This game really is a Halo Clone. Did you ever play the multiplayer? It feels a lot like Halo 1-2

It did, then they cancelled it and turned it into a book.

>>284969103
Fucking what? did the book ever explain what the fuck happened to Sev?
>>
>>284968523
I second this, having recently played it. Every enemy is a fucking bullet sponge, and you don't get enough high powered shit and grenades to make them any easier. For a game trying so hard to be a star wars equivalent to halo, it sure fucking sucked at it.
>>
>>284969375
Ded

They should do a Star Wars GTA or Uncharted like that 1313 game looked like
>>
Wasn't there supposed to be an Imperial Commando?

That shit would've been fucking great, I really would've preffered it because quite frankly I'm having a hard time enjoying anything that was based on the prequel trilogy. I really want to get into Republic Commando, but every time I see a battle droid or something I start thinking about how fucking awful the prequel films were and get pissed off.

It was probably canned because there may have been an issue with mercilessly slaughtering Rebels.

What ever happened to 1313? That shit looked real cool, like a Star Wars version of the Prey 2 we never got either.

Cancelled once Disney bought Star Wars.

Project was cancelled when Disney took over. They canceled every project they were making.

Disney hates anything that can't be marketed to children.

So they took it out back and shot it

This game had the sickest lore once you got into the books.

Perhaps Imperial Commando is the secret Star Wars EA game Visceral is working on right now. There is hope.

No i didnt have internet back then.
And its not a Halo clone.
Better and also very original or creative whatever you prefer.

kek. Now talking seriously, it's a bad game, but it's one of the best star wars FPS. Probably is the only one (yeah, you can shoot in Jedi Academy, but you will mostly use your lightsaber).

>>284969736
>mercilessly slaughtering rebels
In Battlefront 2 the campaign followed the clones that became stormtroopers (501st). So i don't think that would be a huge problem.

But it does depend how graphic they want it to be though

Because most Star Wars fans only want to smack their jedi lightdicks into each other.

Well get used it to.
You cant do anything about that HK-47 is the greatest SW character ever created.

Also Battlefront was primarily in first person and third person was a nice feature but only useful on vehicles.
>>
>>284971768
It wasn't as good as most of /v/ says. If it wouldn't be on the Star Wars universe then /v/ would consider it a mediocre game.
I forgot about Battlefront. But it's a completely different game.
>>
>>284971259
>Probably is the only one
Ever heard of Dark Forces 1 and 2? Also, all three of them are great.
>>
>>284969021
Did you even play Republic Commando online? It's an Unreal engine game, it plays nothing like Halo. The grenades being weighty as fuck single handedly made it play completely different from Halo.
>>
>>284968409
What if the BF3 single player is about Delta Squad?
>>
>>284969525
Learn to focus fire.

Also they wanted to make enemies scary because you're not an overpowered monk with magic powers. Droidekas are an annoyance to Jedi, but downright terrifying for ground soldiers.

All the books, save for imperial commando are pre kashyyyk. Karen 'whats lore' Travis wasn't allowed to touch on what happened to Sev because lucas arts still didn't know what they wanted to do with him. He's still in limbo.

I hope to god not, I respect DICE but they can't direct a singleplayer game for shit. The only studio I'd trust with this franchise would be either the original devs or Naughty Dog or some shit.
>>
>>284969525
Git gud. EMP grenades and later the grenade lanucher makes super battle droids easy as fuck. Flying genosians are countered with focus fire and sniper rifles. Droidekas gets rekt with EMPs and maneuvering (running around them). Just stab the trandos and shoot the battle droids.

That's the whole point that made RC so much better than just another generic Halo rip off you had to command your squad, take cover and coordinate your attacks.

The romance arc wasn't too bad in the first couple of books, it kinda felt forced, yeah but there was some logic behind it. The stories really shine in the characterization of the commandos and their Mandalorian leaders.

Not really. It was default mapped to some horribly retarded key like c or ctrl.

I don't like hunting or playing for the empire, it feels lame and empty. Just my opinion though.

Not really, but then again, star wars has the best licensed games of all time so it's not an easy title to take.

Nope. Only the first book was any good. The rest were all shittier than the last.
