I feel SO called out right now.
Lmao
As a Steve, I also felt a little shamed. Cloud cars are dope! :P
@@thedapperfoxtrot legendary thread here
You aren't alone with having an old die-cast Cloud Car toy and loving the ship because it was the first one you had ever gotten

I would love to see a Clone Wars era dlc for this.
@@stretchygeneral3433 Agree, but that wont happen.
CIS pretty limited on that
Yeah except SEQUEL
@@akumaking1
Fighter: vulture Droid
Bomber: Hyena bomber
Interceptor: Tri-fighter
Support: Droid Gunship
Capital ship: Dreadnaught
Cruiser: the ones seen in the OG BF II's space battles
@@akumaking1 Imma stop you right their chef,
1. Vulture Droid -Similar to a TIE with no shields less health and armor, but greater mobility, and unique weapon loadouts. (Dot Buzz droid missiles) Fighter
2. Tri-Droid -Tie interceptor with even more agility and buzz droid missiles. Interceptor
3. Hyena Bomber, slower than a tie Bomber but with greater torpedo and missile capacity. Bomber
4. HMP-Gunship Slow heavily armed, shielded, lots of guns. Support
Boom all four classes of starfighter done.
Funny in "Legends" the B wing is faster and
more agile then the Y wing.
Thats why i like Legends the ships except a few are smaller but way more powerful.
Y-wing is best -wing, you can't convince me otherwise
The B-Wing as always been superior to the Y-wing in games.
Just like the A-wing is better than the X-wing.
But A and B are less iconic than X and Y.
@@diersteinjulien6773 you know, when I was little, I used to think the B wing was complete garbage because you really only see them getting killed in episode 6, so I just thought they were bad. But still, I just think the B wing looks weird, and isn't as versatile as the Y wing, which can at least defend itself with the rotating turret
@@kostakatsoulis2922 Lord Vader agreed- they explode so much more satisfyingly.
@@diersteinjulien6773 I'm sorry but the b wing is completely useless in dog fights, unlike y wings. B wings are harder to fly and lacked bomb shoots, unlike y wing. Oh and the y wing is a long range light bomber, the b wing is short range heavy bomber
B-Wing: Considering that even the characters in-universe have a hard time flying this ship, it’s probably a good idea that it’s not available to the players.
T-70 X-Wing: “It’s not that different”. That’s likely why they didn’t include it in the first place. What incentive could they have to bring people to the T-70 if the more iconic and beloved T-65b is available?
TIE/d Defender: This one is probably not in the game because of balance issues. It’s objectively the best version of the TIE series, and absolutely crushes whatever the Rebels throw at it. How do you balance that for a multiplayer game?
Millennium Falcon: Again, balance. I could see it as something akin to hero units in Battlefront, but that removes the co-op team composition aspect.
ARC-170: This required three people and an Astromech to fly properly, and wasn’t _really_ meant for frontline engagements anyway. Much like it’s special forces counterpart (ARC Troopers), it’s arguable that it wasn’t utilized properly in its initial deployments. Just because it _can_ dish out a lot of damage doesn’t mean it’ll make w good dogfighter.
The Tie Phantom would just be the most annoying adversary, but as the pilot…
Yessssss
I think it depends on how they handle the cloaking device- charge time, how long does the cloak hold, firing (or maneuvering) while its on... and if there were reasonable trade offs, (was it more fragile than most TIE models, scanner deadzones due to interference from the cloak, etc), I could see it working well.
Also depends on how they are going about adding legends ships to canon. I think it would be cool to see them get added through this medium, but not sure if the Disney overlords will allow it
@@jakelowe8023 Actually most of those ships ARE canon 0_0
@@bobbuilder1009 I think you would just make an interceptor and its characteristics would be that it is slower, has shields, remove heal loadout and replace with cloaking. Could work nicely.
I would absolutely love to fly a Mandalorian Gauntlet Kom'rk-class fighter/transport. Can you imagine how cool it would be to see the wings rotating 360 degrees and firing their wing mounted blaster turrets in VR?!! It would be the coolest thing ever
That’s 50m long by 50m wide target probably unlikely..
But you Might see a Fang class starfighter once modding starts.. it’s a little brother of the Kom’rk ..
R0T-N2 D-C0R4 that would be an acceptable alternative
Definitely would fly a fang fighter
Give me a tie defender EA thats all I want in life rn
Yep in the orginal tie fighter game the defender was a god overpowered ship with lasers , ion cannons, missles, and tractor beam. A wings were cake if you could get a tractor lock on them and shoot them like fish in a barrel.
Update: the B wing and TIE defender are coming very soon but I’m sure u probably know
Well do I have neeews for youuu
I came from the future and EA did add TIE-Defender
@@k-874 and it’s op
Surprise E wing or Tie Advance wasn't mention.
The TIE advanced v1 did appear in the game but it was piloted by Lindon Javes when he defected from the Empire and was not available to be piloted by the player (likely because it would have been too powerful and unbalanced for normal gameplay).
@@neillindgren8992 I think you over thinking it little bit. Yeah you are probably right the TIE advance would be OP, but i honestly think it would be easily fix by adding another game mode.
Have a elimination mode that goes for 5 or the best of 7, the only starfighter you can fly is the Tie Advance or Defender vs New Republic equivalent superiority fighter like the E-wing. It somewhat fits the canon and we all have the chance fly or favorite fighter.
P.S I want to fly the x1 not the v1
NewtMeister J Flying the x1 would be cool, and likely would be even better than the v1. Hopefully they’ll eventually make a game with a longer single player campaign (where balance wouldn’t be a concern) where you can have a much better variety of ships to choose from, including the TIE Advanced and E wing.
people would ask whats an E-wing, or Tie Avenger, only rogue squadron, and Tie fighter fans would know. anyway. good mention
@@hughmungus6479 Not sure if the E-Wing has been cannonized yet. Would like to see the old Z-95 in action again
If you played Star Wars Starfighter you know the pain of flying a B Wing like craft. Its not fun with a large hitbox that is in your blindspot. The Arc-170 is based off of the Black widow night fighter.
Barry Bend Besides looking like a six-winged X-wing, there’s always been something about the ARC-170 that looked familiar.
You mean the P-61?
I believe the cockpit view of a B Wing is also hard to render because of the rotating cockpit design (render one that don't "rotate" would most likely upset many SW fan players)
@@sonickunckle hence why I mentioned the Guardian Mantis from Star wars Starfighter. Its like a B Wing but in a static position.
The Composite Beam used by the Prototype B-Wing is the same weapon available in Squadrons - the Quarrie Composite Beam Cannon, although it is used by both the Rebels and the Empire. You can tell since the name of the Mol Cal creator is in the weapon's name.
Snow Speeder wrapping up a walkers legs would be cool. What about a V wing from Rogue Squandron or Naboo fighter?
the v wing with the ungodly speedy boost and rkt pods. good lordy that would be amazing but a bit broken and i would say yes to the naboo starfighter though i would more so love to see the police cruiser variant both bigger slower and more armor at the cost of shields it had dumb-fire concussion missiles and a nice timed laser system i would love to see that.
@@TimmythatSquirrel rapid fire mode engaged
@@Raeinok it was such an enraging flite platform but i loved the kholesh/impala cheat code for the V-wing
The V-wing was only an airspeeder, so no in space battles for it. And do we really need another snowspeeder vs AT-AT level? I've been tripping those things up since the Shadows of the Empire days on the N64. lol
@@sectorsecurity4701 snow speeders are airspeeders too
If I was a pilot in star wars I wouldn’t even suvive my first battle.
U think u would make it past training 😂 further than me then
Unless have tons of plot armor.
That one TIE behind Soontir Fel 😂
Ummm @Black hole black, you'd kill anyone who who got close to your event horizon…
I think that’s most of us
Tie Defender, Tie Hunter & Tie Punisher.
Shadows82 TIE hunter FTW
@@red9mm it would be interesting to see if they will add legends ships like the punisher. Would love to see it, not sure if Disney overlords will allow it
tie crawler, tie droid, tie experimental mk 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, tie avenger, tie phantom, tie aggressor, tie scimitar, tie star cruiser. LOL
@@jakelowe8023 TIE Punisher is canon ship. It was called TIE Interdictor in Legends 0_0
TD is way OP. Was created to deal with broken TieFigher gameplay.
The arc 170 actually reminds me of the p-61 black widow, I similarly set up American night fighter which excelled where it was, sporting a radar, new to fighters. The arc 170 should've been made black and stealthy and it wouldve been been perfect
The problem with that is, despite having recon in it's name, the ARC 170 is generally far better as a fighter than as a scouting or recon vehicle. Due to this, I would actually say giving it stealth capabilities would be a waste.
@@blurb9319 its better as a long range strike craft not as a general purpose fighter. Why do you think the Z-95 was used more often.
Barry Bend Fair enough, but still, calling a recon fighter is going a bit far
@@blurb9319 if its sensors are powerful enough it would be good for recon. As a bonus its competition in the clone wars and in the Galactic civil war dont have the range the Arc-170 has.
Barry Bend True, but it would also need to lose those giant cannons. They’re way to heavy for a recon vessel.
The droid tri-fighter, it's probably the best interceptor money can buy.
CIS ships would be different cus most don't have cockpits since they weren't meant to carry pilots
Playing as a "living" star fighter would be a trippy yet cool experience
@@ObliviousNaga that would be a REAL first person flying exoerience. You dont experience it from the pilot, you see it from the ships perspective. Like the Vulture droid, either a fighter or an interceptor, and instead of a cockpit, you just have a stylized hud. I want the Vulture almost as much as the TIE Defender or Phantom.
@@radekvaverka7285 and VR should still work on a vulture or hyena as the head can move independently. I so want a clone wars expansion now.
Yes but technically it’s not a star fighter
It’s a droid
I'd rather have playable capital ships
Also, I'm just happy the Y wing is actually very useful in this game, good to see it get some love.
Bomber classes are usually THE overpowered ship in star wars space combat from the last 15 years or so. Tanks that dish out the damage of an interceptor AND can decimate capital ship systems? Yes please.
Com’on, we have the B-Wing on PC in the last century! How hard could it be?
If they gave us T-70 and T-85s at all, I'd love it if they were just reskinned X-Wings. Plain old model change, no rebalancing or adding another ship to the Imperial side needed, just a fresh model. Keep content simple and frequent, and I'd be so happy
but they'd have to either have a smaller hitbox, or be a size inaccurate to the lore
people would be rather unhappy regardless
T-70 prototypes were actually introduced at the time and I think they could counterbalance TIE Defender. Not a chance for T-85'e, as it is way before its time, even if it is amazing.
If they did that the could also add moth Gideons toe fighter as a tie skin
@@everettdumolien2549 "moth gideons toe fighter"
@@meeperdudeify You didn't know that his controls were actually cybernetic toe implants>????
On point, yeah I think more skins would solve a lot of the problems. The hitbox size difference doesn't matter as the game makes the hitboxes bigger than the craft already. I think the model for the newer versions would at most make that even more obvious.
A mission where you have to protect the Bwing while he attacks a destroyer
But then what's the point of bomber.
@Amber Hoke No I'm saying that if the mission is to escort a B-wing to the target then why would you use a bomber to protect a B-wing, which is also made for anti capital ship. I suppose you can outfit a bomber with anti-fighter armaments but its not very popular approach to the class.
"No such thing as perfect" Clearly, you've never witnessed the A-10 in all its glory my friend. It is perfection in ground attack.
I'd love to see a StarViper make a showing.
That would be cool indeed. Unfortunately StarViper is not recognized as Cannon, as many other awesome starships from Star Wars Legends.
Was gonna say this. By far my favorite fighter in SW.
Yeah, was kind of disappointed that there wasn’t going to be coming as DLC.
YES I like the cloud car... even though I don't have a die-cast model of it.
Your profile pic should be that same Sheev face pasted onto the front of Slave 1
I have a friend that had that die cast and loved it because of it lol
4 ships to add in 2 dlc packages here you go EA
*New Republic*
*B-Wing* : Dont worry about fixing the gyroscope cockpit, simply fix it in position and the craft is fine the way it is doesnt need complicated control scheme.
*Imperials*
*Alpha Class X-G Assault Gunboat* : Pay homage to the games roots of xwing vs tie fighter and bring this classic back. Same role as bwing heavy attack craft.
2nd DLC
*Rebels*
*Z-95 Headhunter* : high powered armour and heavy blasters for medium long range engagements. As well as boom and zoom tactics.
*Imps*
*Tie Defender or Tie Advanced* : Same tactics as above mention z95
I would love to have a trench mode, involving attacking an enemy base. That would be awesome.
I half agree with the first 2 choices but the XG-1 is very different from the B-Wing. the TIE Brute is a more direct answer to it, also I would say that giving it a complicated control scheme would be a good way to balance it, make the Y-Wing and TIE Bomber easier to fly, and the B-Wing / TIE Brute a high point of entry.
I VEHEMENTLY Disagree with the Z-95, it's NOT high powered at ANYTHING, it's weaker than the A-Wing and slower than the X-Wing, while having the lowest firepower of any rebel ship. it's a low tier ship that would only work if it had a lower morale cost to your team if destroyed. The TIE Defender is the opposite, it's SUPERIOR AT EVERYTHING that the others specialize in, so it would either A) require it's own mode and/or B) would have a MUCH higher morale cost if destroyed. Possibly making the difference between full morale and falling back entirely.
@@moffxanatos6376 I'm not talking about actual stats. I'm talking about DLC add ons for this game. You got the info, that's great. But Brute isnt Canon. I was discussing more so options that are actually available. And the control scheme with the BWing the only thing I can think on the consoles for the control is changing the "view" right analog click would be the rotation button. HOWEVER with the amount of things you have to do in this game constantly, adding rotational hull, most gamers wont beable to comprehend it. Let alone some pilots. It was the hardest starfighter to fly in the republic navy for a reason.
@@moffxanatos6376 in argument of the Z-95 because I agree it is underpowered (i just personally like the design of either the original or clones wars version) perhaps a augmented ARC-170 updated for the republic. With Rear gunner it's an interesting option.
@@moffxanatos6376 I also stand corrected about Tie Brute Canon. I didnt realize it was in solo, never really considered that a star wars movie lol.
@@moffxanatos6376 in that case I'm surprised the tie striker isnt an option. But the FOV in the cockpit is meh.
This game deserves long term support... I would pay for more ships!
Idk the competitive side of it is pretty low tier
MattD they can always improve on That as time goes on I think all fans want more for this game
@@pvtjokerr4415 EA leaving fans unsatisfied and wanting more. As per.
Jusz clicked, I will be sad if the Defender isnt here.
Edit: im happy.
theres no *way* to add it to the game and do it justice, either it will be super nerfed in the name of balance which i really dont want, or just be better than every other ship in the game at pretty much every role
like id love it to be there but I can never see it being balanced with whatever rebel ship they add as its counterpart
Well I reckon the Defender would work if there’s just one for a squad
@@drhoagy_4459 b-wing
Only way to make it work would be a special mode. My idea would be a dogfight mission where two defenders take on 8 rebels.
@@ImperialZorn686 a B wing has similar amount of firepower, but is far far slower and less manoverable
The tie D just is so insanely ovrrspecced it can match a b wing in firepower, an A wing in speed, a Tie inteceptor in manoverability and a Y wing in shields
All at once
I think it's a pretty good selection "For Now" considering the attention to detail both outside and the great looking inside even the area behind the cockpit which isn't ever seen without a VR headset. Let's hope to get more ships as time goes on.
You can free look without VR.
Having a rear gunner for the Y-wing would be good also. You are almost a sitting duck when attacking a capital ship. Good to have eyes in the back of your head. You can still have 5 ships but have back seaters in Y-wing and 2 gunners in the falcon and copilot in the reaper and U-Wing could increase the fun level and reduce the risk to the supply ships and Canon fodder.
you wanna go even slower?
@@meeperdudeify self deployed tractor beams do that lock on to a pice of debris and 90 degree turn... right into the other side of it.
Yea every thing slower you down its annoying but there you have it.
Game studios often think that playing "just a gun turret" wouldn't interest people, but in all the games that have the capability I find it a lot of fun. It makes it a better game for the pilots of larger ships and you have to adjust to what someone else is doing on your own ship. I mark it as a highly desirable feature in a game.
So just throw balance out the window and give a ridiculous advantage to the terrorist.... Sorry.... Rebel forces?
@@wheelerthree 2 seater bomber one flies and shoots while one controls payload. The ships are what they are. Shielded Rebel ships and over powered laser Imps.
When the space starts speaking imperial March
The B-wing and the TIE defender are too powerful for Star Wars Squadrons.
Lmao
"I'm sure there's even a die hard cloud car fan, because it was their only die cast model....no judgement Steve."
Fucking dead😂
If I am going to be a non-force using pilot then set me up with with a Legends TIE Hunter. It's the Sienar version of the X-Wing.
It:
Is as fast or even faster than an A-Wing
Has ion cannons and several proton torpedoes
Is equipped with a hyperdrive and shields
It is very arguably the best fighter in its era.
Otherwise, send me the TIE Silencer if I can use the force. Despite the trilogy it comes from, that thing is an overpowered race car.
I also would like to see the E-wing and the TIE Avenger.
Not sure about the E-Wing, but the Avenger hasn't been made cannon. Don't forget the new games focus on ships in cannon, not legends/EU
Uh huh...
@@terrythompson1873 E-Wing suck. I suspect that they officially replace it with T-70.
@@amordramon22 TIE Avenger (TIE Advance x1) was in first Star Wars you troll 0_0
Uh huh
You want me to get into a fighter that is slower and less maneuverable then an already stripped down Y-Wing, no sir.
It has a lot of boom boom tho
If you want Boom boom, just go for the MG-100, it’s not much slower and has a LOT more boom boom
@@GenerationTech This is making me want to buy a game at full price and from EA no less, you guys are a bad influence.
It's not a dogfighter. It can survive runs on capitol ships. You have to play it smart and working in groups is preferred, but it is definitely a capable ship. The gyroscope design made it a lot of fun in the old game :)
As with any ship, the balancing in the game makes it fun (or not).
@@dreamcoyote I'm remembering Rogue Squadron on the N64 and the Y wing missions especially the Raid on Sullest where some of the hardest missions because you where such an easy target for the SAM turrets and the Tie Fighters. But now I suppose that could be mitigated with having escort fighters.
Thanks for another great video Allen! I have finally subscribed and am finally commenting. I very much appreciate your inclusion of the Tie Defender, as back when I was in college I was flying through all of the missions from the original LucasArts Tie Fighter game, which I highly recommend to all readers. Definitely had the best set of storylines of the series, including large parts of Thrawn's original "Legends" backstory, as he advances from Vice Admiral to Grand Admiral through the course of the game, eventually defeating a coup attempt by another grand admiral and then taking his place. But, the best thing about that game was the original introduction of the Tie Defender, complete with it's "Legends" backstory. Though I completely understand that your exposition on the Tie Defender was based entirely on the current cannon, this is one of those places where Legends just has a better story. I do say that admitting that the new cannon tells a very good story about Thrawn & the Tie Defender (respect to Star Wars Rebels), but the legends version that you get to play out in the Tie Fighter game is even better, at least in my view. When I finally met all mission goals and secondary objectives in the mission where you fly a Tie Defender as Darth Vader's wingman to rescue the Emperor who had been captured by the traitorous Grand Admiral, well, that was just one of those Star Wars gaming moments that sticks with you. You know what I'm talking about. Thanks Again!
Good news everyone, B-wing and TIE defender are in the game now. Have fun with them
The assault gunship for the empire would have to be in there for me as well as some sort of TIE advance/avenger/hunter.
TIE Ripper is Empire Assault Craft. Contrary to old video games movies actually use that term properly. Look Acclimator Assault Ship. TIE Advance was a Snubfighter similarly like TIE Defender.
Ome Fighter I would like to see is the Tie Hunter.
These fighters where featured on the old Rougue Squadron Games and was a sort of mix between an X-Wing and Tie Fighter.
It had the speed and maneuverability an Interceptor but more firepower and was perfect for disabling ships with its dual ion cannons.
I think they should add mandalorian fang and gauntlet fighters.
Maybe add just 3rd party faction(s) like Hutt cartel, Merc groups (mandos/sun guard), Black Sun, Zahn Consortium, Pirate groups (think Uglies/cheap/scrap craft), maybe rouge/rival Imp elements/factions, Yuuzhan Vong, and other gallatic govs like the Hapans, Corporate Security Sector, Chiss, hell you even have other eras pre republic, clone wars, second gallatic civil war. Never cared for the ship designs in the Legacy era 150ABY (Cade Skywalker's time)
The yellow Naboo starfighters are my favourite, my first star wars toy I ever had was the Naboo palace hanger with those little starfighters
I see everyone here loves the TIE Brute so much they didn't talk about it...
TIE Tank says hello.
@@Finalzero0000 well at least the TIE Tank gets recognized for how useless it is.
The TIE Brute would be a fun addition to the game with that heavy cannon.
However, I think the issue was that it hasn't been featured heavily, and when it did show up, it was in a movie that wasn't as acclaimed.
All the TIE cockpits from Rogue One and Solo, are new cockpits instead of the original cockpit from the Original Star Wars films. The targeting system is different.
Z-95 and uglies. I’d love to see Cygnus Missile Gunboat brought back too
LOL, Uglies would be so hard to implement, but that would be so fun. Slapping random bits together to make pirate ships. Loved the X-Wing book series.
Can we get an Ewok puppet to fly a TIE as well? :D
One thing I'd like to add is the civilian Z-95 Headhunter. In Legends, the ship was so ubiquitous that Rebels could use it to blend in, whenever they needed to avoid notice. In this game, you could, for instance, use that to ambush Imperial ships hiding in what they think it neutral ground, or even have the rest of your squadron (in normal Rebel ships) engage the enemy while you, in the Z-95 and looking like a neutral, sniff out the deadliest threat and stab him in the back when his attention is directed elsewhere. I can picture that being fun.
Using The Deathtroopers painting from SWG in reference to Han and Chewie being everywhere. Kind of surprised to see artwork from SWG in this, that was cool.
I am remembering Gunboats being a part of the Empire in the X-Wing game. Are gunboats in Squadons? If not, they should be!
I loved the Assault Gunboat back in the old TIE Fighter game.
Charles Dunn oh yes of course it was in TIE Fighter too, and it was really good :D
@@charlesdunn6694 Only problem is that from prequels they use term "assault" correctly.
I would play this game endlessly if I got recon missions with Gunboats. Those were my favorite missions in TIE Fighter.
The V-wing whould be nice itt could give the empire a fighter with a astromech and a better Window.
"you know that giant Gatling gun that had a plane built around it"
One of his best lines hence down
Appreciate mentioning the ARC-170 :) My all time favorite.
I would love to fly a Lambda Shuttle. It was one of my alltime favourites and could work as a support (atleast in my eyes). The Tie Defender and B-Wing would be also neat to have.
Imagine a mechanic for Fleet Battles where as a Lambda Shuttle you could approach the Flagship and drop-off a boarding party that destroys the ships systems from the inside over time
@@wet_weather_imp Lambda Shuttle is a NPC ship.
TheRezro I know, I am talking as a player flown ship
@@wet_weather_imp I don't really see the point. U-Wing and TIE Ripper already stretch this.
TheRezro No they don’t
They should make a clone wars Spinoff game of squadron
I agree back in the rogue squadron days the B wing was my favorite thing to fly
I few up as a kid playing that Lucas Arts Tie Fighter game from the mid 90s. And I'd love to be able to fly a Tie Defender again. That thing was amazing.
Maybe add the air speeder and v-wing airspeeder from the old N64 rouge squadron for any in atmosphere missions if there are any I don't have the game so don't know
If they would do that, they probably would also add TIE Striker :D
I’m sorry, t-70? What’s that? Wasn’t that an evolutionary design stage for the t-65b that was rejected in favour of the latter?
I don't know if it was mentioned but, in the Rogue squadron games for the N64, the Falcon was one of the ships you could select for a particular missions and was much more durable than just about anything in the Rebel Arsenal.
Good to see that 2 of these ships are already in the game. It means that EA are listening
What if they added those stupid bombers from the beginning of TLJ? I'd die! 😂
You’d actually probably be fine, the shields and hull of those things are insane and you’d have 3 turrets and 4 heavy cannons, and enough bombs to one shot any ship.
@@xavierpethtel3563 "the shield and hull of those things are insane"
Lol, The last jedi disagrees 😅
Supreme RTS no it agrees, the first bomber takes 7 full TiE SF strafing runs for a total of nearly 40 direct hits from heavy laser cannons before it begins to go down. Cobalt Hammer, the ship that made the bombing run, lost its cockpit, central hull, two turrets, and its shields and still delivered the payload. These things are tough as nails, and with older imperial tech, would be even harder to take down.
Bobspineable that would be a cool gamemode
Xavier Pethtel you could finally add in the First Order Bomber as well
Lambda Class T4-a for the empire, and if we are going with "hero ships" like the falcon. How about the Ghost and Slave 1 too.
Or IG-100 (I think thats the name of the IG-88b ship)
@@radekvaverka7285 that was the same one flown by the magnaguards if I'm not mistaken. Would love to see that one for the CIS in a clone wars expansion
@@jakelowe8023 actually i think it was flown by the bounty hunter IG-88B.
@@jakelowe8023 Lambda Shuttle is already a NPC ship.
I say don't make them Hero ships. Get YT-1300's, KSE Firespray Gunships, and a VCX-100 light freighter? No need to drag in characters that shouldn't be there. Those ships were fairly common as trading ships, which is why smugglers and terrorist cells (rebellion forces) used them. Though if you go by the Bounty Hunter trilogy, the KSE Firespray was a one-off prototype, but that hasn't ever stopped anything before in the Star Wars universe... Remember the 1000 Jedi's running around in Star Wars Galaxies?
E-Wing, Tie Defender, Tie Advanced, Tie Phantom to name a few. The Missile Boat that Thrawn designed would be epic as well or the Star Wing please.
A "comment section" version of this would be great btw. ;)
I loved the B-wing since Rebel Assault 2 on the PS1. If I remember correctly the cockpit detached as an escape pod!

Look you, I heard that fighter pilot disdain for the bomber crews but damnit, I will always love two ships; the Blockade Runner and the Y-Wing. Been there since jump.
While only Vader is shown flying one, I suspect the TIE Advanced, a precursor to the TIE Interceptor, should also be available, possibly as a reconnaissance fighter (as it supposedly did have shields and a hyperdrive.) It should be a challenging alternative option....
My X-wing setup is basically a b-wing, it has -60 maneuverability, Iona and proton torpedoes but I’m currently averaging 80,000 capitol ship damage per game.
On the New Republic it would be cool to see an E-wing (though that may be too far ahead in time) or conversely going back the other direction, having an Arc-170 (can't remember if I'm spelling that right) would be pretty awesome too.
I was so hyped to finally being able to fly an arc 170 in cockpit view in Battlefront 2, I have allways dreamed of a Rogue Squadron like game built around clone pilots in the war against CSI, with Arc 170, V Wing and other funny stuffs.
I love my Y-Wing... Going all the way back the the first Rouge Squadron. Love being able to customize it and fit it with what I want. I tend to us it in both dogfights and fleet battles. I love my setup though, heavy rotary cannon, ion auto cannon, goliath missiles, dampener hull, ray shields with a slam engine... Does pretty well if I say so myself. Lol
I always enjoyed flying the imperial missile boat from the old tie fighter games. Might make a good balancing ship against an ARC170 or B-wing?
Hopefully we see those in expansions. Also, as you touched on, I'd love to see more varied settings: Kaysheek, Coruscant, Naboo, Raxus Prime, Yavin or Bespin, Tatooine or another desert planet, fight NPC droid starfighters, etc
Fun fact: the design of the ARC-170 was in part based off the WWII era Northrop P-61 Black Widow night fighter of the U.S. Army Air Corps.
The falcon would be kinda fun to see as an attacking Corvette alternative. some of the more powerful stuff would be really nice if your team is getting effing obliterated to try and swing the game back as a last ditch kind of special unit.
Yes absolutely. Flying that enormous thing, like it's a fighter jet, through giant trees 3-to-12 miles tall would make it look like a huge bug, and would be too awesome cool for polite words to clearly describe, but be fun to try. .while gasping for breath after the expireance.
Motive: Here’s the B-Wing that you guys wanted.
Fans: YEY!
In-game - *Almost nobody uses it*
The old Delta Jedi Starfighter and N-1 Starfighter should make an appearance
Wanting the Millenium Falcon gave me an idea for a different Game Mode. Something like Convoy defense might be fun. One team would be defending a small group of transport ships while the other was focused on wiping them out. Maybe the attackers have a carrier that moves on the edge of the map
I think a B-Wing would be a nightmare to pilot in any other position than the ship below the cockpit.
I have an idea for new starfighter classes that would incorporate these:
Stealth/Recon - focused on surprise strikes. TIE Phantom and ARC - 170/V-wing
Gunship - focused on heavy weaponry, removes few AI fighters from battle when deployed. TIE Defender and B-Wing
Hal Nordmann Jedi interceptor just for a nor,al pilot
The B-wing and defender are in now. And my heart exploded with joy
The ARC-170 reminds me of the P-61 Black Widow, largest plane purpose built with the "P" (Pursuit) designation in WWII and as a night fighter. Size of a medium bomber, ie. the B-25 Mitchell and B-26 Marauder, with a pilot, gunner, and radar operator.
I would really like to see the TIE Phantom, it's design and capabilities are my favorite over most other spaceships.
Well, as we are now the B-Wing & Tie Defender are in the game. I agree with the rest of the list, except for the ARC-170. What I would like to see in the game is both the Jedi Starfighters, the Delta-7 and the Eta-2. Especially the Delta-7. I mainly fly the A-Wing in Squadrons. And of course...Naboo N1...what an absolute beauty!
There's a model of the Tie Advance in the first story mode mission. I feel it'll be easy to put it in multiplayer. B-Wing can join that as the "elite" category which is paid through with points. I REALLY want the defender to be in the game as in my opinion it is the best star fighter in cannon but at this point there wouldn't be too many if any left.
Don't forget the Defender's brother and cousin, respectively the TIE Avenger and Xg-1 Star Wing Assault Gunboat.
The Defender is a slight upgrade, or possibly just a sidegrade to these two. In the Avenger's case, due to its significantly smaller profile, slightly better agility, and ever so slightly lower price, and for the Assault Gunboat due to lower price, much higher armor than any TIE, lower agility, and loadout versatility. The TIE Hunter would also fit in with this crowd, though compared even the Defender it was exceptionally rare due to being a Spec Ops support weapon.
Always happy to see the arc 170 get some love.
I think it would be a really good idea to introduce two seater or more starship like the arc170 or even allow players to control gunner positions on corvets / capital ships similar to how battlefield one did with the airship and battleship.
Considering the fact that Star Wars Squadrons is an homage to the X-Wing vs Tie Fighter series of games from the 90’s, I would love to see the Tie Advanced Avenger, the Cygnus Assault Gunboat and maybe some other signature craft like the Imperial Shuttle, the Snowspeeder, the Outrider, the B-Wing, The V-Wing and the Tie/D automated fighter
Missile Gunboat from the Tie Fighter game would be great, too!
I would like to see the star viper, Mandalorian fang fighter, and the skipper
blast boat
The TIE Brute would be cool, with the big cannons and beefy armor to make up for not having shields. It’s not as strong as a bomber vs capital ships, and though it is as slow as a bomber, it’s lasers would be brutal vs rebel fighters
Amen to the arc-170 I would add to the list the clone wars era v-wing as well those two are my favorite ships of the entire show
Wish they had a ‘free-for-all’ mode that would allow you to choose whatever craft you want so they have an excuse to add a bunch of random ships as DLC.
The Tie Advanced v1 that Lindon Javes flies in the prologue would be fun. Or to have the option for your Y-Wing to be a BTL-B from the Clone Wars.
Obviously an LAAT, in place of a U-Wing. Or Eta-2 in place of an A-Wing. Sod it, the Otana would be awesome, if wildly unrealistic.
I just want to play as the Missile Boat again.
There's 1 starfighter u missed on campaign, at prologue main protagonist fly as standard TIE Fighter and flight lead has special starfighter(hints: wings folded during landing, no shield and equiped hyperdrive engine) but its not playable
B-Wing, E-Wing, K-Wing, Z-95 Head Hunter, Tie Advanced, Tie Defender, XG-1 Star Wing, Imperial Missileboat, Tie Phantom. Ground battles where we have the option to use T-47 airspeeders and Tie Strikers
My favorite part of playing Rogue Squadron on N64 was the Falcon and the N1 Naboo starfighter. Fun as hell to play. Make it so!
Am a Bwing fan. Its not very maneuverable, but whatever it’s pointed at is gonna go boom.
Some ships I see people forget about is the v wing and the tie Hunter die Hunter was one of my favorite ships in rogue squadron
The arc-170 is a P-61 black widow in a sense, just because it’s heavier and slower to maneuver doesn’t make it any less fun to fly.
Tie Advanced would fit very well with current ships. It could run at the same speed or slower than a Tie Fighter with a weaker hull but shields
I love the idea of the Tie Defender too
Another good Tie would be the Ties from Force Awakens - Use the special forces tie and replace the missiles with an Ion cannon mounted underneath the cockpit
B-Wings are pretty awesome but I think with the Y-Wing it would be so much of the same as far as weapons platform and role. The B-wing is a heavy bomber similar to the Y-Wing
The Z95-Headhunter could be a good ship to add as a lighter faster fighter over the X-wing but limited punch compared to the X-wing
E-Wing could be a good fit a fighter that is different in design but a bit more robust over the A-Wing in punch and survival
In Squadrons I'm trying to figure out how to rotate the B-wing's body and when I'm given the option to choose a different TIE to use for 1 mission of available I use the Interceptor because it's fast and I really like the claw shape
You cant have a starwars dogfighter without the snowspeeder from hoth
