Players won't need to meet a minimum level requirement to access Galactic Starfighter's ships and space battles. "When Blane and I sat down, we came up with some philosophies behind Galactic Starfighter - tenets, if you will - things that we thought were really, really super important to the game itself," he said. The ramping process is part of BioWare's overall goal, Backus explained, to make Galactic Starfighter accessible as possible. After that, the space battles will increase to the standard 12-versus-12 variety. To get players used to the expansion, their first 10 matches will take place in a 8-versus-8 scenario. They'll be in and flying shortly thereafter.
As soon as they start playing, they can hit Esc or H to enter the hanger or click an icon. All they'll need to do is download and install the game and then create an account and character. To that end, even new players will be able to enter dogfights quickly. One of BioWare's goals with Galactic Starfighter was to make the expansion accessible to all players, not just veterans. Players can earn rewards like mounts and paint jobs in a series of scenarios that can change with each playthrough. Kuat Drive Yards, a new "Tactical Flashpoint," will be available to players beginning at level 15. "It's a less agile ship, but it can take more punishment." Players will be able to customize the starship's look and feel with new engines, shields and weapons. "The Bomber's strength really lies in basically drones and mines," Backus said. Premium ships, which are variations on the standard ships, will also be available, allowing players a further level of customization.Ī new ship, the Bomber, will also arrive today. The scoreboard that appears at the end of battle will now have more detailed information. A new Battle Record implementation will tracks players' lifetime accrual of stats like kill/death ratio and hit/miss ratio. Pick them up, and players will receive boosts to damage, engine and shield boosts. For example, power-ups are now scattered throughout the maps. Today's Galactic Starfighter rollout will also bring a few more new features.
