It doesn't look too different from the original. What happened there?

It's not an April Fool's. Saw an extensive preview in the most recent PCG US. On the slate are netcode improvements, space battles (including boarding actions), the battle on the Tantive IV, Jedi, and lots of Revenge of the Sith battlegrounds.

Good. I was all up for Battlefront but it grew kinda stale quickly on PC. One thing that sucked was using the starfighters. That was my thing. I head up the Navy division in the Dark Guard. There was absolutely no room to fight in that damn thing. It was great flying but not much there to fly in.

That screenshot IS from normal Battlefront, check the LucasArts page.

There are no pictures from SWBF2, it's not done yet ;)

Okay, here's some better info for you guys.


From Computer Gaming magazine:
Added into BF 2 will be features such as a playable Jedi class, space battles (supposedly including capitol ships), 16 additional battles (apparently including the Tantive IV), moving the focus from Command Point capturing to objective based maps (You have to escort Leia to safety on the Tantive IV), improved AI, art and renders provided by ILM, and combat that extends into Episode III (some of the game devs have previewd the movies to assure accuracy).
