Star Wars Battlefront II: Rolling Mechanic

After playing Star Wars Battlefront II for a couple of hours now. There is something that is really getting on my nerves. And that thing being the enemy players spamming the roll bottom making it extremely hard to hit them.

I think that their should be a cool down system, making it so you can roll ever 3 seconds. Or like in Battlefield, with the sliding. Make the roll less effective if you spam it. Maybe this is just me, if you agree let me know.

Have a great day everyone.

    I think the rolling mechanic should be toned down a little bit but only subtly.

    Force using Jedi already have major major advantages over no force users.

    Force powers. Higher health. Improved jump. Improved movement speed. Ability to block force powers. Ability to block blaster fire. Higher damage output than most characters. Sweeping AoE on melee attacks. 

    If you over did it on nerfing the rolls you'd make force using heroes too strong and non-force using heroes useless. 

    Most of the force using characters in the game have abilities that are ranged and can hit an enemy at the end of his roll. With the exception of Rey who has insight so what else even matters.

    Most players aren't high enough skill level to really abuse the rolling mechanic and force users are agile enough where they can ambush players pretty easily.

    I don't think much of an adjustment is needed, just perhaps a slightly slower refresh on the roll cool down if you use two rolls in rapid succession.

    Also nerfing vanguard would go a long way in helping force users be effective in GA. 

  • There is already a cooldown. You can only roll twice in quick succession before you're prevented from doing so. You have to wait 2 seconds before you can roll again, and then wait an additional 2 seconds before you can roll after that, and will continue to remain as such until you've not rolled in a little while.
