Well I gotta tell you, for a squad based game RC was damn good, the AI was very very impressive in my opinion. And I'm a hard critic because squad based games are my favorite type of game to play. Mostly in taking down the enemy, I know most squad games even with AI team mates you are still doing most of the work, due to your team either being too inaccurate or just too dumb to do anything, it didn't seem like it at all in RC. I didnt see one stupid AI move the whole time I played it. The only thing I felt could have been done a bit better was to have your team take the initiative more often to do different things. Like instead of having to tell them to go to a certain position to use anti armor or grenades, I would have like to have seen them bust out the rocket rifle attachment and put it to the Super Battle Droids more often. The enemy ai is also very good, I often found myself cursing them for being smart enough to dodge my shots and leap out of the way of my grenades, albeit wasting ammo.
The main weapon for your character needed a lot more power. The DC-17 blaster ran out of ammo too quickly for not very much reward at all, very much noticeable against the super battle droids. Most of the time I found myself going through half my ammo before saying screw it and charging at them to go Melee style. Thats another thing, the ability to bust out the melee arm thing was extremely useful and life saving on more occasions than not.
In hindsight I think it was way too short, there are only 3 actual missions that span across around 25-30 levels, not sure of the exact number but it felt like around that. Although besides that fact there were some levels that kept the combat and gaming rather tense because of the situations they would put you in. Especially the later levels on the imperial starship.
As for the multiplayer, I think its terrible, its too generic to be any good or different from any other game out there. Honestly if I wanted to play some classic deathmatch or capture the flag, I would simply reinstall Unreal Tournament 2004 and be completely content with the neverending content of that game.
All in all I really enjoyed this game, with the exception for the few little details that could have made it better and the length was disappointing, hopefully there will be the possiblity of a modding community to form to make some new campaigns or levels
