MAYBE..

I found the LinkedIN page of a former Slant 6 employee (it says he left about 3 months ago). Interestingly in his work experience, he said he worked on Socom Confrontation as well as a 'new engine for unannounced title'. That unannounced title could be Socom Fire Team Bravo 3 for PSP which just came out, but it also could be POSSIBLY SWBFOnline.

Anyways, now to the real topic. On the LinkedIN page I found a link to his website, http://www.google.com/profiles/erikcharlebois . And there is a gallery of 9 pictures, and one of them showed a model of R2D2 and the other showed a TIE fighter. Heres the images:

(you can download the full res images from his website)

Obviously its not labeled as being from any sort of Star Wars game, but seeing SOMETHING Star Wars related from a Slant 6 employee (or exemployee) after hearing the rumor of SWBFOnline back in January is good news..

Nice man. It lives, or atleast I think it does. The sketchup R2-D2 was pretty sweet, but who knows it he was just fooling around or was actually working on the game\

Thanks man
you rock

Very nice! Thanks for sharing, that will make a great post and maybe breathe some life back into BF3.

Hopefully.

I emailed him and asked him about them, here's what he had to say:

Sorry, but those screenshots are just assets I pulled off of Google's 3D Warehouse for a toy renderer to teach myself a few things. I'd appreciate you taking down the story to avoid any confusion.

Worth a try though, keep up the good work Wenis.
