So no kit customization? Or can that be done anyway?

Customization yea, possibly.  You just cant lock and unlock weapons goin off points. It would be much like everyone has unlocked all weapons right from the off. Yet to be confirmed tho.

So you can have unlockable ships. Maybe make the spawn point behind several destructible walls. By unlockale, I guess that I really want cameo vehicles. I am thinking more of the Rogue Squadron III series of levels in which you battle droids and fly Republic ships.

Thats fine. It was having no unlocks I was worried about.

But basically it's still got a floaty movement engine, cartoony gameplay, and an odd graphics filter that is the equivilant of playing with a stocking over your head, no?

No, they graphics are better, the movement is different (but still similiar), and the gameplay is not cartoony. I didn't like SWBF's imbalances, but you shouldn't complain about the quality of a game that you have not played.

I wouldn't know the difference between BF2 and BF2:SF ecause I don't own any of the expansion/booster packs.

Please point out some huge gameplay differences?

Distinguishable squadron markings for unlocked ships would kick pie actually.  To be a Rebel fighter pilot and see a TIE with 181st-style marking would surely strike fear into you and you know you're after a superior pilot.

Now that would be freakn awsome!

The unlockable ships is still a good idea though.  I'd be interested to see unlockable ships based on pilot stats, though.  For instance if you're very accurate or have a great kill/death ratio with the TIE Bomber, you eventually earn a TIE Bomber with upgraded shielding, maybe some more armorment, and distinctive squadron markings.

I smell SWBF 2.

Meh, giving the skilled player something to flaunt in-game is hardly a bad thing.  As for SWBF2 I haven't played it, but the first one was crap.

The only thing I wish the mod team would take away from the SWBF series is the lovely special effects.  Those explosions were really well done.
