STAR WARS: BATTLEFRONT II TIPS & TRICKS
Easier completion of Tantive IV mission
In the mission on Tantive IV (blockade runner), the first and last objective are very difficult. At the start, once the door explodes and opens, use your thermal detonators. Get to the CP and keep dodging bullets and firing while standing near the CP until it is turned to your faction. This may take a few attempts, but it will work. Use Darth Vader after you have captured it. Use a regular Stormtrooper to take care of Leia. She should be around where you started the level. Use your grenades to soften her up, then your rifle to finish her off.
Easy tank kills
Place proximity mines on the tanks (Vanguard, Heavy Trooper, Shock Trooper) and any other kind of vehicle, except for the assault vehicles such as the AT-TE. A more difficult way is to use a sniper technique. Fire from a safe location. Target the vehicle, wait until the reticule turns red, then fire. Another useful bombardment unit is any that carry a recon droid. Their self-destruct mechanism makes them a formidable bombardment unit.
Easy Slicing points
Sneak aboard the Rebel capital ship and wait by the Y-Wing until someone gets in it. Then, use your torch to slice into it. You can cause it to explode if in the air, getting points in the process. Repeat this as many times as desired.
Yoda cant be hurt.
While playing a map with yoda and bodies of water run him towards guys in the water and they will shoot at you but since yoda is so short the water is like a shield.
