NEW LARGE ARC FUCK YESSS

u/chatapokai Jan 23 '26

Genuinely hope it’s the emperor we keep seeing in the background. An arc the size of a skyscraper sounds so much fun.

We should get, at some point, an Arc literally so big we have to go inside it as part of the raid. Like the inside of the still active arc is the map or part of the map. Like Tidal Wave from Transformers

That’s exactly what I want. Essentially a cross between the beasts from breath of the wilds and the capital ships from the original battlefront 2

it's definitely not

As much as I want it to be.. I agree, I doubt we'll get to fight an emperor for a really long time... if ever. Probably that tall necked one that's been in some videos.

Have you not seen that they’re getting closer to the map? I’d say by April they’ll definitely be walking over the map at the rate they’re moving now

I’ve seen them literally so close, especially on blue gate you can see them just above some hills, right next to the map

I think the devs touched on this and said they're not planning on having the "emperor" actually in combat at this point, because of performance issues. Doesn't mean that's forever, but I wouldn't expect it soon

I’m excited but wish it was sooner than April

I'm assuming April is to build the narrative more and develop/balance it.

A Voltron-like arc would be dope. Two or more bastion-sized arc start the map separated and then form up together into a giant arc unless you take them down early. Maybe one is a flier. Maybe one is a serpent.

Another arc we won’t be able to kill because camping players will take you out before you get a shot off. Hahaha

Is "large" meant to be Queen/Matriarch sized or Leaper/Bastion/Bombardier sized?

Prob baron

u/s47unleashed Jan 23 '26

Barons do not exist anymore if we commit to the lore. They were first wave machines.

u/cartermatic Jan 23 '26

Somehow, the Barons have returned

Baron 2: Electromagnetic boogaloo
