Battlefront 3 Legacy - Updated HUD, Animations and More

[@mycubiclepenguin868]

Sticking with a project of this sort for so long must be difficult, both from a technical standpoint and an emotional one. So far, the results are absolutely magnificent. Anyone who has ever wished to play the cancelled SWBF3 owes you and everyone who has worked on this mod their most sincere gratitude.

[@El_Fabricio]

I appreciate your kind words :D Working on this project resolves a lot around suffering. The emotional damage is inflicted and real. The result is worth the psychological scar it has left... Thank you for being a part of our community :D

it's crazy how the people behind battlefront have never pulled off a coruscant map. we see its vastness in the movies but never really get to explore it. this is awesome

The people behind the Star Wars mod Galactic Contention for the MilSim game Squad did an excellent good job depicting Coruscant and its scale. Look up the short clip “Galactic Contention deploying over Coruscant”.

[@shoe_gaze]

@@spud7402 oh yeah. i've seen tons and tons of fans who've done incredible work. but i've rarely seen an actual official released star wars game pull it off. and it's such a waste

In one of the psp games there's a Coruscant map

[@isaksteelecomedies]

This is beautiful. It's like an actual battlefield out there rather than little solo conflicts that the modern battlefront games have.

[@ImOnGearSoWhat]

I have a high end pc and yet I only play old modded games like this, because they give me more enjoyment than the current games out rn. Thanks for your hard work

[@El_Fabricio]

You're welcome!

[@killatortilla8276]

This is the way. I have a 4090 and I don’t play anything recent. Dark souls remastered, ps2 and Xbox emulation has been on the menu lately. Hell I was playing Spartan total warrior not long ago. I love pc for allowing us to play our older games better than ever before in 4K, with a modern wireless controller! Dead rising play through was a blast. New games mostly suck.

[@FabioJackson]

when this game stars getting out of hand companies are gonna try to shut it down. this is huge

[@El_Fabricio]

They may try. I don't care what they want. I can move to Russia if I have to. This mod has to be finished and released. Because that is what I want.

[@FabioJackson]

@@El_Fabricio love the passion man you make me and others very happy reliving all these great memories

[@U9DATE]

Holy shit, I just read the description. You guys are actually planning to fully create the Campaign at some point in the future? That is incredible! I thought it would have been wishful thinking a couple months ago but I’m just so excited and happy to see the mod getting an incredible update like this after so long! You guys all are so amazing for doing this I’m proud to be a fan of the mod!

[@f10pped36]

Especially with Rouge squadron or one of the other psp games essentially being the campaign they have a script they can copy

[@xm214-aminigun9]

Thanks for being such good devs. I personally would have let it go in a year but you guys are the true pillars of star wars community. I don't know what we would do without you guys.

[@KoalaTContent]

The fact that I couldn't quite tell if this was BFII or new footage of the BFIII dev build at first genuinely caught me off guard

[@schwardo]

god those animations are so accurate to the old footage, this is amazing work! The roll animation is the icing on the cake.

[@G31M1]

This gives me such strong feelings of nostalgia, security and curiosity. Back in the days there was barely anything to worry about. Good times! It's such a shame that this title never got released. I had the promotional poster for the Battlefront III with the Droids attacking Coruscant hanging in my room for years.

[@LordVader1094]

It would've been released, if not for a guy from EA taking over at LucasArts and screwing over Free Radical.

[@Skyline_r3496]

Technically it did for the PSP as Elite Sqaudron

[@G31M1]

@@Skyline_r3496At that point the game was just a shell of its former self

[@PorgChamp]

Wow it is amazing the difference that makes. Before this was "just" the best Battlefront 2 mod ever, but now it is truly Battlefront 3

[@lardusbirmingham7020]

This looks absolutely incredible, the progress since i played just a year and a half ago seems insane

[@tj8097]

I cannot even begin to express the appreciation I feel for you guys right now. This is BF3 brought to life in all its glory, not just a mod. MOST IMPRESSIVE

[@Chunklechuck]

I'd love for this to actually gain some audience once it's ready. Too bad you probably cant market this in any sort of official capacity

[@reddragon3263]

I've seen some big KZbinrs cover this mod quite a bit. I won't be surprised if that happens again.

[@El_Fabricio]

Once we get back to regular updates on KZbin, Moddb and Discord (Later on more pages even including Russian and Spanish modding sites), there will likely be more people covering this mod with a bigger audience. Also the demand for Battlefront 3 has never been greater than now. This time we are more than willing to deliver during this period.

[@DiagonalByte]

No one can ever claim Star Wars doesn't have the most dedicated fans, looking at projects like this. Absolutely incredible.

[@steelpaw9944]

Man pre Disney Star wars feels so good. Thanks for keeping it alive

[@AlexandruSorez]

Your dedication to this project is nothing short of amazing man

[@fearlesswee5036]

I actually love how this looks visually. It really nails that "Mid-generation Xbox 360/PS3" game look to a T and it really feels as if BF3 but it never got scrapped, like you just pulled this from an alternate timeline or something. Of course, that'd massively undermine the sheer amount of blood, sweat, tears, and love that was actually poured into this project. Godspeed gentlemen, and may the force be with you.

[@sephirothchild]

I've noticed there's some interesting mods for Battlefront 2 in recent years. Sounds like it was a long journey to get to this point so, congratulations.

[@MarcoD.Salvador]

Community can´t give you enough love for this, everything is amazing ❤

[@_draxin_0514]

Welcome back Fab. Hope to see this project get finished once and for all.

[@JJohnston4Life]

This is how the next BF3 should be. I love the Coruscant and the idea of keeping the vocals from the original is awesome!

[@ZeoWorks]

Looks amazing! Does anyone else prefer the good old BF2 third person camera?

[@Prodin100]

Very, very impressive - even if this is still running in the old Battlefront engine, I think it's made as big of a leap forward as BF2 did to BF1. So in that sense it definitely looks like a whole new game. Very happy for you guys - know work on this has been progressing over a number of years, and I've been following you guys for a while. This is no small accomplishment

[@vuur150]

this looks GOOD wtf? I thought you guys were just sort of getting it into a playable state more like a museum exhibit where people can look into the lost project. Had no idea you were actually molding it into a playable and good looking game, this is amazing!

People making their own stuff is the future, this is exactly what we all wanted.

[@kymosahbe]

This is a masterpiece that never happened :/ great job on the mod.

[@Hellosunshine945]

11 year old me has wanted this for so long🥹

[@reddragon3263]

Well done man! You get me so excited everytime you upload an update. This mod is the greatest thing to ever happen not just to this game, but to us Battlefront fans, you really are our only hope and are doing a great service to us and we appreciate you so much for your work and dedication, I love the HUD Update, especially the new score bar at the top which looks so much better, I know you still have things to finish up, but I'll say that in terms of the HUD, If it's possible to implement I would like to see the points be displayed in the center of the screen right next to the reticle, instead of the far left side of the screen so they're more noticeable to the player, like in modern multiplayer games like Call of Duty, as well as Miniature health bars on top of all of the NPC's, If you can do that, The HUD will be 100 percent authentic to the actual game.

[@El_Fabricio]

Sadly the target health bar is only available for fixed position. If it was ever possible to change that, we would do it. Gaining points in this mode (spaceships in space will come next time) is fairly easy. Having a minimum of +100 points and kills is usual. Having these numbers be next to the reticule would take more space (And also reduces the cleaniness of just having this white circle at the center of the screen). Also the background textures fit better to the left than in the center. I appreciate your kind feedback and if there's anything for us to improve just let us know.

[@reddragon3263]

@@El_Fabricio I just noticed you added icons on top of all the enemies, kind of like in the R1 Clone Wars mod. I think that's the closest thing to the mini health bars on top of all the NPCs.

[@stevewmartist6182]

Honestly, the main issue I had with this mod was the lack of new animations, as it felt just like a fancy reskin of Battlefront 2. However this is a huge step in the right direction. I can’t wait to see what else you guys accomplish, I hope some of the updated core gameplay fundamentals that were gonna be implemented in BF3 make it in such as strafing, the Hero Showboating, the Formation Flying, and more.

[@GamingSpider115]

Crazy to see how different the graphics are for its time being made

[@franklinnash]

I noticed this weird effect from footage of the new classic collection and it also seems to be here too. When Mace Windu (or any other force user too, I guess) does a force jump he leaves a crater when he lands. The force jump isn't a superhero jump, Jedi aren't 'impervious to damage' superheroes. The force jump includes a force float that allows the jedi to land without injury.

[@El_Fabricio]

The crater Mace leaves is intentional.

[@SexyFace]

The crater you're referring to here looks like an intentional ability. It doesn't occur when he jumps, but when he lands. He does a sort of "ground pound" smashing the terrain and damaging any droid unlucky enough to be nearby. I believe he also did that in the 2003 clone wars cartoon

[@kingchirpa]

Wow. I haven't checked out this mod in years. The new animations and sounds are amazing. I might have to check this out again

[@gabethebabe3337]

If only the other cancelled LucasArts games were able to get this treatment. We'll never get JK 3, KOTOR 3, 1313, or Imperial Commando, but we won't rest until the true Battlefront 3 is finished. All the lost years we didn't get with this game will finally happen thanks to fans like you.
