Death Star?

[Stupendous-Man]

I really really want there to me a Death Star themed level. Like on a scale of 1 - 100 it's 201. Either being ep.4 Trench attack style or ep.6 fly into the heart of the mighty planet killer and blow up the reactor. I just hope that on some white board in the EA offices it says 'Death Star DLC". Cause what a missed opportunity if that iconic Star Wars Battle wasn't in this game. Death Star VR! Who's with me on this???

Squadrons is set after the battle of Endor

Yeah, the trailer states that the 2nd Death Star has been destroyed, so this is after Endor. No more Death Stars, but that doesn't mean they couldn't make a DLC.

Rogue Squadron II has a mission where you fly inside the Death Star and destroy it, though. You may like this.

I think it would be really cool if they made DLC for "legendary missions". First Death Star, second Death Star, Hoth battle, Han Solo astroid field etc. They could even be coop for ships with tail gunners like the Hoth speeder and Falcon.

Oh. Well we can't have it then. If the game's story setting is set AFTER Return of the Jedi then there is no way we could have content from a movie that takes place before the games setting. That would be too confusing for gamers. My Bad. I should have known better than to break with story lore for the sake of wanting something cool from Star Wars. But hey, they can add in Star Killer base. Everyone loves Star Killer Base!

sadly they ruined the game with only 5v5.. it will feel dull and boring. but i will still preorder. its starwars and vr after all.

Devs seem to happy with the era they have choose to focus on.

For example, the devs said that the upgrades they have added into the game that the ships in question don't actually have, can be explained by the Empire starting to tinker and experiment with the current ships more now that the fight is starting to go uphill.

They also don't have any plans to continuously add content or DLCs.

Just because this takes place after RotJ doesn't mean we can't have a death star level. It could be a separate play mode. Really why limit fun because of realism? It's a freaking game...

I would really like to see this happen too.

I really need to find a working rom and emulator to run that and RS 3. I bought RS for PC here and loved playing that again.

How is that ruined ? That statement makes no sense.. they have clearly designed the game from the ground up around that number of players.

wich is boring lol. its like design battlefield 6 with 8 vs 8 instead of 60 people. have you not noticed how huge the maps are in this starwars game?..
imagine you chase 1 guy down BOOM, then you spend probably 20-40 seconds trying to find another. Yet.. thats not the huge issue.. starwars battles is known for lasers flying everywhere/things happening on the screen.
this looks like any other fly fight game except with lasers and x-wings.
where is the beautiful action?. 60 players or even 50 would be to much you would die before you had time to do anything. but at least 10 vs 10 would be nice.
either way, i already preordered the game and i think it will be Fun anyway,.. but it could have been alot better..

Now,, in another thread i read about them having AI enemies on both sides while playing multiplayer to make it seem more action filled and dynamic... if thats the case. i totaly retreat my thoughts and lay down my battle axe.

even if the ai is more stupid and easy to kill its still a nice addition.

That comparison is kinda dumb, makes me think you have never even plaid battlefield.

It would most likely be a free DLC they put out on May 4th next year or year after.

Because it's 5v5? That means it will probably be on a much smaller scale. I don't expect 32 vs 32, but at least 16 v 16. It shows that the scope is aimed at small scale levels.
