I remember Polis Massa. PTSD from those hallways, flanking in tanks, going outside as the CIS because breathing is for meatbags, and so many grenades... most of which were mine... But it's great to learn about this asteroid and the beings they call home.
“Stand your ground men. Work together clones we’re still in this. Remember your training and fight” -Commander Cody. It’s hard to win as the Republic and Empire on Poliss Massa.
To Rebels now turned New Republic soldiers, and some droid brains suspected of being formerly from Separatist battle droids, doing sims on this facility is a combatant's dream. To clones and Imperials, however, it's a bloody cramped nightmare, especially to the former who can't fight on the space exposed sector without assistance from Saber tanks.
I’ll always remember how broken it was that the droids didn’t take damage from being in space in bf2. Had many battles start by going out there and taking the deepest base for the clones
"By the time of the raid on Polis Massa, the men of the 501st were starting to get a little sick of this so called 'Rebellion'. In the past, we'd secretly enjoyed putting down a local insurrection or two. They kept the troops sharp and the Empire feared, but these Rebels were different. They were organized, they were growing, and they were everywhere. The raid on Polis Massa was a perfect example of how things were starting to fall apart. We were supposed to go in, wipe out a small band of Rebels, and recover some stolen Imperial plans on an encrypted holodisk. Before we knew it, we were nearly overrun by Rebel forces, with the holodisk nowhere to be found." "Even though the Polis Massa raid was only a partial success, we finally had a lead on the whereabouts of the Death Star plans, which suited the 501st just fine."
0:15-0:21: Are we sure we're not talking about Bespin: Platforms level from Battlefront 1? Because that happened there a lot too. Definitely my favorite maps from the original Battlefront 1. And also one of the only ones where you can kill Dooku, Windu, Vader, and Luke. 9:45-9:48: Oh yeah this level was definitely fun, especially getting to take a vehicle or Droid outside to attack the other team's hanger from behind.
Does anyone know where Padme came up with the names for her children? Was Luke and Leia also the names of her parents? That's something I have always wanted to know.
Will Kallidahins mind if some true believers of the Separatists came to take refuge at their sector and unofficially secede it from the Republic? I doubted they will even care as long as these newcomers contributed enough to their society.
“I’ve got good news and bad news. The good news is it’s time to get off this dreary rock. The bad news is the Rebels have taken over the hangar. We’ll have to fight our way out.” - General Veers
Ya this level in the original Star Wars battlefront 2 game was a guilty pleasure of mine I remember setting the players to max numbers then battling it out in the middle for an hour getting nowhere so much fun!!!
That is a neat story. It however seems like with faster than light travel they just needed to send a hyperspace probe with a large telescope 100k light years away and see what was there. Maybe not detail but certainly if a planet was intact.
Oh right since the further away something is When the light reaches you, you only see the paste Like how some stars millions or billions of light years away are most likely dead and we are seeing only their past image
Tho I doubt star wars has that same logic as real life As space time relativity seamed to not exist As you can get to near light speed (not hyperspace as that is just another dimension) And not have time fast coward around you
Actually, you would only see 100k years in the past. Which is a lot for us, but for geological time is just a brief moment. The so called Polis Massa Cataclysm might have happened hundreds of millions of yeas ago
@@Bluepizza1684The destruction of Hosnian Prime was visible all over the galaxy at once. I don't think light works the same way in the Star Wars universe
it is wild to think the most chaotic and bloody area of battlefront 2 (a game where you reenact battles of a galactic war) is that little area where padme gave birth lol
0:20 Ah yes, the famous Polis Massa, where Ki Adi Mundi was turned into Swiss cheese. Easily mistaken for Mygeeto, where Anakin gave birth to Luke Organa and Leia Skywalker.
Droids had the great advantage of not dying when outside of the base, it was fun using a technician droid to slice into a republic held vehicle, get in and just wait for the clones to die outside... Perhaps a bit grim though...
With the way the map spawn system worked, the map is rigged in favor of whoever spawns from the right side of the map. Because at the CP near the center, you got spawned further ahead in the bay.
I loved this level in BF2! There were so many opportunities for flanking, and it was always a guess at whether the resistance you faced would be stiff or not.
