Hey all, I was just playing on felucia when something pretty cool happened. I, as a stormtrooper had just picked up the flag and headed to the rebels side of the river. When I saw ten troopers join up with me. A mix of stormtroopers and scout troopers led by a single heavy trooper. They all joined me and I felt like I was part of a real squad fighting our way towards an objective. I decided to take the long way around just for that feel of true gameyness. So then anybody else ever get something like that?

I've never got that before, but I do think it's something built into the game. It's probably there so the guy with the flag isn't all alone and then gets ganged up on.

Yes Ping I know how it works and all that. I was talking about just how, starwarsy it felt.
In other words, has anyone ever had a cool moment.

If I annoyed you a bit, then please forgive me.
I've had a few cool moments in the game, such as this one time when, before I knew there were mods out for Battlefront, I was playing campaign on Felucia, when an Acklay came out of nowhere and was about to kill me, with no ammo. Then, a clone commander came out and killed it with his chaingun. So i guess I owe my computer one!

Wow... that
exact same thing happened to me once, I think it was the first time I beat that mission. Weird.
My brother was playing GC on Naboo once with the reinforcements bonus. He was down low on reinforcements when it kicked in. So, it was roughly 20 to 55. His get drained again and he is the only one left, against about 20. He finds a good spot on a balcony and shoots them as they come to him, and win.

Weirdest thing ever..
I was playing Mos Eisley CTF, and a Jawa got the flag!! So, both teams were formed up with it, trying to shoot each other, and Team Damage was off, so nobody could kill the darned Jawa! It finally ran over the score zone and ended the game.

The same thing has happened to me many times, although half of the times I used force push to make the jawa take my flag so the enemy couldn't score

I was playing GC Utapau, and all of my reinforcements were blown away. There were alot of AATs and other dangerous units, so I snuck through all the CPs and when I ran into an enemy it was like some kind of boss battle. They kept retaking my command posts, so I decided I would kill them all one by one (there were about 25 of them). Man...AATs make a good final boss

But when they respawn, they keep following you...
Anyway, I was on a spree on Utapau killing droids as a trooper, and just as I was about to capture that plaza command post, a sniper almost got me. Luckily I was swerving around the post like you're supposed to, so it missed, then I got the sneaky little...

I tried that, but the Jawas try to score when they get the flag. This wouldn't be a problem if they didn't get the flag so much, but it seems like everytime a flag is away from its home-base, a jawa is carrying it. I'm starting to think part of guru's spirit resides in my disk...

There was this one time on Utapow when I was a Cloen Jet-Trooper and I was getting close to the flag and all of the CIS snipers (both player and AI) spawned and I was jumping and jetting around with lasers firing in every direction. Then a Clone tank came up and started blasting everything to hell. It was AWESOME!!

I once dodged three thrown lightsabers by rolling sideways. It looked really awesome.
