Star Wars Battlefront Q&As
Both GameSpy and 1UP have Star Wars Battlefront Q&As, asking Greg Borrud from Pandemic Studios (GameSpy) and producer Jim Tso from LucasArts (1UP) about this new class based action game. Questions are about the different classes, the battles we can expect, use of Jedi, cameo appereances by famous Star Wars characters, the vehicles, and plenty of other things.
We're hoping to support at least 16 players over the Internet on the PS2 and Xbox, possibly more with a dedicated server. On a LAN, we should be able to get around 32 players. For the PC, we think we can get double those numbers (32 over the Internet and 64 on a LAN). You can also add bots. [...] The AT-AT will definitely be in the game, as will be the AT-ST, speeder bikes, Rebel snowspeeders, X-wings, TIE Fighters, Republic Gunship, and other assorted vehicles from the movies. Vehicles spawn at command posts and most of the vehicles will have more than one position. For example, the Rebel snowspeeder will have a rear runner that can shoot a tow cable. Talk about reenacting moments from the movie!
