What do you guys think the game will be rated?

Pretty sure it's confirmed to be T.

is it just me, or is the top of the helmet pointing a different direction from the way the face plate is pointing

It is. It's because they're basing the in-game model off of the actual props, which weren't completely symmetrical. In this case, they used the Return of The Jedi helmet. This is my major complaint. If it were an ANH or TESB helmet, it would look fine. But when they were making the ROTJ helmets, the mold collapsed, and thus all the stormtrooper helmets in that movie are even more asymmetrical, looking "squeezed" on one side.

Here's a comparison showing what I'm talking about.

Their decision to use the ROTJ helmet absolutely baffles me. The previous helmets looked much better. Furthermore, the grey and black "mouth-grill" of the ANH helmet looks much better and is far more iconic.

So, this action figure of Clone Commander Wolffe will be sold at Celebration this year. It's very interesting, because based upon the design of the armor, I would say this is during the Imperial era. Especially since if looks like a varriant of this armor from Star Wars: Rebels.



So, we might still see some clones kicking around in Rebels. Pretty cool.

Nope. That particular set of Wolffe's armor is from the first episode of TCW Season Six's Yoda Arc, when they find Sifo-Dyas' ship.

EDIT: Here's an image:



Link, the image appears really tiny in my post: http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140313025617/starwars/images/b/bf/KoonWolffeFind775519-TLO.png

So while we wait for a new pic, what's your guys's favorite segments of the saga? Divide it up into PT, OT, Rebels, TCW, ST, EU, Legends.

For me it's:

TCW>PT>OT>Rebels>EU>Legends>ST

(I prefer OT story wise, but PT wins me over with how much it expands on the universe)
OT>ST>Rebels>Legends

I don't know what the other ones you mentioned are.
EDIT: EU is legends. Are you talking about canon content that's not the movies? I would lump that with OT, going by Era.
The other ones are Prequel Trilogy and The Clone Wars.

And I wouldn't really put the EU with OT, considering a good portion of it is during the Dark Times Era.

And all Legends is EU, but not all EU is Legends. People are starting to categorize them differently as such now.
I refer to canon content (outside movies) as being part of the New canon. EU is Legends. New material outside the movies isn't being referred to as EU anymore, and to avoid confusion I don't think anything canon should be called EU.

Lol you seem to consistently underestimate how much of a Star Wars fan I am. Believe me, you don't have to explain anything at all to me.

Well, I don't really know you :3
We've discussed Star Wars on here several times, and I like to think I've proven myself pretty well-read regarding Star Wars.

I know what is canon. I know Legends/EU isn't, but I'm pretty well versed in it (glad it's gone though). I know what PT and TCW stand for, I was making a joke.
I've been reading all the Marvel comics, and I've read several of the canon novels.

Turns out we play as this guy in campaign you guys



Still more story than Battlefield 4.
Battlefield 4 was probably one of, if not the, worst campaigns I've ever played. The writing was so damn awful.

Speaking of bad wririting, a new Junior novel for Rebels came out about Zare. Looking like the Empire find out there was a nigger in the army.


Lol. Can't be any worse than those Boba Fett junior novels.

I've been reading the Darth Vader comics to build hype

Well, what do you think? I like them a lot, personally.
I'm on #3 and it's awesome so far. These are canon, right? It's nice seeing him be a total BAMF again
I like that they adhere to ANH, and don't make Vader supreme commander of the fleet right off the bat. In ANH he wasn't as powerful as he is in TESB. Seeing Vader do some scheming on his own is really cool.

Here's what's canon:
Films
All Marvel Star Wars comics (released 2015-forward, thus far we have Star Wars, Darth Vader, Princess Leia, and Kanan: The last padawan)
The Clone Wars
Rebels
Darth Maul: Son of Dathomir
James Luceno's Tarkin (novel)
Heir to The Jedi (novel)
Lords of The Sith (novel, unreleased)
A New Dawn (novel)
Star Wars: Aftermath (post ROTJ novel, unreleased)

And then everything going forward.

I want to read everything Sith and Empire related, they are the most interesting I think. I find the Rebels pretty boring tbh. Need more Bounty Hunter stories too.

Then you want:
- Tarkin ( mainly Empire shizzle )
- Lords of the Sith ( Palpatine and Vader have some good dialouge just from the preview. Vader also remembers Ahsoka and such)
- Darth Vader comics (Sith planning against eachother is always fun)

Yeah I recommended those. He's already reading the DV comics.

I was pointing out everything that had been released thus far, I included the unreleased novels because there a re a load of similar sounding ones out there.
Besides, all anybody's interested in is the MP, and there's no story to speak of at this point.

I'm getting it mainly for story. It's Star Wars, so even if DICE does their usual campaign shill, it will still be awesome.
There was actually a leak regarding the game's story.
Spoiler
The game's story will involve something generic and of little consequence to the rest of the Star Wars universe.

Seriously, you do know that "DICE's usual shill" is bad, right? Not trying to be super negative or rain on your parade but the last game with a good story was BC2 in 2010.

Story wise it's usually pretty shit (other than BC2, but that story was a fun little romp due to the characters, the plot itself was garbagio), however visual wise DICE campaigns are very pretty.
Indeed. What I'm saying is, even if it is Star Wars the multiplayer in all likelihood is going to be the reason to play it.

I would definitely recommend Tarkin then. I don't know when Lords of The Sith releases, though.

You are literally the personification of reddit.
What does reddit have to do with greetexting?
Not just in regards to this.
For one, there are some pretty funny greentext stories out there.
You also generally behave in a pretty humorless manner, and express what I would describe as frankly anti theistic opinions, and are on the far left of the political spectrum.

These are all traits of some of the more... Notorious subreddits.

So it's a stormtrooper with a shoulder pad.

Why the hype for a pre-rendered model?

Look at the tubing connecting the filters or whatever to the backpack. Look at the spacetrooper figure being sold at Celebration, where BF is being revealed. This points to space combat making a definite return, possibly with the addition of zero-g infantry boarding actions.

I think space battles just got confirmed. Those troopers would be the marines in Battlefront 2 for space battles.
Imperial Marines was my first thought. The presence of additional gear makes me think that infantry may have more of a role in the space battles now. I really hope we have zero-g infantry combat in some form.
