I Have a Vision..

I believe this is exactly what we will see. A raid that is ground based, possibly final stage being a ship battle. But since we can't even get capital ships to 7* yet, the ships will only require 6*. I understand the argument about needing access to more ships first, but I think making it one stage in a single raid helps with this. Not as many ships would be needed compared with a multi stage ship battle.

Agree with that.. not much ships we have, capital ship still max at *6, some rare ship is so hard to farm them.. but the gameplay seems nice. :grimace:

I think we need a ship raid, but they should not restrict access based on how many stars the ship has. Many people (myself included) have not leveled their ships past 5*. It would be really lame if you need 6* and 7* ships to participate in the raid. If it is locked like that, most players will not be able to participate at all, since the vast majority of players do not have any 7* ships. Maybe it could be restricted based on the star count of the pilot?

I'm with u Bistan!!
I'm only max my ships at *5.. just for the zeta challenge. If the vision become reality, let's hope there is no such star requirement.. everybody can play!! No.. no.. no.. don't put star requirement on pilot. Have u heard the legend about first order tie fighter pilot? :bawling:

Talk about new mode.. We all know how ANH, ROTJ, and TFA end, yes? In order to attack something big there's always this ground away team to disable shield.

So my vision is:
- Send ground away team to disable base defend by troopers/droids/any armies (hope's not box crate).
- After ground mode complete, then new mode open: Air (space attack). It will attack something big like death star, or maybe starkiller base with fleet.

Kinda like new mode raid, yes?

Any thought? :smile:

+1 mmmh no... +10 :)

Just wait till they give Box Crate a zeta. Watch out for the Zox!

But I do like the idea combining ground troops and ships. Only after we get more ships though.

Zox is the new OP!! :lol:

There is talk/speculation/hint that (maybe) there will be PvE ship mode. Maybe form there will be new ships, or new location to farm ships (MAYBE). :joy:

Almost everyone in my shard has their ships at 7*. Unless your shard is newer than the ship release, I don't understand why anyone at this point wouldn't have at least 5 ships at 7*. I never did prioritize it either. In any effect, a 6* star raid would be useful and one of the rewards could be 7* capital ship shards. I definitely like the OPs idea; however, it's not necessarily a new one. There has been paragraph long threads on certain implementation of a Death Star/Endor space and ground mix raid/event. I believe one of the Devs even posted a gif on one, so the hope of something of this like is not too far fetched at all.

I like the idea of a multi tiered raid.

Phase 1... Scout Troopers and Storm Troopers on Endor
Phase 2... AT-ST on Endor
Phase 3... Endor shield Generator
Phase 4... Ship attack on Death Star

Or

Phase 1... Hoth Probe Droid
Phase 2... Wampa
Phase 3... General Veers and Snow Troopers Ground Assault with Cannon
Phase 4... Ship attack on AT-AT with introduction of Snow Speeder ship (or have Snow Speeder shards as reward)

These types of hybrid modes are terrible in Battlefront. (Battle station, infiltration) somehow I don't think they would be any less redundant here either. I'm not sure a story type mode is exactly a game changer. Some type of endless randomly generated mode would provide more replayability.
