@hotsushiking1 Your question conveys that you believe that LucasArts does not know what their fanbase wants. Why would you assume that?
I think he knows very well that we as the fanbase have waited for this game and LucasArts ignores us.
On a side note who else is creeped out by Spartan's new picture.....errrr.

V for Vendetta is a good film if you're ready to go beyond your comfort zone and embrace your fear of Guy Fawkes masks.
Regarding LucasArts, the company recently put up a job listing for a Principal System Engineer. What's interesting in the Job Description (possibly hyperbole) is the mention of this:
"LucasArts is building a large scale online services and infrastructure to support a new way of connected online gaming that is going to
revolutionize the industry."

This is the first time I've heard Lucas Arts sound that confident about a new service for any of their upcoming games, and since it will pertain to online connectivity, it looks like the company wants to eventually make either multiplayer-specific games or a gaming social network. Looking at Crytek's GFACE, I think LucasArts have chosen the latter but focusing on connecting Star Wars gaming aficionados together.
Also, Kotaku points out that this online service is possibly being delivered for Microsoft and Sony consoles, so it could indeed be for future Star Wars games.

So...is it possible that Battlefront 3 will utilise this service to improve its multiplayer infrastructure somehow?
