I imagine it as a way to live through some of Star Wars best large scale battles like imagine playing though the battle of umbara or the siege of mandalore

14 was chosen to match with BF2 2017's count.

Most I picked are what you expect outside of three.

• Coruscant Underworld: I think this would be such a sick urban map that provides a unique perspective to the planet with neon lights contrasting a much more depressing atmosphere and a relatively claustrophobic layout similar to Siege of Cairo in Battlefield 6.
• Siege of Mandalore: This just feels like the right kind of large scale Star Wars Battle that these games were made for and I'm biased with my love for TCW.
• Exegol Starship: I think Exegol Starship it's such an out-there kind of map where we're all infantry fighting on the outside of a starship while the backdrop is this massive battle that really makes us feel like one soldier in the greater Star Wars battle.

How about y'all?

Surrounded by opps

I've been seeing a lot of discussions about what heroes people want to see added to the potential BF3, but honestly, I've always had the most fun playing as the special units. I've wanted Bothan spies as a Rebel Infiltrator pretty much ever since the class was introduced and was pretty disappointed when the Ewoks ended up taking that spot instead.

What special units would you guys like to see added?

Recently when trying to play offline on my Steam Deck, I keep getting stuck on this even though I’ve been able to play offline with no issues up until the last few days. Anyone know a way to fix this and get back offline play?

Recentemente vi que o jogo Star Wars Battlefront II tinha voltado no hype de multiplayer, fiquei animado porque sempre joguei muito o I e II, mas com o tempo parei porque achava o multiplayer muito vazio (jogando na nuvem até que ficava ok), baixei pra jogar e demorou 10 minutos pra começar uma partida e só tinha 2 pessoas, o que será que fiz de errado? Existe algum jeito de ter multiplayer cheio? Ou era mentira o hype?

Got the BF3 mod which uses Battlefront 2 classic game. However, I have this issue where the game's UI is a bit awkward. UI elements that should be up the top, are in the middle. Uploaded picture.

any thoughts?

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

If you had to pick 5 heroes and villains for each era (PT, OT, ST) to be in the game on launch who would you choose?

For me it'd be:

PT:

Anakin, Obi-Wan, Padmé, Yoda, Ahsoka

Dooku, Maul, Cad Bane, Grievous, Ventress

OT:

Luke, Leia, Han, Chewbacca, Lando

Vader, Palpatine, Boba Fett, Greedo, Bossk

ST/Post OT:

Rey, Finn, Poe, Zorii Bliss, The Mandalorian and Grogu

Kylo, Phasma, Hux, Commander Pyre, Moff Gideon

First post launch season possibly based off Ahsoka Season 2 or the Starfighter film (I don't know the release window of these projects so maybe not) with either:

Ezra Bridger and Grand Admiral Thrawn

Or

Kade Auberon and the antagonist of the film

I know there’s been a lot of talk about hero balancing in BF3 and whether or not there should be multiple heroes in a match.

An idea I had that would also be a fun throwback to the original games is for each team to only have one hero on the field at a time. You can have plenty of reinforcements but only one hero until the current one dies. This would be a fun callback to the original games where you could only have one on the field for each team, with the first game having them be AI only.

Not exactly sure how best to choose who gets it but probably something like reaching a certain number of points or kills

The 3rd best class in my opinion is the assault. It’s a solid class but to me it’s just not as good as the other two I have above it. Besides that I hope your having a good day. And may the force be with you.

I've done my heroes and planets, now i'm gonna list all the reinforcement classes I hope to see in Battlefront 3! It will be semi-realistic, with a couple out there options. Let me know what you wanna see!

PREQUEL TRILOGY ERA

ARC-Trooper - Droideka
Clone Commando - Commando Droid
Jedi Temple Guard - Magnaguard
Senate Guard - B2 Super Battledroid
Jump Trooper - B2 Rocket Droid

ORIGINAL TRILOGY ERA

Rebel Honor Guard - Imperial Royal Guard
Bothin Spy - Death Trooper
Jedi Knight - Inquisitor
Mon Cala Commander - Purge Trooper
Rebel Commando (Rebel Friend) - ISB Agent

SEQUEL TRILOGY ERA

Ovissian Gunner - Sith Trooper
Caphex Spy - First Order Flametrooper
Quarren Commander - Pratorean Guard
Sullistan Commando - Knight of Ren
Twi-Lek Spy - Dark Trooper

MAP SPECIFIC REINFORCEMENTS

These reinforcements would be specific to one map, which in large scale game-modes would be for either the light or the dark side (i'll clarify), as well as being the main troop unit for my map specific hunt mode (which i'll detail in another post). If I don't specify a side, it is because they are only in their designated hunt mode.

Gungan Warrior - Naboo - Light Side - Gungan Hunt
Jawa - Tatooine - Light Side
Tusken Raider - Tatooine - Dark Side
Rancor - Tatooine - Rancor Hunt
Geonosian - Geonosis - Dark Side - Geonosian Hunt
Wookie - Kashyyyk - Light Side - Wookie Hunt
Wampa - Hoth - Wampa Hunt
Ewok - Endor - Light Side - Ewok Hunt
Acklay - Felucia - Acklay Hunt

Here are some other random reinforcement ideas:

Mandalorian - Death Watch Mandalorian
Clone Paratrooper - Nightsister
Umbaran

EA reportedly rejected a Battlefront 3 pitch in 2021, partly due to licensing costs. Now we're hearing rumors about DICE and Respawn potentially bringing the franchise back.

So what changed? And what's the catch?

With all the layoffs, studio closures and cancelled projects across the industry, I can't imagine EA considering another Battlefront without a solid business case.

A few possibilities come to mind:

- Monetization: Paid expansions (BF 2015), free updates + cosmetics (BFII 2017), Battle Passes, or something entirely new?

- Development costs: Smaller teams, AI-assisted development, cheaper content production?

- Live-service strategy: One game supported for 5–10 years, or multiple sequels like 04/05 and 15/17.

- Licensing: A more favorable deal between EA and Lucasfilm?

As someone who's played Battlefront since 2004, this is easily my all-time favorite franchise. I'm incredibly hyped about these rumors and genuinely hope they're true.

But we've seen Battlefront III cancelled, BFII's controversial launch and live-service support ending earlier than many of us hoped.

What if the very thing that makes Battlefront 3 possible is also what we should be most worried about?

I'm not questioning whether the developers can make an incredible game. I'm wondering what business decisions are being made behind the scenes.

What do you think has changed since 2021, and what kind of long-term strategy is EA betting on?

With the news of BF3 (still not 100% convinced it will happen) I made a roster concept anyways consisting of 34 characters. Each hero having a counterpart villain for a “rival”. What other characters should be in BF3 if it ever happens?
