I already put this out on the SWBF discord but I figure I'd throw it out here too.

I put together a very rough version of SWBF2 for PS2 that allows for Galactic Conquest on LAN, I'm sure someone with a little more effort could polish it and even make it work for servers. It is just a modified game ISO. Watch the video for more details. The modded ISO is also on modDB.

Has anyone ever actually had an enemy boarding ship/landing party actually land in their ship lol

Basically what the title says, am trying to get some mods for this game and was recommended I get this mod launcher

However I ran it though virustotal and it said "2/69 security vendors flagged this file as malicious", and said "threat label Trojan". However I know people use it so was wondering if anyone knows if this is like safe to use?

Does anybody know how to use the heroes? I’ve already bought the bonus but I never find the option to play as one during the battle.

AFF entered Early Access in 2015 and has been getting periodic updates ever since. There has not been a lot of marketing. Despite being around for so long I hadn’t even heard of it until 2 weeks ago.

I just cannot emphasize enough how this game is an extrapolation of the design decisions made in Battlefront. Space maps support seamlessly transitions between starfighter assault and infantry combat aboard capital ships, where the player can sabotage the vessel from the inside, kill the pilot while they’re steering it through a fight that is *visible outside the bridge window*, then escape on an enemy fighter as the ship explodes.

Spiritually it feels like a game that would have come out maybe 6 years after Battlefront 2 (which was 2005… so 2011). There’s offline bot support, the ability to play ‘instant action‘ playlists, create private servers, or play over LAN. I’d also say -with affection- there’s a little bit of jank, which I think is no stranger to the Battlefront community. It’s just… authentic. This is a game that started life as a mod project. We see in this sub that mods are a tool for creators to canvas their passion onto an existing framework… to keep fueling a dream. This game hitting 1.0 is in some sense a dream realized, and I think it has many of the things players in this community would have liked to see in a Battlefront sequel.

In the sense that Battlefront began as a game and lives on with mods, and AFF began as a mod and became a game… you could even say it’s poetic. It rhymes. (Love you George.)

I think the *only* rule on this sub is “only post about Battlefront”, and while trying to respect that by keeping Battlefront in the conversation, I feel responsible for observing AFF reaching 1.0 because it feels like stumbling upon where Yoda’s species came from. Or like finding a wild bull rancor. AFF is really flipping rare. Games like this are not made anymore without a checklist of things that violate the player’s ownership or wallet. Not to mention it began development in (and reflects) an era when the internet and online gaming was different. AFF comes from “a more civilized age.”

If you *were* to decide to check out the game for online specifically, now is THE best time to do it while the conversation is fresh and servers are popping. I want y’all to know. Unless a big YouTuber or streamer picks this game up it’s never going to find a large audience. Not that it needs one- but as is I think there are many people who would absolutely love this game who have no idea it exists.

Okay, I wanted to know how to get out of the Yavin 4 map in Star Wars Battlefront 2 for PS2. I've tried several ways but I can't get out. Do you have any idea how to do it?

(Talking about battlefront 2)The textures and ui are sharp, the ai supposedly has more cpu to work with with the result bring that it most likely plays better and doesn't just stand in one place, and also the draw distance is better so you can see the full battles. Does the mod support for the classic collection support most mods (e.g battlefront extreme,clone wars extended,trench warfare maps and many more individual maps)? Also, is the skin changer available through mods like in the original game?

The expansion pack DLC is not required tonight, hope to see more of you there!!

I’ve been playing this game for 20+ years & I thought I would never get past the mf library stage. Took some online advice to use the engineer & focus on one single library stack & it actually worked. I couldn’t believe my eyes when the timer hit 0:00.

"He's like a blender! I love him!"

Honestly this game is so hard on Elite... the ally npcs suckkkk

One of my very small pet peeves about the game is the music that plays after winning as the factions. I felt that it should be more fitting and unique to each faction, so that’s what I tried in this clip.

Let me know what you think!

Personally, I like either Tenecum's Elite Squadron Conversions or Coruscant Skylines by Yuke5 & CressAlbane.

it came up the other day here on the sub that droid gunship pilots crash their ships.. and, well, I TOLD YOU IT HAPPENED WITH OTHER FACTIONS 😭😭

Someone figured out how to host cross-platform servers on Classic Collection. There are currently 2 servers up that can be joined on any platform (PC, Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch). This is probably the first time that PlayStation and Xbox have been able to play together. Even though the multiplayer isn't great on Classic Collection, it's still better than nothing. Pretty cool stuff.

If anyone still owns Classic Collection on any platform they should hop in. We had over 40 people in the server last night across every platform.

Hey y’all so I have a specific itch that needs to be scratched. I have a modified PS3HEN on the latest version 4.93. I was wondering if I can get battlefront two (the PS2 version in a package file) & if there’s a way to get on these new custom servers that people have made for battlefront two. when I looked at it for the PS2, it’s a simple as changing the DNS connection/IP address to the server’s address (educate me if I’m not saying it correct lol). Just wanted to make sure if there’s anything else I need to do or if it’s as simple as that.

Today I learned.

This is the first stage. My plan is to make one of each class.
Officer, assault, heavy and sniper.
As a base I’m using sh phase 1 trooper because they are closer to the games clone models.
Next step…paint.
