Just think, it's been a number of HvV matches, and still hasn't been defeated.

I think the issue at hand is that instead of sharing those “extra factors” you guys just give us sass like “Poe’s home is in the cockpit”.

If instead you were to say “we were going to make Poe but had to go with robots that go beep-boop because we wouldn’t be able to get the voice lines translated in to all the required languages in time” it would go a long way (yes I’m recycling the scenario Dennis shared regarding the first BF2015 DLC, but you get the point).

Now obviously if the reason is “we were gonna make Poe but JJ decided to ret-con him into a first order spy in the opening scene of TROS so he would have actually been a Villian and announcing him as a villian in the CT 15 days before the movie release didn’t fly with Kathleen” you can’t tell us that, and that’s fine.

By all means, pick your poison, but when you pick sass as a response to backlash don’t be surprised when the result is more toxicity.

The "home in the c*ckpit" comment was made many months before we were even looking at heroes for January.

Some things can't be shared, nor should they. Ultimately, we are in the situation where we have chosen to go with BB-8 and BB-9E. They are coming to the game in January. We stand by this decision, we think they'll be great additions.

There's never room for toxicity, ever.

Maybe we were going to but there were extra factors at play. A lot of the time when something isn't added the natural reaction seems to be "you idiots, why didn't you think of this?"

Perhaps we did think of it but for whatever reason, it just couldn't be. Thus is the nature of game development, sometimes you need to pick your poison.

Nope. It's digital only.

Completely serious question u/F8RGE, are there any thoughts to customise what era you’re searching for especially with the ST content coming to CS? My friend loves the OT maps and wants to exclusively play on those. I love playing as clones and droids and want to exclusively play as those. Are there any thoughts to choose which era you play in on the horizon?

Yes

Dude. At least Dengar has killed people. Bb8-Evil movie role is a glorified snitch and BB8 has 1 scene in an ATST that is TERRIBLE. How can you even decide a weapon or health amount for them?

BB-8 has quite a good service record to be fair. We're looking at support for BB-9E to help bring some of that to the Dark Side.

If you can't tell the idea of being killed by a BB unit while I'm literally any other hero/villian bothers me.

Heroes get killed by Stormtroopers who have a 99% chance of missing usually.

Yes, you won't lose anything, it will just unlock anything you don't currently have.

We always consider lots of options

We're still discussing Crait.

It was an old image, not final.
