There's no reason to mock people just because they want to play an alien for once.

Any news?

BF2's heavy battle droid is simply a rocket battledroid without the unique "cap" and the jetpack, so it should be pretty easy if you plan to do that one.

Nope, it does not. I'm pretty sure that the sniper class has DLT-20s instead.

Voted for the DLT-19 since I'm pretty sure that a DLT-20a was recently done for the Cloud City SP mission. I think that both weapons would be great additions for KOTF (the upcoming remade one).

I think I'll wait some months before I buy the game to have a more clear view of the amount of content at launch and of what influence will microtransations have (called "crystals" in game, according to the game files). About the heroes, it's insane that Yoda and Darth Maul will be the only prequel ones at launch, especially since it had been recently confirmed that Bossk will already be available, and he's a minor character. Some units need some balancing too, like the flametrooper. If anyone's interested, 41st legion decals have been found in the game files: https://i.imgur.com/V1iM6AK.png I'm pretty sure a "rebellion AT-RT" with orange markings has been found too, but I didn't save the picture.

More leaks, but watch out for campaign spoilers. http://starwars.wikia.com/d/p/3059094931680265806 "Venator bridge" sounds like a fun map, and I'm glad to see that the TX130 is finally canon. It would also appear that each faction will have at least 3 different starfighter models, each one with a different role (for example, the CIS has the Vulture droid, Hyena bomber and Tri-Fighter, the rebel alliance has the X-Wing, Y-Wing and A-Wing, and so on).

Some customization would be good, but I personally can't think about anything but skins for the separatist, imperial and first order classes if they wanna keep it "lore-friendly". Hopefully we might see something more for the other factions. I totally agree with you about the EU. What some people tend to forget is that Pablo Hidalgo confirmed some time ago that in Lucas' plans for the sequel trilogy he was not going to consider the old EU at all, it would have been a "fresh start" like Disney's. Also, if a story is classified as Legends it doesn't mean that it's dead and non canonical, as proven by the fact that a pretty good part of KOTOR (the mandalorian wars, the sith wars, the Rakata empire..) is already canon by simply being referenced in the new content.
