If you’re just looking for the grand slam of what Battlefront 2’s mods offer, consider installing the Conversion Pack, its patch, and the unofficial 1.3 game update. GameSpy is no more, but external lobby programs such as GameRanger and GameMaster keep multiplayer breathing. If that’s not enough worthiness for your Steam library, it’s also stupidly cheap as of writing (until May 7) at $3/£2, so picking up the base game is an inexpensive first step. While EA thinks about that (”don’t hold your breath,” says my Force-powered 8 ball), 2005’s Battlefront 2 still hosts a small but fiercely dedicated community and a legion of intricate mods.

A smooth launch and low bug count wouldn’t hurt, but hey, we’re PC gamers-let’s toss modding support right on top of the pile. Ten years has been quite the wait.īeyond jetpacking Rebel rocket troopers and anti-aliased Endor tree bark lies a fleet of expectations. There's still months to go before DICE’s Frostbitten reboot of grand-scale Star Wars-fare hits monitors, but the (carefully choreographed) bits seen so far are exciting stirrings of trading hot laser, lightsaber, and explodey death in both familiar and new worlds. The command post is too easily taken over by DeathTroopers and if you do manage to clear the command post from them and start taking it back, chances are that you don’t have enough time left to recapture it.Battlefront is on the brain. Another draw back is the command post system.

For example, the lightsabers range isn’t that far at all, i found myself getting hit by the zombies or using the rocket launcher instead. My personal favourite class is the Mandalorian Leader, because of the small rocket launcher he uses and the dual lightsabers.Īs cool as this mod sounds there are some down sides. There are some really good classes introduced to this mod. I’ll get straight to the point with this post: I found a Star Wars Battlefront 2 Zombie mod! Thats right! A zombie mod! In this mod you play as a variety of different Mandalorians classes and fight away hordes of DeathTroopers (yes, like from the novel DeathTroopers) while defending a command post where you spawn. Ok so I recently fixed my SW Battlefront 2 game on Steam after getting a disc read error when trying to update and decided to look for some fun looking mods, and who doesn’t like new maps, game modes and campaigns!?
