Is HeroHunt the same as Hero Assault in Battlefront II?

I really, really hope it is!!

 

[FreezerGeezer]

All looks great.

Really looking forward to playing it.

 

[darkbanjo]

All that talk about 'Blast', and it's called Team Deathmatch in the game's code.

 

[Noobcraft]

Is HeroHunt the same as Hero Assault in Battlefront II?

I really, really hope it is!!

Tatooine, Hangar (aka duel arena). Tatooine Assault was awesome.

 

[Croatoan]

Is supremacy conquest?

 

[RoKKeR]

Can't wait to play that innovative and exciting new mode "Team Deathmatch".

Hope one of these is Conquest.

 

[Samurai G0SU]

i'll be on the hype train once more star wars trailers release along side battlefront.

 

[TheSeks]

40 players max? RIP Frostbite engine.

 

[drotahorror]

Conquest is innovative?

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

Is supremacy conquest?

If this is accurate it pretty much confirms it.

 

[RoKKeR]

Conquest is innovative?

It was a joke referencing them hyping up the exciting reveal of a new game mode and it turned out to be TDM.

 

[NerdEyeBlind]

I'm assuming a player count of 40 is 20 vs. 20.

Nice.

 

[Falchion]

Cool info, I wish they'd officially reveal all the other modes and rank system.

 

[MiguelItUp]

I'm shocked we haven't seen more content with the game only being months away. Are there any special events or anything coming up where would they may show more information? I'm at that point right now where I enjoy surprises, however, I want more!

 

[Walpurgis]

Is there any info on server browsers? Last I heard, it seemed like DICE was removing them (some alpha files pointed to that). This would be a deal breaker for me.

 

[Nubian Star]

It's probably because when you play the Alpha your gamer tag is floating around the screen

 

[Burger_Baron]

Is HeroHunt the same as Hero Assault in Battlefront II?

I really, really hope it is!!

Could be a game mode where one player is Hero and the rest are normal grunts trying to take him down.

Although I hope they include Hero Assault, it was awesome.

 

[jediyoshi]

All that talk about 'Blast', and it's called Team Deathmatch in the game's code.

And as we all know, it's always useful when coding to obfuscate terms for reference's sake

 

[SomTervo]

40 players max? RIP Frostbite engine.

Imo once you go over 16 players per team the returns on player-count are diminishing. 60 vs 60 looks as impressive as 24 vs 24, and I've played lots of multiplayer games with variable counts. Heck, The Last of Us has impressive scale sometimes and it's 5 v 5.

You probably weren't being serious though. Duurrrr.

 

[Whompa02]

20 v 20 sounds great! Can't wait to play.

 

[harz-marz]

20 vs 20 is more than enough!

 

[Dabanton]

Would have loved at least one mode where we could have 60 players.

It all depends on the scale and the design of the game. BC2s 12 vs 12 worked well cause it was designed around that number. But planetside with 12 vs 12......ghost town.

 

[krang]

20 v 20 sounds great! Can't wait to play.

20 vs 20 plus AI.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

20 vs 20 plus AI.

As far as we know AI is only in Fighter Squadron, thankfully. I'd be much less excited about this game if AI were on by default in every mode.

 

[ultrazilla]

Can you get an interrogation droid?

 

[JumPeRJumPzZ]

Is supremacy conquest?

With that Player count, it probably is.

20 vs 20 plus AI.

there is no AI on 20vs20 gamemodes.

Only mode with AI so far is Fighter Squadron which is 10vs10 + 20 bots.

 

[Rygar 8 Bit]

will only be playing the 64 player pc servers to hell with your 40 limits

 

[Dreamwriter]

Holy cow, this has to be the worst breaking of NDA I've ever heard of - "Here is all the code from the closed alpha and other files converted to a readable format .txt".

 

[JumPeRJumPzZ]

will only be playing the 64 player pc servers to hell with your 40 limits

In the Alpha Code there was no sign of a Server Browser... good luck finding a server with more players...

40 is fine.

 

[Timu]

I thought Team Deathmatch was 20 players...maybe this is just the alpha or something.

id assume it uses battlelog

 

[RoboPlato]

Supremacy is likely a Conquest equivalent, right?

 

[JumPeRJumPzZ]

The game wont use Battlelog.

Supremacy is likely a Conquest equivalent, right?

Probably is, yes

I thought Team Deathmatch was 20 players...maybe this is just the alpha or something.

Yeah only the team deathmatch player count seems to be wrong. The others are right. Maybe they were testing more players for TDM and didnt work or so.

 

[Rygar 8 Bit]

The game wont use Battlelog.

that sucks

edit: wait have they come out and said that or we just going by the alphas that have been out i gotta look into this

edit of a edit: hmm looks like it wont be straight up battlelog battlelog but they are making something like it just for this game so who knows how the server stuff will work heres hoping people can put up custom servers
