It should be better. GC did a horrible job on the ATAT. Wasn't it just a static until v.5? The walking part, well. It looked like it was moon walking! But you have to geive them credit. It's very hard to get that to work in the BF1942 engine.

That's the dumbest thing I've read in ages.  Considering the game engine, and the horrible ATST walking animations, they did an amazing job with the ATAT.  Having two fully crewed walkers lumbering towards Echo Base was amazing during games on Hoth.

But you have to give them credit. It's very hard to get that to work in the BF1942 engine.

^^ as in my above post

Ok, so the AT-ATs were ok in GC, but I found a lot of things missing. For example, isn't there a small bridge in the tube t that connected the body to the head? And also, it'd be great if you could actually go into the cockpit and see all of the controls instead of having them being blocked off like in GC.

What makes you think the ATAT model would be like GC's ?

Nothing we have made has had GC in mind when we made/make it. GC is not a reference point.... Star Wars is.

Exactly. I'm not trying to insult anyone's work here or anything like that, but I definitely cannot compare FS to any of the Battlefront series so GC is the closest thing to use. And I use GC because it's the only other time that I've seen AT-ATs in the Battlefield series and seeing as this is going to be a vast improvement over what was done in GC, I'm just listing points that would, in my opinion, help to make it better based on what wasn't accomplished in GC. sad

Re: AT-AT Body.

Whatever the reason , im just sick to death of hearing about GC...whether that be praising it or bashing it.

Wanting a cockpit in the ATAT has very little to do with GC imo.

Re: AT-AT Body.

GC is going to get filtered out of the forums sooner or later....

Re: AT-AT Body.

No-one minds bringing up GC on stuff that was part of GC  eg. jumping into droids , like they were vehicles.........    As that is a feature of GC.

Thats a viable suggestion or basis of a suggestion.
