    Don't fall for it. They only care about money. We're talking about EA, a once inspiring company with great potential, now turned into a crapfest that works with Lucasfilm once again to profit from your hard earned money.

    EA's greedy politics are destroying great brands. The Battlefront 2 is another example. Mediocre single player campaign with less than 4 hours gameplay and pay to win multiplayer mode made this game worth zero $. It's a shame that DICE lost their soul for EA. I hope EA will bankrupt one day and these brands will find a new home. Help us players - don't buy this game - your are our only hope.

    I'm writing this review just to counteract one of the blind fanboys/EA employees that gave this game a 10/10.

    Having pay 2 win microtransactions in a full price game and if you dont want to spend money have a grindwall that would make even free mobile games blush is just unacceptable.Not only will i not buy any EA products in the future, i will also not waste any money on any star wars

    And to anyone who says: "they took out the microtransactions, get over it" NO, NO I WILL NOT. It's people like you that got us to this point in the first place.
    When Electronic Farts TEMPORARILY removed microtransactions cause disney told them they are actively hurting the star wars brand, that is when the power of bad press shows.

    To anyone that might read this: DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!

    This is absurd!
    The progression system is tied to loot boxes, and to encourage buying them, you are in for a grind fest.
    Do not recommend to anyone, especially if you are a Star Wars fan like me, this is not the game you're looking for.

I have raise a concern to the Australia FairTrading commission. The game content was designed to be locked to the players unless they spent money to unlock it. Its like buying a car and having the aircon locked until you pay for it. The game gets boring with the slow almost insignificant "creds" you get by the end of each round. It feels like a dull grind and you can see in the matches that people just want the games to complete to get the creds without really caring about anything else.

    So sad, I am sorry for all the artist and developers that are not hated by this greedy and unfair commercial practices. This is not a success because of EA greed. so sad.

    Anyway, this game looks great even if I have found many defects (on videos I looked and when I played the beta. Too much close combats, the action is too fuzzy, maps are too much linear which that surely leads to that fuzziness.
    Some defects from the first one have been corrected but the game is too much tuned for "pop-corn" sessions. Somehow epic, fast (or too short), without much flavor. In conclusion, you don't have the feeling you realize anything in this game. This game is finally pretty close to the definition of fast food. With all the bad things that it involves...
    That's a shame. All that potential wasted...

    Of course, this game is a good quality but, progress scheme based on loot boxes, no matter whether you can purchase them for real money or credits obtainable from a game. This makes this game very disapointing by slowing down progress dependant on crafting material found ONLY in lootboxes.
    Basically, its a trap for players to encourage them to buy lootboxes.

    Even though microtransactions have temporarily gone, all that's left is a dull grind, without reward for performance. There is nothing to get excited about each round when you know you'll be getting the same amount of credits at match end as everybody else (based merely on match length time).

    Any game at full price that locks content/characters behind more payment or else requires you to spend 40h to achieve is not just a bad game but a mockery to it's own customer and shouldn't be given any excuses.
    This right here even if it had the best campaign and multiplayer in the world would still not deserve any higher critic than 0, because it's essentially a scam, and scamming

    This right here even if it had the best campaign and multiplayer in the world would still not deserve any higher critic than 0, because it's essentially a scam, and scamming is...well, unethical, a crime. And precisely because it's done by a big shot corporation like EA, precisely because it's done to the Star Wars name it should be taken even more seriously, because if it's excusable for them then it's excusable for everyone (you may say it somewhat sets a standard).
    It doesn't matter if the rest of the game is good when you have that said, however even judging the game on it's own merit, minus the trickery, I have one thing to say: it can't even be on the same level as it's 2005 predecessor (besides graphics? but BF2 Classic had great graphics for it's time so, is it even valid point?), a 13 year old game...let that sink in.

    Heroes vs Villains: Just don't. The number of bot players who just stands there and being silly is.. well, silly. You'll have to requeue a minimum of 5 times to get a match where you are not haunted by idle bots. These bots could be dealt with SO EASY, just remove time-based reward system to a performance reward system. I can't believe they thought that was a good idea...

    On a positive note... It's buggy, clunky and not even slightly reworked combat system from battlefront makes it justified to stick a fork in an electric socket and idle for the rest of the match because of the symptom of being dead.

    Galactic Conquest: It's one-sided like in Battlefront. Nothing has changed. It's still, "Protect the Walkers" which is fun for a few runs. But then you always notice that there is 9/10 times one overly dominant team, and if you're not on that team, you'll exercise your rights to die a lot. Add to it the cards that get quite OP at a very high rarity level which will punish the crap out of new players, the amount of fun will be limited.

    I will not try to be forgiving to EA. They've had plenty of chances to redeem themselves from disgusting business practices and failed to do so every time. I just hope I get to enjoy watching their stocks a while longer.

    Multiplayer wise, you will see that the star card system is actually pretty unfair and pretty obvious that they will turn microtransactions soon as a result. Its luck (like gambling) what you get and dont get, so its pure luck (and money) that someone might be more powerful than you, and not because they are better ot put more effort into it, or whatever. Pretty **** from EA overall on a game that had so much potential, even more so considering they already **** it up with the "first" one.

    Oh, I've been waiting for a long time to do this.

    -- Demos! --

    Remember when demos were free and not behind a PAID subscription service? I 'member! I don't even have to go that far back (even though I used to play games during Shareware era), I'm just gonna give an example from a relatively recent indie game, The Talos Principle. This game has an FREE demo and it's advised you play it before you play the main game, simply because it has its own unique story and it ties into the main game.

    Now that we've seen how demos SHOULD BE, let's talk about EA's approach to demos.

    They make you download the full game (50+ gigs), limit you to 10 hours, (and this is the kicker) put it behind a subscription service. 5€ to try a game for 10 hours. Now if you ask EA, they'll claim that "but you don't get to play a demo only, you get to play our entire (ancient) game library for a MONTH!" and yeah, that's a valid argument.

    But what if you don't care about any of those games? I was talking to a friend (who somehow works in IT but doesn't even know the CPU in his computer) and when I told him "I just paid 5€ to play a demo", he replied back with the same argument above. I asked him if he played ANY of the games that came with Origin Access and he said no. I simply told him "then you paid 5€ to play a demo".

    He couldn't say a thing.

    -- Singleplayer Campaign--

    Okay, I wrote three paragraphs about single player but due to 5000 char limit (because I need to talk about multiplayer) I have to keep this short. All I'm gonna say that it's a short, linear, half-ass attempt at making a campaign just so people wouldn't go "it doesn't even have a single player campaign". Skip.

    -- Multiplayer --

    Time to address the elephant in the room. So I paid 5€ to test out this game and started playing with the same guy I mentioned above. We played a couple of galactic assault matches and I unlocked the first weapon for assault. Then we kept playing and I noticed that my assault class wasn't leveling up. I asked him about this and he told me:

    By playing the class, you only unlock weapons and mods for that class. If you want to level a specific class, you need to unlock boxes and hope that you get cards for the class you actually want to play. In a 60€ game mind you, not a Free-to-Play game. 80€ if you go for the digital premium deluxe whatever it's called edition.

    At this point, my mind was made. I was gonna skip this game. Then Reddit stuff happened and in a desperate move at calming people down, EA had to disable microtransactions at launch. Seeing EA back down gave me a bit of hope and I decided to give this game a chance (mistakes were made). I thought to myself "maybe because of this uproar, they'll fix this garbage progression system and be a decent company for once".

    Disabling MTX on launch showed how the progression system was actually designed. It was a grindy mess (and it still is). You'd earn 200-300 credits per match and when you considered the cost of a Trooper crate, it became apparent that this game was designed to milk people who don't have time. But this isn't the most frustrating part.

    So this game has three types of loot boxes. Trooper (4000 credits), Starfighter (3000) and Hero crates (2200, not 2000 because EA). The most annoying part is that these crates have a chance to drop cards from other crates. Let's say you got a Trooper crate and out of 3 cards (maybe 4 if the game feels generous that day), only one of them is Trooper related. Rest is either Starfighter or Hero cards (which has their own crates btw) or fillers like emotes and victory poses. Not to mention, there's a BIG chance of getting duplicates (which pays minute amounts of credits instead of crafting parts). That's why I started getting Hero crates only at one point but EA realized this and nerfed Hero boxes with the 2nd patch.

    To level up classes you can buy loot boxes or you can spend crafting parts you earn from these boxes (or by completing grindy challenges). So every card has 4 levels. The first level requires 40 crafting parts. Second is 80, Third is 180 and 4th level costs, I kid you not, 480 crafting parts. But that's not enough for EA. No. In order to be able to craft level 4 cards, you need to level up that class to level 20. And that means you need to spend your non-existent crafting parts to cards that you're not even going to use.

    All of the problems I mentioned above leads to one thing. Money farmers. Every game mode has at least one money farmer. They ruin the game especially if you're playing a 8v8 mod like Heroes vs Villians. Because of these people, the only mod i care about is dead after a month.

    We're two major patches in and it is apparent that EA won't be changing this system. That's why I uninstalled the game today and wrote this review.

    EA and his abusive politics strikes again; This company see us like wallet with legs and they don't care about the consumer in fact this game is a cash grab build up in micro transactions scheme.

    Graphics are beautiful, but this is not a game. It's a grind feast. Horrible game mechanics all centered around the casino loot box system that was pulled at the last minute. The downloadable content is a joke. Save your money. Don't give it to this company. They did the Star Wars franchise a huge disservice.

    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]
