I recently had some time to play through this mod. I have to say that to me your content is always a mix of interesting concepts, great visuals and the polish that many other mods often lack, and this is no exception.
I really liked the models used here, as well as the class setup and the gameplay changes (like how the Imperial Jump Trooper plays quite a bit like Boba Fett with that Jetpack and EE-3). I found it cool how you decided to to take loose inspiration from various media instead of choosing the established ideas from EA's Battlefronts.
Now, I know that it was probably meant to be a little fun mod, but in case you'd be updating it someday, I will just mention a couple of suggestions in case of any future release. First of all, I noticed that winning as the Empire is harder here. Also, I think that the E-11 is a little bit ineffective. It's more precise, but slower and deals less damage. Also, the Naboo Pilot class seems to be missing his 1st person view model. Also, I don't know if the lack of 5th class for Naboo Guards was an effect of a creative decision, but if the reason behind it was lack of an idea for that class, I think one of the solutions might be adding a Gungan Warrior class, something in vein of the Wookie Warrior, but that's just a small idea I had.
Anyways, I really like this mod and I hope that it is a sign of the things to come in the 'Anniversary Edition' Mod. :)
Thank you :) I've parked the sides for a second map I want to do so I may revisit and do some tweaks then.
Re. the Naboo Pilot FP: it should be there. You can see it in this video: Youtube.com The Droid Stunner model does kind of obscure it though.
Re. the fifth class - yes, it was a choice as I couldn't come up with something I felt fit.
