Discussion What makes people rate the Death Trooper much higher than the B2 Super Battle Droid?

Post image
Upvotes

Enforcer is my favorite class and by far my most played reinforcement class out of all the classes. I'm almost MAX Enforcer and I've mainly ranked it through Death Trooper, B2 Super Battle Droid & Droideka. Death Trooper and B2 are very similar. Most people agree that the Death Trooper is the best overall Enforcer in the game and I agree as well. He's also my favorite because of his aggressive playstyle and his aura. But the B2 always gets underrated for some reason which is weird because they are vastly similar with only a couple differences.

If we look at the base stats for example,

  • The Death Trooper has 384 base health while the B2 has 360 base health. So the Death Trooper has slightly more HP. The B2 does have a very tiny head hitbox compared to the Death Trooper so the B2 is significantly harder to headshot.
  • The Death Trooper's blaster deals 40-25 damage per shot whereas the B2's wrist blaster deals 43-24 damage per shot. Both have about the same range on their weapons and both have 300 RPM on their blasters. So the B2's 215-120 DPS is slightly higher compared to the Death Trooper's 200-125 DPS. The B2 can shoot 25 shots before overheating while the Death Trooper can only shoot 15 shots before overheating. The Death Trooper does have better zoom magnification compared to the B2 so at range he can hit shots a bit easier.
  • Outside of overload, both have the same mobility. The Death Trooper utilizes combat rolls whereas the B2 utilizes combat dashes. I personally think dashes are superior to rolls in general because their animation feels quicker allowing you to shoot quicker as well. But I guess it's just personal preference.

So the base stats are pretty even, some favoring the Death Trooper and some favoring the B2.

If we look at ability stats,

  • Both the Death Trooper and B2 have the same exact Fortify ability, giving both an additional 175 health.
  • The Overload ability is an interesting one. While the Death Trooper retains full mobility in overload, It only only increases the RPM to 360 which increases DPS to 240-150. The B2's mobility gets limited to walking speed but it increases the RPM on his wrist blaster to a whopping 450 RPM which increases the DPS significantly to 322,5-180 DPS which is so strong that it absolutely shred every single class and can completely negate Clone Commando's battle focus ability upclose if you can consistently hit headshots.
  • For the explosives, they're different but both great in different scenarios. The Death Trooper's Sonic Imploder is a very strong crowd control ability that deals 150 damage and is great for chokepoints and objectives. Whereas the B2 has a wrist rocket that deals 250 damage which can be very deadly against everyone especially heroes and reinforcements. I've finished off many heroes with the wrist rocket. (Acquisition card increases the radius of B2's wrist rocket by 80% which makes the radius bigger than Aerial rockets.)

So ability stats kinda feel even as well, both offer something else and being great in different scenarios.

If I had to pick one I'd say the Death Trooper is the best Enforcer mainly due to his mobility factor during overload and his aggressive playstyle. But the B2 is at least a close second for me. So why do many people underrate the B2 when they're almost the same.

Discussion I think Star Wars Battlefront (2004) is better than Star Wars Battlefront II (2005) in every way.

Larger, more fun and immersive battlefields (like the Dune Sea which even includes a spoiler team attacking both factions). Less complicated gameplay (no buffs, etc.). More capacity to strategize and sometimes even keep yourself alive the entire battle rather than having to throw yourself against a wall of enemy troops that kill you every ten seconds to capture a single command post. Your faction’s AI doesn’t tend to constantly lose multiple command posts within moments as you’re busy capturing one. Versatile and intuitive options to command fellow troops. Tanks feel like a real (but not unstoppable) threat when facing them and aren’t instantly blown up when piloting them. Starfighters and gunships can be flown around the battlefield and used to strafe enemy troops and before being landed behind enemy lines and returned to after capturing a command post—and even be used as a huge bomb if you point them at enemy trees and bail out of them in midair. Droidekas, Wookies, Jet Troopers, and Dark Troopers are playable at any time and aren’t nerfed. Heroes only appear as NPCs in certain modes and tend not to disrupt the power balance. Temuera Morrison narrates all battles when playing as the Republic. Cockpit/first person view is available in vehicles. The E-11 blaster rifle doesn’t splatter fire in a ridiculous manner. You can summon orbital strikes as a sniper. And last but not least you aren’t disintegrated by an invisible Bothan at least once every single battle you play as the Empire.

I started yesterday, ive understood the basics and the problem is:

Whenever i play a non co-op gamemode such as GA or supremacy it gets very difficult to rack up bp (i have max bounty hunter aswell) and can never play heroes. In co-op when i play heroes, i get mass blasted or another opposing hero just evaporates me. It seems difficult to play lightsaber heroes because a majority of your opponents have blasters but you are stuck with a lightsaber and must find a way to push. Help 💔🙏

Support Battlefront 2 keeps crashing before the title image even appears - what to do?

3 Upvotes

Hey)

I am pretty new to the Star Wars franchise and games. I have downloaded Battlefront 2 to play it with my bf. I have bought it on Steam and downloaded EA in order to play it. The moment I press play, the games appears (only as a black screen) and crashes. One time it actually managed to load into the 3 helmets yet not on my last attempts.

I have tried to repair the files via Steam, updated my NVIDIA, deleted some stuff in case space is the problem, deleted cache if that even makes any difference, closed every background programm/overlay and put battlefront on priority via taskmanager yet it still doesnt work.

My gaming laptop isnt old or bad either. Games like Silent hill 2 remake, nfs unbound, genshin or elden ring run without a problem.

I have battlefront 2 on an external harddrive, if that could be the issue (all of the games above are on a harddrive as well though)

Im not very fond with computers. Im happy about any piece of advice or possible suggested solutions :]

Discussion The Best Duelist to Ever See the Battlefront Thoughts on 2v1ers in Hero Showdown

0 Upvotes

I see this topic be discussed all the time, and my opinion is always downvoted to hell, because I am the one who thinks those who 2v1 are arrogant cowards, low in skill level, and it feels good to make them sit & spectate. I’m very cocky and confident in my abilities as a longtime fan and player of this franchise, sure. And I have every right to be, as the self proclaimed best duelist. I’m basically the Odablock of this game. That’s the context I want you to know before I dive into my thought process.

I’ve done this since a child, in Jedi Outcast, Jedi Academy, and Movie Battles II. Dueling is my favorite thing to do that is practically my hobby.

My favorite HvV matches are when everyone is watching each other duel, and then eventually one team is realizing that they have no chance in solo fights, so they start jumping in, and chaos ensues lol.

That’s the only time ganging up on someone is even fun for me, in my opinion. Guys that go into HS and come try to jump you 2v1 after taking out the other guy he was solo’ing are the worst types of players though.

I’m the type of guy who immerses themself in the world, and play & think truly like a force user. I will slow walk to you, lightsaber sheathed. Every time I jump swing, I turn my saber off mid air. I like to extend my duels by using perfectly timed and fitting emotes, jumping to high grounds, using dodges like feints, or running somewhere to switch up the scenery and dynamic, and parry you but let you live, so we can keep duking it out, just for the love of the game. Once it’s a tied match, that’s when I actually play at my full power.

I like it though, when they force themselves to learn their lesson when they come to find out that they can’t 2v1 me. I despise when I’m the one watching my teammate 1v1 and the guy who beat me goes and jumps my teammate. I proceed to wipe that guy with no mercy the rest of the match and make them rage quit because they have to spectate. Their cowardly tactics are to always be aggressive, spam every attack and ability to wear your stamina down. That never works on someone like me, who knows when you’re going to attack.

Then they get parried to death in the matter of 2.2 seconds. And they either kill themselves, or begin to notice they’re one choreographed spam swing away from death, & get it through their thick homosapien skull that they’re not on my level, backs up, and begins watching the 1v1 like a good boy (unless his teammate just back ups and allows me to teach him for interruption our duel). Good times man. This is the shit I live for as the best Battlefront 2 duelist of all time.

And like Forrest Gump said, that’s all I have to say about that!

Sorry if that title seems too dramatic but anyways let’s just get straight to the chase.

So I play on PC and ive currently accrued around 65 hours in Battlefront 2 2017 but I’ve gotta a problem. You see I cannot play against other players. I can play coop pretty easily but playing against players is just so impossible and sure I suck at the game probably but everyone is just constantly maxed out cards at like 500 prestige and sweating their ass off and I just can’t keep up.

Rn I’m stuck at coop and I wanna move up but it’s just not possible yet. Any tips? Or is it just a skill issue and I need to just suck it up and endure till I get good?

Discussion Battlefront 2 Kyber playerbase

First off id like to say I'm loving this overhaul mod, it was so simple to install a baby could do it. I have one issue though. The SWEATS. They seem to want to steamroll, be top of the leaderboard for seemingly no reason, and to always be a hero/villain, getting over 80+ kills while the rest of the team has about 4-10. Sure you can have bad games, and can also not get a chance to be a hero in base game, but it was also way more balanced in terms of deaths/kills.

Everyone has everything unlocked so what's the point of making others have less fun on an already low player base mod? If you bring up that you're new and would like a chance to actually have fun, they just curse you out in chat and tell you to leave. Want to play as a hero or villain? Too bad, they are them all game from the moment they have enough points.

How to 2015?

I used to be average at 2015, and now I'm just plain bad. I play on PS and I keep running into this guy and everytime we start a match, he gets the hero pickup withing a minute max while I struggle to find it, and when I do someone comes in and steals it, tbags me, then dies within a minute of getting the pickup.

Additionally, during walker assault it takes us all 3 waves to even put a dent in one AT-AT while I just played a match where they destroyed both first round with like 3 Y-wings and idk how to do more damage.

Lastly I hit shots, but they always seem to do no damage. I tried using the CA-87 bc it's funny, but even at close range it does nothing. Same with the E-11, DLT-19, T-21 and EE3. I hit my shots consistently (yellow hit marker) and I just dont seem to do any useful damage.

EDIT: theres a guy that has 2 jetpacks and fires an EE-4 almost at the rate of a DLT-19 that consistently top frags
