VIDEO GAMES: Check Out Two Awesome New Images From STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT
EA and DICE continue to reveal new images and details from Star Wars Battlefront, with epic shots of the "Drop Zone" game mode and Darth Vader leading an army of Stormtroopers into battle on Hoth now online. Hit the jump for the latest details and stills...
In "Drop Zone", gamers will be able to play eight on eight matches where they have to protect drop pods which land on the surface of whatever map you're playing on. You can see an example of that in one of the new Star Wars Battlefront images below, while the other focuses on Darth Vader. "We’re promoting the idea of a fast, action-packed game where you need to be mobile and think on your feet," says Lead Level Designer Dennis Brännvall. "Camping doesn’t really pay off…Playing Drop Zone on the Swamp Crash Site on Endor is a personal favorite. The map has a couple of nice choke points but is overall very free-flowing and hectic, as enemies can attack from anywhere on that level. The fight takes place around a crashed GR-75 transport ship with containers from the craft strewn across the landscape, and there’s one section with a waterfall overlooked by an Ewok village, where you have to jump down into the pool below in order to claim the pod, hoping no one’s hiding in the trees above waiting to pick you off." Are you looking forward to the game?
