Boba Fett Few are more feared than the mysterious, intimidating Boba Fett, one of the galaxy's most accomplished warriors. Be Dangerous Playing as Boba Fett Boba Fett hunts his enemies by ambushing them with blinding concussion rockets and barrages of damaging wrist rockets.
Boba Fett Abilities. For the Hunt: Boba Fett disappears from enemy radar, gains unlimited jet pack fuel, and acquires insight into the location of nearby foes. Concussion Rocket: Boba Fett fires a single concussion rocket that dazes enemies. Rocket Barrage: Small rockets launch from Boba Fett's wrist.
Jango Fett, a warrior turned after the crushing defeat of his clan. He was eventually hired by and became the genetic basis for an army of clones grown at Kamino, one of whom was left unaltered and later became. He took some involvement in the, but was killed by the in the first major battle.Star Wars: Battlefront series'This is Jango, what do you want?' In and, Jango Fett appears as a playable hero for CIS on, (Renegade Squadron only) and Mos Eisley ( mode only).He is armed with his unique Westar-33 blaster pistol, flamethrower, 6 wrist rockets and 3 time bombs, as well as capable of lfight through the use of his jetpack.The Westar blaster is identical to the AWARD Pistol in terms of damage, killing all enemies in just two or three shots, but has 128 ammo istead of 96.
The flamethrower has 60 ammunition and sets everyone in a 3m radius alight. The fire does very weak damage, though, requiring about 5-6 seconds to kill even regular, who are not impaired in any way and will continue to shoot at you unabated.
Finally, the Time Bombs are a great way to take out vehicles and turrets while wrist rockets work quite well against snipers and enemy heroes, but are too slow and weak to be effective on anything else.Audio Clips.

Battlefront 2 Confirmed Heroes
What’s up Star Wars fans! With the road map for Star Wars Battlefront 2 on the way any day, it is time for my last 2019 Battlefront concept post. I know there are endless characters we would all love to see. However, since all these characters can be so unique, I feel that we will only get 4 to 8 new heroes/villains in 2019 at the absolute best (Excluding Anakin and Dooku). Check out this list of characters that would make for great additions to Battlefront 2 and let me know which ones you want to see most in the comments or on Twitter!Also if your interested check out my other posts of some and some next year. Original Trilogy Ezra BridgerSeen in: Star Wars RebelsAlright so how cool would it be to see what Ezra would look like in game? He would also make for a fast and agile force wielder.
His lightsaber could be very unique if he could use it as a blaster as well. Grand InquisitorSeen in: Star Wars RebelsA great counter to Ezra would be the Grand Inquisitor.
That dual sided rotating lightsaber could have some deadly attacking capabilities. Greedo “Going somewhere Solo?” – GreedoSeen in: A New Hope & The Clone WarsPersonally, I really enjoyed Greedo in the first Battlefront. I’d love to see him make a comeback into the game!
Nien Nunb Photo Credit: Carl PalaciosSeen In: Return of The Jedi & Battlefront (2015)If we are gonna bring back Greedo then why not bring back Nien Nunb? I really liked his abilities in the last game.
I think his turret would be a solid stationary hero item to mix up the hero combat. Jyn Erso “This is a rebellion isn’t it? I rebel.”Seen In: Rogue One: A Star Wars StoryThis is partly because I thought Jyn was solid addition to the first game but also because I really want Scarif back! Director Krennic “Deploy the garrison!Seen In: Rogue One: A Star Wars StoryOf course we can’t just have Jyn! Krennic is one of my favorite Rogue One characters.
I just need an in game emote to let people know they “stand amidst MY achievement NOT yours!” when they rob me of an elimination. IG-88 Photo Credit: Wookieepedia.comSeen In: The Empire Strikes BackIG-88 would be a great addition for those who want to see other bounty hunters besides the ones in the first Battlefront. His gun would need to be pretty powerful though.
Sabine Wren Photo Credit: StarWars.comSeen In: Star Wars RebelsI think Sabine would really shake things up for the heroes. She could be a perfect counter to Boba and a few other characters listed later.
Last thing, GIVE SABINE THE DARKSABER! That is all.To the next.
Prequel TrilogyAlright I could name a whole bunch of people from this era that I would love to see so I narrowed it down some. Ahsoka TanoSeen In: The Clone WarsI feel like Ahsoka would be one of the best moves DICE could make following Dooku and Anakin. Ahsoka could be a very speedy attacker with some kind of special dash attack. Original weapon renewal 3. I would really like to see her with two lightsabers though!Possible Appearances: Padawan – The Clone Wars, Rebels with white lightsabers. Asajj Ventress Photo Credit: StarWars.comSeen In: The Clone WarsThe perfect counter to Anakin’s padawan? Why not Dooku’s apprentice? It would great to have a couple dual wielding lightsaber characters, especially with lightsaber combat being fixes coming in the future.Possible Appearances: The Clone Wars– Apprentice, Nightsister Armour, Masked Ventress.Padme Amidala PhotoCredit: StarWars.com (This picture of Padme is Awesome!)Seen In: The prequels and The Clone WarsAs far as a ranged hero from the prequels, who better than Padme!
Battlefront 2 Obi Wan Kenobi
The only thing that would worry me is if her abilities are too similar to Leia’s.Possible Appearances: (TONS shes a queen/senator!) The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, The Clone Wars, Revenge of The Sith. Jango FettSeen In: Attack of The ClonesI really want to see Jango Fett in Battlefront 2! However, this could also create a lot of unbalance if we have two jet pack characters on one side. I think there are ways to make him different than Boba though.
He could have a longer ranged flamethrower ability than Boba’s melee. Jango could also be a dual wielding pistol character too. Cad Bane Photo Credit: StarWars.com “I wouldn’t be so hasty if I were you.”Seen In: The Clone WarsCad Bane is the character that I would like to see most from the prequel era.
Bane always seems to have a gadget for every situation he faces. I picture Cad with dual pistols and maybe a shock trap. It would be pretty awesome if they could get him to have some sort of limited hovering ability with his boots. Mace Windu “You are under arrest my lord.” – Mace WinduSeen In: The prequels and The Clone WarsHere is my other vote for the prequels to match Cad Bane. Mace Windu is one of the most powerful Jedi in the Order so it would be great to see him join the war. After seeing recent polls on Twitter, I am surprised to see how much of the community actually wants Mace over characters like Ahsoka.
I would definitely be okay with having Master Windu on the battlefield. Qui-Gon Jinn Photo credit: StarWars.comSeen In: The Phantom MenaceThis would be an awesome move. Qui-Gon would also be a great addition to our Jedi collection. Give us a couple of Liam Neeson quotes from Taken and were good to go!
Jar Jar.Not so fast. Sequel TrilogyI struggled when it came to coming up with a lot of prequel characters that I think would make for solid additions to Battlefront 2.
Most of my favorite characters from this era are already in the game. Let me know which ones I you want to see! Poe DameronPhoto Credit: StarWars.comSeen In: The Sequels and Star Wars ResistancePoe has been involved in enough in ground combat during the films to deserve a spot on the hero roster! Commander PyreSeen In: Star Wars ResistanceTo be honest, I really just like idea of a golden stormtrooper.
Not sure how they would make Pyre different than Phasma but it could be interesting. The Mandalorian? Photo Credit: StarWars.comI really like the idea of this one! We don’t know who the Mandalorian is so I guess it is just a possibility for now. Ben & Dennis – The DICE Climbers Your favorite ass kicking duo.Seen In: Your every day Star Wars Battlefront 2 feeds on Twitter and Reddit and in DICE Studios of course.The perfect combo for shutting down the haters and sending the trolls packing.
A solid addition to the game for certain! Seriously though, its very obvious these guys and the others at DICE kick ass with communication on social media!So which characters do you want to see in Battlefront 2 for this coming year? Is there any that didn’t make the list? I really hope to see as many of these heroes and villains as possible. Let me know on Twitter who you want to see next year!I know one thing for sure. DICE will do an amazing job on whatever content they decide to create for Battlefront 2 in 2019!
Until nextime.
2015's Star Wars Battlefront had the spectacle of the movies, but not a lot of meat beneath that, particularly at launch. Battlefront 2 is a clear answer to that criticism. It's an effort by three EA studios of different disciplines—DICE (multiplayer), Criterion (vehicle design), and Motive (narrative)—to build the ultimate version of what Battlefront has always promised: a soldier's perspective of cinematic Star Wars battles.The effort to achieve that will bring us a revamped multiplayer, with more options and progression systems available to the player than before, and a dedicated single-player mode that gives us an in-depth look at the saga from the perspective of the Empire's special forces. It's a convincing plan to build a fuller game than the original, and the story aims to sit alongside The Force Awakens and Rogue One in showing us some new and interesting perspectives of a galaxy far, far away.Are we the baddies?Battlefront 2's campaign begins with the destruction of the second Death Star at the end of Return of the Jedi, as you may have figured out from last week's leaked trailer. That moment in the film is framed as the ultimate Rebel victory. Motive wants to subvert that. “How can we turn that victory into a loss, into a moment of defeat?” says the studio's game director, Mark Thompson.
You primarily play as Iden Versio, an elite soldier who swears loyalty to the Emperor, with her father having served as a high-ranking general within the Imperial forces. Motive wants to explore the kind of character who inspires belief in the Empire, whose achievements encourage kids on Empire-occupied worlds to sign up to the Imperial academy.Iden comes from the planet Vardos, a newly created world in the Star Wars universe, which looks a little like a mix between Mass Effect's Citadel and some of the upper class areas of the city in Mirror's Edge Catalyst. A piece of concept art shows off gorgeous red trees, futuristic buildings covered in the Imperial insignia, and even a sci-fi monorail. The developers describe Vardos as an Imperial utopia, where the Rebels are considered terrorists and belief in the Empire's ideologies is absolute. They'll explore why your character sees the Empire as she does.Iden's unit, codenamed Inferno Squadron, conveniently straddles several Battlefront-friendly combat specialties.
You're both a pilot and a commando, infiltrating and sabotaging. Iden's supposed to be relatable, and she's portrayed as a hero of the Empire rather than an enemy of the Rebellion. That said, the story will show you both sides of the aftermath of Return of the Jedi, including one story mission where you get to play as Luke Skywalker, with an appearance by Kylo Ren also being teased.The developers reference a couple of new ideas that'll cross over between the campaign and multiplayer.
Players have robot sidekicks, for example, which confused me for a second until I realised that they probably mean 'drones in space.' The Imperial versions seen in the trailer resemble little Imperial probe droids, and their tactical use is yet to be properly explained, though one seems to use a small electric shock ability. While Battlefront 2 introduces fixed classes, gadgets and abilities can be customised, though we're not exactly sure what these will specifically entail yet.
You can also unlock new gadgets and abilities for vehicles, too.When it comes to the online side of things, DICE is using the word 'career' a lot. There's multiplayer support for up to 40 players this time, with brand new modes and maps set across different eras of the Star Wars saga.
At the very least we'll see the aforementioned Vardos, Yavin IV, Kamino, Endor, Starkiller Base, Mos Eisley, and Hoth used as backdrops, with unit types to match, like the Trade Federation's battle droids (everyone's favourites).Then there are space battles, with a revamped spaceship combat system designed by the Burnout team at Criterion. There'll be more craft to choose from this time, too. In one piece of concept art, we see Jango Fett's Slave I chasing what is, I'm guessing, Obi-Wan Kenobi's Jedi Starfighter on Kamino from Attack of the Clones.Changing ranksProgression in Battlefront 2's online sounds like it's had a significant overhaul. Basic soldiers, hero characters, and even vehicles can be upgraded and customised now. Again, we're left to speculate on how that'll work, but they've clearly thought hard about how to get players to commit to the multiplayer over a longer period of time.
Vehicles have mods, abilities and gadgets, and the devs want them to have the same personality that the hero characters do.I've spotted Luke, Kylo Ren, Rey, Jango Fett (or at least his vehicle), Darth Maul, and Yoda so far. Heroes were a little flimsy to control in Battlefront 1, particularly when they fought each other, so DICE says they're making them have more physicality this time.
You can personalise heroes to your play style, although again, we were not shown how. The way you obtain heroes will be a resource-based system this time, rather than being the first to pick up tokens in the battlefield.
While the heroes are meant to be game-changing powerful units, DICE also mentions that a basic soldier who's been significantly levelled up may be able to stand against Darth Maul in combat. The word 'career' is used by DICE again, suggesting your faceless troopers can progress to the point where they're canon-shattering badasses.This was EA's opportunity to lay out the grand plan for Battlefront 2, to make it absolutely clear that the game will be packed with stuff to do from day one. Specifics on multiplayer are particularly thin, likely being saved for a splashy showing at E3, but it certainly sounds like Battlefront 2 won't be short on fan service especially when compared to the original.
The big challenge for DICE is how they keep people playing Battlefront 2 online after the appeal of the spectacle and Star Wars iconography wears off, something which we have a vague grasp of after this showing. Gadgets, deeper customisation, and multi-layered progression systems may be the answer—now we just need to see them in action.Star Wars Battlefront 2 hits PC on November 17.
