We probably would’ve gotten the stormtrooper skins from BF1 if EA didn’t drop support for BF2 😢, who knows if we’ll get a BF3 at this rate, it’s like a curse

[@lordspyro5983]

I know right? BF2 was a literal gold mine of content waiting to happen and they stopped for the Crap that was battlefield 2042, Battlefield 2142 is better than Battlefield 2042

[@eliphas_vlka]

​@@lordspyro5983 because they dont want quality they want money

[@codythefriendlyskunkboy1780]

I wonder how true the theory is that EA forced Dice to stop working on BF2 when they didn't want to lmao

[@thicccheese4007]

Battlefront 2 was a PR nightmare and Battlefield 2042 is still a fucking mess. They’re probably scrambling trying to figure out how to get out the hole they’ve dug themselves into. They might be too focused on 2042 to work on anything else but they’re fixing the game extremely slowly so maybe they are working on something else… like battlefront 3.

[@crimson159]

@@thicccheese4007 Nope it was confirmed that Dice completely dropped anything Battlefront related, hence why almost all developers of Battlefront 2 left.

[@TeenWithACarrotIDK]

Yup

[@littlebadassgaming]

[@RedSun446]

I havent seen anyone bring it up yet so i will, Fun Fact: originally the royal guards and honor guards werent in the game and the body guards you could play as were Shock Troopers and Blue Rebel Soldiers, after the bespin DLC they were obviously replaced and the shock trooper was redistributed as a skin for the Empire and the Blue Rebels were made into the default Bespin Rebel outfit

[@MrLazeeProductionsOFFICIAL]

Yoooo redsun!

[@dersoldat1456]

battlefront 2015 was honestly such an amazing game and did the whole "star wars, war game" so well

[@dersoldat1456]

@Ostrava_Of_Boletaria I don't think it was a failure, many aspects of both games are great

[@dearsirdearyou4153]

Most of the game was behind dlc

[@CaptainBrungle]

I'll always say its better than battlefront 2, even after all these years me and my friend play it all the time. I liked how it was a modern take on battlefront wich is why I hated how they went back to the class system in bf2 just to please all the people that played the originals.

[@corditesniffer8020]

Man I actually really loved Sullust in BF1 I loved the black basalt rock formations and the lava flows as well as the industrial manufacturing sort of feel the whole place had with its obvious mineral wealth Plus the storm troopers had those cool breathing units and backpacks which were neat The blazing orange uniforms of the rebels for kinda neat too Just loved it

[@kaniox141]

You can also play deathtrooper in bf1 if someone plays krennic

[@themeddite2935]

I remember the Death troopers being so fucking good in that game

[@supremeteen1975]

Those guys were terrifying 😂

[@Why_Not_8744]

I've gone throught the files and most of if not all the trooper skins for bf1 are ported into bf2, sitting un-used.

[@Wedge_Khan]

Because a lot of it was planned for dlc down the line, that didn't happen because EA pulled the plug on the game.

[@Why_Not_8744]

@@Wedge_Khan You might be right, but I'm pretty sure most bf1 trooper character models have been there since launch.

[@MrSpartan993]

REALLY?!

[@glacier1253]

If there’s something that I miss from BF1 is the wear and tear your character would go through, like rolling in sand would make them sandy for the rest of the life and blaster marks would be seen on Stormtroopers armour the more you died/took shots

[@russianinvader3207]

BF2 also has this feature.

[@lukerope1906]

I wish we had gotten more skins for the Empire. All the different colored pauldrons, and Shock Troopers would have been awesome. The Shadow Stormtrooper could have been a skin for the Death Troopers. But oh well. I use mods that make all the classes look like the original classes

[@MarsiB013]

Shadow Trooper should have been an Infiltrator Reinforcement.

[@thedoctor4327]

Lot of content I was hoping for in BFII 2017 (more prequel era maps, a few sequel era maps, heroes from Clone Wars/Rebels/Mandalorian, etc) but I feel like skins was easy low hanging fruit to add that they didn’t take advantage of. For the Empire at least I’d like to have seen the Shadowtroopers, Imperial Navy Troopers, Mud Troopers (from Solo), Range Trooper (Solo), Tank Trooper (Rogue One), any number of Imperial Combat Driver variants (Hoth, Lothal, Endor), and trench coat wearing Imperial Officers

[@WatchVidsMakeLists]

I still can't believe we got Ajan Kloss over Exegol for The Rise of Skywalker update 😭

[@thedoctor4327]

@@WatchVidsMakeLists IKR? Bare minimum Exegol would have been a starfighter map. If they wanted to and had the time it could have also been the location of a Capital Supremacy variation /spiritual successor to Battlefront 2015's Scarif Infiltration mode. Have both sides start in starfighters and depending on points/meeting objectives the game switches to a ground battle on/in the Star Destroyer

Damn watching these videos makes me want to download Battlefront 2 again, is it worth it?

[@ericpiotrowski8122]

I never played too much BF1 because I was just straight ass at multiplayer lmao but the customization and gameplay make me wish I didn't give up on it

[@SorakuFett]

BF1 2015 also had Death Troopers only playable if someone played as Director Krennic.

[@JceY]

when wil developers learn that we want EVERYTHING, even if some units have the same skill set, we want literally everything we can get in battlefront games, there was no reason to cut out all the good stuff from BF1 especially the customization

everyone has rose tinted glasses about BF1 now (shocker) but the game when popular also had a severe lack of content. The only thing i'll give BF1 over BF2 slightly is the gunplay. Felt more impactful in BF1

[@walnzell9328]

0:49 "Death Star Trooper" is not accurate. They are Imperial Navy Troopers. They are present on space installations and anywhere with Imperial Navy jurisdiction. Though the name Death Star Trooper is used in the Lego Star Wars games, this was only due to them not knowing this. And just assumed they were specific to just the two Death Stars. Furthermore, the trooper at 0:52 is an Imperial combat engineer. They wear uniforms used by Imperial engineers and heavy artillery crews. They are not Navy troopers. In fact, they are not exclusive to the Imperial Navy, Army, or even the Stormtrooper Corps. 0:53 The heavy trooper here wears a specialized survival backpack used in hostile environments. Usually deserts. The "Tatooine pauldron color" is actually a rank insignia. The Stormtrooper Corps used colored pauldrons to denote rank. If you watch A New Hope, you'll see not every stormtrooper on Tatooine has a pauldron. I believe orange denotes the rank of lieutenant, black indicates sergeant, white, I'm not sure, and red is, I think, commander. A few stormtroopers on Tatooine in A New Hope have the black pauldron. It seems even DICE forgot the pauldrons mean something. As every heavy trooper in BF2 EA has a pauldron. 0:59 This game canonized the Imperial shadow troopers/shadow stormtroopers. But then Rogue One came out and I think everyone got the hint that shadow troopers were being replaced by these lazy flat faced edited shadow troopers made by some producer's middle school aged child. Which is why you will never see a shadow stormtrooper ever again. Not even in Andor, which is trying to show just how the bureaucracy of the Empire works. Well here's a little something Disney flushed down the sh*tter. There being several intelligence agencies at odds with one another. There isn't just one Imperial intelligence service. The ISB is the intelligence department of COMPNOR, the Imperial political party. They are the gestapo of the Star Wars world. Meanwhile the Imperial state has its own intelligence service. Known as Imperial Intelligence. The two were often at odds with one another. The head of Imperial Intelligence for a time created the shadow stormtroopers. They could easily have both the Death troopers and the shadow stormtroopers as the personal troopers of two competing intelligence services. But no. Also the Imperial Navy has its own intelligence known as Imperial Naval Intelligence. Yes, the Empire has its own version of the NCIS. Just thought I'd throw that in there. This was all old canon, but plenty of the necessary material from it was made canon again. The ISB also had their own specialized stormtroopers that were never fully explained. It is so easy to just put the Death troopers in this spot. COMPNOR is canon and all the subgroups that were a part of it. JUST DO IT.
