5. More Classes
The new trailer gave us a brief glimpse at some of the classes that will be in the new reboot, though just how many there will be is still unknown. An Alien that very much resembles Lando's co-pilot in Return of the Jedi (Nien Numb) seems to be the engineer class for the rebels - equipped with a jetpack and rocket launcher for quick maneuverability when taking down imperial armour. Battlefront fans will remember that the anti-tank equipment belonged to the Vanguard class in the first two titles, and that jetpacks and jump-packs were limited to the special classes of the Republic and Empire, so it's interesting to now see the engineer rocking a greater variety of gadgetry than before. Considering the staple of the Battlefield franchises class system has relied on an almost 'Rock, paper scissors' mechanic with a set of assault, support, engineer and marksman classes, it'll be interesting to see whether or not DICE can accommodate Battlefront's old class system (which was more varied), or merely offer a reskin of a model theyre much more used to in order to assure balanced gameplay. Either way, Wookie Warriors are a must.
