Check Out This First Look at Star Wars Battlefront II’s Heavy Trooper
Star Wars Battlefront II players will be heading into some of the most intense battles in gaming when the game launches in November, and a choice is going to have to be made. So which class of trooper will you be choosing? Will it be the Assault, Specialist, Officer, or the Heavy Trooper?
EA has revealed some brand new information regarding the Heavy Trooper, showcasing new images and what abilities players can expect to be using. These classes will differ depending on what abilities they possess, and in the case of the Heavy Trooper, its all about hefty firepower. So if you need to protect a local capture point, force your way through narrow areas, or lay down some suppression fire, then the Heavy Trooper is the way to go.
This is thanks to the two primary abilities that it possesses, starting with the Combat Shield. This brings a small forward-facing shield which gives players the chance to use their primary weapon whilst protecting themselves during slow advancement. The other ability is Sentry, which sees players entering a combat mode at medium-range to set off a repeating blaster that boasts very heavy damage, though your movement will be more restricted.
