@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. :SS

LA is not showing that they know what we want then.

As for Spartan's avatar, Anonymous is nothing more than some disgruntled teens and the odd real hacker who, when they act, they are just assumed to be anon by the media to shovel to uneducated viewers.

ANYWAY, go Battlefront III.

LucasArts, you dissapoint me :8(:

As for my Avatar, it's a mask that protesters wear to fight againt ACTA. I don't support it, infact I hate it, so I use the mask as my avatar.

Guy Fawkes' masks were the mask of choice of Anonymous during the Scientology strikes as well.

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."
(https://www.lucasfilm.apply2jobs.com/Pr ... rentPage=1)

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?

Well, since Battlefront 2 was a big multi-player hit, especially online, it could be a possibility.

Looks like more tweets.

Not really relevant, but Legion 2.5, what does your avatar say? The text is too small to read.

Church
Fear my
laser face

May not be %100 correct, but it's a reference to Red vs Blue, when Church was trapped in the monitor's AI.

I must say that I do really like Legion 2.5's new RVB picture.
