It does? Does it still have the ground based fps stuff too? And more importantly, does it have maps which combine combat in space with combat down on the ground? Because that could potentially rock hard.

If it's anything like the first game it will be s*** and the controls will be clumsy.

No its a PC, xbox and ps2 game.

It's just gone gold, comes out same day as revenge of the sith on dvd (nov 1st)

I dont think maps will include space and ground in the same map.


so ummm will I need a joystick to fly around?

nah, if its based off bf2, then you should be fine with mouse/keyboard.

That's done by those Pandemic guys right? I heard that they've got extraordinarily large genitalia!

in the maps in space you can dock with capital ships and then fight on foot inside them. it looks pretty sweet

Fingers crossed that it's not as clumbsy as the first one.

Be nice to have a decent space flight battle game

okay so you guys reckon no joystick required?

I was hoping it would handle like the old x-wing/tie fighter games

Yes it is done by those pandemic guys.


lucasarts are just the publishers/legals.


so I can't believe no one knows whether or not I'll actually need a joystick?



I finished FEAR. I don't think gameplay is as good as HL2. looks prettier though, almost too pretty, like too plasticy wheras HL2 looks dirtier. (which is better)

dude, how in the hell are we meant to know if a game that hasn't even been released yet needs a joystick? go read a review from a beta tester or email the company that makes it if you want a real answer.

I reckon it would be cool if you had two giant battle cruisers facing off against each other in space, so you could man turrets, pilot fighters and man the battle cruiser, and if you could use fighters to board the enemy cruiser to do some internal sabotage and stuff.
