Since my last thread about this got ruined I've decide to create a new one. The idea is to basically create some characters for the developers, so that they wouldn't have to work as hard if they decide to release these characters. Ideally this would include 5 characters to make an entire squad out of, however I can only come up with 4 that would be actual characters and not some fodder person. These 4 would include the obvious Galen Marek, and then the three other supporting characters; Juno Eclipse, Proxie, and Ram Kota. I would like people's ideas on what their moves could be and your reasoning behind why certain abilities do what they do in terms of SWGOH. To preface this I think that Galen, Juno, and Proxie should be classed as Empire and Rebel as they fought for both sides. Ram was always a Rebel, but he is a Jedi so that would lead to some synergy options between the Jedi and Rebel squads.

My first ideas were for the abilities of Galen and Proxie. For Galen if imagine him to have an AOE Shock like EP does but possibly instead of inflicting Stun, maybe Galen's would inflict Shock. It's a highly useful negative status effect while also be somewhat balanced. His basic would basically be the exact same as Ashoka's basic, giving huge health steal and moderate damage (4000 range?). My other idea was for Proxie's Unique ability. It would activate at the very start of the encounter and he would copy one of the opposing squads members. So if you go up against a person that runs Maul then Proxie could start as Maul. This would also include their abilities and attacks. This would save the animators a lot of time making this room becuase he literally would use another toons animations that is alread in the game. The next part of his unique would be that once you defeat Proxie in the copied state he revives with a Stun on him at around 25% of his max health. From that point on his attack would be similar to RGs basic and have a chance to inflict a negative status effect. Probably not stun but if that seems balanced then I'd be ok with a stun chance. For Juno and Ram I don't have a clue what they could do in terms of gameplay but I would love to hear what y'all think they could do.

I like the copy ability. Should it be random or first attacking opponent? If random I think it would be better to copy any opponent or ally giving more possibilities.

Most average star wars fans don't care at all about things from the EU that are uncanon, and also the rebels TV show. Most people don't want people they have never heard of be at the top of arena teams, and be important parts of the game. People want toons they like. With clone wars its different, because the show has been around and canon for a while, and most people are fine with more generic jedi and clones that are cool. I also even like parts of the EU, like republic commandos, but I don't want to see them in the game, because there is more important and popular stuff

Read everybook ever published. Was the only expansion of the this wonderful franchise before the prequels. I would much rather see eu specific characters than more generic characters, like gs or rebel commando etc, at the top.

I'm not saying that the EU is bad, it is just that most people really don't know about it at all. Disney is trying its best to get rid of it, so it would also be hard to put them in the game. While I agree that random generics shouldn't really dominate, but i do like the sort of "hidden gem" idea. The thing is that anything from the movies or some of clone wars will be mostly known, as opposed to EU characters

LOLz your last thread didnt get ruined. You just didnt like being told the exact same things you are being told here...Force Unleashed is no longer canon. Dont expect to ever see those characters in this game. Honestly it was a lame game and story anyways.

FYI It says right on the event graphic that Scarif is a Rogue One character (I didnt pay attention before). And yes it is canon whether it has been released yet or not. Just like ep8 and 9 and the stand alone films are and will be canon even though they have not yet been released.

Oh and to respond about Kyle Katarn...he is far more well known of a character than any original charcters in Force Unleashed. He has been in countless games, books and comics over the last 20 yrs. Sadly I dont expect to see him in this game as he is no longer canon.

I don't like non canon characters to be ingame with the exception of HK-47 because he is canon although he never made a real appearance. Something EA got lucky with when they created him I guess ;)

I don't think it should be the first attacking enemy becuase then it would always choose the same toons and rarely every become a tank. Also I'd say that I can't be an ally in order to avoid glitches. If you had two EPs for example you would basically always AOE Stun.

Kyle Catarn is fan fiction at best. He is only known because he was in a bunch of non canon pseudo Star Wars games and films. Now please stop ruaiming my threads with your off topic comments.
