    Bah, who needs another iteration of the Battle of Hoth?

    Actually, I really do want this game, I'm just miffed that it's on every system but the Cube.

    It would make more sense if only pilots could get in the pilot's seat of speeders and fighters

    Yes, it would make sense- and also be a bad game (unless something fundamental about the spawning and vehicle-selection interface was changed)

    If only pilots could get vehicles, then all players would spawn as pilots, because they want cool vehicles. But there aren't enough vehicles to go around, so that leaves most of the team stuck as wimpy pilots who can't fight.
