Really don't want greatest hits of the Star Wars saga again. I want an original story that takes us to previously unseen or relatively unknown locales (I'm sick of seeing the same few planets), that also fits into the canon quite nicely. Nothing that has a huge impact on the universe overall, maybe something a little more limited in terms of scale.
Same here. Battlefront 1 has hardly any new areas to it. Battlefront 2 is just a rehash of the first game which has areas from the 3rd movie. The only two games that tried something new were the PSP games and even then they still fallowed the movies slightly. Something completely new would be refreshing. I have no problem about having areas like Hoth for the MP but when it comes to the campaign I want to see all new planets, not playing a movie battle.
If rumors prove true, we'll get a mission or two from The Clone Wars.

its really the helmet that's gonna make or break it, for me personally.
Hopefully is ROTJ helmet. The lower brow make it look more "menacing".

Don't know, don't care. I just hope if they do end up doing it, "being gay" or "transexual" isn't all their character has to offer.

Is it really that much of a reveal when we already know would Stromtroopers look like?
I think the intent is to show off the game's graphical quality.
That doesn't mean a lot nowadays. Remember Watch Dogs?
That's true, but DICE's games usually don't shoot for unreasonable graphical quality, and it's not as though the model is a example of super high quality lighting and reflective surfaces. THat's where Watch Dogs ended up faring poorly. This is just a stormtrooper, and a matte one at that.
Seeing a model that's not interacting with the environment in actual gameplay doesn't mean anything. And if if they did do that, they'd be showcasing the PC version, and then try to pass it off as "These are the real graphics of the Xboner/Ps4!", when really it looks like this:

 I go on that site, but only frequent the Star Wars TV section. Everywhere else seems to be filled with autistic people.

That's like how Lucas had the Temuera Morrison re-record all of Boba Fett's dialogue for his fancy Original Trilogy. Well that meant the original Boba Fett actor went uncredited in those versions, and his role in the movies was basically erased.
Not only that but the old Boba Fett sounded 10x cooler. Better voice acting, and he sounded more menacing.
Morrison sounds better to me.

I want to play as a droid dough 
I would doubt that. Then again, it is DICE. They're used to having soulless, emotionless characters for campaign.

In Battlefront I, you followed the big battles of the saga. In Battlefront II, you followed the journal entries of a 501st soldier up until the battle of Hoth. Anything that you guys particularly want to see for the Battlefront reboot this year?
The game takes place after Star Wars Episode VI: A New Hope, meaning the main character you play as will probably be a regular Stromtrooper or Rebellion soldier. Seeing as all the clones have either retired or have died out at this point due to accelerated aging, you probably won't be playing as one.
To be honest, I would love to see a Bad Company style squad that you are grouped with throughout the campaign, bringing that sweet Imperial justice across the galaxy to Rebel scum.

Why are you guys discussing these comics? Hayden in ROTJ is not canon, and neither is anything coming out after Disney's purchase of the franchise.
Look, the comics feel more like Star Wars than the EU stuff did. Need I remind you of Trioculous?
Skippy the Jedi droid is obviously the best Star Wars character.

I hope to shit they don't add that Battlepack crap they did in BF4 and BF: Hardline.

This is a good thing. They need to focus on actually doing it right before cramming too much shit into the game. We will see if they can actually get the gameplay right, get the maps right, get the balance between factions right. If they are able to show competency with this series and it continues, then they can add other stuff in.
Good point. Though, I won't be suprised when we get a Prequel Era DLC

Allows Anakin Skywalker to appear as he did when he was not corrupted by the darkside
Nah, he was like that when he was corrupted.
Sebastian Shaw ghost appeared as he did because he was redeemed.
Anakin looked like that for a good year before Revenge of the Sith.
And during that time he exhibited behavior foreshadowing his eventual fall to the Dark Side. Shaw makes more sense.
In the context that George was using, I don't see how a slightly angry Anakin is worse than an Anakin that killed hundreds of Jedi and innocents, laid waste to multiple planets, and was consumed by the darkside, but okay. Just because he killed the Emperor didn't make him good. I bet you if he survived, he would still have the tendency to choke a bitch for getting in his way. You don't just rid yourself of the darkside like that.
Outside of that context though, yeah I guess, but now we can have Anakin in more movies.
But he was redeemed at the end of ROTJ, hence why he's even there.
Throughout the later seasons of TCW he chokes people, exhibits intense jealousy, etc.
Meh. He's less shitty as Anakin than he was as Vader. He was still shitty. My question is, why is Anakin even there?
Did he learn it somehow, because it's a taught skill as we learned in The Clone Wars. Or does he just get a free pass because he's The Chosen One? He's heading to Obi-wan's shack on Tatooine in the next issue of Darth Vader, so maybe we find out there.
It's issue #7 that he travels to Tatooine.
Oh, thought it was the next one. Either way, I hope we find out. Maybe there'll be a "do this combo to make yourself younger" type thing that Obi-wan and Yoda didn't want because they're too modest. Edit: I was half right. He goes to Obi-wan's shack in Star Wars #4

The problem with Hayden is this.
Why the fuck is he so special?
Why doesn't Yoda or Obi-Wan get to return to their younger selves? I mean think about it. Anakin is all young again but gets to hang around all day with his master, and yoda, who both stay ancient.
That's the definition of awkward even more beyond "Oh hey master, sorry for killing you."
It is supposed to show Anakin before he turned to the dark side. The problem with this is that he was redeemed and was no longer a Sith when he saved Luke and killed Palpatine.
In which case my point still stands.
If their ghosts are appearing at their age of death, and Anakin was considered to be on the light side at the time of his death, then he should likewise appear as his current age.
In this sense he's just being a douchebag to Obi and Yoda by appearing as his younger self which caused all that damn misery and brought the Jedi down.
"You special edition mother fucker"

It depends on how long I've known them and the relationship we have. I consider one to be my friend, and I've known him for 8+ years and talk to him on a weekly/daily basis.

I'm sorry but I don't care about the claims of a bunch of overly sensitive manchildren.
Then why do you use the Plinkett reviews as a base for your argument? Sounds like you just care about the claims that support your way of thinking.
I use them as a base for my argument because they make very effective points as to the flaws of the prequel trilogy. Some more than others, but good points nonetheless.
I guess I'll make a thread on them in a bit then.
I look forward to it.
This is taking a while.

providing useful commentary, lessons, and above all, laughs
Except he doesn't do any of this. If your defense of a character is, "you would like him if you were 9", you've got a shitty defense.
I'm not 9 and don't have an issue with the character, so that obviously isn't true.
The article you quoted is just wrong. His slapstick humor slows down the pace of the first act, and he doesn't provide any useful narrative or lessons. He provides filler in the form of Gungans to get the characters to the next point of the plot. He "saves the day" in the most contrived way for a conflict we don't even care about which has zero impact on anything in the series, and even that isn't true: Jar Jar's actions accomplish nothing, he ends up surrendering the entire Gungan army, and the battle is ultimately won by Anakin.
No, he didn't work for his specific purpose. He had no specific purpose. Except for getting the Jedi to Otoh Gunga, he could literally be removed from the film with no consequences. He was the necessary slapstick character and advanced the plot because of lazy writing, but that doesn't excuse the fact the he was annoying and irrelevant.
You mean that you don't care about. And by that logic, C-3P0 is a bad character to due to being annoying to people and not actually progressing the plot at all. C-3P0 is a character that doesn't need to exist either.

Hayden ghost never made sense to me.
Why isn't everyone else young?
The excuse George gave was that the ghosts embodied the light side of the force. Since when Vader died, his Sebastian Shaw body was still corrupted by that darkside. Him killing the Emperor redeemed him, but didn't throw out all his darkside power. It's like when you take someone off meth right after they took a dose. They don't have it anymore, but they are still effected by it. So his true embodiement of the lightside would be right before Revenge of the Sith, when he looked like Hayden.

who the fuck actually wants to be reminded about the prequels?
