walk around the corner and find vader staring at them.

So this happened, and...uh, yeah. I'm surprised there isn't something in place to make a lightsaber duel feel better.

I know what you're saying. They should have taken a look at Chivalry maybe. A nice simple and effective combat system. No doubt they'll improve things for Battlefront 2.
The IQ is really, really bad on those shots. Looks like 900p to me.

I don't feel that at all and I put like 150 hours into Garden Warfare.
This feels exactly like Battlefield to me, even the health pools and TTK feel similar to Battlefield, players in GW are much more durable.

That fight with Luke looked super janky though.

could never
That's because the game is 900p on PS4 I believe.

It definitely feels like battlefield too. It's a combination of both I think.
Or it's a special kind of blurry 1080p, but it's still better than the reported 720p resolution on Xbone.
Can't really blame DICE though, they do what they can with the hardware.

New drivers from Nvidia:
So 720p on Xbox One and 900p on PS4?
Is that confirmed?

I'd say it's on par with Hardline, but to be honest I've never really noticed any drops. It may be better than hardline, certainly better than BF4.
It seems to be possible for the rebels, but you need to be incredibly on point. Like 7 or 8 Ys at every point. Otherwise there is just not enough time to do any damage.
It's damn smooth.
If there are drops, they are unnoticeable.

I'm still waiting on a code. I dunno how everyone else got one. Was there a sign up process? I've had the game pre-ordered for a while.
Also, someone is selling a decal to turn your PS4 into the Battlefront PS4 that's for pre-order. Wish they'd make a Stormtrooper one.

Because you asked nicely, more PS4 .PNG captures, this time Drop Zone.
I tried unsuccesfully to get a good capture of the thermal imploder, but DAT SOUND EFFECT.

I think it's tomorrow.
insult? if it really plays like GW then it's awesome. Does third person camera works as well as GW too?

Almost got the hook on an AT-AT with a snowspeeder, but I instantly died even though I was "balancing" the ship as it said to with r-stick.
It was doing its turns but the circle put me straight into the mountain. Not sure if I have left stick controls.

Yeah. Very close in that respect. It sits between GW and Battlefield in terms of gameplay.
New drivers from Nvidia:
Nvidia are really hitting the perfect timing with their drivers in the past years.
I can't wait to get home to pre-load this. Does it unlock at midnight in Europe on PC?
Thanks. Well now I'm actually looked forward to try it. I really love GW.

I'm not an NPC. And neither are we.
The dogfights are awful in this game. Can you barrel roll or anything. It almost always devolves into us flying circles around each other until one guy gets bored or someone gets an ally. Literally the worst dogfights Ive ever played.

It's game breaking for me being 900p. I could overlook it when BF4 was out...2 years ago but now...with a game that seems like a reskin...hype evaporated...

Thank you! I can't wait to try it.

This be me...
I tried battlefield for the first time ever last night in anticipation of this and could i get my helicopter or plane to go forward or back. Nope. I was good at pointing the nose towards the sky and crashing back to the ground though
