Star Wars: Battlefront IGN Review

6.0 Presentation
There aren't enough modes and the singleplayer game is poorly strung together. Editing is also apparently not supported.

8.5 Graphics
Bump-mapping, slick lighting, and lot of activity make this a very impressive looking game. Vehicles are also enormous.

9.0 Sound
It's real hard to make a Star Wars game sound bad. If only the briefings were better.

7.0 Gameplay
On the PC, Battlefront's mouse control makes the vehicles far too powerful. It's also very simple compared to other games like it.

6.0 Lasting Appeal
It's all multiplayer, but there just aren't enough modes and mutators and maps to keep it going for very long. Given the competition, Battlefront PC won't last long at all.

7.5 OVERALL:
(out of 10 / not an average)

Our first marching band competition of the year... rained out.

Which means we will probably miss this particular competition for the second straight year, since it was rained out last year, too.

Interlude

Only a few hours later two dozen ships started form several spaceports on Coruscant, targeting the home worlds of the twenty five big empires, one of them was the Halut 1…
Again, as usual, Tolot was alone onboard of his 120m ship, unlike the other ships that were combat ships of the Republican fleet with the task to bring the ambassadors safely to the worlds of the big empires.
The Halut 1 moved faster then any of the other ships, that was nothing special, taking to credit that the Halutians have several centuries of technological lead, but this time it was different, the Spherical ship accelerated with more then 750 km per square second as he left Coruscants atmosphere and disappeared into Linear Space as he reached 50% light speed.
His first target was one of the “empty” sectors in the central Metaverse, before he’d move into the depth of the space of one of the most powerful empires of the Metaverse.
In the depth of the Jedi Council chambers, in one of the biggest rooms of the complex, on a man high table there laid a mysterious envelope, opened and a PDA. The display showed Tolots personal logo and a flashy ‘new Massage’ logo underneath it.
No one was around to see it, but the door was not shut.

What will happen to the Metaverse?
Where is Icho Tolot going?
What is the mysterious massage on his PDA?

Not to denigrate the good feelings a massage brings, I would like to know what the message is?

GEEEEE

Just started a new game, the AI is spreading like hell, hope I can resist their influence. But there was a good thing in the game, 2182 i got the UP issue about tech ballancing, got me 8 techs choise. so I got about 16 techs from four AIs, pretty good at that early stage...

Another 10k minus

What are you expecting with the following submission rate?:
- 1 submission on 07/01/04
- 1 submission on 07/03/04
- 1 submission on 07/08/04
- 1 submission on 07/14/04
- 1 submission on 07/31/04
- 1 submission on 08/27/04

Depending on the time you could have 1, 2, 3 or 4 games in the same block. Not good for stability.

But you manage to avoid an empty block

Ouch, I am really not looking forward to my score degradation cycle.

I am saying this and I don't really care very much about the points. One does get attached to them though (meaning me).

I am not sure to follow you: if my Excel spreadsheet is correct (it has some trouble with some people), on 7/31/04, your score was 905K and now it is 888K. I don't see a 100K lost.

                          
#3442  by Veteran Icho Tolot - 9/22/2004 11:15:49 AM

actually I was at 95something k before I had a month of not playing then I submited a game and droped to 84or so k, as I sobmited a game, now four gams after the break I'm at 888k (including the 10k i lost with my last game (was at 898k))
Hope I remember the numbers correctly

I am not losing points but I have times where I do not get much for my submitted score.

I have a couple of months that are sparsely populated so my score fluctuates but not that much. I have submitted scores where I did not get many points, that to me is painful.

Ok. Let's see what my spreadsheet says:
On 7/14/04: score 900K
on 7/31/04: score 906K
on 8/27/04: score 895K. The recalutated score on 8/26/04 would have been 872K
on 9/12/04: the recalculated score before any submission would have been 853K. on the first submission on the day the score was 876K and on the second submission 895K
on 9/22/04: Before the submission, if there was a recalc, the score would have been 872K. After the submission the score is 888K.

Sometimes I think the school board can be overly cautious. They cancelled all after school activities because the weather might get really bad. We were supposed to have an important staff meeting for NJROTC, but now that isn't happening.
