From a couple of days on the beta, it seems this is quickly becoming how people deal with hero characters.
#211 to #12 - anon (10/13/2015) [-]
i don't know, a headshot from the dish turret while their occupied is pretty effective
#59 to #12 - NinjaxPandaa (10/12/2015) [-]
Not in the beta, is that something they will address? I mean the Hero chars seem pretty OP but getting Al Qaeda'd every time you step out into the snow with your freshly polished stylin' as **** boots before you can even force choke a bitch would get pretty old fast
#60 to #59 - lozarus ONLINE (10/12/2015) [-]
You can jump out of the way if you are alert. The heroes make really big jumps and have a "dash" to move fast.

I dont think they are going to make them inmune to snackbar tactics.
#63 to #60 - NinjaxPandaa (10/12/2015) [-]
Ah, I didn't know about the dashes. Is force push/pull a thing? Could they use that on thew wanna-be jihadists?
#65 to #63 - lozarus ONLINE (10/12/2015) [-]
Anakin has a force push, but I dont know if its gonna work on an X-wing, best to just dash away.

Luke*
#76 to #73 - lozarus ONLINE (10/12/2015) [-]
You know, I make the same mistake all the time.
User avatar #77 to #76 - sirgawain ONLINE (10/12/2015) [-]
Oh yeah, lots of people do.

It's becoming increasingly evident that the game isn't true to the films, or the film rebels were all a bunch of idiots.
#195 to #5 - anon (10/13/2015) [-]
the games had balance in mind. So you know, the rebels wouldn't rage quite every ******* match ever.
User avatar #201 to #195 - suchlol (10/13/2015) [-]
At the end is the game the one who brings balance to the Force.

Disney owns Starwars now, So now they HAVE to have the good guys Completely be better than the Empire, never mind that the storm troopers were actually Super Trained Troops, and the rebels mostly not. And if you were ever hoping for an Empire Based Game, Well Good Luck with that.
#154 to #69 - pkashp (10/13/2015) [-]
Uh, Battlefront 2? The campaign for that was 100% Vader's 501st kicking ass and taking names, and literally (not figuratively) NOTHING else.

We might not get something like that again, but don't say it never happened.
User avatar #161 to #154 - fornowjr (10/13/2015) [-]
Vader's Fist. From the sands of Geonosis to the scums of Yavin 4.
Fantastic memories.
#217 to #154 - anon (10/26/2015) [-]
That was made BEFORE Disney bought the rights to the franchise. Now that they own it, and EA has a sole right to make games based on the franchise...
User avatar #177 to #69 - nexuslament ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
The original clones were all super trained troops,by the time the empire was where it was when luke was the main hero almost all of the original clones had died or were super old.

The reason the stormtroopers are infamous for not hitting anything is because the majority of the empires forces were conscripts and mercenaries,and some of them didnt want to hurt anyone it was just a job.
User avatar #163 to #69 - catpisseverdeen (10/13/2015) [-]
But...the Empire's troops at the time were ****** conscripts. Not the badass Clones that we all know and love. If anything the Rebels and Troopers have the same skill level.
User avatar #180 to #163 - redditsucks (10/13/2015) [-]
You're exactly right, no idea why you're getting thumbed down

It's not like Vader was ever strollin' around out in the open on Hoth
He just showed up in the Rebel base to kick some butt
#48 to #5 - lozarus ONLINE (10/12/2015) [-]
Well, the film rebels were a bunch of idiots.
But even so, vader and luke are never killed in the game, since they just sort of give up and dissapear
User avatar #114 to #5 - EdwardNigma (10/13/2015) [-]
I Kamikaze'd the **** out of other pilots. I ride eternal, shiny and chrome.

Seriously though I make way too many references to that movie. Its becoming a problem.
Please help.

DEVIN TOWNSEND PROJECT - Juular (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

I thought that clip was from this for a minute
#26 to #5 - comradewinter ONLINE (10/12/2015) [-]
Sacrificing your own life in order to kill the arguably most legendary soldier in the entire Universe is pretty rad, though.
#33 to #26 - mustachebro ONLINE (10/12/2015) [-]
We even forgot about this piece of gem.

RIP in piece Arvel Crynyd you glorious bastard.
#68 to #33 - rongdisk (10/12/2015) [-]
What a ******* hero
User avatar #91 to #33 - huntergriff ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
I should do a comp on him.
#174 to #33 - themarineelite (10/13/2015) [-]
******* brought down the Executor Class Dreadnought. He an hero'd the right way.
#34 to #26 - comicironic ONLINE (10/12/2015) [-]
Oh sure, it's rad as hell.
But the fact that nobody tried it means that the Rebel Alliance in the films was made up of mouthbreathers.
#35 to #34 - anon (10/12/2015) [-]
Force Push.

Also, did they ever even get a chance?
#49 to #34 - comradewinter ONLINE (10/12/2015) [-]
Darth Vader wasn't exactly vulnerable to it. And if they'd tried, he would've just jumped out of the way. Sith and Jedi have super reflexes, so no Battlefront games do that justice in order to not make them OP.
#70 to #49 - comicironic ONLINE (10/12/2015) [-]
Which is why the other option is that the game isn't true to the films.
#116 to #49 - shiphotel ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
they could have made other characters besides the two most powerful jedi's in star wars though.
User avatar #126 to #116 - heartlessrobot ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
Starkiller isn't even playable in Battlefront.
If he were, whoever got him would win the match.
#51 - saxong (10/12/2015) [-]
I can just hear the pilot gently speaking into his comms now: "It's over, Anakin. I have the high ground."
#38 - nanglo (10/12/2015) [-]
When Japanese play Battlefront
#41 to #38 - anon (10/12/2015) [-]
Funny, but I think the *********** are the only ones doing that **** these days.
#191 to #41 - urapooper (10/13/2015) [-]
Luke probably taught the pilots how they do it in Tatooine
#8 - cisdroidcommander (10/12/2015) [-]
That wouldnt stop Vader
#9 to #8 - anon (10/12/2015) [-]
Yeah, it would.

He's not impervious to kinetic energy weapons/high velocity projectiles.
User avatar #19 to #9 - darthblam (10/12/2015) [-]
You underestimate the power of the Dark Side.
#11 to #9 - xxsikoticxx (10/12/2015) [-]
In force unleashed the main dude stopped a star destroyer. Vader could probably handle adding a slight amount of force required to make that thing miss.
User avatar #47 to #11 - novus (10/12/2015) [-]
Force Unleashed is so ridiculously non-canon when it comes to Force powers... Remember in New Hope when Obi Wan and Vader fought? It was like watching two old men ballet dance. Even the more powerful battles like Luke vs Vader in V and VI were just simple lightsaber battles. No electricity exploding everywhere, no entire pieces of the room whirling around like a hurricane. And before you say "He wasn't trying to kill Luke," granted, but the one time we do see objects used offensively, Vader has to stop to meditate and focus to send the (small) objects flying.

Force Unleashed was a fun game, but it is not an accurate representation of the Force in their universe at all.
#93 to #47 - xxsikoticxx (10/13/2015) [-]
In the second i think? movie, didnt yoda and dooku have a fight that at some point turned into a "throw big metal objects at each other" kinda thing? you dont need to completely stop the fighter from moving, just add a slight amount of force in any axis and it will hit a few meters off.

I am also assuming that the 3 prequals, while pretty bad movies, are canon
User avatar #206 to #93 - cisdroidcommander (10/13/2015) [-]
forgot to add why i wrote this. When they were throwing objects they both were shown to be concentrating, so im assuming that you need to stand still and concentrate to succeed.
User avatar #205 to #93 - cisdroidcommander (10/13/2015) [-]
The fight starts with dooku throwing metal objects at yoda and he escapes by making a big metal pillar almost crush anakin and obi wan. i love all 6 movies equally because every movie has its flaws
User avatar #113 to #47 - drldrl (10/13/2015) [-]
I'm pretty sure that's just because of the limitation they had when they made the original movies. You can see that with the fact that Lucas went back to add more as the technology came out.
Outside of the movies, Vader was a monstrosity. He used the force incredibly effectively in tandem with his cybernetics to make himself a killing machine. He could use the force to crush someone's organs. He used precise bursts of Force Speed on specific body parts to make his moves too fast to see.
User avatar #150 to #113 - novus (10/13/2015) [-]
I know people may have differing opinions on this, but for me there is no Vader "outside of the movies." A lot of the expanded universe plots were completely nullified by the prequels, anyway.
User avatar #152 to #150 - drldrl (10/13/2015) [-]
I know a lot of it sucked, but a lot of it was also good.
User avatar #179 to #47 - nexuslament ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
Vader was an old man at that point,and he was powerful enough to use force lightning but do to his robotic arm and suit needed to live it would hurt him to use it. Forcing him to rely solely on his lightsaber skills.
User avatar #212 to #179 - novus (10/13/2015) [-]
The events of Force Unleashed 2 took place 1 year before the battle of Yavin according to Wookieepedia, and in it Vader is an unstoppable monster of a man. So unless you want to take the argument that he (and the Emperor) suffered catastrophic Force-altering injuries at the hands of Starkiller, Vader aged one hell of a lot in one year.
#148 to #47 - malusdark (10/13/2015) [-]
Recommend reading the New Sith lords book (New canon) has Vader doing some crazy **** in his ship and using the force like a badass, so maybe the Force Unleashed wasn't so crazy but I do agree with some of the Ridiculousness in it.
User avatar #108 to #47 - civilizedwasteland (10/13/2015) [-]
maybe their force powers so overwhelming that they could hardly move
User avatar #106 to #11 - juter (10/13/2015) [-]
Starkiller was a brutally overpowered noncanon villain turned hero.
#218 to #11 - anon (10/26/2015) [-]
He'd have to know he's being targeted ahead of time though, and in the heat of battle it's really easy to miss a spot check, particularly if a sniper has you in his sights from a distance.
User avatar #16 to #9 - drldrl (10/12/2015) [-]
You doubt the Dark Side.
If you're angry enough, you can survive anything with the Dark Side. Ask Darth Sion. He was "killed" plenty of times. His body was decaying. But all his anger and agony channeled through the Dark Side made him immortal.
User avatar #25 to #16 - magicka (10/12/2015) [-]
Sion went a bit crazy because of all the pain and anger so it's not a good way to become immortal.
User avatar #30 to #25 - Encarna (10/12/2015) [-]
Vader went a bit crazy because of all the pain and anger and ended up killing his wife. (If you count Revenge of the Sith as a film, I'm not one to judge).

If you also count Force Unleashed as ghostninjaguy stated, the thing Vader hates more than anything else, is himself, therefore he has an unlimited supply of that hatred running around.
#202 to #30 - anon (10/13/2015) [-]
If you don't count ROTS as a film... I missed the part where you died and came back as a film critic
User avatar #215 to #202 - Encarna (10/15/2015) [-]
See above.
User avatar #204 to #30 - cisdroidcommander (10/13/2015) [-]
why wouldnt we count Rots as a film? Please explain
User avatar #214 to #204 - Encarna (10/15/2015) [-]
As a very late reply because I don't frequent here enough. I personally do, but I've seen many who don't.
User avatar #216 to #214 - cisdroidcommander (10/15/2015) [-]
Thanks for the reply. Was confused for a moment.
#39 to #16 - anon (10/12/2015) [-]
Just nuke the guy then.

100 megatons say hi, darth vader says goodbye xD.
#219 to #39 - anon (10/26/2015) [-]
Theoretically he could survive so long as his suit isn't compromised, and even if it is he can use the force to keep himself alive with a non-functioning life support system for iirc up to a day.
User avatar #42 to #16 - ryderjbudde (10/12/2015) [-]
Yeah, and then they reworked him, and now he's 100 times better than he was.

100x0 still equals 0, though.
User avatar #23 to #16 - ghostninjaguy ONLINE (10/12/2015) [-]
Come on, he impaled himself killing Darth Maul and survived against Boba Fett. TWICE!!!!
User avatar #21 to #16 - kibuza ONLINE (10/12/2015) [-]
Yea well we can't really have immortal force choking, lightsaber throwing dudes in a game can we?
User avatar #22 to #21 - drldrl (10/12/2015) [-]
I wasn't really referring to him in game.
User avatar #10 to #9 - cisdroidcommander (10/12/2015) [-]
Nah,vader would still survive
#89 to #9 - huntergriff ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
The man brought down a ******* building on himself and survived. I'm pretty sure he can live through an A-wing crash.
User avatar #40 to #9 - admiralen (10/12/2015) [-]
real vader would by the force see it coming and dodge
thats pretty much the reason why jedis and sith are so overpowered, they can sense danger like with the spider sense
#44 to #40 - lozarus ONLINE (10/12/2015) [-]
Its a shame the rebels never got around to using nuclear weapons.
Vader wont survive inside a sun after all.
User avatar #62 to #44 - admiralen (10/12/2015) [-]
That would kill their own, and for such an idealistic existense as the rebels the chances of doing that is very low
I mean, thats something the empire would do after all
User avatar #80 to #62 - darthblam (10/12/2015) [-]
Not necessarily.
They totally destroyed the entire Deathstar.. twice.
Like, they didn't sabotage or incapacitate it, they outright blew it up and all the potentially hundreds of thousands of people on it, with a huge portion that probably wasn't even military. Y'know, engineers and maintenance workers and **** .
So, I don't think nukes would be particularly morally out of the question.
User avatar #81 to #80 - admiralen (10/12/2015) [-]
The entire thing was made for only one thing, genocide
so the people on the death star kinda are assholes and if they die all the better for it
But nuking your fellow rebels just to kill Vader goes against their idealism
User avatar #203 to #81 - cisdroidcommander (10/13/2015) [-]
Thank you. I dont understand what the rebels did wrong. Alot of people says they shouldnt destroy the death star because innocent people might be on the station. But if they didnt destroy the death star they would have died. So im not seeing the problem here.
User avatar #208 to #203 - admiralen (10/13/2015) [-]
"Innocent"
Building a ******* doomsday weapon made to destroy planets and also actually destroying one killing i dont know how many means youre kind off on the wrong side of innocent
I mean, they kill stormtroopers en masse, but they are just following orders
Cause i guess thats the only argument anyone would have for someone on the death star being a poor innocent person
User avatar #209 to #208 - cisdroidcommander (10/13/2015) [-]
um, i agree with you. I was talking about other people saying the rebels were wrong for destroying the station
User avatar #210 to #209 - admiralen (10/13/2015) [-]
yeah, i was just saying why its retarded to consider them innocent
at most the prisoners on the death star are the reason anyone would even consider the argument
#220 to #44 - anon (10/26/2015) [-]
Proton Torpedoes and Thermal Detonators are low-yield nukes made for the battlefield, so yeah, they do, and so does everybody else.
User avatar #90 to #44 - huntergriff ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
Nukes still exist. the mandos used them.
User avatar #121 to #90 - heartlessrobot ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
Well of course the Mandolorians use them.
If it's a weapon, the Mandolorians have perfected the use of it.
User avatar #43 to #9 - tenaciouslee ONLINE (10/12/2015) [-]
So a normal gun would kill Vader?

I ******* doubt that.
#165 to #43 - anon (10/13/2015) [-]
I expect since he can throw his saber easily, he can stop bullets with the force; >>#40
User avatar #167 to #165 - tenaciouslee ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
How would that work, though?

Even if that's true, he couldn't react fast enough, even though he's Darth ******* Vader.
#72 to #43 - ygdosst ONLINE (10/12/2015) [-]
Primitive Slugthrowers are impossible to completely deflect with a lightsaber. Molten steel slag coming off the saber will still get the Jedi.

However Slugthrowers are useless for everything but that, given standard armor would be able to stop the shots; thus they were phased out and the tech is incredibly rare that nobody things of it anymore.
You don't think of cranking up a Grammophone when your Ipod runs out of battery do you? Basically same situation here.

Vader also may be different given he's an armored Sith, and someone like Greivous could give less than negative ***** about Slugthrowers.
User avatar #82 to #72 - tenaciouslee ONLINE (10/12/2015) [-]
I still think it'd be cool that I could cover Vader in molten steel by shooting him with like, a revolver.
#119 to #82 - heartlessrobot ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
You'd be better off with a flechette gun.
#120 to #119 - tenaciouslee ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
But I can't do cool Ocelot stuff with a flechette gun.
User avatar #122 to #120 - heartlessrobot ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
You can if you git gud.
#123 to #122 - tenaciouslee ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
But there's no trigger guard so I can't twirl it around and be all cool and western-y.
User avatar #124 to #123 - heartlessrobot ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
You have any idea how easy it would be to weld a piece of steel onto a large object made out of steel?
#125 to #124 - tenaciouslee ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
Revolvers are cooler, tho.
#127 to #125 - heartlessrobot ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
He doesn't even use the coolest revolvers.
#130 to #127 - tenaciouslee ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
But he uses two Single Action Army revolvers, and the Single Action Army Revolver is the greatest handgun ever made.
#192 to #130 - crislaboy (10/13/2015) [-]
More than enough to kill anything that moves.
User avatar #133 to #130 - heartlessrobot ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
Smith and Wesson model 500.
A .50 caliber revolver.
More accurate, longer range, and a much bigger bullet.
Someone can shrug off a glancing shot from one of those.
A glancing shot from the 500 removes the limb it hits.
#137 to #133 - tenaciouslee ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
You're not picking up the reference?

For shame, cardiac-muscle-lacking droid, for shame.

Also, you can use a Single Action Army without breaking your ******* shoulder after the first shot.
User avatar #140 to #137 - heartlessrobot ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
Due to the weight of the gun and the rubber handles, there's very little recoil on the gun.
User avatar #147 to #140 - tenaciouslee ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
I'd much prefer a .45 Single Action Army than a .500 Smith and Wesson.
User avatar #173 to #9 - sphincterface ONLINE (10/13/2015) [-]
I think you don't understand just how much of a beating Vader is able to handle. The guy has survived a building collapse on him, being impaled through his gut, sucked into space, and has been on multiple Star Destroyers and Tie Fighters that have been completely obliterated with him in it. I think he can handle having an A-Wing crash into him.
User avatar #3 - psychadelicace (10/12/2015) [-]
Hell if i was in a x-wing and i saw Vader i would do the exact same thing, we all would

A New Hope could have been the best short movie ever if Rebels used this tactics
User avatar #14 to #3 - cleomech (10/12/2015) [-]
Of all the jedi and sith in the galaxy, I'm pretty sure that Vader would be able to stop a damned x-wing with his maxed out force power.
User avatar #31 to #14 - Encarna (10/12/2015) [-]
The most powerful Sith Lords could affect things called "Mass Shadows" which were essentially giant and extremely strong gravity wells, so much so one particular one from KoToR II called Darth Nihilus ripped out a Centurion class battlecruiser out of one with the Force.

In short, yes, Vader could stop an X-Wing flying at him quite easily. Though he would probably survive even if it hit him.
User avatar #75 to #31 - sirgawain ONLINE (10/12/2015) [-]
Nihilus and the True Sith are ******* monstrously overpowered compared to Vader, but yeah, Vader could probably use the force well enough to do that.
User avatar #84 to #75 - Encarna (10/12/2015) [-]
I was just giving an example of what the force could do. Vader is nowhere near as powerful as Nihilus but I do believe that he is more powerful than a lot of people give him credit for. Especially considering the movies didn't really do him justice in my opinion.
#15 - anon (10/12/2015) [-]

" *********** don't fly planes" I'm pretty sure the entire concept behind 9/11 was that they did.
