Star Wars Battlefront III Legacy is a large-scale conversion mod created for Battlefront II using as many recovered assets that are available from the cancelled game Star Wars Battlefront 3 by Free Radical; including both eras (Clone Wars and GCW), a brand-new HUD+Interface and a few converted maps such as Coruscant, Cato Neimoidia, Bespin and Dantooine.
The Space section is finally in a releasable state. All frigates and capitalships, all its objectives and functions are....functional.
The ground map has slightly been improved with new props, bug fixes and: Ion Cannons. 4 to be accurate. The CIS and Republic can use two of them each and they deal massive damage to shields. They are an important part of the ground to space part of this game mode. Spaceships and destroyed frigates lower enemy reinforcements.
The next changes are: Vehicles/Sides, the HUD/Menu, Sounds and Localization. This shouldn't take as long as the space part did. You can expect the pre-demo to release before Christmas. In case it won't then definitely in before the end of the year.
