Star Wars Battlefront II - Every Easter Egg, Reference, and Connection in the Story Mode 

Rebellion who “Dad I don’t support the Empire anymore” “Hi Don’tsupportthe Empireanymore, I’m dad!”

Rebellion who LOL ikr

Now Deadmiral Versio

@ Alex Greaney lmao

Sharil Shahed:too soon man

EckhartsLadder That could have been part of the reason it was at the dockyards

What about the fact that the name is straight out of Pirates of the Caribbean?

Danger : i liberated this planet Lando : that explains why the empire still here .

The volcano is going to explode isn’t it, no wait don’t tell me I want it to be a surprise

The story itself was poorly written, but every line of dialogue that came out of Shriv was pure gold. And this is coming from a guy that hates rebels.

Shriv: a Star Wars Story

Every line Shriv said was just gold. Loved him

DAVIDO THEBOSS Nope, sadly it’s not happening

@@Sterge08 ikr didn't happen

darth vader yeah

darth vader no, it was a dad joke.

Logan, Logan the Logan Does that mean Vader's a father? Cause he will be very excited

Good theory, we will have to see someday.

Deadmiral

I believe you are correct considering some of the dialogue in that mission. Someone, I think Leia, mentions the queen had it built after the assault on Theed and Del mentions that it is outdated. So putting two and two together it would make since to say it was built to fend off the CIS.

Seems right

You are correct.

Quote from Leia: "The Queen took precautions before the Clone War to keep Naboo safe from future invasions. An ion pulse that would disable any threat outside the palace." It was (most likely) installed before the Confederacy of Independent Systems was formed.

Mega_Spy Gaming Probably after episode 1, before 2, right?

Well Naboo...

For clarity, I would've liked if Operation Cinder was more than a single throwaway line, or if the Emperor's contingency was actually explored (maybe with Rax)

EckhartsLadder Again Naboo and Vardos.

What I'm saying is that neither of those missions expand on the established lore, rather it's just in reference to it. They're basically shooting galleries - I want to know more about *why* things happened, *who* was involved, etc.

The fact that something in the campaign happened in a previously established setting isn't enough.

Star Wars Explained a user on Reddit pointed out that in Maz’s castle there’s a portrait of Hondo Ohnaka! Pretty cool Easter egg there, wonder what his connection to her is?

Star Wars Explained maybe she wanted to look human since the empire had a prejudice against aliens

Loved the way you called him Dadmiral Versio

In the book Battlefront II Gleb is described as having 4 eyes, so I was confused in the Vardos mission when she only had 2 eyes. When I replayed the mission, I looked closer and could see that her two lower eyes were closed... there are faint lines that indicate when the eyelid have come together.

proably to appear more "human" since the empire isn't super accepting of aliens

Troopers have like a .5% hit rate

Yeah those stats are absurd. No wonder they stick to semi-auto fire all the time. That accuracy with the stopping lower of an E-11? Full auto would just be wasting power.

@@demi-femme4821 the empire would go bankrupt at the cost of the tabanna gas used in their blasted if the storm troopers went full auto.

Mic Clank I caught that too. Had to rewind to make sure I didn’t mishear him. 😂

Hahahahahaha!

Kai0fDathomir I did the exact same thing. Pretty funny thing to slip in

BattlefrontUpdates you are one of my favorite RU-vidrs!

That name sure didn't age well

@@sarahluise3153 yeah

I agree with that it was badly executed, they should have used more time to show the cracks slowly growing in their belief. IMO them turning wasn't really out of character. They approved of the violence as long as it was "for the good of the people". They believed blowing up a planet or killing some Imperials during a mission was justified if it prevented future rebellions or more casualties. Their whole moral code was based on them being the protectors of the Empire's people even if they had to dirty their own hands. This makes them incredibly loyal to the Empire as long as they believe it provides safety for its people. When the Empire decides to destroy Vardos for no real reason than "the emperor said so" and doesn't even try to rescue its loyal population, their beliefs stand against their orders and they chose people above order.

EonStormcrow I think she and del should have defected by having orders to wipe out the survivors on vardos and they can't do it

Absolutely agree! After the Pillio mission there should have been another mission with the whole squad and THEN have the destruction of Vardos. And yeah, even then they shouldn't immediately defect, only after yet another even worse order.. Also: 3. forced, rushed love story 4. constantly playing as OT heroes instead of the ACTUAL main characters

I agree, and the fact that you only play as the "main character" for half the misssions, and the "love story" that came out of left field. There were no hints at that happening then out of no where KISS..... puke. But it was fun, decent length for a multiplayer centric game. Plus the DLC is allegedly going to have more story missions.

H

DLC man.

The wookie liberation will be a dlc campaign?

If it is it’ll be free at least

I also feel like what they promised for the campaign was just a farce. Throughout the time the first reveal of the story was shown they kept mentioning that it's an Imperial campaign, yet what do we get? We get another Imperial defection story, and the actual Imperial side of the story was only 1/4th of the total campaign. Oh well, at least there's another -better- campaign that focuses on the Imperials in Battlefront II (Original).

Well one of the rules of Star Wars is the protagonists of a story always have to be either Jedi or Rebels.

it's very similiar not sure if it's just there as an easter egg or it actaully have some backstory . Maybe some comics will explore it.

In all the info I found and is depicted in Star Wars Bounty Hunter the game where you play as Jango Fett one entire portion of the game is you are trying to get to a prisoner held in a asteroid prison ooval 4 may of spelt it wrong but jingo's ship gets damaged by a firespary interceptor so he is forced to find a new one he destroys one that attacks him steals one and destroys the rest including the transponder on the one he steals and then names the ship Slave 1 as far as I know that is cannon and since the ship was a prototype and he destroyed all other examples of it, it is the last of its kind so more than likely the one seen is or was Boba's as Boba is kind of a dead or until the writers write a story of how he escaped from the sarlacc pit on Tatooine.

boba got eaten by the sarlacc

It could just be a mandolorain ship...

Joe Kerr I noticed that too

Raptorus77 for real had me dead

TheMegaSuperPickle yes you are correct

TheMegaSuperPickle ah, good catch.

TheMegaSuperPickle thought I was the only one that caught that

That's right: Two Raider Corvettes (one lost presumably with all hands), the Arquitens Light Cruser Thunder Wasp (with then Captain Thrawn serving as First officer) and the ISD Foremost.. I think it's been mentioned Thrawn is an amazingly recommended read on this channel

I remember it well :)

Yes, you did, Paweł! Alex repeated "Dadmiral" every time he was referencing Admiral Versio. BTW, nicely thought, Alex!

Replaying it today is definitely a better experience I'm glad to see they actually tried to fix everything

Big Bongo exactly. It limits casualties for Royal Guards and potentially Republic soldiers by shutting off battle Droids

Yes it was made right after the blokade after phantom menace and before clone wars which started 10 years after the blokade. Once the war started... well the cis really fancied nabo so... in that case it would totaly destroy the invading army but not the same as the empire as we have seen but still effective

1993DJC Actually, they were introduced in the novel Star Wars: Inferno Squad first. If Rey’s parents are truly “nobody”, the only likely options from known characters in the SW universe are Iden and Del, or more likely Thane and Ciena. With all the holes of having Rey a Skywalker, Solo, or related to any of major characters, the chances of her parents being “nobody” is extremely high

Rey doesn't know her parents. Del gave up being a soldier to be a father. If that were the case, wouldn't Rey at least have a recollection of her parents? Rey is obviously immensely force sensitive so where did she get that sensitivity from? Most assuredly not Iden or Del. There are no signs of force sensitivity in either of them. (These are just my opinions and the facts I stated are all only what I have knowledge of. Don't crucify me if I'm wrong.)

No its a sequel to catalyst, rebel rising and guardians of whills. Also dont forget its a continuation of lux bonteri’s story

Where is it said that Rey doesn't know her parents? The parents don't always have to be force sensitive for the child to be. Still, we have to think timeline. The 'Resurrection prologue' was not long before The Force Awakens, in which Rey is 19. So Rey would have to have been abandoned many years before, for a reason we still don't know.

I don't think they are Rey's parents tho. If they were, that scene in TFA where she touches Anakin's lightsaber would be totally useless. They could be Captain Phasma's parents. Aswell as the two new female characters introduced in TLJ. The asian girl or the one with pink hair.

maybe the first testing of a BB unit on the X-wing on Jakku

It’s not...but I get the joke

Lazlo Lord then why do you have to comment “it’s not”?

Beyond Paradise Gaming Of course it’s unfinished! They are adding more to it with free DLC!

I some stuff was left out because Last Jedi is not yet released.

Yeah, it's Takodana. Right before the apprentice Statisticians line.

See I don’t agree with Kylo...But Revan does sound right. It could be Nihilus as well...probably spelled that wrong

This is problably a nod to the Accolytes of the Beyond

Could also refer to the Lando comic. I believe they come up on some Sith artifacts.

Yeah. I feel kind of cheated, since they marketed it so heavily as an "Imperial Campaign" That and I wouldn't mind her defecting as much if they gave her more in depth reasoning beyond "oh wait, we do mean things to people? I had no idea. I'm quitting now."

Agreed

ThatAsianKid32 the thing is that before the fall of the emperor they didn't do things like operation Cinder, especially not to imperial planets. It wouldn't make sense for her to stay loyal.

Aaron Oania NO are you serious?? I should have walked slower!

viper Son December 13th if I remember right

And confirmed to continue the Epiloge

yes it set before the start of the force awakens .

Knowing EA it'll probably cost $60 to play it

Bob Marley no all dlc is free but good guess

Sums up Piett pretty well

Tarlo The Boar yup

Asap Animation thats like their n word lol xD

I actually cared for Del :c

I liked him

TheAxeManGamer exactly! We already Blue Milk will be featured, I’m just wondering about anything else

Cole Haskins hope so

Tarlo The Boar NOPE!

It's not. The game itself is average but it's visually spectacular. It's too bad people overreacted to the controversy. It really is a beautiful game. I'm having fun with it. It's not the best game ever made but still good.

Hassel The devs have reused or remade many of the old maps into the new bigger maps. Do you notice anything familiar about the hangars on Hoth? ;)

Please give me the dog tag! Please! Yeah :D

Hassel What dog tag? This isn't Battlefield

In the trailer for the battle of Jakku for the first battlefront you could see the Corvus during the battle, suggesting that the map takes place near the battle of Jakku single player campaign

MineShard001 I'm gonna have to look for that now

I believe Snap is 16 during the Battle of Jakku which would put him at about 45 in TFA.

kwloy and ill keep my eye out for that

Its a really cool portrait.

The empire didn’t become the First Order...Snoke crested it and turned Kylo to the Dark side to start it off

Kubinda12345 not eastereggs

Force Unleashed is unfortunately not cannon...and the paint job is as much as an Easter as Han Solo has his own mission

Jonathan Bevins yes, on December 13th if I'm not mistaken

Interesting

Yes
