    I first picked up BF2 from Origin at about mid 2018.
    By this time, the loot box controversy was addressed and all of the P2W elements were replaced by a new progression system.
    Now, i have picked the game for about 25$, because i kinda liked the previous title, and mainly ignored the 1.1 user review score that was given here. Now, more than 200 hours into the game, i guarantee you
    I first picked up BF2 from Origin at about mid 2018.

    Now, i have picked the game for about 25$, because i kinda liked the previous title, and mainly ignored the 1.1 user review score that was given here.

    Now, more than 200 hours into the game, i guarantee you that this game doesn’t deserve the huge backlash it received, for a number of reasons.
    First of all, this is not the first nor the last game to use micro transactions. In fact, after the new progression system patch, the game has become the only game i know that you can access fully without having to pay a dime. (Free DLC - where can you find that?)

    So with that said, ill explain what are the pros and cons from the perspective of a CASUAL gamer, cause if you are a competitive type of feller, i am afraid that you will be better avoiding the game, or trying to understand that it isn’t meant to be a competitive shooter of some sort.

    First of all, the multiplayer.
    There are plenty of modes, that some of them may appeal to you and some may not at all.
    For example, i never play the Starfighter mode, simply because i dont like it, not because its bad or anything.
    There are other modes, bigger and smaller, such as Blast which is basically team death match, Galactic Assault which is biggest one, and simulates a battle between two enemy factions based on different objectives for each map. Its a very dynamic mode.
    Another new big mode which is my favorite, is Capital Supremacy, which i will not get into details of, but check it out cause its cool.

    Also a favorite of mine, are the Hero Showdown (which is great if you have a friend willing to coordinate attacks with you) and the Heros VS Villians modes, which are very casual fun modes (pretty unbalanced, however) that shine because of their accuracy to the SW movies and are very appealing to people who like the SW universe of characters, and lets you play as iconic ones such as Obi Wan, Vader, Palpatine and etc. in a sort of power fantasy manner.

    Overall the multiplayer modes are very nice, fun, lore accurate and chaotic while calculated, even if somewhat unbalanced and a bit buggy, which makes the game not very appealing to hardcore gamers,

    The gameplay has improved drastically over the last title, and is appropriate for a triple A shooter however it may take some getting used to.

    There is also a campaign mode, that i would look at as a nice bonus for the true Star Wars fans who will appreciate a nice cameo of an iconic character here and there. The story won’t win any awards, but is nice to have,

    A huge pro that this game has is its visual aspect.
    Now, say what you will about EA, but they sure do know how to make their games look fantastic.
    Search for photos and you will understand what i am talking about; all the models and assets are near 100% accurate to the movies and look even better than the CGI from Episode 1 , for instance.
    All of this while performance is great, i have a graphics card from 2012 which runs the game on almost max settings and a stable 60 fps, and loading screens have been improved and are now very short if you have a decent CPU and an ok hard drive.

    I think that by this point the game has a lot of content, with a lot of maps, heros, and modes, and the game’s biggest con is the poor balancing in some of the modes. Also, despite the fact that the game received overall decent support since it’s launch, there are some things that could make the game a far more appealing experience, such as private matches, that are being asked for a long time and yet to be added. That is why i am conflicting with myself how i would rate this game, because on the one hand, it’s a really impressive and most of all fun game, but on the other it lacks some things that could make it a lot better.

    It is worth saying that as far as community goes this game has a relatively large and nice community and 2 great community managers that do everything they can to bridge between the dev team to the players, which is worth pointing out.

    The game costs currently around 7 USD, and for me it was worth my 25$, so watch some gameplay and do what you will.

I have already put over 24 hours in and I am having a lot of fun. The game play is really good and the graphics are really high quality. The story line is a lot of fun and is a great addition to the Star Wars cannon. There is also already a lot more content then there was in the first battlefront and the DLC is free. If you are a Star Wars fan there is a high chance you will enjoy this title. i just wanted to give an honest review before all the review bomb 0's start popping up. I get that micro-transactions are a bad practice and shouldn't be in video games, but to review bomb because of it isn't a good practice either. All it's going to do is make people not be able to trust reviews. There are better ways to show EA that the loot box system needs to be removed from games. Remember most games that have loot boxes for sale are still charging for DLC. This game is at least giving all the DLC for free. Almost all of the stuff you get from loot boxes is also locked behind progression, even star card levels are directly tied to in game progression. You can't spend money to max out your character. Also as of now they completely removed the micro-transactions. I also don't understand why people are saying its gonna take forever to get all the characters, i have them all and i got them in less than 10 hours, and no i didn't buy any loot boxes. It's like these people are basing their reviews off the beta. The game has changed so much sense then. Expand

    Star Wars Battlefront 2.

    Currently the most controversial game that exists. Consider this - yes, there is a lot of discussion about microtransactions going on, and EA's practices are almost criminal and to be despised on every level.

    Consider this - yes, there is a lot of discussion about microtransactions going on, and EA's practices are almost criminal and to be despised on every level. Also their reactions to this outrage might be a thought through PR stunt. Who knows?

    One thing is a fact though. If you ignore the issue for a second that this game has a pay2win system and just try to see the game itself, it's graphics, atmosphere, sound design, gameplay, level design, singleplayer campaign - It is a really, really great game.

    Problem right now is not only EA's trustworthiness and the possibility that they actually won't change anything despite claiming they will but also that a huge amount of people are thinking they're doing the right thing when they're spreading false information or are blowing things way out of proportion which has happened and even lead to a lot of media misrepresentation. (Death threats, refund button)

    EA could literally remove the whole system and make the game be totally fine, and you would still see posts claiming that it'S fake and EA is trying to trick you.

    If you're looking at reviews for this game to decide if you should take the chance and buy it, you won't find anything useful.

    90% of reviews here on metacritic are either hatetrain **** or from people who have not even played the game at all and are just trying to keep the fire going. Because in the end, the game itself is great - But nobody cares about this.

    No, i am not working at or for EA, i am just a gamer that despises when communities outrage about disgusting developer behavior while using the same tactics to stir the fire.

    Overall the single player is good and the game is really fun but the progression system is crap. There is going to be a lot more maps characters and campaign levels added and ea are trying hard to correct their mistakes.
    Just play the game. If you like starwars you will like this.

    IT REALLY DOESNT DESERVE TO BE GIVEN "0/10" FROM THOSE WHO HAVEN'T EVEN PLAYED IT!!

Learn to play tactically, learn your weapons, learn to land shots - and you won’t even feel this so-called “pay-to-win”.

    I want to be part of an adequate, healthy gaming community. If you give a game 0.0 (not 6.0, not even 5.0, but ZERO, just think about it) only because you hate loot boxes, and you didn’t even bother to pay attention to great graphics and optimization, captivating gameplay, diverse maps and great sound effects - at the very least you’re not being honest.

    This showcase of hatred and stupidity that I’ve found in users’ reviews is really embarassing. I do hope that the average score of this title will rise - or else Battlefront II would become the most underrated game I’ve ever known.

    Very fun game. Do not listen to the haters going insane over the microtransactions. It is still possible to play the game and have fun even without higher tier cards, for now. Over time, if the game fills up with players who are all rocking maxed out heroes and troopers then, yes, you will have to start forking over some cash to keep up.

Over time, if the game fills up with players who are all rocking maxed out heroes and troopers then, yes, you will have to start forking over some cash to keep up.

    I actually think the weapons - which you don't need the crates for - are more important than the star cards, and the weapon grinds are particularly brutal. That's one area where EA could have clearly made the game "pay to win" (by allowing you to buy the guns) but they didn't. Everyone really needs to calm down about the transactions. I doubt any of these complainers have actually played the game. If they decided to try it before bashing it they'd probably discover that it's actually pretty fun.

    It's clear that if you want to get the most out of your experience you'll have to spend a good 100-200 hours with this game, and that's even if you also chose to spend the equivalent of a season pass or two on the crates. Big whoop. If you're having fun who cares?

    It's a shame to see such an over-the-top, immature, and frankly, a borderline libelous reaction from these reddit nerds. These are the kind of people that hate fun of any kind and log on to reddit to gripe about EVERYTHING. Pathetic.

    It's an arcade shooter, not a large, conquest based FPS like Battlefield. Appreciate it for what it is: a sometimes mindless but ultimately enjoyable online multiplayer action game. I'm normally a Battlefield player but I'll gladly make SWBF II my go to game when I go on a Battlefield break.

    Well what can I say, I'm normally not the kind of guy who writes stuff on the web...

    Actually I don't care so much with the pay2win aspect, because you can get all the items without paying aswell. It can take some time, but to me personally thats feels like a nice progression. They reduced all credits, right now it doesn't feel to me as a too long grind. Personally I don't feel bad

They reduced all credits, right now it doesn't feel to me as a too long grind. Personally I don't feel bad killed by players who already obtained these items through payment, it's something to work for and if I have it I can say I didn't pay for it. It would have been really bad if you can buy items which are not obtainable through playing, but that's not the case.

    The fact that lootboxes are random for me as player is fine and fun, I actually like it (it's like drops in World of warcraft), you either be lucky or not. But the randomness for people who pay for it, is bad design I think. To be honest if it was to me, I would say cosmetic items only aswell by the way, don't get me wrong.

    I bought this game after they got their microtransactions removed (for PC it was only €45 via instant gaming cdkey). I wanted this game anway because it looked so badass and the beta was great fun!

    I did not play the campaign yet, so can't judge on that. But the Multiplayer honestly is amazing. Haven't had so much fun for years playing a game. I really regret that I bought CoD WW2 last week, because this is so much better. I refuned battlefront 1, because it just didn't do it for me. But this one deserves a solid 8. Could be a 9 if they fix some minor bugs, add leaderboards, stats for all weapons. But this could be added in the feature probably. The many content right now is already amazing, and free DLC is coming aswell.

    I really think if they come back with the microtransactions to be pure cosmetic only, this game is really good.

    And although I really understand that EA screwed this up, I think you should give the people from DICE who has delivered this game a second chance. But that's up to you ofcourse, I don't regret it :-)

    I'm not a fanboy or anything, just a casual gamer who really enjoys the expericence so far!

    Probably getting lot of angry people on me, but hey that's the web :-)

    - Smooth responsive action
    - great sound
    - guns feel great to shoot
    - well done maps.
    - Star Wars, mustn't forget that. Faithful models, troops, guns etc
    - Still a twitch shooter so you will die a lot

    On the negative
    - Graphics look about the same (which means they look great) yet seem to require better hardware (so maybe this is a negative). Prior to upgrading my video card SWBF2 did not perform as well and SWBF yet when i upgraded my video card and play at max setting I can not see the difference in improvement.

    - Seem to be less ambitious with the various multiplayer modes. Gone are the blended modes that mixed space flight with ground action.

    - The drama from the gaming community is worse than the thing they are complaining about.

    EA and Star Wars is just a hot button topic for the gaming community. But this mob mentality and complaining about greed and "evil" publishers has simply gone too far. You can simply ignore the microtransactions and eventually everyone will have unlocked the most impactful upgrades so its sort of a moot point.

Multiplayer at times feels unbalanced, then at other times you are doing very well, aside from the guy on the top of the leader board that seems to have a spammy level of kills....All in all I like it, will keep playing and hope more people join online, it isn't a counterstike experience with super fast spawns but it isn't anywhere near Battle Field V, where you die so fast and wait forever only to have to pick who to spawn on each time, or run ALLLLLL the way across the map again for an objective, at least in this game it seems to be 75% faster gameplay overall. To end it, I wish titles like this learned from games like Counter Strike and the success it has, because what people want is not super realism in mechanics and being able to customize all the time, they want environments that are small scale, fast, even if you do have a large map, it should be simple....left and right side of map, try to push one side or the other, or simply team slayer overall, game companies are missing the mark generally by trying to provide what people hate, the same way Halo MCC for PC ruined matchmaking by removing custom server choices, where if you want you can play the same map over and over and over again....that's why on steam their player base is non existent.

    POSITIVES: Battlefront II beinhaltet viele Dinge, die mir sehr gut gefallen. Als erstes wäre hier die Grafik. Diese ist zwar nicht die beste, aber dafür solide und passend. Etwas anderes das ich grossartig finde, wären die Unterschiedlichen Spielmodi, die es gibt. Meine drei Favoriten wären hier Helden VS Schurken, Totale Vorherrschaft und der Koop Modus. Es gibt aber auch einen Spielmodi, bei dem es möglich ist mit unterschiedlichen Raumfahrzeugen im Weltall zu fliegen. Die Steuerung des Spieles auf dem PC ist auch super und anpassbar. Die Figuren wirken real und es fühlt sich an, als würde man selbst in der Welt anwesend sein. So lässt sich Darth Maul oder Count Dooku genauso spielen, wie wir sie aus den Filmen kennen. Die einen Charaktere sind dabei eher agil, andere wiederum eher Tanks. Aber das Beste an dem Spiel finde ich, dass es sich so real anfühlt. Man lässt seine Umgebung komplett ausser Acht und taucht dabei in die Welt von Star Wars ein. Das ist EA tatsächlich gut gelungen.

    NEGATIVES: Leider fühlte sich Battlefront II zu Beginn überhaupt nicht so an. So war die Grafik 3x so schlecht, wie jetzt und die Menüs mit den Charakteren sahen auch komplett anders aus. EA machte auch den wohl dümmsten Fehler aller Zeiten. So war das Spiel zu Beginn nur Pay to Win. Die Karten konnten nur mühselig freigeschaltet werden (daher auch die schlechte User Bewertung). Dies ist aber Vergangenheit und mittlerweile glänzt das Spiel auch so gut, wie nie zuvor. Dennoch gibt es auch heute noch Dinge, die mir nicht passen wollen. So finde ich es komisch, dass Charaktere, die kauern so schnell laufen können, wie kleine Spinnen. Schade finde ich auch, dass es keine privaten Lobbys gibt. Ich würde gerne Mal ein VS mit meinen Freunden zocken.

    FAZIT: Battlefront II ist ein grossartiges Spiel. Jeden Monat kommen neue Inhalte ins Spiel. Das sind nicht zu viele Updates, aber auch nicht zu wenige (siehe Fortnite). Ich würde das Spiel jedem empfehlen, der gerne Shooter Spiele spielt oder ein tolles Star Wars Feeling erleben möchte. Ich weiss nicht, wie die Zukunft des Spiels aussehen wird, aber ich denke das dauert noch eine Weile, bis das Spiel eingestellt wird (Meine Spielstunden betragen 430h). Der Kostenpunkt liegt bei 30€, meistens gibt es aber auf MMOGA Preisreduktionen. Für ein volles Battlefront II Review --> siehe mein Battlefront II Review auf YouTube an.

    The game has grown since its initial launch back in November 2017. Battlefront 2 has gotten much content that has helped the game grow.
    It has become an enjoyable multiplayer game for star wars fans like my self. Its also gotten cheap and is often on sale.

    P.S Don't bother with the campaign its trash

    I bought this game 1 year after release and I think this was the best time to play. No microtransactions, many additional stuff (maps/characters) - even without buying a DLC - and full servers.
    One Problem is the hardcore grind to get more powerfull.

    This game has massively changed since it's controversial launch. Microtransactions have pulled a Houdini and dissapeared completely, leaving a very fun multiplayer shooter, that anyone can enjoy without popping open a wallet.

    Battlefront 2 is a game driven by the Star Wars franchise and Star Wars fans. With Battlefield-like gameplay, you can run into battle as a clone, battle droid, rebel, or stormtrooper. With vehicles as seen on TV, the game does a good job of balancing planes and tanks versus the infantry.

With Battlefield-like gameplay, you can run into battle as a clone, battle droid, rebel, or stormtrooper. With vehicles as seen on TV, the game does a good job of balancing planes and tanks versus the infantry. There's four unique classes, guns that feel distinct, and many recognizable maps from the Star Wars movies. Despite Battlefront 2’s glaring loot box problem on release, the game rebounded to become one of the best shooters in recent years. Although the singleplayer wasn’t what fans expected or wanted, the multiplayer easily made up for it. Although support has stopped in 2020, the amount of content was more than enough to have fun in Battlefront 2 in 2020. Many of the problems in Battlefront 2015, such as DLC locked behind a paywall, and annoying hero systems were solved in the new Battlefront. Something that was for sure not a problem in Battlefront 2015 was the maps, which continue to be good in Battlefront 2. The maps are all visually stunning, as expected from any EA game. Unlike a lot of EA games however, the content actually lives up to expectations. One of the most important additions to Battlefront 2 was the fact that the developers listened to what the players really wanted, including new blasters when fresh ones hadn’t been added since launch. Even though lightsaber combat feels a bit weird, the points system to unlock vehicles and heroes is much better than the hero token system of the 2015 version. Heroes and vehicles also manage to balance fun for the hero and the infantry they’re facing, and not upsetting either side of the argument.
    The singleplayer, unfortunately, wasn’t what most people wanted. The story starts out with the player playing as an imperial stormtrooper, but quickly goes back to the standard rebel gameplay. A few hero missions are mixed in, but aren’t really that interesting especially the infamous bug-fighting level. Overall, the multiplayer-focused game has a good multiplayer and a disappointing singleplayer, but that’s good enough for most players.

    Battlefront 2 has really improved, they removed all micro-transactions, and its a really good game. Multiplayer and Co-Op is good and the story is great. Only downside of this game is that it gets repetitive and they should add more or switch up the characters a little.

    Battlefront 2 acutely demonstrates how good games can be buried under devious business practices. It's a solid multiplayer shooter with a serviceable campaign and can deliver a few of dozens of hours of fun.

    The shooting part of the core gameplay is finely tuned so that every shot has an impact without obscuring your view or hindering your movement, which plays nicely into how fast-paced the game is. Lightsaber combat, on the other hand, feels floaty and lacks response, but that allows attacks to feel lightning-fast and easy to execute. Movement overall feels rather nice, while movement abilities, be it dodges, jetpacks, or droideka roll, are all fun and responsive to use. Gameplay differs drastically between characters, which obviously messes up the balance, but allows for diverse playstyles which fit different players or different moods. The loadout system expands the customization of how you play even further, and it never felt like making a huge gap between players. Transports are of varied quality, but they don't feel jarring or unintuitive to use. Maps are varied, featuring setpieces that emulate the Star Wars feels with uncanny accuracy, but there are a couple of weird choke-points and questionably long and convoluted corridors that might disrupt the pace of the match sometimes.

    As with the maps, the game overall looks and sounds surprisingly close to the movies, providing constant fanservice excitement. Outdoor environments are especially stunning in their realism achieved with the science-fiction art of photogrammetry.

    Campain is a pleasant surprise as well, providing a superficial but engaging story from a rare perspective in Star Wars canon. Characters are nothing to write home about, but they can be rather compelling at times. And the weakest spot, as per usual, is the mission and level design having trouble adapting the gameplay structure designed for multiplayer into a solo experience.

    While not being anything exceptional, Battlefront 2 is a great game that knows what it has to do and executes it very confidently. After cleaning up bugs and minimizing microtransactions and their impact on the game, DICE proved that if not tainted with the egregious monetization model, their shooters can be fun, indeed.

It's also one of the only games I've played on PC that natively supports HDR without having to force it through Windows. So from a technical standpoint and for single player content alone, I highly recommend this game. The controls are great whether on mouse & keyboard or controller.

    In saying that I would add at least another 1 point, maybe more, if you are a Star wars fan, given all the weapons and units and uniquely recognisable characters that become available from that particular universe; it is quite impressive to see that amount of stuff on the same battlefield at the same time -and is quite Epic (not always at same time of course - many maps vary). It is also very well polished, as you would expect from an AAA game.

    But without the skins and judging absolutely from merit, it is a decent multiplayer game on a grand scale – because of this scale, it can be hard to see what effect you are having on any particular game – that is my friend and I, felt whilst playing. The focus is on bullet spongey characters, their skills and some how doing enough damage to compete with your team-members to afford to 'buy' a 'force user'(Jedi or Sithlord etc) - although there are plenty of other special units to use, which was good.

    The single player was playable and most certainly gives an idea of what some characters can do if you were to use them in the multiplayer theatre and would probably be very interesting to those who like story or are interested in Star Wars.

The arcade modes are pretty fun too, although I do miss the instant action and galactic conquest that the original BF2 had.

    I don't care about MP so I get nothing out of that. It's all about SP campaigns for me. Ideally, with an online co-op option (i.e. Dying Light, Soulsborne, etc.).

    As for optimization, there were quite a few bugs to iron out on the Origin copy (thankfully, a few google searches fixed all issues). I was also surprised to see the length of the loading times take so long. If the Witcher 3 can load faster on my PC (i7, GTX1080, 16GB RAM), that's probably a red flag to the developer. I can only imagine what they're like on console.

    Either way, if you're looking for a fun Star Wars game to play, pick this one up. I don't feel any post-purchase regret buying this at $20 because I thoroughly enjoyed the campaign ( i also listened to the Inferno Squad audiobook beforehand so that gave some decent context to the characters).

    All that said, I LOATHED the first Battlefront game. It was pretty but boring.

    Battlefront 2 took two steps forward, one step back. You could tell that the EA execs simply couldn't resist. Which is a shame because this was a pretty fun game, single-player-wise.

    The line of sight in third-person point of view is frustratingly misrepresented on the screen. If you are dealing with any corner situation where you want to peak around and take a shot, you're likely to shoot the wall even if your reticule is in the clear. The game does provide a visual cue to let you know when the crosshairs are really, really in the clear. The cue they presnt is a gray X to the left of our crosshairs. This puts you in the situation of trying to line up your target around a corner in a tense situation, but then up pops a second crosshair X, and it's just plain annoying. This is a long-standing issues with games that are in third-person POV. I don't know what the solution is. Maybe the player should be forced into first person point of view when he/she takes cover.

    Another control mechanic that was on the fail side for me was the dogfighting. While piloting the TIE fighter, I felt like a fly buzzing around with only one and half wings. Using a controller was pretty much out of the question for me. I actually died a few times just trying to navigate around ships with an x-box controller. With mouse and keyboard, I was able to control the ship, but it was still a hot mess. Having the targeting control for the guns be the same control for the movement of the ship is just bad. I wonder if the developers did this on purpose to make it feel like you feel frail and endangered. The lack of options to strafe in the ship also seemed weird to me. I've spent a lot of time flying helicopters in Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4. Something comparable to that would be choice.

    The first thing that grabbed my attention in the entire game was the design of Iden's inferno squad helmet and her attire. Obviously influenced by the class Vader design, the control panel on the front of the chest plate serves out the nostalgia. The droid mount on the back was also a cool placement, reminiscent of the drone backpack in Ghost Recon: Wildlands. The design and rendering of these imposing costumes immediately sated my desire to kick some Rebels in the teeth.

    The animation and scene designs as well as the writing and delivery of the lines in the cut-scenes were pretty good. Nothing came off as cheesy. I like how subtle facial expressions have snuck their way into our games. The slightest flex of a fist or raise of a cheek can add the right quality to important scenes. These were not amazing or anything, but totally enjoyable. Also hysterically fun is some of the off camera environmental dialogue you overhear as you are storming a base or ship. You can hear NPC's screaming and calling to each other in warning as if the predator or an alien was tearing up their comrades. All these little things add to the mood and your connection to the adventure in Battlefront Two.

    EA Dice also delivers on some really immersive cool moments. In one scene I thought I was just going to land in their on-ship dock and CGI would just take me into first-person. Nope. They let you hover there and annihilate the entire dock, including some X-wings. When you get out of the ship, you hear crew running for their lives screaming, “Oh my god, it's the pilot. The pilot's getting out of the ship. Run!” When you think things have calmed after a tough fight, cliffhanger moments come unexpectedly and are offered with that warm Star Wars humor. It would be nice to see these moments become a little more interactive, but it's enough to draw you further into the character and the adventure of the story.

    Instead of reloading, most specialized weaponry has a cool-down timer. At first I was annoyed by this, but I guess it makes sense. The game shows off weapon variety early on, encouraging you to use a charging sniper rifle, a grenade launcher, missle launcher, shotgun, but I didn't see any innovative main weapons. Some of the secondary weapons like this device that sets of a localized elector magnetic pulse on nearby enemies were pretty fun. It allowed you to approach the mostly generic combat with some style and a bit of strategy.

    I'm not going to say much about multiplayer. I will say that I didn't see anything new here, but it was fun. I did like that the game offered extra points if you stayed close to your squad and pushed objectives together. Of course, you are randomly placed after you die, and the group usually quickly divides up and runs to opposite ends of the map.

    Star Wars: Battlefront Two looks to be like an enjoyable casual shooter with an engaging story. If I was a bigger Star Wars fan, I'd probably tell EA to take my money, play through the story, then never touch the game again. Otherwise, I'd say wait for a sale on this title.

    Star Wars Battlefront 2, is of course the sequel to the online only star wars battlefront, but this time it adds a campaign, and boy is it disappointing… Before I start, I’m going to make it clear that I’m not a star wars fan… I’m reviewing this game as a game.. license unattached… And if you’re not a star wars fan, this 4 and a half hour long

    Hit and Miss
    Star Wars Battlefront 2, is of course the sequel to the online only star wars battlefront, but this time it adds a campaign, and boy is it disappointing…
    Before I start, I’m going to make it clear that I’m not a star wars fan…
    I’m reviewing this game as a game.. license unattached…
    And if you’re not a star wars fan, this 4 and a half hour long campaign is a gigantic waste of your time.
    This is easily the most generic garbage I’ve ever suffered through...
    IT plays, is delivered, and feels like a 2010 ps3 game…
    The campaign tells the story of Iden Versio mostly... though not primarily…
    Infact half of the time not at all…
    You get a bit of a perspective of the dark side, as shes the commander of the inferno squad
    but the game make a huge mistake of following different paths of multiple heroes... characters you know...
    minor spoilers, but youll be light sabering it up which was easily my favorite parts of this campaign…
    And these great moments are interrupted with space battles that go on way too long and an uninspired least fun of all time linear 3rd person shooting adventure where you can play around with the idea of cards.. As every hero you play in the campaign has their own special moves on a cool down they can use... but as iden you can swap these cards for different grenade tpyes for example... or perk like health regeneration and shield...
    I found the campaign to be a great way to introduce the mechanics of the online and for that reason is worth checking out… but nothing more as it’s just a bunch of shoot everything in your way while you get to a checkpoint, and defending positions while an npc interacts with an item… that’s it..
    There are a few okay missions here and there… but none of them are ever fun... at all...
    Again if you’re not a star wars fan just use it as a tutorial mode and get out of there...
    There’s no fun, no meaningful story... theres nothing here…
    Though completing the campaign does reward you with credits and loot boxes to give you a little head start online...
    Thankfully the online unlike the campaign is fun and is this games saving grace
    Online features 5 different modes, the 2 big ones 40 player classic assault which is objective based of defending and attacking positions or items and there’s the 24 player Starfighter assault, which is a bit like classic but in space…
    these 2 game modes aren’t really what I enjoy in competitive modes and had me more frustrated with the pay to win feel of the game where players can all have more powerful cards, and again with 40 players running around you’re going to die pretty quickly in this mode if you’re a newbie..
    You’re better off building yourself up in the other 3 modes first and coming back to these 2 later
    I was afraid I was going to tear this game apart in my review until I played these much smaller game modes there’s blast with is 20 player call of duty style team death match, 16 player strike which is another objective based game mode,
    All 4 of these modes you’ll be getting kills and earning points to bring in support from heroes and star craft to clean house and potentially turn the tables in a losing battle…
    and then there’s my personal favorite 8 player heroes vs villains… where there is no saving up points..
    Everyone starts as a hero character and it’s a game of attacking targets while defending your team mate…
    This mode is a blast to me, and by itself changed my overall opinion of this game..
    Everyone feels over powered... it’s just a matter of who can use their powers the best...
    The controversy of this game comes mostly in the microtransactions which are currently disabled...
    But there is a loot crate system where you can buy crates with credits earned in game from clearing challenges and finishing matches… and in these crates are cards, credits, and crafting materials…
    Cards are bonuses you can attach to your characters... and this is what makes the game feel pay to win…
    Your characters don’t get stronger by you using them.. They only get stronger by luck of the drawn…
    Though you are able to craft cards of your choice with the crafting parts you earn and you can increase the power of these cards with these parts... though these are a bit rare
    I don’t find these cards to be as big of an issue in smaller modes oddly because I feel youre given more space to rely on your skill as a player…
    But in the larger modes youll definitely notice the buffed up players as their cards flash across your screen while theyre killing you over and over again with their upgraded grenades and turrets…
    its annoying..
    Star Wars Battlefront 2 is a bit of a let down to me, and im not even a star wars fan…
    But there is fun to be had here in its online.. Especially in its smaller modes...
    I give Star Wars Battlefront 2
    a 6.5/10

    This game is a mixed bag to be honest; It looks fantastic, it has solid shooter game play, the same goes for starfighter modes too and the campaign is a decent (but not amazing) story.
    But then there's loot boxes, micro-transactions and pretty much everything wrong with the game industry, all have managed to get into this game and it is such a shame but it's probably easier to do this bit
    This game is a mixed bag to be honest; It looks fantastic, it has solid shooter game play, the same goes for starfighter modes too and the campaign is a decent (but not amazing) story.
    But then there's loot boxes, micro-transactions and pretty much everything wrong with the game industry, all have managed to get into this game and it is such a shame but it's probably easier to do this bit by bit.

    I'll start off with the Single player then:

    Campaign:
    While not the best (or most original) Star Wars story I've seen it does its job, it showcases solid game play, beautiful graphics for both character models and locations while tying it all together with some pretty great voice acting... and unfortunately that is all I have to say about it, there is a lot of wasted potential here and I'm hoping this is utilised in the DLC seasons that are on the way.

    Arcade:
    Another example of wasted potential here, while fun the battle scenarios are a bit limited. Custom arcade however is a great idea but currently very bare bones, we currently only have 2 game modes with the largest being a 10 vs 10 death match style game, while this is OK there much bigger and better game modes in the multiplayer and these really need to make there way over to arcade for it to be anything more than a quick distraction. (Oh and I think all of the blasters should be available in arcade like they were in skirmish from the last game).

    Now for the multiplayer, this sadly is where the game falls apart. While having more game modes and the same solid game play as before it is horrendously unbalanced, this is completely due to the games loot box progression system and it's frankly awful.
    All of the star cards are in these loot boxes which have such a high purchase price it is a grind just to get one or two boxes and it's the same for hero unlocks, unlike arcade mode many of the heroes are locked behind a huge grind (apparently 40+ hours).
    This needs to drastically change in order to make the multiplayer worth while.

    In conclusion, the game itself is a solid shooter but many of the game modes aren't fleshed out enough for them to be substantial, the biggest problem here is the loot box system and EA or Dice need to seriously look at this as it is ruining an other wise pretty good game.
    There are additions and changes coming over the next year or so, hopefully these make the necessary changes needed to do the game justice, until then however I can't give the game anything higher than a 6/10.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. How 100+ hours of expirience feels like,honest review,also those who havent played the game stop rating the game 0/10
    (SPOLERS)

    CONS
    -Heroes are weak,and im ok whit that.But its the fact how stupidly you die whit them.
    Either it is a suicidical strafe runner from sky,at st killing you in 5 seconds,vanguard or sentry.

    -singleplayer sucks
    -Singleplayer is boring and Iden switches sides,its also too short
    -lootcrates
    -cards
    -Some maps are bad,some are to short, and some phases of the map suck(not to say its foll all maps_
    -6 modes which only 1 or 2 of them are good
    -Expensive as ****
    -Progression sistem sucks
    -No bots on the ground
    -Teams dont get scrambled at the and of the match so if one team loses it will lose and lose again
    -Bombers dont actually bomb,just shoot misles
    -AT-RT s dont actually jump even know they do in star wars universe.also in bf2 they are slow clumzy(like jar jar)
    -After you play a game you dont feel you are improving.
    -After playing most of the time there is nothing that you sit down and think about,there is no funny epic moments,memorable expiriences after yoou stop playing it
    -Game is unbalanced
    -Not that much content
    -Not much big updates
    -MADE BY EA

    PROS:
    Flying and starfighter assault is only fun modes
    -Can be fun at the times
    -Heores feel fun
    -There are a lot of good maps
    -Gunplay feels good
    -Every gun is unique and you can allways find a gun and a class that is best for you.

    Also for those who say this game is p2w,its not really.A guy spent 100 dollars for the game and all he did is maxed few cards for vaders,so if its p2w you really have to spent thousands of dollars in it

    Please try Heros Vs Villains that is actually the best mode of this game. Just learn the advanced hero fighting like parry/riposte (originally glitch but now days feature) and camera flicker dodges and this mode actually is very skill based and rewarding.

    MP: Poor map design which results in meat grinder situations where 40 players fight for a small portion of land. Playing the objective is not incentivised enough resulting in no one playing the objective. Heroes broken/unbalanced for months after release. Heroes are awarded to good players resulting in even more unbalanced matches, so games are usually face rolls. Also something is wrong with servers and matchmaking. I played on some maps constantly, barely on some and NEVER on one or two maps, and I played for around 25h!

    Its still quite broken and unbalanced with the developer playing Bungie role keeping everything to themselves instead of having an open conversation with fans. To sum up I bought the game after 2 months of release. Payed around 2/3 of the original price, but still am quite disappointed.

    But the game has been scummy-business-free for a long time now and keeps getting nice, fair content updates, so I am willing to rate the game itself. It's not perfect, but...
    (TL;DR: Too much movie, too little game.)

    + Awesome atmosphere! It's like you are playing a movie!
    + Awesome graphics and sounds!
    + Combat feels and looks great.
    + Canon is followed very well for a multiplayer game.
    + Customization is great for a canonical game.
    + It's a small thing but it helps keep the game enjoyable: Chat is hidden by default so it won't ruin your immersion or your mood in case of a salt outbreak.
    + Spaceship battles!

    - Customization is lackluster for a game in general.
    - Very little player choice! You can't choose the map, you can't choose the side, you often can't even choose your class except for the infantry cannon-fodder because you are either lacking the points, the max amount is already in game or it's not available on the current map/mode.
    - Highly unbalanced! As infantry you will most likely spend most of your time dying to reinforcements and heroes, because they are stronger but cost battle points. But in order to get battle points you need to get kills/assists, so if the enemy player is better than you or has more battle points, for example because you joined later, you will spend most of the match dying in infantry. It exacerbates skill/experience gaps and leads to unfun snowballing like feeding in MOBAs.
    - A few game modes are popular, the rest rarely has enough players..
    - Forced to play in 3rd person view unless you play infantry.
    - Technical issues seem kind of common.

    BOTTOM LINE
    For the current low price it's worth giving it a try!

    And a few tips to help avoid frustration:

    * Don't solo-rush all over the map, it's a team game and without your team near you, you will get surrounded or crushed by stronger classes all the time.
    * Stick not just with your team, but also with the objective. It can be hard to figure out where the current front line is but it's usually somewhere between your checkpoints (which double as spawn points) and the enemy's.
    * Don't push your luck. In fire fights, get behind cover fast. With up to 20 players pear team, incoming damage can spike hard and you will often get killed by that one last shot right as you take cover.
    * Make peace with the fact that you will probably need to main more than 1 class/character, as not every map, mode and side has all the same ones. When you do that and are willing to enjoy several different classes, you can enjoy the game. You can still make them somewhat unique with star cards to best fit your playstyle.
    * It's a "hero shooter" with classes, characters and abilities. Remember you will need to take your time and learn what all the different abilities and weapons do to understand what's happening.

    Одиночная кампания очень однообразна. Что-то вроде Call of Duty (в худшем смысле), но в сеттинге Звёздных Войн. Катсцены - паузы между стрельбой.

    Nice to finally have a campaign. Too bad it's garbage. Characters are bland and the story is boring while making little to no sense itself.
    Resurrection is a nice idea, though it's way to short and has the same problems as the main campaign. Collectibles are alright. Gameplay is decent.

    The obvious focus however is the multiplayer. Sadly, EA didn't learn from the first game (what a surprise!) and did not improve on server stability or matchmaking. If you're lucky, the game is loads of fun. If not, well, too bad.

    This game is basically just another example of why EA won't get my money until they change their approach to games (got this one for free)

    Hikayesini bitirdim. Gerçek bir star wars filmi kalitesizliği ve saçmalığında. Absürt ve alakasız olaylar, mantıksız aksiyon sahneleri gırla. Birbirinin aynısı olan ve sürekli tekrar eden koruma ve ele geçirme görevleri bayıyor. Grafik ve sinematik kalitesi iyi.

    After the tragic launch of BF II, EA managed to overhaul the entire progression system and relaunch the game. It is, however, visible that Battlefront II is an incoherent game that was done in a slapdash way. It lacks any progress apart from the cards. Its predecessor was way better in this area. In terms of gameplay, it is a mediocre shooter full of bugs that sometimes can be satisfying,After the tragic launch of BF II, EA managed to overhaul the entire progression system and relaunch the game.

The single-player campaign is satisfactory, but still is not the best piece of writing. Expand

    Single player campaign only takes 4 hours to finish it is very short and extremely linear and the enemy bots are so dumb they always come in front of your face very few times they use cover. You can go to youtube and watch the campaign with the story there is no reason to buy the game for that. As about multiplayer it's a waste of time full of bugs and useless microtransactions only goodSingle player campaign only takes 4 hours to finish it is very short and extremely linear and the enemy bots are so dumb they always come in front of your face very few times they use cover.

    Bought this game on Sale, The Single Player Gameplay on this sequel compared to its predecessor Star Wars: Battlefront by EA is terrible. The game doesnt know if it wants to be a 1st Person shooter or a 3rd person Action game.. Some parts are forced 1st Person and some parts are forced 3rd person. It can be confusing at times and hard to get into the game.

It can be confusing at times and hard to get into the game. The Tie Fighters and X-Wing battles on the other hand are perfect. The handling is responsive and so is the Artwork and sound design. It takes me back to the 80's. If EA has made this game a Starship battle game alone i would have been happy.. Instead you have these annoying missions in the middle that cant decide what type of game they want to be. I still play Battlefield 4, such an amazing game, then EA take that engine and turn it into a Star Wars game, and a bad one at that. The multiplayer is terrible also, so im not bothered about the microtransactions as will never play it. Would grab it on sale on Origin, but never buy it fill price as the only decent thing about it is the Starship battles and the rest is just Meh! Expand

    Some of the best graphics and sounds you will ever experience in a game. That being said, the business practices of the loot boxes is unacceptable and possibly criminal if the European courts have their say.

    Never mind all the issues surrounding the P2win elements the actual game is average at best. Generic, boring shooter. After killing 10 mobs on Arcade I was given access to Kylo Ren. I eagerly selected him and decided to pursue some melee carnage - after killing 20 mobs I couldn't really give a **** about anything else in the game. The combat was boring and stupid, no skill level at all. Rush forward, press attack over and over, maybe use a force push ... hold block for some incoming lazers, rinse and repeat - after 20 mobs I really couldn't be arsed. They seemed to all spawn from nowhere and after a while I didn't really give a **** about any of it. The sounds and music (i.e. atmosphere) all felt like an out of sync soundtrack. Pile of ****.

    Ok, some people might get upset that I didn't play the campaign, well I wanted to jump into the combat and find out what the 'end-game' was going to be like. Well **** I didn't care about anything after about 3-5 mins of playing, except wanting a refund which is exactly what I did. Maybe I demand more from games but 15-20 years ago this game would have been ripped apart for the gameplay alone.

    The problem with current reviews is that most of the kids playing now will practically play any old **** so it really doesn't take much to please them, and these companies know it.

    Average shooter game with Star Wars skins.

    **** if you ask me.

    Apart from the great Starfighter Assault mode Battlefront II is a mess of conflicting ideas, uneven mechanics and of course questionable monetization practices. DICE is facing long months of salvaging the game and the studio’s good name. [01/2018, p.32]

    Even the tinsel of the Star Wars world cannot hide the silly story and the boring singleplayer gameplay, or the necessity to accumulate the credits in the crate hunting in multiplayer. Battlefront II pleases as a genuine shooter in the beautiful scenery, but EA should deserve a slap into the face for their mad progression system.

    There's fun to be had, but for every step towards the Light Side, there's a foot stuck firmly in the Dark Side of bad design decisions. [Issue#269, p.52]
