I'm cool with this, the Ewok Hunt sounds fun for solo play and we were under no illusion that season 2 was due this soon. Hoping that it's a substantial update - from the sounds of it it should be!
No the time of day changes on some maps.Way back when this game released I pitched that Ewok idea.....DICE, I expect my royalties. Seriously though, it sounds like it could be pretty fun. Whats the Endor at Night though? Isnt Endor always at night?
"Night on Endor" is just the name of the new Update and the new mode is called "Ewok Hunt".Ive seen the other maps have different times of day and Ive seen "foggy night" Endor but I've never seen the daytime variation....but the question still stands, Endor at night isnt new so what are they talking about?

So some new Hero skins but Trooper skins are mostly the same limited choices as were hidden in the game since November...
'span multiple months'? Anything less than 3 new GA maps & 4 new heroes would be a massive disappointment then tbh
Let's judge when it's out. I was under the impression that they announce Season 2 today, but it seems like this is only a small update and the more meaty stuff is coming in May. If it has a similar amount of content like the first season I am okay. That means new planet for all modes like Crait and a new space map. Both with a slight spin on the already known gameplay. Also two new Space and Ground heroes and some vehicles/skins (like the Crait-Speeders and First Order AT-ATs/AT-STs). I mean conquest would be nice but I am not even THAT desperate for it. Didn't like it that much in BF1. What I really want to return is Cargo Hunt. That mode was so intense.
Eh DICE is fine and the game is also fine.

Basically because existing maps wouldn't fit a conquest mode. The design of actual maps is tailor made for GA. That means they would have to make new big maps, which is an argument against a conquest mode, since Dice seems pretty busy with other stuff for this game at the moment. In addition to that a proper conquest mode would require more players, such as a bump of at least 5 players per team. 50 players in total (at least).Is there a reason why people seem to be so convinced that conquest or a conquest type mode won't be added?

Imo the majority of maps would suit a conquest mode with some modifications. Don't know if Dice is able to increase playercount from 40 to 50 or even higher.
Some kind of a conquest mode without heroes would be great.
It depends. They certainly could. The question is if they are willing to do it. Let's hope the best.Couldn't they re-use maps from BF 2015? I mean I don't know if it's possible but I remember the Hoth map being pretty big (as in all sections of turning point etc).
They will never listen to the fucking community. Tons of skins and game modes were requested, they're added a stupid Ewok mode and Bandaged Chewbacca skin. Not cool, not fucking cool.
In short, I'm done with this game.
They already added Administrator's Palace to the game and that would be a perfect Conquest map.Couldn't they re-use maps from BF 2015? I mean I don't know if it's possible but I remember the Hoth map being pretty big (as in all sections of turning point etc).
Yeah that's such a shitshow.Thanks Overwatch. Seriously, was this ever a thing before Overwatch? Introducing new modes temporarily because....reasons?
Agreed. It's a good sign for the future. The game is doing fairly well generally afaik, considering how things started.This sounds great and I do appreciate the communication and changes from the team based on feedback.
I mean, it sold 9 million copies. It should have made them money and they can make more with the microtransactions and maybe gather something from the Solo-hype when it does well. It will be allright. So more content would be nice. They still support Battlefield 1, don't they?Agreed. It's a good sign for the future.

It's an amazing game with perfect Star Wars atmosphere.
Ended, the clone wars have.I'm just excited to diversify the rebel and resistance ranks so they don't feel so samey.
Didn't play or follow BF1 lately, but BF1 is a fairly big success so they will keep patching it of course.. contentwise i thought they were done one month ago. Haven't bought any content outside the basegame, it ended up to be pretty big with all the DLC added it seems. Love the game nontheless.I mean, it sold 9 million copies.

Can anyone tell for certain if the Ewok Hunt map is an entirely new map or just an old one? It looks new from the trailer. If it's new, I certainly wouldn't mind if they ported this map to some other game modes.
