SW Battlefront 2 whats in it for X-Wing *SPOILERS*

By CerseisAdvocate, in X-Wing

A Question to the SWBF2 Players. What kind of Ships pilots and upgrades could FFG suck out of the material?

I saw some X-Wings falling out of a Raider in the trailer and I'd like to have more context. Will we get an imperial X-Wing?

I wish so much for an X-Wing fix that is 'empire only'!!! In your face Rebelscum thats what you get for Sabines Abomination!

Edited by Hannes Solo

I was about to insert an obligatory lootbox and p2w economy joke, then I saw this:

No.

Please don't. Pretty please.

Trying to avoid spoilers but:

Inferno Squadron TIE Fighters (They have improved cannons and blood stripes + Missiles)

Both the RZ1 and RZ2 A wings are present.

`T65 X wings have a astromech mod which allows other droids to occupy the spot.

Mag-Pulse Missiles
Dual Proton Torpedos

Random card packs in each expansion :lol:

You know, it's not actually that bad.

If there is a specific card you want (and eventually you NEED all of them) you can just purchase them with scrap earned whilst playing the game.

Now if you happen to be sitting on 4k credits, then sure, go ahead and use a loot crate, may get lucky but everything is unlockable without them.

Nope. We won't. If we are lucky, we don't get anything, if we are not, we get something worse.

This beauty!

Title: Inferno Squadron Tie fighter. Imperial Tie fighter only. Your action bar gets a missile slot. 0 pts.

I didn't play the game, but it looks like that Raider defects to the Rebel Alliance at some point (considering there is a screenshot of it is along side several Rebel capital ships).

So those X-Wings in the hangar are actually Rebel.

Basically all ships can fire dual ordinance. (and that's what Luke does in ANH)

**** it! Its not like I actually want an imperial X-Wing, I only want revenge for what Sabine did to our TIE.

Yeah, I got the same feeling. :/

If they take anything from EA, it will be microtransactions.... "Loot Box" Pay x amount of money, and get a possible item that can give you a extreme advantage over the other players. Or just end up wasting your money.

Luke fires two pieces of municipal legislation?

MAJOR SPOILERS

It's funny that people wish for Imperial X-wings while the more likely scenario seems to be Rebel Iden with Rebel Raider

Just now, Dr Zoidberg said:

Yes, both of which demanded instant deconstruction of the death star, and any weapons of war on board, like Tie Fighters, Bombers, blaster rifles, and personal including the loss of power of many key Imperial Personal.

And guess what, it passed!

So its Interceptors with missile pods that are disguised as Fighters? What are these content designers smoking?

OR make a new Corvus set with the new model, but have Rebel AND Imperial versions of the crew, droids, titles, and ship cards. Also have a TIE Fighter fix and X-Wing fix in there.

When a ship is destroyed, you decrement a counter and put it back on the table, good as new. When the counter hits zero, you lose.

If they start the counter at about 150 like they do in BF2... well, i think we are going to see more games go to time! :)
