Today, on Twitter, Electronic Arts continues to reveal more and more pieces of the Star Wars Battlefront Stormtrooper leading up to “break the internet” gameplay reveal at Star Wars celebration. 

[Update: DICE has confirmed to GamerCenterOnline that these Stormtrooper images are indeed from “in-game assets.”]

In addition, NeoGAF user yohan12, who signed a non-disclosure agreement with Electronic Arts, revealed that Star Wars Battlefront will feature both first-person and third-person perspectives, with third-person being the default.

Not generally into multiplayer, but this game will be the exception. Gameplay shown off behind closed doors apparently got a standing ovation, so can't wait to see the trailer.



Such good news...



Good, i strongly prefer third-person over first-person



I wonder if that's a episode 7 stormtrooper. Oh and I'm glad about the 3rd person, the closer it is to the original battlefront's the better.

Wasnt the other Battlefronts... you know... 3rd person anyways....?

Third person default? Wonderful news. I will leave my scepticism behind for a while...

They were. But this was said to be first person only before.


OH, I see. Well I prefer it to be 3rd person as it makes operating vehicles much easier.

Honestly it didn't bother me when they announced it was first person, I've played BFII in both 1st and 3rd person and I found 1st to be more accurate for me and 3rd suited me for when I was playing the jet, shock troopers along with playing Jedi and using vehicles.

I kind of always thought they'd include both 1st and 3rd person views, would be kind of silly not to.



Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.
