darkcap232 Yeah exactly. I wouldn’t want that stuff since it would deminish this game’s competitiveness and it really is a Battlefront 2-ish thing. I’m LOVING the way this game is turning out so hereby “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”. EDIT: The cg short came out < Hype level +10 ^ >
VR players are absolutely going to have an advantage. I've played flight sims for a long time and the ability to move your head freely is utterly game changing in any flight game. As a rule of thumb in aircraft/spacecraft combat: the pilot who sees the enemy first generally wins the engagement.
I’m not trying to be rude here, but as a VR player, and also having played DCS for a long time, I would disagree, and say that a proper use of your radar and BFM is what decides whether you get killed or not
Yeah, I'm really not a fan of mollycoddling every cranky whiner. Space is, shockingly, mostly empty space. Not hitting something at full speed shouldn't be a problem. Also what is truly awful is consider just how many ships were destroyed in star wars by way of their opponent leading them on a difficult to fly canyon run, or building weave that results in them cratering into an overpass. But in this game, apparently, they just bounce off and continue to follow? That's really bad.
I think a head on collision at max speed will probably kill you. These are ships that can fly in an out of atmospheres at high speed with no preparation and handle crazy G’s. It would expect it to hold up at least a little bit for slower and glancing collisions
yeah that is the one thing that is bothering me, come on how did they not think about that, especially when the fighter grinds the side of the ship it just bounces like a basket ball, wings should be ripping off and you should be losing all control until your demise
@@Lozwave I think they thought of that, but did not want it to be that you lose a game because everyone just crashes. It steers away from BF2 starfighter assault, where when a mm of your ship glances an asteroid you explode. You still take damage going slowly in the starfighter, and you take more the faster you go. The ships are heavy duty not like pieces of flying paper. Plus it prevents people from throwing by just crashing their ship if their losing.
I have played DCS world for over 600 hours, and trust me.... Cold starting your plane is interesting exactly one time, and after that it's a chore. I'm totally happy with having a hot engine ready to ROCK!
Me too. "Flies like a sleepy hutt", but I don't know why it is great, powerful and a blast. Shame no turret gunners around. BTW you have another crazy joining you. GOLD 2 Standing by.
Anakin still had a father until episode 9, since in a comic it shows Palpatine controlling midichlorians to make Anakin’s mom pregnant of Anakin therefore making Palpatine technically Anakin’s dad
I have an idea on how s-foils could work, by default, you would be in attack mode, (S-foils separated). But, when you would forward more power to the engines, they would switch into cruise mode, (S-foils connected). This would work for the U-wing and X-wing. This is honestly my idea on how deploying s-foils would work in a way that doesn’t add a new feature or change the way the game is played for each fighter. The s-foils changing would not have any performance upgrades aside from the ones given by switching the power to make sure the fighters stay balanced.
I am so excited to finally be able to fly a *good* TIE Interceptor. I'm going to be flying pretty much exclusively that. It's always been my favorite ship.
I got my Nik'ta blown up across five parsecs by droid starfighters, trying to evade them over the orbit of Corusuant. I spun, and then I got BLOWN UP!! So don't tell me that it's a lie. And never, *EVER* accuse me of being a liar, you Shol'Va!
When I first saw Bombastic , it was funnies of EA BF 1, "Stay bombastic" :KABOOM Emote:. He is serious about this game and I am watching. Very intrigued. Bombastic has given out the most info so far for SW Squadrons now. I'll be keeping a close eye on you , Bombastic.
I've been wanting a game like this ever since testing out the U.S. Air and Space Museum's VR Flight Simulator as a young lad back in the late 90's - early 2000's. This is a dream come true.
I just want to get physically into the ship Just have an animation in first person of hopping in the hatch and flipping some switches and then flying out of the hanger, that would be cool
I bet single player might show them climbing aboard and stuff it makes more since in a competitive multiplayer game to have them already flying and ready to go
I'm most excited for the trade-off of the different types of ships!!! This will FORCE players to play each ship with slightly different tactics. 👍 Way to go EA!
There is friendly fire, or at least the pilot voices whine at each other when doing so. Hard to verify if it does any damage but the pilots definitely acknowledge it.
I got into the alpha and agree with most of what you say in this Q&A. I let the other members of my family play and everyone loved it (ages range 9- 62). I gave a lot of positive feedback and at least 6 people are buying the game because they were able to have a play. I hope they allow an open beta so more people get the chance to play. If you liked Xwing vs Fie Fighter or Xwing alliance then this game is for you. It is not as on rails as battlefront 2. I have 4hrs left to play the alpha and got some Reables to kill
I've always thought that there should be ships called relics like the v wing for the empire or the arc 170 for the new republic which are hard to obtain or cost a lot of credits
If you want more "Immersion" that is not available in the game, then get it on PC and get "VoiceAttack" where you can give voice commands that execute controls in game. It makes it a ton of fun, and 10x better including VR and Flight sticks.
bro this game in VR HITS DIFFERENT Idk how any of you can play it non-VR, SHITS FUCKING AMAZING, makes the WHOLE experience so much better. at least by 70 percent
4:32 that should be a game mode, whenever you would get a new part you would have to pick it up at toche station but because their low on stock you have to get there before the other players, and to be able to use the part you would have to win this gamemode once. its the battle royale mode that this game needs
In addition to the movie characters, I think we spotted Rae Sloane from the books/comics in the trailer as well, so I'm looking forward to seeing if any other New EU characters show up, especially the pilots like Thane Kyrell or Nash Windrider. Otherwise, I'm really looking forward to spending all my time messing around in fleet battles, so I hope the game keeps a healthy amount of maps and scenarios in future additions.
My answer for question 50 is the story mode. It seems really interesting switching between republic and empire and seeing their different perspectives about each, and learning more about the Star hawk project
I played a racing game once where you could color your car any way you wanted and put together your own decals to put on your car, creating basically any symbols you could think of and putting them wherever you wanted on the vehicle. I would love to see a system like that applied to a game like this, so players could create their own unique squadron with unique name, symbols and colorings.
Great video I love the actual list of questions you went with, I just wish there was more people out there understanding that it's a more advanced version of Rogue Squadron
I hope they add component set ups, so we can save different load outs we have, for different styles of play within each class Edit: as well as custom games, I want to face my friends without interruption from randoms
Repulsor field was a thing in X Wing - Rogue Squadron and shields bouncing of each other I think. I know Corran Horn flew towards the ground and used his Repulsors field to bounch of the ground.
12:30 yeah, the game is huge, and you only notice how fast you're really going when there's something stationary or other ships close by for reference, especially in interceptors.
With regard to joystick, the T16000 from Thrustmaster is easily the best value for money, especially as a first stick. It’s competitive with any premium stick.
Question: I notice when you run into something, ya don’t blow up, do you take damage? Or do you just not die from ramming into something. I’m sure you’ve covered this before
i guess the old days of death by flaming wreckage are over , i miss those TIE Fighter days. Its funny how people are wondering about power system management when it already existed back in the days of Xwing
This totally has an old-school "Wing Commander" feel to it. At least, I think so. And I, personally, cannot wait to jump into this game when it comes out!
@@bobsteryt we could get the viion of the vulture droid, maybe have like a red vision, and like pop up notifications of like our shileds and other stuff
The ship I will fly the most: “The Legendary, The Sexy, The OG, The Badass, The Old One, The Capital Ships Worst Nightmare” Our Lord and Savior (The Y-Wing) So prey for our lord “Amen”
Barrage Three how is it the best? If you can’t aim then raw power means nothing. If you are to slow to get to the capital ship before getting destroyed then raw power is nothing.
Hi! I am from sweden probaly one of your biggest fans it would make my day if you could respond with hmm because I like yoda and he is my favourite character
I’ll definitely be playing this in VR as much as possible. From my experience, VR gives you more peripheral vision. In the X-Wing VR mission, being able to loo directly to your left or right to find your target helped immensely. Was also easier to focus a fighter down with your vision and zero your ship in on where you were looking. If this plays like that, I’m gonna be so happy
I have waited for a game like this for a long time. I'm hoping that maybe just MAYBE they'll add a Battle Station-like game mode. The Endor Trench run in this era of gaming is a dream for me. As for my ship of choice... "The Incom T-65 X-Wing is the fighter that killed [all 3 Death Stars]. An almost perfect balance of speed, maneuverability, and defensive shields, which makes this the fighter of choice for Rogue Squadron, except when the mission profile disallows it." Says it all, really.
Honestly, I hope it'll be fecking tough in the beginning. Flying ain't supposed to be easy and it'll make it more fun to learn when you fly through space in your favourite ship. At that, you can collect cool cosmetics and skins and whatnot. I preordered it yesterday, can't wait.
There is definitely an advantage when in VR mode. Being able to look to the left, right, and up while flying is very helpful. How much of an advantage? I guess that is relative to who is playing.
Hmm... Probably support. I know most people won't agree on that, but Support is usually my favorite class in video games. I'm looking forward to all the upgrades and changes you can make to your ship. I LOVE how there is two different currencies, too! (Since I would never by cosmetics over abilities)
In regards to the "it looks like you're going slow" issue... yes as Bombastic says, it's important to remember that out in the vastness of space without visual reference points passing by it would be difficult to get a sense of speed. Heck, at high enough altitude in a real-life plane the world goes by beneath you "slowly" even if you're going 500mph. But the second thing to keep in mind is... starfighter combat in Star Wars was very deliberately modeled off of aerial dogfights in World War I and World War II... which took place at relatively low speeds (say 100mph in WW1 and 300mph in WW2), at close range, with guns only... because it's more fun and intelligible for movie audiences to watch. Recreating that feel in a video game so we can all live out our X-Wing pilot fantasies probably DOES mean that the ships in the game are moving fairly "slowly" because if they were doing supersonic speeds then the maps would need to be much larger and the entire style of gameplay would change.
I hope they include more ships later on, like a stealth ship (TIE Phantom & Z-95), Heavy Bomber (TIE Advanced & B-Wing), & Super Ship with impossibly difficult controls but infinite rewards (TIE Defender & E-Wing). Maybe even heavy but clunky ships, like the Sorusub Preybird & YT-class freighters.
I enjoy the shield system and that the empire has no shields. It shows how the empire is more of an offensive fleet compared to the more defensive rebel squadron.
I really hope this follows similar to the X-Wing miniatures board game, where they slowly release more and more fighters as "waves" .. which could just be paid DLC. There are tonnes of Starfighters that could be added, not to mention extra factions such as Scum & Villainy, New Order, Resistance etc.
I like how they actually got the correct size for capital ships like the star destroyer you can actually fly around and beside it and feel how large it is
One thing I noticed about playing Squadrons and that I miss from the original Star Wars flight sims was the head-lock on a target. There wasn't a key bind option for that in the settings. Hope that ability in the final game because otherwise, it feels like you're having "tunnel vision" lol
Quick question for squadrons. If your getting shot at from behind can you reverse engines and put shields at the front and do a 180 degree turn and shoot the enemy? I would love to do that if it’s a thing.

I second that motion... Situational Awareness wins fights, and a lack of it gets you killed.
Maybe for Republic ships as they have a large canopy. Tie ship only have a front window so vr probably won't do much for them

the one thing I really don't like, is that it seems when you have a head on collision with a barrier, you don't explode, you just bounce off.

In the old Star Wars X-wing you couldn't fire with the s-foils closed.
even in the canon already, the foils on the X-Wing move into attack position and also position for speed/maneuverability

It should at least leave the ship with a bent nose for realism.
Depend where your ship hits in bf2 to explode.

A good 4D chair for this with the VR set up will be amazing. Experiencing the Tie fighter/ T65- X Wing with G force on a chair that moves as you do.
Who else saw 'evil bombastic in captions'?
I'm just excited to play the game. I love Starfighter Assult and the fact that this could be even better makes me super keen to play it.
I would die if they remake X-wing and Tie Fighter in this engine or DLC
late question: can you look around your cockpit with joystick/mouse, like some racing games or can you only look around with vr?
This game had four (!) predecessors and none of them was called Battlefront. Learn at least about X-Wing vs TIE Fighter from 1997.
yes, it really hrt my feelings
But it is battlefront,it nothing like xwing
Most excited for VR in squadrons can not wait to play this game with full immersion
How many times did he says immersive?
FJHT Perfect at least once.
Looking forward to flying a tie interceptor in vr instruments only. Dream come true! Now we need wing commander 3 remade in vr!
7:12 Thank You Bombastic appreciated!!!
I’ll definitely be playing this in VR as much as possible. From my experience, VR gives you more peripheral vision. In the X-Wing VR mission, being able to loo directly to your left or right to find your target helped immensely. Was also easier to focus a fighter down with your vision and zero your ship in on where you were looking. If this plays like that, I’m gonna be so happy
The thing I am most excited for is the gameplay. Looks fun.
I have waited for a game like this for a long time. I'm hoping that maybe just MAYBE they'll add a Battle Station-like game mode. The Endor Trench run in this era of gaming is a dream for me. As for my ship of choice...
"The Incom T-65 X-Wing is the fighter that killed [all 3 Death Stars]. An almost perfect balance of speed, maneuverability, and defensive shields, which makes this the fighter of choice for Rogue Squadron, except when the mission profile disallows it."
Says it all, really.
Honestly, I hope it'll be fecking tough in the beginning. Flying ain't supposed to be easy and it'll make it more fun to learn when you fly through space in your favourite ship. At that, you can collect cool cosmetics and skins and whatnot. I preordered it yesterday, can't wait.
There is definitely an advantage when in VR mode. Being able to look to the left, right, and up while flying is very helpful. How much of an advantage? I guess that is relative to who is playing.
Thank God bombers will actually be bombers. It ticked me off so much in Battlefront two where bombers were just basically heavy fighters.
Like having them bomb units during ground battles or be super effective against objectives would have been sweet but they butchered it.
Can’t wait for this to come out! May buy a vr headset just for this!
Hmm... Probably support. I know most people won't agree on that, but Support is usually my favorite class in video games.
I'm looking forward to all the upgrades and changes you can make to your ship. I LOVE how there is two different currencies, too! (Since I would never by cosmetics over abilities)
That drift is gonna be nuttyyyyyyy
In regards to the "it looks like you're going slow" issue... yes as Bombastic says, it's important to remember that out in the vastness of space without visual reference points passing by it would be difficult to get a sense of speed. Heck, at high enough altitude in a real-life plane the world goes by beneath you "slowly" even if you're going 500mph. But the second thing to keep in mind is... starfighter combat in Star Wars was very deliberately modeled off of aerial dogfights in World War I and World War II... which took place at relatively low speeds (say 100mph in WW1 and 300mph in WW2), at close range, with guns only... because it's more fun and intelligible for movie audiences to watch. Recreating that feel in a video game so we can all live out our X-Wing pilot fantasies probably DOES mean that the ships in the game are moving fairly "slowly" because if they were doing supersonic speeds then the maps would need to be much larger and the entire style of gameplay would change.
I hope they include more ships later on, like a stealth ship (TIE Phantom & Z-95), Heavy Bomber (TIE Advanced & B-Wing), & Super Ship with impossibly difficult controls but infinite rewards (TIE Defender & E-Wing). Maybe even heavy but clunky ships, like the Sorusub Preybird & YT-class freighters.
From what I’ve seen, it appears that power regulating looks a lot like that of Elite: Dangerous (a really awesome open galaxy space exploration game)
Yeah, I'm pretty excited about the similarities with ED. Feel like I need to go play that a lot between now and October 2 to brush up my pilot skills!
Which borrowed that mechanic from the original X-wing, lol.
I enjoy the shield system and that the empire has no shields. It shows how the empire is more of an offensive fleet compared to the more defensive rebel squadron.
@@Goferek5 very true it always seemed like they are
Id love for seperatist and republic ships to be added, mostly because I think the “cockpit” of one of the droid fighters would be super interesting
Can't wait to hop onto it in VR, coming right from Elite Dangerous.
I really hope this follows similar to the X-Wing miniatures board game, where they slowly release more and more fighters as "waves" .. which could just be paid DLC. There are tonnes of Starfighters that could be added, not to mention extra factions such as Scum & Villainy, New Order, Resistance etc.
I like how they actually got the correct size for capital ships like the star destroyer you can actually fly around and beside it and feel how large it is
Most excited to use a HOTAS in a Star Wars game. And I'm looking forward to the Tie Fighters and A-Wings.
Your vids are so calming
One thing I noticed about playing Squadrons and that I miss from the original Star Wars flight sims was the head-lock on a target. There wasn't a key bind option for that in the settings. Hope that ability in the final game because otherwise, it feels like you're having "tunnel vision" lol
Quick question for squadrons. If your getting shot at from behind can you reverse engines and put shields at the front and do a 180 degree turn and shoot the enemy? I would love to do that if it’s a thing.
