Hero Changes Needed for Battlefront 3

[u/OutcomeBest6499]

I wanted to share this dialogue if enough people were interested.

I feel like the hero system in battlefront 3 needs a big overhaul. I think heroes should be much harder to get in the next game. In 2 I think it’s far too easy and the ease of getting them makes every game feel like a race to get 4k, die, pick hero(or afk till available). I think the less common heroes are, the more you dedicate to enjoying the soldier and objective aspect of the game.

I also think one of the big complaints in 2 was that non force heroes in popular modes like heroes vs villains were incredibly hard to balance. They were quite weak while also being incredibly annoying. You could never make either player side (lightsaber or non lightsaber) happy. I think a good alternative would be to have specific tiers of heroes that dictate the overall power level(health, damage, dodges, ability strength). Heroes vs villains could be broken up into queues for tiers of heroes or maybe just splitting low tiers and high tiers. I think that could also add more variety to the regular trooper modes. Lower tier heroes are cheaper so you can buy them earlier but you don’t last as long, and higher tier ones showing up later in games and providing more of a final boss feeling
