Careful, don't let the console boys see too much PC footage.
EA is so generous, showing us a whooping 30 seconds of PC gameplay.

Pre-order cost in Canada is $80 for the basic and $90 for the "Deluxe" edition that only have two emotes as exclusives. I know our dollar has dropped compared to USD but it still feels like a ripoff. I think I'll stick with my no pre-order pledge and wait for a PC price drop and/or reviews. Too bad too, that Hoth demo from E3 pushed all my right buttons.

Kinda feel like pre order offers are a rip off. Personally I prefer waiting longer and buy two games for the price of one 
Aside from that, am I the only one feeling distressed that all characters seem to be wearing a jetpack?

EA always does this.
GMG usually have deals on EA games prior to release, or just wait for a deal from Origin after the game is out.

GMG is the only place I see Battlefield on sale. I think they had 15-20% off Hardline on release.
total rip off of tribes with the jump packs...makes it feel like not Star Wars to me
Eh, jetpacks on Stormtroopers is not new. In fact they took it straight from other extended universe stuff (IE, the Imperial Jump/Skytrooper). Its just a trooper with the type of jetpack-derived tech similar to Boba Fett's.
Anyways still not pre-ordering this - I've learned my lesson before with EA. I imagine it might 'ok' 2 years down the line when it is 'fully' released/patched and for cheap... IRL pals have stated they won't buy it right away.

That's cute and all, but I am not buying this until all 72 DLC's and 3 season passes and bugfixes for 51 game breaking issues are released and included in the purchase
Yeah, BF4 is now great.. 2 fucking years after release remember that when you see a MP shooter from Dice (and when you like BF4, always look at Hardline to see how badly EA can fuck up a winning formula)

I wish SWTOR looked like that.

Actually, I rewatched the multiplayer Hoth footage just now, and most of the characters didn't start with the jetpack, so it must be either a powerup or a class-based device. Personally, I think the jet packs and sheild generators are pretty cool and add tactical options to the gameplay, as well as being extentions of tech found elsewhere in the movies. That being said, there will probably be a way to set up a game without them so you can engage in more "classic" battles.
RIP RedEye9. We miss you.

It's really stunning, how it looks so good. And the sound production is pretty amazing too.

Indeed.
Any word yet on AI bots for coop or mp modes? I know they showed the defend mode against waves of attackers but nothing yet on if I can add bots to the other various matches.
Look at how much xbox360 and ps3 consoles have been holding everything back visually for years now. The idea of parity design with consoles will suck yet again with the latest versions being so under powered.

I think people are going to be disappointed when they find out there are no bots for the main game modes, only for the co-op "missions" like what is shown here and they've already talked down the challenge they'll provide by calling them the equivalent to "extras on a movie set".

A) You shouldn't be supporting these cockbags anyway.
B) If you're going to anyway, stick to G2A, Kinguin, etc. Fuck those pricks and their regional pricing. Two can play at that game.
Ok guys,
Please don't pre-order anything without a very proven track record.
Ever..
Like ever.
This is what's killing gaming. Shit games that make a buck because of the word "Star Wars" in it.
Anyways, I haven't seen enough to call this game shit but please hold your wallets till the reviews. I'm hoping this game is actually really fun.

I'm not going to preorder, or even buy this within 3 months of launch, but at this point, you pretty much know what you're getting with a Dice BF game. If people find that acceptable, who am I to judge?
