Where the hell is Star Wars Battlefront 3?

I cant believe there hasnt been a SWBF3 yet. Instead we getting a crap kinect game.

Let Dice make Star Wars Battlefield. God that game would be awesome.

You're in luck!

Star Wars: Battlefront 3 brought to you by the makers of such masterpieces and timeless classics like Turning Point and Legendary!!!

Don't worry. The Ip is is safe hands.

Lucas Arts does not like money and Pandemic went under.

And I would not want EA/Dice to touch BF3 with a 10 foot pole, EA/Bioware ruined SWTOR, and I will not support EA/Dice ****ing up SWBF3. It would be a CoD clone with Day one DLC. I will not have it!

I agree having Battlefront 3 in the hands of a developer like DICE would be amazing. Unfortunately it looks like if the game is being developed, it's by Spark Unlimited.

I can't comprehend why LucasArts isn't taking the making of Battlefront 3 a priority. Screw the Force Unleashed, Battlefront 3 is where the money is at.

Yeah they close down pandemic because their Star Wars games clearly weren't of the same quality as anything Spark can make.

Spark Unlimited you say?

I'll just stick to my copy of Battlefront 2, thx :)

Most of Pandemic is now under 343 studios. They're making Halo 4. From Star Wars to a generice FPS game. What a shame.

Lets hope the rumors are true & SWBF3 is back under development. I may not be a fan of Spark Unlimited but i will surely give them a chance.

If anyone could pull off a Battlefront game, its probably DICE. Epic 64 man battles across Naboo, or fighting in space to destroy the Death Star.

I don't think destruction is a big necessity with Star Wars games, so they could probably pull off higher numbers on consoles, or at least wait until the next generation. Either way I'd get it on PC so as to not miss out even a few players I could be playing with in a full match.

I'll let the reviewers give it a chance for me, and you as well if you would be so kind.

Really? God I haven't played Battlefront 2 in ages, and then it was on PS2.

If the community is even a little bit active, I'll go to Steam and buy the sh!tout of that game.

Thats what I'm wondering. It's been so long! We need SWBF3! If it's develped by someone like Treyarch or DICE then that would be pretty sick. As long as they it a TPS and not FPS. The Battlefront series is more enjoyable in third person.

I would buy Battlefront 3 if developed by DICE...just like that.Hexagon_777

And this is why BF3 needs mod-support.

It died.

And why suggestions for Dice to do it? Sure they have simialrities but Dice ain't no 3rd person shooter specialists here. We need Epic games or something

In an imaginary land where it frolics through flowers and picks roses with Half-Life 3 and all the other games like it.

And its a reason I hate EA, though I guess to be fair the engine is pretty nice and neat and new and they don't want just anyone messing around with it yet.

They haven't ruled it out yet, but sadly as long as EA wants money, it won't happen.

Doesn't make sense? That huge modding community keeps a ton of people hooked on Bethesda's brand of cocaine, it's not like Bethesda couldn't have worked harder to get rid of some of the dumb bugs, or spent time polishing up the game a little. Like the whole normal maps for faces in the stock version of the game, were fixed within hours of release by modders.

Bugs?!? It's a Bethesda game, it adds flavor.

So, people of this thread, how can we get EA to let us give them our money in return for Battlefield: Star Wars?Hexagon_777

[QUOTE="Hexagon_777"]So, people of this thread, how can we get EA to let us give them our money in return for Battlefield: Star Wars?lordreaven

It could be a good thing it hasnt came out yet, we all know how LotR Conquest was....

but we also know how good BF1/BF2 were. that was a proven formula and I doubt they would have messed anything up.

[QUOTE="lordreaven"] If that happens I will burn Down DICE's and EA's headquaters in protest.lordreaven

Gamer fail, I know. :cry:

[QUOTE="lordreaven"]

[QUOTE="Hexagon_777"] Tripwire, Relic, Epic Games, Croteam, and maybe Gearbox.

Hexagon_777

Gamer fail, I know. :cry:

Relic did Space Marine, though the SP was awesome, the Multiplayer was basically CoD in a 40k setting and in a TPS form, but if they smarten up, I think they could pull it off.

Croteam made Serious Sam. Pretty much sums it up.

And Gearbox would be an interesting option, maybe do a Republic Commando style Co-op mode, while having the classic mode.

I just don't want Battlefield: Star Wars edition, EVEN MORE SO with EA behind it, as it will turn int COD: Battlefield Star Wars edition. and I will HATE who ever does that.

EDIT: and interesting side note, the guys at Parado had a meeting one day were all they talked about was Star Wars game ideas. And an interesting thing they said they brought up is almost all their ideas would go against the "safe" Star Wars games. Basically here is what one of the higher ups said (I'm pretty sure he was higher, and he was responding to one of my questions).

I would

1: Make a X-wing/Tie-fighter games for the PC/Mac. They would be complex and offer depth in gameplay.

2: I would Make a sequel to "Republic Commando"

3: I would make a RPG that focuses on fringe parts of the universe. I.e you play as an interesting character (not a jedi, princess, sith or other "epic" character). Like Mattias says - it's the spectrum between "smuggler" and "bounty hunter" that's interesting - not "Jedi" and "Sith". Think Firefly in the SW universe.

4: Action Adventure game - imagine Uncharted but set in the Star Wars Universe.

I'll limit myself to four. We did this in the office and everyone basically had suggestions better than what Lucasarts

What a great question!

Paradox Rep at their forums

Every inch of hope there is for Battlefront 3 and/or TimeSplitters 4 seems to turn to nothing in the end.

Nevertheless...

Battlefront 3 MUST be given back to Crytek UK (Free Radical), just look at what they did with the game, I can't believe this baby never saw the light of day:
